They can’t, and that’s why this was a patent case. And they certainly can be patented.

One of the most delicious food I’ve ever eaten was this meat stew my grandfather made with oxtail and tongue.
The meat was some of the most horrible stuff I’ve ever put in my mouth, but the vegetables and the stock was absolutely heavenly.

In this case a headcount before leaving could kinda have been feasible as the ship only had 120 passengers - often it isn’t simply because modern cruise ships tend to be massive and have way too many passengers to keep track of - but from what I could understand they had an electronic system in place and for some reason she either wasn’t marked as having left, or had somehow been mistakingly marked as returned.

She was noticed as missing when they did do a “headcount”, during the evening dinner.

Gotta keep the investor money flowing.

“Trust me bro, I know x didn’t work but y will, give me a few more billions bro, AI will make us rich bro”

And fittingly, both of those categories are pretty much a perfectly overlapping venn diagram because they are so overarchingly vague.
Drinking water can kill you, and if it’s too hot, it causes cancer.

Therefore “drinking water” is something that can be found it both lists. And so is “not drinking water”.

It’s also the worlds most addictive chemical, and alarmingly nobody addicted to dihydrogen monoxide has ever been able to overcome that addiction, every dihydrogen monoxide addict dies with a 100% certainty within a few weeks if they stop taking it.

There actually is one under development.

And also one already on steam but it’s from a russian dev team, so…

A single raspberry pi that draws maybe 3 watts, and fraction of a watt standby draw per device?

Also, 10w draw for a year is 87kWh. And you probably have more than just one light in your house.

If they are my cats, choose the dark one because the white doesn’t want to play, he just wants food, and will literally do this if I try.

That’s how you end up with Horizon Forbidden West having 3500 credits, because you credit every single employee of every single company and division that even looked at the game for those five seconds.

That also is kinda problematic, because now your contribution is buried in the names of all of your coworkers who didn’t work on the game, so were you then properly credited?

“Battlefield 6, made by {list of every single person currently employed by EA}”

Yup. Exactly what happened with @x and @music.

Takes time to switch. Normally these things would be done sensibly and with enough time allocated for the changeover, not by an executive order that’s active immediately and may or may not actually be something the president even has authority to do.

The US federal government by law has to follow what names the United States Board on Geographic Names tells them to, and the executive order demanded they change it. He could have changed it to the Gulf of the King Donald Trump That Had Absolutely Nothing To Do With Epstein Honest, and that would officially be the name for it every US federal employee would have to use.

Nobody else has to use it though, but most companies follow what each local government says to not have issues with borders and stuff.

Hmmh, could be, though both are “from the factory”, the winter/summer tires are slightly different sizes. But the allowed error in the EU overall (or at lesst in Finland) is 10% +4km/h, so it’s still well withing “spec”.

Prince of being the child of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

Andrew still retains the title “prince,” bestowed on him at birth as the son of the then reigning monarch.

If it didn’t, it would be pretty damn annoying as cars always show higher than actual speed. I’ve had to set our BMW to do +8km/h so that it actually does 120km/h on GPS and not 112.

If they are built to spec, then it should be trivial for the manufacturers to make a legal version for those who want one, no? They could still keep selling the other version too, it would literally be the same vehicle after all, one would just have the required papers.

Because they are illegal mopeds. Manufacturing them is cheaper when they don’t have to use money to pass any of the safety regulations and requirements of actual mopeds.

You can’t really detect “TV signals”, but you can quite easily detect the 10.125 kHz horizontal line-scanning deflection coil of a CRT. Though I’m fairly sure even if they did originally start effective back in the 1950’s because people had very few elecronic devices around, actually detecting anything accurately must have been increasingly difficult as time went on, and a lot of the newer models must have been more about being a scare tactic.

Dammit president Madagascar, you were supposed to shut down everything, not flee.
