Does anyone have a paywall-removed version of this? I tried putting it through 12ft Ladder, but apparently that tool is disabled for NYT.

My local store had numerous room temp superconductors right next to the perpetual motion machines.

I’m not sure how reliable eBay in Europe is, but I would suggest finding one available from a highly rated seller on eBay.

Yeah I have the feeling a lot of them are as bad or in some cases worse than bicycles upfitted with gas engines.

Is there something tangible? Slack’s logo is a symbol that suggests clockwise rotation while the version of the swastika that the Nazis used is a symbol that suggests counterclockwise rotation.

Especially given that the Nazis appropriated one version of a symbol that had many other versions/uses/meanings in different cultures, do we really need to equate every symbol or logo that has remote similarities to the swastika with Nazism?

Same. I cancelled my Netflix a couple years ago and haven’t looked back. They don’t have a lot of content that I’m interested in watching anymore, and when they do it’s easy to find elsewhere. I host my own Plex server now which makes it even more of a seamless transition.

Many English speaking countries use the comma to separate groups of three whole number digits and the period to notate the partial number digits. Most non English-speaking countries do the opposite.

I like this question, although I don’t think it could work. Someone who campaigns really well, does not necessarily mean they will fulfill their office well. It also penalizes when there are two good candidates running against each other.

I could see it being more viable if the upper term limit is still along the lines of what we have today. Perhaps a presidential candidate winning an election by landslide could get a maximum term of 8 years, whereas someone just barely winning would have a shortened term of 1-2 years. I would definitely still be concerned about the negative ramifications of potentially more and more dirty campaigning to try and capture the highest portion of votes that others have mentioned.

Are they truly able though? I’ll readily admit I’m not very knowledgeable on this, but radio towers have a limited range, right? Satellites have the ability to provide internet and communications to truly remote areas where it may be logistically challenging or impractical to build radio towers.

How is any of the information random? The OP title says vague things like “makes history” and “ruling”. While you can guess that the ruling is positive based on it saying that it makes history, the headline on the article is unambiguous and much better in my opinion.

First South Asian country

This describes the manner in which this ruling was historical.

Recognize same-sex marriage.

This describes what the actual ruling is.

To use a hyperbole to illustrate a point, the OP title could just as well describe a situation where Nepal had ruled that same sex couples who marry must be banished to outer space. Hypothetically, It’s just as much a historical ruling as what actually happened.

Edit: fixed formatting

Here’s the actual headline from the article which contains important detail and is less click-baity:

Nepal makes history as first South Asian country to recognise same-sex marriage

Not quite that crazy. The $52,200 is the assessed value for property taxes which is typically much lower than the true value of the house that it would sell for.

Yeah it’s more accurate to look at the sale/listing price history. That shows that this house was listed as high as $599k in 2018 and dropped as low as $249.5k before it was taken off the market in 2019 with no sales. So theoretically it would have been bought for less than $250k but the seller wasn’t willing to sell that low and may be waiting until the market in Detroit appreciates before putting it back on the market.
