oh absolutely, this is purely a thought experiment of course.

Just thinking at a high level, an infinite number of monkies should hypothetically almost instantly produce Shakespeare (or at least as quickly as they can type)

Conversely, 1 monkey would eventually produce it given infinity time.

I watched a show talking about adrenalin and injecting it into the heart, the doctor was saying how it would be the worst place to try and go first because damage but also because you'd be more likely to hit a rib or puncture a lung then actually make it through the heart.

This signs writing appears to look like it’s meant to be viewed with 3D glasses.

"may see the ‘homo’ side and think it has something to do with gay sex."

Better not let him see assume, class, bass (ironically a homophone) or many other words with such scandalous suffixes lol

It's a small thing, but for me it's refusing to support them as much as I can. I don't use Disney+ and try not to buy merchandise from their IPs. Admittedly this is both difficult since they own so. many. things. while also being a drop in the bucket for such a large company, but if enough folks feel the same, it can move the needle a small amount.

I also shared this message out on all my platforms (that of their shady practices) which influenced at least a few people to say they were distancing themselves from the mouse.

Ultimately though, corporations will always do what is best for their shareholders, and in this case, that means doing anything possible not to pay out, PR nightmare be damned. Meaningful legislation is really the only thing that puts guard rails on this behaviour, so my last recommendation really comes down to being vocal with your representatives that these things matter and voting accordingly. I recognize again this is a small thing but on-mass action like this is how change happens.

My two cents at least.

While true, most clocks are quarts oscillators These days so would die also. That said, love me a mechanical clock and have a skeleton watch I daily drive.

I tend to avoid the large corps where I can (Amazon, Walmart) recently moved to buying what I can from farmers markets and honestly having someone remember you and be proud of their product is a game changer, and tastes better too.

So yeah absolutely boycotting em

Double equals means equals, triple equals means strict equality including type.

Prevents a Boolean true being evaluated to 1 for example
