No, because it’s known that’s sales tax will be added. It’s not like it’s hard to look up what the sales tax rate is in any given locality, and if you don’t care to look it up, just assume it’ll be 10% or less. We may not like it, but it’s not deceptive. It’s deceptive when the base price is altered from the displayed price on the shelf or in published ads.

Yeah, they’ve left us alone so far because we’re small potatoes. It’s only a matter of time.

There are probably some, but the only anti vax person I personally know is cool with acupuncture. It’s not fear of needles, it’s lack of fear of how horrific these diseases are. They also were a covid denier, so that also says a lot.

Judging by the moon landing pictures, most surfaces on the moon are roughly flat especially in the dusty areas.

The games are also a bit inconsistent about what happens when the surface moves. Sometimes the portal fizzles out, and on rare occasions it doesn’t.

I think it’s a stretch of the prompt, but someone else said the deathstar. If that’s allowed I’d take the SDF1 itself. But really it’s for that main reflex canon. In the Robotech TTRPG the stats for the main gun was something like “destroys everything in its 1 mile wide path for 10,000 miles” no defense measures work.

Nah, huge limitation that it only works on walls painted with moon dust. Even without that detail, the surface needs to be flat and judging by the main characters height, roughly 1m x 2m. Those details really limit its functionality outside the enrichment center.

It’s a little more complex than that. But if you want to encrypt, and you do want your site traffic encrypted, you use site certificate to give the client browser proof that you are who you say you are. You do this by establishing a chain of trust: “I got this proof that I am who I say I am from this major trusted certificate authority” you trust them and they trust me, so we’re all good. You’ve probably seen the warning that a site isn’t secure, and that’s because they let their certificate of trust expire.

This low entropy key means it’s trivial for me to fake that I have that major authority’s trust. The browser needs to be updated to no longer trust that authority. Until it does I can easily fake being anyone and say that compromised site vouches for me. I don’t even need to be a man in the middle, I just need to set up a way that your browser sends you to my fake server instead of the real one. Lots of ways to do that.

Conscription is bullshit. If your war is so unpopular to your people that they aren’t volunteering, then you shouldn’t be at war.

I agree that the wooden spoon thing is horse shit. Never once seen it work. The oil in the water does work for me. Now I know that many things may affect this. If you crank your stove up to eleven, maybe nothing will help. Maybe your altitude will affect it in some way. I live at about 350m above sea level. What I can say for sure is that in a large pot of water, at a rolling boil on my stove, about 3 tablespoons of oil in the water and a full pack of pasta, my pot will not boil over, but it absolutely will if I don’t add the oil.

It changes the surface tension and keeps the pot from boiling over. Very useful if you’re also preparing a couple other dishes.

Yeah, indicators are indicating. Things they don’t seem to talk about. Used car lots are empty while new car lots are full. The tourist restaurants no longer have waiting lists. Gaming is a luxury expense, as in we don’t need it to survive, while new game prices are higher than they’ve ever been. I’m willing to bet most if not all luxury spending is down.

Prices are high and companies decided shitty AI is better than good people. So jobs are getting scarcer or paying less.

In the words of my kids: we’re cooked fam.
