The other thing I find striking here is the lengths to which the various power players involved seem to be going to protect Ezra Miller. They’re not Brad Pitt famous or Cate Blanchett talented or Tom Hanks beloved — how many rank and file Americans are even familiar with Ezra Miller? Is America suffering from a bad…

Oh, what, so Issa Rae thinks she’s Better than Ezra?!

Hyundai does actually make nice cars, but their dealer network and now, apparently, their post-sale support sucks.

Max was going to win the title either way. Whether it’s in Japan or US or Mexico. Might as well do it in Japan. 

I feel like they signed those waivers under the assumption that the venue was providing a safe environment that was up to basic safety standards. From my understanding, foam pits used in gymnastics or similar venues need a minimum of 4' and a padded floor mat under it.

Even with those waivers in place, a lawyer and argue that the plaintiff assumed reasonable safety parameters were put in place before participating and clearly that shallow “pit” was anything but reasonably safe.

Looks like both!

Every conversation I’ve ever had with a lawyer about those waivers is that they’re basically worthless if you have a lawyer who’s at least minimally competent.

Depends on the language of the waivers, and there are things that a waiver cannot actually waive.

I hope they bleed them for all they’re worth. fuckers.

I smell multiple lawsuits incoming.

I remember when one of the big selling points of the 10-series NVidia GPUs was not only increased performance graphically, but also reduced power consumption at the same time. Now they’ve basically just said “fuck it” on efficiency just to pump out bigger numbers. 

Take your business elsewhere or whatever but DO NOT hassle the frontline staff over this. They have no say in the matter and only have another new burden to bear. Literally people, this is why we can’t have nice things.

The rona has passed over, those that are going to be vaccinated have gotten the shot. Its time to come outside again friend. you did you job, its time to relax.

Unfortunately this is hardly the first instance of YouTube’s bizarre content restriction decisions. The stuff that somehow flies under their radar - even on (maybe especially on) YouTube Kids - while they drop age restrictions that they triple down on for a goddamn Mega Man 2 speedrunning documentary (which I have…

He didn’t. It’s a clip used in a documentary / informative format.

Technically Tetris was part indie part government property.

You sound like the type of inhuman monster that would be perfectly okay with slavery being reinstituted. 

The distinction is understood, the argument is that the distinction is stupid.

On a fundamental level a person should have ownership of their likeness.

The tattoo is a part of the person’s body and a generally recognized distinctive feature.

The 3D model is a representation of the actor made in his likeness, and that…

As much as I want to cook with lentils more, I’m always terrified that I’ll undercook them without realizing it.
