Right? At best their argument is "I was too stupid to make the right decision for myself therefore no one should be able to make the decision for themselves"

Remember when Sony laid off a ton of Bungie employees? Talk about a series of bad decisions.

At least they're giving refunds.

Nah, seems to be an episode of The Boys with a mute character who uses sign language. So she signs i"I hate you" in a scene and it gets subtitled. But it doesn't use the normal CC code as it's a special case. And the code is buggy so it's really easy for the subtitle to not clear off the screen and since it isn't the normal subtitle/CC system it can't be controlled that way. Fun times!

Article says that it's basically the equivalent of getting an image of a bottle cap on the surface of the moon from earth. At that kind of resolution the wavelength of light actually becomes a limiting factor. They're using shorter wavelengths to get higher resolution.

The Fifth Element. I had NO idea what the movie was about when my cousin brought me to the theater. My nerd brain was like, "Is this a quest to find boron or something?" Became one of my all-time favorite movies.

They have this weird idea that life is a zero sum game so that if someone else gains something, they will lose something. Republicans usually dig into this with fear-mongering about how Democrats want them to pay for abortions and Trans-gender surgeries or how their Healthcare will be worse.

Hate to be that guy but they never were and shouldn't be used for bullet wounds. They were originally made to stop minor bleeding, though.

I know exactly. I started getting into music creation with a DAW and wanted a good drums plugin. Toontrack Superior Drums claims to be the industry standard but I couldn't use their trial without a credit card. Addictive Drums 2, their closest competitor, actually had a free trial. Guess which one I ended up buying after trying it out for a couple months?
