According to this: https://www.wkrg.com/alabama-news/lakeith-smith-resentencing-alabama/
The time was for two charges, theft/burglary and felony murder. The resentencing set the prison term to 30 years, effectively setting the sentence for felony murder alone at 5 years.
Probably he’s on a diet and his wife won’t let him eat more than 1 order of meatballs.
This article claims they pay a higher effective tax rate, not more in taxes. A citizen working the same position would pay even more in taxes since they would also have to pay income tax.
Maybe the headline should be that sales + other flat taxes are becoming an increasing burden for low income workers. This is the problem for the illegal immigrants in the study, and even more of a problem for citizens who earn the same amount.
*You can only teleport out to where you teleported in from.
Does this mean you get dropped into outer space if you stay inside for more than checks notes ~4 minutes?
Is it feasible? Sure. The limit on this kind of calculation is basically how much detail do we need to add to the environment (i.e., can we make the model) and how high resolution does the sound wave need to be (can we calculate it given finite compute resources).
To get something that roughly sounds like a rock? Not difficult to model or calculate, if we make some reasonable assumptions.
The sound of a wet towel thrown in the water during a hailstorm? Uhhh that’s a tough one.
Simulating sound uses classical mechanics governed by the wave equation, which is well-understood. In terms of CPU power, the calculation to propagate a simple sound wave (wavelet) could probably have been done on a TI-89 calculator from high school.
The idea is checking out with more than a basket of goods is really inconvenient. And I agree, it’s much slower and there’s no space for it.
If you’re not afraid of the legal system why not slap a Disney logo on there too?
Why do you think the organic label for food means nothing?

“All those moments will be lost in time, like tears… in rain”
How about an app that makes calls, but you have to dial like you would with an old rotary phone.
If you make a mistake with the rotations it just connects you to a random one of your contacts.
It is ironic, but if this was the case we would probably just see the Republican party shift to be more moderate and collect more votes. Not a bad thing IMO. Cultivating extremism is bad for democracy.
