I have one better: the try block pattern.

Prisoners are charged rent. The hourly wages have no minimum wage and are usually cents on the dollar. Definitely not enough to pay their rent for their cell.

It's slavery. The South fought hard to include the "except as punishment for crime" clause in the 13th amendment. The US has never fully abolished slavery.

Thank you for the giggle, I misread this as a statement of faith and a non-sequitur.

7x longer for 11x the cost seems pretty good all things considered.

Always thought it seemed like a waste to not also dig out a bunch of storage while we're down there. I'm sure there are good reasons we don't

            Length  Tunnels  Bridges   Stations   Cost
    Koralm  130km   ~50km    100       12         €6b
       HS2  230km   ~75km    100+      4          €74b+

It is mostly within budget, estimated in 2005 were 5.5 billion €, total cost as of today are 5.9 billion €, the difference being largely attributed to the pandemic and later addition of sections.

> "Years of average use" is great until you realize that it actually means "Roughly 12 to 15 hours of recording".

Is that based on anything, or is that just a guess?

Anyway, 12 hours' worth of 30 second recordings is a total of 1440 recordings. I guess three a day for a year does seem a little low?

> Just hate Apple and love e-waste rings? Enlighten me.

What e-waste? You send it in for recycling; they might just replace the battery and send you a your existing ring back.

Unlikely, does anyone in this sector actually bother complaining about piracy anymore? Except for sports, they've largely managed to kill it off.

Does anyone else find the way of using tsunami.gov totally baffling? It tells the user almost nothing, and the target of all the hrefs for the supposed messages listed in the map is just the tsunami.gov homepage again. The entire above-the-fold is occupied by the map, and the map tells the user nothing.

I was paying $24 for crave. They showed me ads.

I'm not paying crave anymore.

And then a holographic Carrie Fisher appears, and George Lucas writes the script without her intervention, and it all goes to shit.
