Do we have data to substantiate that claim?

That's the response you have to the parent's anecdotes?

I hope that one day you are not sad and angry anymore.

Aren't free kicks an example of this? There must be a few in every soccer game, no?

But I don't know how many times the 14 player scenario happens per game in American Football, is it a lot more?

definitely not easy by yourself, but the whole process (change, then alignment etc) shouldn't take a decent mechanic's shop more than a couple of hours. I've changed tires on my nearly 200k mile car several times now, and it's usually a few days for the tires to be delivered (in america the mechanic will just receive it) and a 2h appt to get the work done. I'm shocked your parent comment mentioned waiting a whole day at the mechanics'.

My friend does this at Costco, and it takes longer purely because of appt mismanagement and backup, the work itself is quick.

> This is potentially easier than reliably shooting guns at people.

I suspect the shooting guns robots will be used against populations the owner considers sub-human, and reliability (accuracy in this context) is not a concern as long as it doesn't turn around 180degs.

Possibly Lorazepam[0]? Relatively common anti-anxiety drug (I have a couple of them in my pocket all times because it can help during seizures).

That interview was unfortunately timed (taped before nomination, broadcast afterward). My takeaway was that they are not trying "just not report the numbers" _yet_.

In the context of the article, instead of your parent comment, this sounds like a weak excuse. Is driving to the Huascarán mountains (and it's ilk) more dangerous than climbing it?

I'm almost sure this is a pretty common Zoom feature, I have run into this at least once a month the last 6-7 years.

IMO, it's less a Zoom problem, and more a setting on the host's side problem. Same category as "guest cannot move a meeting invite unless explicitly allowed to" on google calendar.

We took TK 79 on Oct 5 2024.

Also, my search brought up this final response from Turkish, which infuriated me enough that I wanted to share:

"Thank you for your feedback.

At Turkish Airlines, we strive to provide all our passengers with the best flying experience possible and to make them feel valued at every stage of their journey. As giving our passengers who choose us on their travels the service they deserve and delivering this excellently are among our priority targets, we again have experienced how important your feedback is.

Through your feedback, we’re able to improve the services we provide. We’d like to thank you again for your support.

We took a Turkish Airlines flight in September (IST-SFO), and the seats were teeming with bedbugs (as in, multiple passengers were able to visually point them out when we were still boarding).

Some passengers were able to switch to other seats, while multiple others broke out in hives (including my wife). The cabin staff were polite and understanding, but once we landed, escalating to Turkish airlines was pretty useless. We've filed a case with the DOT which got the airline to respond.

Glad the media is covering this, we heard from multiple folks that this has been a problem.

I'm not sure if this answers your question but the last 2 companies I worked at (~7 years) both had very clear traffic spikes 9a-5p US east coast hours on weekdays. My current place actually sees more than 20-30% drop sunday nights compared to monday morning, and it's constantly going up because we have a lot of American enterprise customers.

Maybe I misunderstood your question but is there a case where you can keep your entire capacity running for free? I'd assume you pay AWS/other cloud or your electricity provider.
