    It’s effectively a sentient weapon that will attack people.

    Well, yes, that's the point. But not specifically people, but any animal coming into the territory, like wolves, coyotes, or foxes, that might kill livestock.

    There are certainly real-life analogues. Pearls and ambergris, for example. I can't think of any official material about it off the top of my head, but your table, your rules!

    Yes, it's surprising when a loss leader leads to losses. For example, Olive Garden and their soup, salad, and bread sticks are probably loss leaders because of how cheap they are, but they make up that little loss with much better margins on entrees (and, I assume, drinks).

    I would not, and I'm not sure why. Maybe because I differentiate between living and nonliving things for some reason? I would say the lions' cage, for example. Actually, unless I was contrasting it, I would say "the lion cage", regardless of the number of lions it houses, but that might just be a fixed expression in English regarding zoos and such. I would not say dry goods' pantry or pants' drawer.

    The Constitutional protection from double jeopardy does not apply across jurisdictions. You can be tried in state and federal court for the same act, and in military court too, if applicable.

    In practice, this doesn't usually happen, you get tried and convicted in one or the other for a single crime. However, you may be tried for different crimes committed in the same act, for example by committing a hate crime, you may be charged by the state government for the act, plus a federal civil rights charge.

    And then the court martial will probably say "yeah you've already been convicted and you're going to civilian jail, here's your dishonorable discharge, get the fuck out". Unless you did something really messed up and the military wants their pound of flesh too.

    Even the slowest SSD write speeds should be faster than an HDD, and those have been running systems perfectly fine for decades. I've never used enterprise SSDs (usually one little consumer SSD, or even USB, for boot/cache and a bunch of HDDs for storage) and I've never had a problem.

    What kind of hardware are you using?

    I hope there are consequences for the people that decided to install crossties that were known to be defective, some kind of civil or criminal liability. I also hope that the GLX contractors were required to post some kind of warranty bond, because they're definitely going to try to wriggle their way out of fixing their fuckup.

    I had vote buttons on the left in dense post view. Then I went fiddling with the view settings and they disappeared after changing views, and I don't see which option brings them back. Am I just an idiot and can't see it?

    Patrick Mendoza was arrested on Friday of last week, just over a week after police said he allegedly tried to shoot a man outside Modern Pastry on Hanover Street.

    Just as the title says. I tap it, nothing happens. Tried on a bunch of different comments. The FAB to add a top-level comment still works though. I don't see any update in the Play store, and no change when I cleared storage for the app.

    I'm mostly concerned about https://lemmy.world/c/newhampshire because I'm from there, but they're on a range of location and interest communities. Where's the line for community mod-squatting?

    Electrical arc from the third rail caused a small fire on the track and delays between noon and 2 PM. No, the trains themselves didn't catch fire (this time).

    I'm all for reforming our current work system, but we need organized action. Can we make that happen here? Or is there a different community for that?

    There's a lot of stuff I don't really care about. I'd like to see just what I'm subscribed to.
