Thought Emporium, Nile Red, and Styropyro are YouTubers who are a few degrees away from being dangerous criminals (I say this in the lightest way possible) but channel their talents for educational videos.

It would probably make more sense for copyright fees to be proportional to the revenue the company makes. Disney paying $500 to license Mickey Mouse after 5 years while making millions isn't equitable for a small business copyrighting

That type of home appreciation happens in larger US real estate markets as well, assuming you're willing to put a few hundred thousand into renovations. Everything has shot up tremendously post-COVID.

Not to mention, car manufacturers would try to gate this feature behind a paid subscription model like OnStar. The industry took far too long to require rearview backup cameras, it would take years to require companies to have a system conn

It kind of makes sense considering the only viewport is on the opposite side of the submarine away from the PCs which interface with the controls. Maybe the intent was for someone to peak out the window to perform a maneuver. Still, I hope

In that case, the script could be modified to archive all the comments into a local file -- you could restore all your books back to the library (Reddit) if you chose, once they stopped threatening customers with higher fees. If people were

It probably would be a more effective campaign for subreddits to have their users wipe all their old comments (older than 1 year) than a temporary blackout for a few days.

Rental prices in San Diego are almost as high as Fremont/San Jose (5th most expensive rental city in CA). Also, considering it has one of the highest electricity rates in the country, it makes renting even more expensive than just the

Alternatively, IKEA makes a great little set of curtain tracks (VIDGA) you can attach to your ceiling to get full floor-to-ceiling blackout in a room, similar to many hotel rooms.

I always wondered how an AI tutor could be "the great equalizer" for teaching kids from all socioeconomic backgrounds (and international students too). It's impossible for a classroom of 20-30 students to get 1:1 attention fr

AWS treats its availability zones very seriously, each zone has its own independent power substation, air conditioning, and fiber lines. It's incredibly rare for multiple AZs to go down at once, especially since they are more than a fe
