I love that expression : “sabotage by bad actors”. Is Matthew McConaughey so ashamed of their latest film they don’t want Finland to see it? Has there ever been a sabotage done by good actors? Like did Gary Oldman do the Gazprom one? Do you imagine the bad actors as angry people in balaclavas and black overalls, or as mustache twirling, cat stroking bond villains?

You don’t accept it, because that’s bullshit. You also don’t accept that it’s somehow your fault that society (and your employer) is okay with that kind of injustice.

I think there are two sane choices, you named one that’s really a good idea cause you do not have to take that shit.

The other one would be sharing this situation with other nurses, forming a union or joining one, and going on strike. Letting the hospital see how well it functions when only those lazy doctors doing 1% of the necessary work and getting 2 thirds of the cake show up.

Everybody here is saying talking about “bad experiences with GPS”. You guys have bad experiences with shitty navigation software ; the GPS is innocent. The GPS is nice and beautiful, and it’s the first ever technology to use quantum physics, special AND general relativity at the same time.

I actually heard something about that in class not long ago

The story is that Android’s security heavily relies on the compartmentalization of apps that lives in the android layer, over the Linux kernel. Apparently, that functionality works in part because only this layer can perform operations that require root access, no app or user can. So software that allows you to root your phone apparently breaks this requirement, and makes the whole OS insecure. He even heavily implied that one should never root their phone with ‘free’ software found on the internet because that was usually a front for some nefarious shit regarding your data.

I’m just parroting a half-understood and half-remebered speech from a security expert. His credentials were impressive but I have no ability to judge that critically, if anyone knows more about this feel free to correct me.

There’s actually a bunch

Thankfully I can ignore this detail by the power of Our Lady of Chaos and Discord, Hail Eris.

Ampersands. I thought it was just me but apparently not

Edit: works fine incomments, but I keep seeing them replaced with “&” in titles.

I didn’t know they were purely atheistic. I though it was religious, but subverting the christian interpretation of the bible so that Lucifer/Satan would actually be the good guy, written about by unreliable narrators.

I even had a whole circular theory about it. Like, Lucifer being the angel that brings the light of reason, and the serpent who argue that humans should, in fact, know right from wrong… and who would have been cast out for rebelling against a malevolent god who thinks wanting to use reason to determine and enact justice rather than blindly take it on “faith” that the unfair natural law is part of an inherently good yet unscrutable “plan” is an unforgivable sin of pride worthy of eternal damnation… A malevolent creator who’d have used this ‘faith’ flaw in our brains to build an army of authoritarian followers, and manipulated the narrative to systematically assassinate the character of an “adversary” that is actually our best ally in any struggle for self-determination and justice against the oppressor.

I read waaaaaay too much into the name. Now I’m actually a bit disappointed.

Edit: wait am I thinking of another form of satanism?

Edit2 : nevermind, apparently I’m describing a blend of Luciferianism and the Church of Satan. Imma take whatever appeals to me, add a bit of discordianism to make the incompatible bits stick together better and I think that’s gonna be my religion for a while.

Edit3: apparently it gets me even closer to the Our Lady of Endor Coven.

The thing is the motion to be tried as an adult comes before the trial, so it comes before you ascertain anything about motivations, intent, psychological expertise…

I think this whole thing goes with the whole drinking, enlisting in the army, voting… You guys have a legal definition of childhood that’s way fuzzier that I’m used to. In my head, a motivation isn’t mature or not intrinsically, it’s mature or not depending on who has it : if it’s a child it’s not, if it’s an adult it should be so it’s considered as such.

I guess having a hard limit on the eighteenth birthday is weird in its own right… Maybe it’s because I’m old but in my head it should be fuzzy in the other direction: 18 year olds are definitely still kids in most aspects and should get a chance to be tried as children.

Oh good!

Alright then, I guess it’s a bit less cruel with decades or life in prison.

Still an unfathomable decision to me but at least they’re not angling for an infanticide

Why though ? They’re not an adult, and rape is depressingly common in children.

Edit: maybe instead I should focus on the core absurdity of it all: isn’t saying “a 17 year old rapist should be tried as an adult” the same as saying “the laws concerning rape in children 17 and above should be the same as the laws concerning adult rapists”?

Because in this second case you ensure that all children be given the same rights under the law and you get the same severity for 17 year olds for crimes you decide warrant it, rather than a shoddy “hmmm I think this crime is heinous enough to preemptively strip this person from their rights before we even decide on guilt and stuff and maybe the judge will agree”.

Alright I can see how culturally you end up going in that direction.

Still, though, I can’t fathom someone being smart enough to go through all that education to become a state prosecutor, then seeing a terrible story about a kid have access to a gun when they clearly shouldn’t and killing their own mother through sheer childish stupidity and then coming to the conclusion that “you know what would reestablish justice in this situation? Injecting poison into that kid and watching him die.”

Who’s that person? What happened in their life to make them think like that?

Wow, you guys must have a very shallow understanding of what “childhood” and “justice” mean if the culprit being less responsible for their actions make the case more ironclad.

Edit: nvm I’ve looked at your profile after seeing some of your unhinged comments here ; I now fully believe you are eleven yourself and under the delusion that you are, in fact, an adult.

It still doesn’t tbh. The concept of an “adult crime” is baffling to me.

Of course, if there weren’t any problems people would already be trying to build that shit.

Negative gravitational mass is still a theoretical possibility: nothing’s ever proven Einstein’s equivalence principle. It could be broken for antimatter for example, which could even conveniently explain why there’s so little of it (I remember reading that this hypothesis was investigated not long ago but we can’t produce and conserve enough antimatter to reliably test that mg=mi)

The second problem isn’t an issue if you use it in the vacuum and start and end your trip with classical propulsion.

In fact, the hardest hurdle I’d read on that subject was that with the most efficient warp metrics currently known, you’d still need something like 10^60J for a small spaceship or something ridiculous like that… Orders of magnitude more energy than the mass of the whole solar system.

Which is why I said it was kind of a fringe answer. The fact that physics don’t just flat out say “no” is already kind of amazing, which isn’t to say that it’s definitely possible.

One that’s on the fringe of what you’re asking is warp drives. Right now it looks like you need ridiculous amount of energy and matter that may or may not exist… But General Relativity is okay with it on principle at least

I don’t understand the US thing about trying children as adults. The whole thing about children is that they’re not adults, what’s the point of having specific laws to protect children if you’re just going to ignore them? What possible argument could there be that a 11 year old is an adult?

You know we’re fucked when a title like that isn’t even on nottheonion. We may have entered a"not ‘not the onion’" era

Seeing what’s been already recommended here, my suggestion sounds out of left field even to me… But somehow, “Elden Ring bug easier” makes me think first and foremost of Zelda breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom. Huge open world with secrets everywhere, engaging aesthetics and, challenging yet less punitive combat. The only thing would be that the combat is less emphasized, an exploration and problem solving more. But combat is still very much there and you can go quite deep in its mechanics, especially with all the time stopping and telekinetic shenanigans.

Edit: Not really a western ARPG I guess but the freedom of play is similar
