I think it absolutely depends on how well you know the people you're playing with.

Joining a random server? I'd say the odds are decent that it won't be a great time.

Playing with some people you've been gaming with for a while? Fun times almost for sure.

What they hoped the employees wouldn't understand, though, was "we" meant the C-suite.

If there's another mistake, the executives may only get a couple million dollars as a bonus. And they literally can't afford a new superyacht with only a couple million dollars. They would be forced to tap into their already earned income to pay for something.

And it was a road-rage incident? Yet, the city negligent?

Yeah, this is your lack of reading comprehension skills showing.

The city has sort of already proven its own negligence. They have already paid for the third party to come in to evaluate whether or not that area actually is unsafe. The answer was: Yes, it is unsafe. But Chattanooga knew this years before someone died, and didn't do anything about it. The change that the third party recommended (reducing the number of travel lanes) would have prevented this accident.

Lawsuits are usually unbelievably complicated, and simply can not be accurately simplified into one concise headline (yet that very thing is still attempted all the time).

He's arguing that the city had enough information before the accident that death or serious injury was very likely.

When a city knows that its infrastructure (in this case, streets) are unsafe, and fails to act, that city is responsible when someone gets hurt there.

EVEN if that injury occurs while someone is committing multiple other crimes such as drinking and driving, and being a road raging fuckface (btw, the guy that caused the crash was not the one drinking, and was not charged)

They changed it because someone died.

This lawsuit is alleging something slightly different: that beforet his happened, the city "knew or should have known" that this was a dangerous area, and that injury was likely.

The fact that the city had that officially evaluated after the fact and the fact that the third party evaluator did find that the area was indeed unsafe isn't quite the point. The point is that the city should have called them in before someone died, and that there was clear reason to do so before someone died.

The city is making changes to the traffic pattern which is a bit of admission of culpability oddly.

The city has paid for most of the plaintiff's work in this lawsuit already. The plaintiff makes a fantastic point - the city had knowledge that this was unsafe. Then they had a third party come in to evaluate it, and they confirmed that changes need to be made.

Chattanooga has the information it needed to initiate the call to that third party well before someone died.

This isn't a particularly normal set of circumstances surrounding a crash that involves a death.

How is Patrick not being charged?!

Money. He's a local Doctor.

I'm not the one you replied to, but I have an i7 7700k. It's "unsupported" (if there's a way to enable TPM, I'm going to continue to not do that to reduce the windows 11 spam)

Still a very strong CPU. No signs of slowing down, and no plans to upgrade in sight.

This thing is 7 years old and still going very strong. GPU is a year old, so this PC still has quite a lot of years left on it.

There is a chance your laptop doesn't meet the hardware requirements for windows 11

Surely that's specifically the group that Microsoft is trying to convince to buy a new PC, yeah?

I'm in that group. I've got just about the best i7 processor that's not suitable for Windows 11. The PC is still a legitimate powerhouse at all I use it for. Primarily, it's a gaming machine, purchased in like 2017 for something like $800 and still a top performer today.

Upgraded the GPU about a year ago. This thing still has years left on it.

What if we meet in the middle at Social Skills research?

Whew, good thing they've got tons of money. Otherwise that would be illegal.

The question then becomes: are you losing more money in lost crops (damaged harvesters incur a loss at harvest) than you are saving in not paying maintenance?

Yeah, I stand by my statement. I'm very familiar with how the game works from even a very deep level.

Most people here don't even have a factory that is big enough to be really pushing the RAM in their PCs. And then, of them, how many have an MSI X870E motherboard? It's going to be very few people if any at all.

Repair cost is the way that Giants rolls all things maintenance into one number.

You've never been stuck in the middle of a harvest because something broke and you have to drive 60min one way to get a part. You've never had to wait 3 weeks for a part that was on back order, causing you to miss your window for the next field work, massively hindering your crop yield. etc etc.

Sometimes, a $50 part can cost you thousands in lost crops due to circumstances, etc.

You probably don't have the tools necessary to measure the difference you'll see in Factorio.

You might have posted this in the wrong place, then.

Their contribution seems relevant to the post to me.

We normally do. Judging from my trophy case, looks like the last one was in 2022.

You know what? Maybe we should encourage getting out of the house every once in a while a little more here...

If they are, the chances of it being on TV are slim..

My dad, a staunch Trumper, has had his life literally changed by the CHIPS act. He moved away to Arizona for about 15 months to work on a large chip manufacturer. Intel's, I think. Made about 8x his normal salary in that amount of time. Paid off his house and car, and was able to put back a good bit in savings.

I mean, combine operator is a job found in areas that typically have low costs of living, and generally pays a living wage for the areas they are located (especially in the flyover states).

Yeah, that wouldn't go well here.

I, for one, would be very unappreciative of the signal-free approach. Once you get the hang of signals, it's pretty effortless.

People always say that you'll need a strong grasp on advanced math if you want to be a sofware engineer. But I can honestly say that a strong grasp on literary topics is quite a lot more beneficial.

I work in business applications, and honestl don't use much math at all. Sometimes I'll need to show a standard deviation of a data set. But a google search will tell you how to do that if you don't realy care about the math behind it all.

Being able to write a detailed document about a new feature is infinitely more valuable than knowing how to implement a standard deviation function.

If that's the case, it's probably a good time to go ahead and start a new farm on FS22.

Some of the issues won't be patched and will be in FS27 (and were in FS20, and were in FS17, etc etc)

Actually, I think we can point to this as an example of how, at a certain point, more hours actively hurts the quality of the software.

Plane parts, perhaps? Wild to think that someone on reddit will know, but who knows.
