This would work great in some places, others might finish lunch as the sun rises.

Because compromise makes neither side truly happy
We are already trying to compromise with switch back and forth.
30 minutes just makes it over complicated and satisfies neither side
We can't tell you who squealed, but it was one of the dozen employees at this McDonald's. Probably the one that's going to change jobs soon...
I'd be pissed and scared if I was an employee at that McDonald's
Why wait so long and not get found earlier or not long enough for the reward to increase by a lot? It's in a weird time frame.
Why risk traveling to PA where someone else might spot you first? Maybe crossing state lines increased reward?
People will do a lot for money. My guess is someone is paying this guy's family to take the fall because they do not want one of the highest profile murders in recent history to go "unsolved"
Willy Loman would take the fall for money for his family
Imagine letting the world know you could shoot a CEO in the middle of NY and get away with it. They would much rather everyone believe life is like CSI and they always get the shooter. Worth a lot to them to keep up the security theater.
Couple days pass. The shooter got away and probably not going to turn themselves in to get the soap box.
The guy could be the next Guy Fawkes if they let it get out of hand
Couldn't he just change the skeleton to be sharp at the front and then pull forcefully?
Adamantium gets really sharp.
Magneto could easily pull a razor blade through a pineapple and not have the pineapple move.
It would be like the razor blade starting in the pineapple
Enough force and sharpness, wolverine's body wouldn't move at all. Slice through everything like jello.
Imagine a baseball going through a jello cube. At some speed (since you can't change the mass of the baseball) the baseball would theoretically clear out a perfect baseball size hole and leave the jello cube perfectly stationary.
It could be like shooting a bullet through it. There's not much disturbance of the entire jello cube.
A blunt skeleton would theoretically just throw out big chunks of skin ahead of the skeleton. Kind of like picture.
The real question is how much force can magneto create
Magneto slowly pushes a coin into Shaw's head. Low speed = less force. Coin small and blunt. Magneto has to be able to create a ton of force.
I play mostly on my Xbox. I got all my games and stuff downloaded on that.
If I am playing a PC game, it would be SC2, and I don't use steam. Haven't since CS source.
I carry around the keyboard always with my tablet because it's the screen protector when closed. There's no way I'd carry a separate keyboard and play SC2 on a 7.4 inch screen, that sounds miserable.
It's probably similar. You could just use your phone and controller. My phone screen 6.8 inches, not the best ratio, but the steamdeck is only 7.4 inches.
Like I've been saying, they are basically the same.
Yeah, a laptop can get left out of the equation. Tablet or phone are better.
I don't need a docking station to hook my tablet to TV. I can even stream my tablet screen wirelessly to TV.
Carrying around the docking station goes against it being portable.
Theoretically, all I need is my tablet or phone. 1 item. The controller helps with some games.
You keep saying 3 items...and because my xbox weighs 10+ pounds.
My tablet weighs 1.6 pounds. Steamdeck is 1.48 pounds. Xbox controller weighs .63 pounds.
You're talking about half a pound difference in weight. Tablet takes little to no space and the controller probably half of the steamdeck.
Steamdeck would be great for rides on the subway, walking, and maybe some other things where you need to be fully mobile. I get that aspect of it. Though I can easily pull out just my tablet and play a ton of games that aren't "mobile games"
I've been gaming like this for longer than the steamdeck has been out. I saw the steamdeck and said "why would I want that?" And never got one.
The Xbox processes the game.
Tablet just streams screen and sends inputs from/to Xbox.
So you don't really need an extreme tablet/phone/laptop
Im bringing my tablet/phone anywhere I'm going, so having a steamdeck would just be an extra thing to carry and worry about charging.
You can do on-screen controls that aren't bad for some games. Otherwise, Xbox controller.
The controller in the steamdeck has to kill its battery life some. 2 extra AA batteries, and I could use my Xbox controller for weeks.
I'd rather have 4x the screen size and not have to hold it the entire time while being semi-mobile. I'm not going to walk around and play on a steamdeck, maybe some do and then that's a plus on the steamdeck.
Steam deck is nice and I can see why people enjoy it. My thing is why more people don't like tablet/phone/laptop gaming and talk about the steamdeck like it's a game changer.
My tablet is basically my PC at home. I can access and do everything remotely, including gaming.
I don't need to bring my Xbox around. Simply open the xbox app and my Xbox screen is now on my tablet anywhere I'm at.
My tablet can stream onto bigger displays or even stream my PC.
You don't need to carry around the console
I can use my phone or tablet as a portable screen for my Xbox
Can even use it as a portable screen for my PC
Why would I want a steam deck vs having a bigger tablet screen and a controller I don't have to stare at?
Portability, but the steamdeck is as portable as my tablet if it can't fit it into a pocket.
A smoker would definitely want to switch to their tobacco flavor
However,
A smoker that tries tobacco flavor does not want to switch to tobacco flavor
Smokers enjoy their cigarette's flavor. If they could just get it in a vape many would.
Expecting a smoker to be like "I wish my cigarette tasted like Mint Mojito". Is crazy.
So I do believe that the majority of the responses are tobacco flavor
Just doesn't mean what they think it means
Many would just try tobacco flavor, hate it, and move back to cigarettes.

35 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
35 voters: Bob > Carol > Alice
30 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
Vs.
41 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
29 voters: Bob > Carol > Alice
30 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
Alice wins
Vs.
Carol wins
Say you have:
41 voters: Republican > Third-party > Democratic
29 voters: Third-party > Democratic > Republican
30 voters: Democratic > Third-party > Republican
If those 29 voters couldn't vote Third-party they would vote Democratic. So when the Third-party candidate is knocked out, their votes should favor their second pick. Democratic wins 59-41.
If it was:
41 voters: Republican > Third-party > Democratic
29 voters: Third-party > Republican > Democratic
30 voters: Democratic > Third-party > Republican
Which makes more since on why the 6 votes moved to Republican because Republican was their second choice.
Then Republicans win 70-30.
In America you'd have 4 basic senarios
25 voters: Republican > Third-party > Democratic
25 voters: Third-party > Democratic > Republican
25 voters: Third-party > Republican > Democratic
25 voters: Democratic > Third-party > Republican
In RCV, Third-party wins.
Let's say this
30 voters: Republican > Third-party > Democratic
25 voters: Third-party > Democratic > Republican
20 voters: Third-party > Republican > Democratic
25 voters: Democratic > Third-party > Republican
Third-party still wins
40 voters: Republican > Third-party > Democratic
10 voters: Third-party > Democratic > Republican
10 voters: Third-party > Republican > Democratic
40 voters: Democratic > Third-party > Republican
It would be a tie
45 voters: Republican > Third-party > Democratic
10 voters: Third-party > Democratic > Republican
5 voters: Third-party > Republican > Democratic
40 voters: Democratic > Third-party > Republican
It would still be a tie
45 voters: Republican > Third-party > Democratic
5 voters: Third-party > Democratic > Republican
10 voters: Third-party > Republican > Democratic
40 voters: Democratic > Third-party > Republican
Republicans win
Let's change it to this:
35 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
35 voters: Bob > Alice > Carol
30 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
Vs.
41 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
29 voters: Bob > Alice > Carol
30 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
Alice wins
Vs.
Alice wins
They couldn't make their whole point if you just switched Alice and Carol. And it makes much more sense that someone with Alice second would change it to Alice first.
But when 29 votes still hold Alice as last, it does have some weight.
Something just seems off about it and it's because they cherry picked a senario that would work for their point.
Alice > Carol > Bob
Alice > Bob > Carol
Bob > Alice > Carol
Bob > Carol > Alice
Carol > Alice > Bob
Carol > Bob > Alice
There are 6 ways to vote and they leave out half of them. Then they make Carol supporters favor Alice as their second choice.
20 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
15 voters: Alice > Bob > Carol
15 voters: Bob > Alice > Carol
20 voters: Bob > Carol > Alice
20 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
10 voters: Carol > Bob > Alice
Carol eliminated, +10 Bob +20 Alice. Alice would win.
If 5 voters from Bob > Alice > Carol were moved to Alice > Bob > Carol
20 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
20 voters: Alice > Bob > Carol
10 voters: Bob > Alice > Carol
20 voters: Bob > Carol > Alice
20 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
10 voters: Carol > Bob > Alice
Alice would win
What if everyone from Bob > Alice > Carol moved to vote for Alice > Bob > Carol
20 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
30 voters: Alice > Bob > Carol
0 voters: Bob > Alice > Carol
20 voters: Bob > Carol > Alice
20 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
10 voters: Carol > Bob > Alice
It would be a tie.
In bold are the three they selected:
20 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
15 voters: Alice > Bob > Carol
15 voters: Bob > Alice > Carol
20 voters: Bob > Carol > Alice
10 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
20 voters: Carol > Bob > Alice
5 voters from Bob > Carol > Alice moved to Alice > Carol > Bob. Just like their example.
26 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
15 voters: Alice > Bob > Carol
15 voters: Bob > Alice > Carol
14 voters: Bob > Carol > Alice
10 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
20 voters: Carol > Bob > Alice
Alice 41
Bob 28
Carol 30
Bob is eliminated.
15 votes goes to Alice. 14 goes to Carol.
Alice still wins.
But they set it up like:
20 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
15 voters: Alice > Bob > Carol
0 voters: Bob > Alice > Carol
35 voters: Bob > Carol > Alice
10 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
20 voters: Carol > Bob > Alice
5 voters from Bob > Carol > Alice moved to Alice > Carol > Bob. Just like their example.
26 voters: Alice > Carol > Bob
15 voters: Alice > Bob > Carol
0 voters: Bob > Alice > Carol
29 voters: Bob > Carol > Alice
10 voters: Carol > Alice > Bob
20 voters: Carol > Bob > Alice
Then when Bob is eliminated all 29 votes go to Carol.
Then they say "It's unfair that Carol wins". When in reality those 29 people would prefer Carol over Alice.
RCV might have some flaws but that article has some flaws.
I haven't looked at the others. I might later.
Edit:Formatting
The whole Noah story arc proves that God would totally cause storms to cleanse the evil.
Doing it Thalnos' style and only killing/moving? the bad people isn't God's style. He could do it, but "God snapped his fingers and all bad people were sent to Hell, the world instantly became a better place." Doesn't get you a New York bestseller.
It's not that you asked for a link, it's your low effort way of asking that implies you are already skeptical of the information.
"Hey! I googled to look for it and I'm having a hard time finding where it officially says the statute. Mind sharing a link?"
They probably would have said "No problem. Let me google that for you. Here..."
You can take 1% of anything, then multiply as well.
Like 7% of 15.50
1% is .155 (10% is moving decimal to left once, 1% is twice)
.155 × 7 = 1.083
That's a hard one to do in your head, but .155 × 7 is easier to do on paper than 15.50 × .07.
Say something is 49.99 and 7% off. 1% is .5. .5 ×7 = 3.5. You could probably do that in your head. Otherwise, good luck trying to do 7% of 50 in your head.
Edit: Hmm. So you could also do 3.5% of 100 instead of 7% of 50. That would have been the easiest way to do that one.
Bonus: I thought I'd mention 11s. They are my favorite thing in math because they are so easy and you seem like a math wizard to anyone.
Say you have 42 × 11. That's 462.
You just split apart the 4 and 2, add 4 and 2, then stick it in the middle.
Something like 67 × 11. Where the digits add >10.
6...7, 6+7=13, 6+1...3...7. So 737.
You can remove the decimal then add it back at the end
15.50
Is
1500
Half would be 775
Or 7.75

America has no culture
Jake being bad at acting could have been a shtick
Like "Jake you're famous now! We need you to do commercials!" Jake "But I can't act!"
libertery mutual, a company that is referenced in the meme, even does this with a real actor that acts like he can't act.
Jake from state farm was supposed to be a normal dude. Him not being an actor probably makes his delivery that much better
Replacing Jake with a professional actor seems wrong. It's no longer "Jake"
Have you really thought this through?
It's 12 pm in New York.
It's 9 am in California.
Sun rised at 7 am in NY today
Sun rised at 7 am in CA today
It was 10 am in NY when sun rose in CA
So let's say we get on one clock.
That means sun rises in California at 4 am
So now everyone in California has to shift their whole schedule around that.
7 am sunrise, 9am-5pm work (Sun set begins at 4.5pm)
Would become 4 am sunrise, 6am-2pm work (Sun set begins at 1:30pm)
How is that the best thing ever?
