They are abandoned, judging by the “a dog is not just for Christmas” ads. I think it’s the well funded charities like Battersea Cats and Dogs Home, who can collect them, and a reasonably strong culture for looking for a dog at these shelters before a breeder.

What is heft in this context?

It is the most democratic situation. Companies can decide between a leave that market, b treat the whole world by the strictest laws or c only follow those laws for those residents. If the cheapest solution is b, and capitalism demands the cheapest solution, then that’s useful information for the shareholders to choose a path. Just because we know what they will always choose doesn’t make it undemocratic.

The risk matrix for US-Russia nuclear war might not be higher than the climate crisis. We have estimates for the actual death toll of the latter, making it higher than certain.

I don’t think the covid response initiated it, only made it worse/more inescapable to the west.

Some of the supermarkets who have made a sale-leaseback agreements are owned by hedge funds looking for a short term deal. Morrisons are, Waitrose aren’t, Sainsburys are a bit of both. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/dec/09/morrisons-o...

It told me I did five levels in five attempts but it was more than that.

“We refer you to the reply given in the case of Arkell v. Pressdram.” is one short alternative.

Musk also has citizenship of Canada and South Africa. It does matter in security clearances, but I don’t know how firm that rule is.

Does the amount of foreign founders and funders make a difference here? I imagine it’s grown.

There’s a lot of inventions to award people for. Some of the other recipients look overdue by the time it came to them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_Award

Brass does, but the oxide layer that forms quickly does not.

> I think they set up a special protocol with Visa and Mastercard to allow this.

Yes, called Contactless Transit Framework. https://www.ukfinance.org.uk/policy-and-guidance/reports-pub...

Which military based in Australia do you think helped by supplying this?

I suspect I’ll move to a server more capable in these ways, as I want to know what’s most discussed with or without tags.

How would the judge’s order update the website?

Is that a third world countries issue? I’ve heard of it in the UK, there are a lot of comments on this page about it in the US. Your point about livestock is good, but that is definitely happening in the UK and US.

I don't consider myself a humanist, but I accept that my views are similar to them. I think humanism only exists because the way Christianity has been promoted recently forced the alternative to have a graspable answer rather than "I'm a good person for my own preference".

UsefulChart's video on humanism may help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWhz3SXPWkg

Humanism fills that need. It doesn’t matter that it’s new, Islam and Christianity were new once, and corrupted since.

That may be the written policy, but there were widespread reports of mastodon ('s largest sites) being considered too harmful a link to be put in a twitter bio. https://www.theverge.com/2022/12/15/23512113/twitter-blockin...

I don't see PG reacting to that news on twitter. Is there a reaction anywhere?

I reject the idea that I'm burying my head in the sand, if that's your reaction to my post. I'm wary of expanding on it on HN. The short version is that there were genuine policy reasons to dislike him (even from a POV left of Blair), overwhelmed by the media and the Labour party disinformation. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-62226042

Do you know who the article is saying should try harder?

Yes, I missed out the bit where that 3% difference in vote lead to a 93 (out of 650) difference in seats.

I don’t think overwhelming is the right word, his vote share was around Blair’s average.

Now that half of Tory MPs have been cabinet members, it’s harder to demand loyalty by dangling a job for votes. Especially the ministerial roles that the public are aware of.

The article seems to be avoiding the term "lame duck period". It reads an excessively selective set of opinions, and it's unclear who should be trying harder.

AppStore apps are sandboxed almost the same as on iOS.

I had Mastodoubt, torn between not mastodon.social because it’s going to be too big and internetofshit’s server because that’s silly and small. I read that a searcher will only see you if there’s already a connection between their server and yours. I went with mastodon.world.

Next: find an appealing mobile app.

If I understand correctly, this was in federal court and they don’t do early release.

Does Granny Smith redeem itself when baked? We have an apple tree we vaguely name as cooking apples, and it’s nearly finished for the season. Stewed apple may be better than the top of this ranking. Are there many podcasts that talk about this? There was one that liked the cosmic crisp, but moved onto baseball and Icy Hot without trying other variants.

The factory and strike recently gained a heritage blue plaque. https://diamondgeezer.blogspot.com/2022/07/the-match-girls-b...

I have the following in my .bash_profile for this purpose.

For a few years we’ve had ripped from the headlines stories with bits cut out to make it believable. The tv writers say they can’t write realistic bad people who do all of the things real world bad people do. I think The Good Wife writers were one of the first to point this out.

The UK, where WhatsApp is standard, has iOS in the lead. Radio1 now just give their WhatsApp number and not the sms option. Wealth/affordability are relevant.
