Whatever we observe empirically is “natural” by definition. Causality is an assumption, not a law of nature.

Something to look for besides bandwidth is actual packet routing throughput. It’s possible you enabled a feature (ex. Deep packet inspection) that is limiting how many packets can be routed per second given the speed of your hardware.
The red cross symbol is actually not a generalized symbol and use of it is heavily controlled by the American Red Cross non-profit. There is a history of lawsuits against video games for using the red cross on medkits without permission. If a pharmacy in the US uses it, they no doubt had to seek approval.
Think you mean 1001 to 2000 😉
Or just winter, I think. Lots of people indoors with nothing better to do.
Edit: actually, I’m curious how this chart looks for just the southern hemisphere.
6 now lives in fear of his younger sibling.
Which is a hilarious Freudian slip on their part. Who is it that they think don’t want to teach about the Civil War? Could it be the ones who instead refer to it as the “war of northern aggression” and try to erase the context of slavery by saying it was about “states rights”?
The Superintenant of OK apparently stated plainly that he believes Trump’s appointment to the SC were specifically done to protect states doing this.
I think people are more afraid that this will function as successful brainwashing than they should be. As someone who went to grade school in OK, there is not a doubt in my mind that the kids won’t stand for this. I fully expect those per-classroom bibles to be systematically stolen and destroyed on a daily basis. I’m honestly a little envious that this didn’t happen while I was in school. It will be interesting to see the outcome, for sure. Don’t underestimate a high-schooler’s penchance for civil disobedience.
You’re right, they weren’t a “household name” yet. But they were probably more than a little worried about surviving at the time. Turns out they picked the winning strategy.
Google was the first example I thought of, because they were founded in 1998, solidly before the dotcom crash. They survived because they hoarded data.
My point was that every company going into the bubble thought they had a product they could monetize, but virtually all of them failed in favor of just hoarding everyone’s data. Amazon and eBay were competing for ecomerce supremacy, but now even they are just privacy violators for various reasons (amazon via AWS and Alexa, eBay in the interest of detecting malicious account behaviour).
MySpace is an example of another unsustainable social media model in the vein of many dotcom era services. They died out as soon as Facebook realized they could hoard everyone’s data.
All roads lead to privacy nightmares. It’s the fossil fuel of the internet, and enshitification is the climate change.
No, this just the best strategy in a first pass the post voting system.
That describes the business model of basically every internet company that survived the dotcom bubble.
Can’t believe how strange it is to be anything at all
Because you think the inevitable alternative will somehow be better? I hate Biden as much as the next reasonable human being, but I don’t want another 2016 situation. We don’t have good options, only least bad ones.
Keyword: “satire”. I assume that was pen name for comedic value.
I don’t think this is what you’re experiencing, but I had an alarm go off randomly for one beep once. Went and looked at it, and a few seconds later a spider crawled out and away from it.
If it’s photoelectric, anything that could scatter light could cause it to go off. Is your house dusty?
There’s gotta be a solution that leverages their unwavering support for the 4th amendment here. I mean a penis is basically a naturally occurring gun, already. You could almost certainly get a congressman to endorse porn in schools this way.
When I was in highschool, it was normal for everyone in my mostly male friend group to greet each other with hugs. I remember my dad saying he found it weird. Didn’t change anything.
I think the Spongebob movie was a few years too late, like 5 years after the show premiered. By the time it came out, I had lost interest. South Park was great timing, though; only 2 years after it started, and afaik still holds the Guinness World Record for most swear words in an animated film.
