Eller havde forældrene noget kokain de skulle af med, som det plejer at være med disse historier i USA?

Also, impeachment. One would like to think that even today, a president-through-killing-the-president-while-being-vice-president would be impeached and removed by congress, but who knows.

I’m a man and I pee sitting down because:

it’s more comfortable

Agreed, I will generally sit down.

It's solely a matter of comfort and/or convenience:

  • No. 2: Toilet (obviously, I hope).
  • No. 1 on the road or at the pub: Urinal or standing elsewhere.
  • No. 1 otherwise: sit down and relax.

Thank you for the corrections, I think I maybe skimmed the text back when it went through the EP, so I was mostly going from (poor) memory.

My understanding is that this would allow for lawsuits along the lines of "Your poorly written software caused [our business to lose this giant contract|thousands of consumers left with bricked devices|my washing machine to eat my dog]. Now pay up!"

Essentially, software vendors (vendor being the operative word here) would become liable for damage caused by their faulty products, just like manufacturers of air compressors or toys or fireworks.

Indeed, Poul-Henning Kamp of bikeshed and BSD fame got a nice little discussion thread started yesterday over on Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@[email protected]/113317528662477344

Yeah, I'm assuming developers in the big software companies are donning lifejackets due to the amount of palm sweat from the C-suites.

 

EU brings product liability rules in line with digital age and circular economy

Today [2024-10-10] the Council adopted a directive to update the EU’s civil liability law. The new liability rules better take into account that nowadays many products have digital features and that the economy is becoming increasingly circular.

I've found liberal amounts of contact cleaner to solve inadvertent double clicking.

 

For meget betalingsvæg, det gad jeg ikke: Der er ikke kommet et eneste høringssvar (kritisk eller anderledes) ift. opstilling af Danmarks største vindmølle på Thyborøn Havn, sandsynligvis fordi indbyggerne i Lemvig Kommune får lov at købe anparter i den.

TLDR: Vindmøller er ikke NIMBY, hvis folk får smidt penge ned i deres baghave.

Har du ikke sådan en (relativt) lille rød kasse til farligt affald?

Det har jeg ikke hørt om, har du et link?

Jeg har lige set Terminator 2 for den første gang i mit 37-årige liv, og mit indtryk er: ca. 45 minutters udmærket actionfilm, efterfulgt af ca. 30 minutters middelmådig whodunnit, og derefter en times tid med standard actionfilm. Nummer et var bedre.

Edit: Det skal måske nok lige nævnes, at jeg for første gang så nummer et for cirka en måneds tid siden, så det er næppe nostalgi der ligger til grund her.

 

Jeg har lige, af gammel vane, trykket Ctrl+Enter for at poste en kommentar, og det virkede satanvæltemig!

 
 

Som Oluf Sand ville have sagt (omend han nok bor omkring Husby), "Det e' bå' dæjli'!"

 

Tillykke til Grønland.
