Damn, and I looked at it and thought: it’s shorter than a tiny woman and the seats are near vertical …. I wonder if it would fit an average adult outside of Korea, let alone someone even a little big or tall.

If that’s true, then they shouldn’t be planning that music at that volume or at all while driving

Agreed, and it’s not necessarily something big or sudden. Over the years I’ve become more likely to hire someone to care for my yard, more likely to use the AC, more likely to not watch my spending at a restaurant. More likely to go overboard at Costco. I get a better cut of meat, more expensive beer, etc. these are all little niceties I can afford, but they add up to a much more expensive lifestyle that always seems to rise with my income

When I was a teenager at one point I had a waterbed and left the heat off. While not the same thing, it was effective at stealing body heat. I have no idea whether it was a good idea though

A live feed of people at the beach would also be not safe for work. I’m certainly not offended by it, but it’s inappropriate for the work environment

She was set up to increase her visibility, position her as a next candidate, but does not seem to have benefited from the opportunity

Right, copyright was meant to give a profit incentive to creators, but the effectively infinite copyright we have now mainly gives profit incentive to large companies who can horde creative works, like Paramount+ in the above case.

It’s breaking the original compact where we give temporary exclusivity at the reward of more creation. Now it’s effectively permanent exclusivity, with creativity locked up by which obese monster can sit on the biggest hoard of treasure

There’s got to be a better headline - the sword’s name and legend looks just as compelling as Excalibur even if not as well known (outside France)
