I don't know, there's an amount of emotional catharsis that they are owed by society in general. No matter how much it saves, this feels a bit unjust.

According to the article at least 1 is not satisfied with the decision and is coming out saying so.

It makes sense to everyone but the victims. That is who the trial would be for. It would be so they could have their day in court and he would be, not just punished in general, but punished specifically for hurting them.

No clue. But what if its a new universe created by Jack instead of Chuck? Broke your brain didn't I?

Ahh but they weren't destroyed till season 15, so a prequel that takes place in one of them would still work.

I don't disagree with you. I was just trying to clarify the source of the anger.

It's not about the games not running fast. Its about google saying it would and not meeting that promise. People don't like being lied to. People don't like when you set an expectation and give them something else.

Yeah and don't bike riders tend to take part of the bike with them anyway if they park it outside, like the handlebars or a detachable front wheel?

I completely understand the reason for feminists not liking to use woman (although a bit childish imo) but I don't understand why you don't just create a whole new word. Spelling it womxn and then pronouncing it woman is just dumb. Spelling of a word itself holds no meaning other than to represent the sound of the spoken word. If you still pronounce the word as woman it's still the same word, just misspelled. I'm not some anti-feminist btw I just think there are more important fights to fight for the movement.

I didn't, it was suggested to me by reddit. I understand why it's done in feminist terms, It just bothers me as someone who believes that the written should emulate the sounds of spoken language. Womxn is unpronounceable.

Did you spell women as womxn on purpose in the title? As someone who enjoys etymology this bothers me. X is not a vowel.

Now that the tech is patented and BMW has announced that they will start doing it other car companies will follow suit. Corporations don't leave potential revenue on the table no matter ho douchie it makes them look.

I'm sorry I meant that's how you measure the value of the new one. The old one was most likely worth it. Now at almost twice the price will the new one be as good and be of as much value? That's what we need to wait to see.

Reply to comment by A-Delonix-Regia in Students can quote ChatGPT in essays as long as they do not pass the work off as their own, international qualification body says by Parking_Attitude_519
Spellcheck and Grammar check both do the work that an editor would do in the proofreading step. When we were in school that step was done by another student to teach how editing works. I have no problem with those tools. Chatgpt replaces the process of turning ideas and thoughts into written word. That I have an issue with.
