Occupation does not automatically disqualify you unless your work connects you to the case in question, but some occupations are not going to make it through voir dire. Keep in mind that you might be sitting on a jury in a civil case. Rather famously, Barack Obama was summoned (after his presidency) and he went, but was dismissed by random draw.

I hope to never be a hero, this country treats its heroes so poorly.

Primer was incredible. No flashy effects just a solid script, cast and crew.

Ryan George has really saved me a ton of money.

The last time I had kittens their mom (a neighborhood stray) stashed them under my car. Getting the sharp, squirming lil tykes out of the engine block in Texas summer heat was a memorable experience.

If the phone is encrypted already you really just need to destroy the key. Of course then it needs to be reimaged to be used again which isn't very user friendly.

Not counting rare ones that are from brand new DLC, this is my rarest (Stellaris).

With another rare from a different space 4x game (Endless Space 2):

Edit to add the one I am the most happy with (Noita):

Willful disregard for human life is the legal term I believe.

Can we stop trying to beatify this psychopath? It's possible to be against violence and still condemn Kirk and his violent legacy.

I recently got a fairphone and I want to move my pictures, contacts, messages, etc. from my old android phone to the new one. My initial search found some apps that do this but they look like absolute privacy nightmares. What is a good way to accomplish this without handing my phone contents out like candy to whichever malevolent spyware developer?

I do enjoy how GenX doesn't appear at all. Very appropriate.

So his son was being investigated for making threats to shoot up the school and he decided that the best gift was a gun that could allow his son to act on those threats.

Charging him in connection with the shooting seems appropriate.

The reputational damage that team of lawyers did to the company massively outweighs the cost of a settlement. I personally will never do business with a company who thinks the EULA or TOS of one service indemnifies them from egregious negligence in a completely different line of business. This was simply beyond the pale.

Edit to note: Despite the title, they aren't actually reversing course, they still claim they have the right to force arbitration, they are just choosing to waive it in this instance. If you do business with Disney, you are a fool.

He doesn't have trauma, he is watching because that was the moment everyone told him he won the election. It was his glory moment and he wants to relive it because he fears it slipping away. Spare me this disingenuous sympathy plea.
