Most of the free roaming part of the game doesn't seem to make much use of this though; all the solar systems are effectively flat, space stations don't have a distinct up or down, granted, but you don't need to fly through tunnels etc.

The pvp mode (Arena?) does offer loads of use for that aspect of it though. But, I could never get on with the combat style, it feels like you spend a lot of time turning your nose to try and get aligned with your target. That may be me failing at it though, but trying to maneuver away to turn around means the enemies are on my tail.

I rarely go to Casinos, but usually go in with $20, if I lose it, that's basically it for me. I can't imagine justifying throwing more money after losing it all, only in video games where gambling is allowed.

You can tell it’s a joke because they stated their intent to keep quiet, but didn’t. The humor comes from the surprising difference between what was stated, and reality.

AFAIK there is no tax importing or exporting gold into or out of the US. You just have to declare it. Which might trigger an investigation of where the gold came from and if the gold is part of a criminal enterprise.
How is it accurate? If you have $10M worth of gold in country A and want to get it into country B without paying the 10% import tax, how does Bitcoin help?
There is even a theory about a mini black hole in our solar system pulling Uranus.
Several trends exist already actually that might qualify as "temperance" movements.

In mainstream culture, it appears that Generation Z consumes less alcohol compared to earlier generations (although they might be substituting it with other intoxicants).

More niche but still present are the peculiar trends associated with right-wing groups, 'nofap' and similar movements.

If you're referring specifically to a movement involving spending money, I agree and anticipate that emerging as well, probably merging with one of the above two.
Agreed. It should have been a period or or at least a semicolon before "however":

In any case, I think the author really meant "although."

I'm often seen as the more successful and stable member of friend groups. The number of people that come to me talking about their puts, calls, crypto, and other high risk investment play is way to high. I always tell them "I invest long, so I don't know anything about that" and try to steer them towards more predictable investment options. No matter how many people I point to real estate deals they could feasibly get into, and talk about how much I've made on real estate, not one of these people have gone down that route. In the way they talk, they actually want to gamble and don't want to grow wealth. I think it might also be the marshmallow experiment, because they also don't want to discuss any play that I measure in years.

I'm seeing this in more demographics than just young male. I was looking into a business plan and talking to a trusted boomer about the business plan. They have more experience in some specific aspects, and I was looking to identify more risks. Towards the end of the conversation they told me "of course, I was never a gambler", to which I replay "neither am I, that's why I'm talking to you and doing my homework."

Someone out there has the Tribes 1 source code. The directory listing/dump has been leaked a couple times but never the full code (last time around the "InstantAction" era). I really, really wish it would be. Right now all the Tribes intellectual property is locked up behind "Hirez Games" and they only make microtransaction/pay2win games. "Tribes 3" the recent release is made by employees of this company unfortunately. Not quite a Tribes game.

T2 would be cool too. But nothing tops T1. That said, there's no reason to wait for the source to be leaked to play. http://playt1.com/ has everything you need. The community maintains both the game client and have written multiple custom master servers.

In other words they intend to hurt the reputation of people they don’t like rather than fix problems.

They literally said, the website would not exist but for spite.

That describes these sideline critics well. If you show the devs a vulnerability you don’t think they will fix it?

The key (and way easier said then done) is to take a small amount of money out, accept that its likely all going to be gone, and try to milk it slowly so all the free drinks you get are worth the money.

Only time I've ever had an issue is when I manually disconnected power from a Pi 4 when I overreacted to a network outage. I was dumb and thought my Pi's DNS was screwing things up for the whole network, but it turns out that it was just Spectrum screwing things up for the entire region. Fortunately there was only one minor corrupted file, it didn't bork the SD card, and I was able to repair the setup manually.

I've never had any problem as long as I've stuck with the `sudo shutdown` command, which powers down in a controlled manner so writes don't get interrupted. But I've also never had an issue after a power outage, so I think somehow power outage shutdowns are more graceful than just yanking the power cable out.

If you're really concerned, you can always configure your Pi to use a read-only root filesystem. Combine that with a USB SSD to store your _actual_ data and you should be OK indefinitely. Or just boot from that USB SSD -- just remember to configure fstab correctly for your intended behaviour! You might be surprised to discover that fstab can delay a boot indefinitely if mounting expectations do not match reality.
> I find conversations about money with younger generations to be very hostile (btw, I still consider myself young). Accusations, assumptions, and name-calling start circulating quickly if you dare to ask 'the youth of reddit' as it were, if they understand compound interest, how much money they spend on food delivery, vapes, weed, and booze.

I’m not young, and if you tried to start a “conversation about money” with me in this fashion it would go poorly. Perhaps you just aren’t giving a clear picture of these attempted conversations, but you come across as rather condescending in your own post.

You can see the UI for UK's divorce lawyers in this training document[1] pdf. It's not actually that bad, but the payment flow only shows case numbers, not names.

----

However, the headline for this article is a bit misleading. It sounds like the lawyers just divorced a random married couple, and the judge refused to undo it.

But if you go through the article, and put together the clues like a game of Dog Crimes, you get the following sequence of events:

1) The wife hired a speciality divorce law firm.
2) The law firm had already completed all divorce paperwork and uploaded documents into court web system for the wife divorcing the husband.
3) The law firm accidentally selected this "case" to submit and pay for, rather than another intended case.
4) Per UK law the husband would have been officially notified of the completion of the divorce.
5) The wife was not happy about this surprise.
6) The wife's law firm went to court to undo the divorce.
7) The husband hired his own lawyers to keep the divorce.
8) Given that all the paperwork was correct filed, and one member of the couple wanted to keep the divorce the judge let it stand.

Yes, but more importantly, "hard work" is unsustainable on its own, and leads to a burnout.

Is it still ok to say that men take more risks than women in general? Gambling is a risk, so on its face it makes sense that men would gamble more on average.

It is fun though, the casinos especially have gotten very good at making it entertaining. Unless you have an addiction to it there's no inherent difference between spending a $50 on a night out with your friends of losing the same amount at the casino.

The for-life email address was typically a perk given to people who were affiliated with a university when internet was still fairly young (think late 80s and 90s). This was a nice perk, because web-mail was not as common and advanced as it is today. And outside web-mail, email addresses were generally very volatile.

The main reason universities couldn't keep doing this is that they eventually ran out of email addresses. Some may have tried to continue the practice, by adding e.g. some university-specific id to the email address. But this makes the email address much less desirable for using after your graduation. In the meantime, web-mail offerings had become arguably more advanced than whatever the university offered. So it made sense to just discontinue the practice altogether.

I was in the "lucky" batch that got a for-life email address. But it was still an opt-in feature. I.e. when the university decided that the email naming scheme was not sustainable, it asked all alumni if they would be interested to keep their forwarding address or not. Many had already dissociated themselves enough with the university to not take the offer.

Trying to apply "stand your ground" in such a situation almost certainly increases the odds that you will die.

Look, I'm not condoning police violence or immunity. I'm just saying that, as a purely practical matter, if you fear for your life when you interact with police, trying to "stand your ground" does not make you safer. Quite the opposite.

I had a professor once say that when the lottery gets really big, at that point, it's not gambling, it's an investment. But keep it small.

It's interesting the types of people who can walk into a casino like you and I and say OK, $20, that's all I'm spending. We lose that and we say good night. Other people… They say no, I can win this, and so they go and spend another $20.

That decision point - to continue or withdraw - is utterly fascinating.
Even NYT didn't suspend Bari Weiss despite her bringing similar criticisms about NYT.

In all honesty, I never understood the appeal of NPR, and I've been consuming news all the time since I was in elementary school (I even got my elementary school library to get a weekly subscription for The Economist).

I love PBS, but NPR always felt like cultural commentary with no actual in depth reporting. NYT occasionally feels like that as well, but their track record has more than redeemed themselves.

So painful to watch. Folks, just put your money in a stock market index fund. I know that sounds insanely boring - but the magic of compounding is real. I have never been a big saver - but I have been a consistent one - and at 50 I am looking at retiring next year early. This also enabled me to buy a house (stock market is growing faster than housing market).

If there is one piece of advice you take, save early, save consistently, put your savings in index funds (I target my portfolio at 50% VTI, 25% VEA, and 25% VCSH).

While everyone has focused on Apple's power-efficiency on the M series chips, one thing that has been very interesting is how powerful the unified memory model (by having the memory on-package with CPU) with large bandwidth to the memory actually is. Hence a lot of people in the local LLMA community are really going after high-memory Macs.

It's great to see NPUs here with the new Ryzen cores - but I wonder how effective they will be with off-die memory versus the Apple approach.

That said, it's nothing but great to see these capabilities in something other then a expensive NVIDIA card. Local NPUs may really help with edge deploying more conferencing capabilities.

I guess technically this would be selling a service instead of a good.

I was going through the 4 combinations of balanced two-line entries, based on the accounting equation, to show how it helps when thinking through how to record something.

If you get into more than two lines, then yup selling a good would be

+Asset -Asset +Income

or if you include sales tax and son shipping costs:

+Asset -Asset +Liability +Income +Expense

Using an updated accounting equation and negative numbers is a lot more intuitive than credits and debits. In this larger example it tells you:

Cash Asset - COGS Asset - Tax Liability = Sales Income - Shipping Expense

It tells you what types of accounts balance, with a syntax that matches your intuitions: more asset = good, less asset = bad, more expense = bad, less expense = good.

Compound interest is essentially the mind worm we plant to get people to let us spend their money for them. The problem I see with it fundamentally is interest changes the conversation from "there's a thing that needs to get done" to "lets make some money".

There's a lot of pointless/ultimately destructive ways to make money. Precious few to get dpne what needs to get done. And I wholeheartedly believe much of society has forgotten that "what is profittable" != "What needs to be done".

Yes. And this takes many forms, whether that's hanging on to property long past you need it, staying in jobs past retirement, or falsely believing the current economic climate is at all like what it was 30 years ago.

> I find conversations about money with younger generations to be very hostile

I can understand how if you grew up around the tech boom years of the 2010s you can believe that a bit of smart gambling is all it takes to generate wealth. In some sense this article is entirely relatable: I once believed if I worked for the right company I could make enough money on my own to buy myself out of the system entirely. This is a conscientious person's version of the gambling fallacy that the article discusses.

Really, any sufficiently simple path to wealth that doesn't involve the capital class gets patched out by the system relatively quickly (see Wall St's furor over FAANG engineer salaries).
Except that neither human nor satellite distribution is even across the global surface, and we actually tend to put our satellites above the human-populated areas so that they can service those humans.

Including the nigh-unpopulated polar regions would massively skew the probabilities, for instance, especially since most satellites aren't in polar orbits either. It's still an infinitesimally small likelihood of being hit by one, of course.
A Debate over the Physics of Time
I've found a bit more information about the topic in a publicly available research article [1]:

"A depth of only 25 fathoms is quite enough to give some surface indications: coloration, wave phenomena, perhaps fauna. Is this the explanation of the ghost island? Some lost traveller, perhaps en route from Yap to Guam, seeing and remembering these phenomena, later reifying them as an inhabited land? Or is it possible that a real island once existed here, as the Carolinians say? [...] Any Carolinian navigator worthy of the name can give a whole set of radiating courses under all the navigation stars from every island of the Carolines, not just from Kaafiror. [... N]avigators do learn them, together with the courses from real islands, and they make no distinction among them. It is perhaps not altogether in the realm of fantasy to speculate that the curriculum of the schools of navigation was established in a time when Kaafifor was more than a discolored patch of water."

because a citizen review board is supposed to be representative of the citizenry, not a group of people appointed by the person/thing they are reviewing. Many jurisidictions have rules around the composition, so not just "anybody" can BE on the board, but typically anybody can TRY to be on the board. Example: the legislation could state "a member from the city/town council, and n members of the public" or something similar, intended to promote broad oversight. This is the opposite of that.
Yah, that's exactly why I submitted it, hard to believe it's already been 10 years, and yes, fun to see the right or wrong in the speculation. :)
