The special sauce of peak BioWare was the Writers' Pit, an almost TV-style writers room of very talented people working on extreme deadline.

Fascinating process. Instant collaboration when required, yet also doing their own thing.
Reminds me of air traffic controllers
Legally they have no choice tho. Lying requires a conscious decision to be untruthful.
Are they really lying or are they just mistaken? Did they forget something? Has someone told them the wrong info?
State of mind is a very difficult thing to prove, and assuming it can get people sued
Thanks for the detailed reply.
Obviously it varies massively by geography, but here in the UK we would need several days of storage backup. Our weather is highly varied and unpredictable
Anakin: Vetting is done, he's in Padme: So he passed, right? Anakin: ...
If he couldn't tell anyone about the vetting being failed, then literally what's the point of the vetting
If that's true then the system is clearly not fit for purpose
Obligation, surely? He obviously had the *option* to tell him
"We're here to practice democracy, not to defend it"
Precisely?
"Get the vetting done quick" is a very different from "Ignore the results of the vetting and don't even tell me if he fails"
So Lee Anderson and Zarah Sultana both misled Parliament when they claimed Starmer was lying.
Which of course means they should both now apologise and resign.
Or does that not apply to them because they're special
I had forgotten about this. Explains a LOT
London?
If those trends continue, how long before we have enough storage for a 100% clean power grid?

EU Defence at Risk of US “Kill Switch”
A Brussels think tank warns that over three-quarters of European countries depend on US cloud giants like Microsoft, AWS, Google, and Oracle for critical defence systems.

Gil Duran tweet: TLDR: Fascism in response to Palantir's long fascists screed on X.
"Your Account is Suspended" Message on X
The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X.
I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!).
So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

Europe hasn't beaten its cancer after all
What did I just say
Yup, pretty much. Lots of interconnects between nations here in Europe
Doug Mills photo of bullet path in Butler, PA.
I'm so tired of this "staged" conspiracy bullshit. NYT photographer Doug Mills literally caught the bullet's path in a series of photos where Trump puts his hand to his ear and immediately has blood on it.
Taken by a 2x Pulitzer-prize winning pro photographer who has covered the WH for over 40 years with AP then NYT.
So unless you have any evidence that guy suddenly decided to be part of a massive conspiracy, which you do not, then these pics alone refute the conspiracy theory.
You need nothing else
This photo what
My god these people are weird
He does WHAT??

Ecotricity did it - after four years of campaigning to reform our energy market by ‘breaking the link’ - our government just announced it will. Our bills will be lower, so will inflation and bank lending rates, our economy bigger and stronger.
