Elevators need a decent amount of surrounding space for cabling and for the counterweight. That all needs to be completely touch-proofed so people don’t lose hands.
The running rails etc. also have structural rigidity requirements. Bolting straight onto concrete slab works best and there’s not enough concrete here.
Fire stairwells often can’t have anything put on them that could risk starting a fire, elevators included.
Things that are uncommon and exceptional on a small scale can be entirely predicable and routine on a large scale.
Car crashes are rare for individuals and might fuck up your whole month/year/decade.
Talk to EMS and they might not even remember it; they’re that common.
Same goes for evil.


That is sort of what sponsored segments are, and what sponsorblock is quite effective at dealing with.
If they’re injected on the fly at variable time points, it gets harder, but I suspect fingerprinting could work well enough.


TVs often do a bad job at switching on when the computer turns on, then off when it turns off/goes to sleep. Drives me spare. That was fixed in like 1995-2000 for normal monitors.


The article seems to be focussing on the “making bad decisions” aspect - i.e. “don’t use it for anything important”.
I wonder if this is also an attempt to limit IP liability in case someone claims that copilot reproduced copyrighted/patented material?
Obviously entertainment is also full of copyrighted material but the payouts aren’t usually quite as big as patent claims.
Point; I meant to include that one. Is also green like mum but wearing a hoody.
Entirely plausible.
Slightly differs from the actual comic, though.
“Give birth to Spring itself” and “hang on, Spring” vs “give birth to an actual living god - my son Darren here”
And ends with TEENAGE BOY: MUUUUM


Most of the current plans for wealth taxes start in the region of $5-$50 million, taxing wealth above that bracket (like other progressive taxes). Do you expect to save $5 million, let alone $50 million? If not, you won’t pay any wealth tax.
Many plans also exclude your ‘family house’ from that, so you could have a $3m house and $4m in the bank and still pay no wealth tax - you’re rich, but not filthy rich.
Most of the seriously proposed tax rates are also in the 1-3% range, maybe 5% on the very high end. Again, of wealth above that threshold.
There is also some argument about hoarding that $200k (again, more like $20m) you saved rather than using it. If you spend it eating out, drinking, getting your house renovated, flying somewhere - then you end up paying tax and spending money and there’s some trickle down. If it sits in a bank account or in stocks or real estate, less so.



The ping is a bit meh. I need to figure out how to get the 4G card in my laptop to work on linux.
This is capped at 50Mb/s to be a bit cheaper.


One of the big arguments is to tax wealth, not just income.


I expect so.
KDE Connect also works great as a remote control for many things, presumably including this.
PCs have almost never supported CEC. PCs use a different signalling method to indicate to the monitor that they’re on/off.
