I recently watched "Brief history of the Wrong Earths" by Hardcore Sci-Fi, not many of these are well known so you could have so much more ammunition for fooling around like that with people.

I would have screamed "do your own research!" before just leaving.

Shit like concord somehow gets released, and yet stuff like Project Dragon gets scrapped even though it was weeks from announcement and 3 months from alpha release (if I remember correctly)

Reading the part of this article about London being paralysed by tube workers I could only think about the Crowdstrike shutting down millions of systems and yet, life went on as if it didn't even happen unless you were yourself affected

That women had an EpiPen, imagine yourself having an allergy, making sure to inform the staff at a restaurant multiple times that you have an allergy, bringing an EpiPen with you just in case, and then as you struggle to breathe you use the EpiPen and yet it doesn't help.

This has to be so terrifying, to struggle to breathe when you know you did everything you could to prevent this.

Those lawyers probably earn more in a month than the man could ever get from this lawsuit.

I really hope you're right

Yea that's bloody ridiculous, especially since that guy signed up for that in 2019. Dude agreed to a TOS half a decade ago and now can't even try to get compensation for the loss of his wife. How is this in any way acceptable?

Agreed, this is such bullshit.

Forced arbitration is in my opinion already a bullshit thing, but saying that the TOS of your streaming service applies to your resorts, parks and restaurants is something so dystopian that I can't believe this even could have been stated seriously.

The consequences of the result of this lawsuit are going to be fucking ridiculous.

Pretty sure that iso standard of yours specifies using what you call military time, or 24 hour time system, which USA doesn't use widely, so even they don't use this standard

I propose that during a 113 day period we have exactly 355 pi days. That would be an avrage of 3,14159 pi days per year
