Probably throttled by USB read/write speeds if it isn't USB 3.0 and maybe even if it is.

Nah the app runs pretty good on my phone. I prefer it even to the PC browser experience tbh.
In other news, Green new deal! It's nonbinding though. Hopefully a step in the right direction.

Peeking into the room with a table, Drett wonders aloud, This place is very interesting. I could spend plenty of time here analyzing. He seems to not notice, nor appear to care that what appears to be the next and likely final guardian has been spotted. After a good look-see, he turns his attention to the kitchen as well.
In that open room with a table, is there anything else there? Anything visible on that table? I'm not going in but I would like to look closer.
Same deal with the upside-down kitchen.
Drett, Doktormoth

Nah, Herring said they'd be willing to step down if asked to as well. Quite a power move as it gets ahead of the calls of stepping down and it doesn't make him look like a hypocrite.

My god it's almost as if adults were edgy teens at one point in their life and then grew out of it!
E: And that's exactly what the VA AG is saying too. That he was a stupid teenager and he grew up. This is how the Governor should have done it.

All that's coming out of the Northam thing, for me, is that he's a PR idiot but has shown personal growth since the 80's. I don't blame him for keeping it under wraps until it got out but at least he's trying to own it, apologize for it, and hopes to move on from it.
Whether or not he is successful remains to be seen and since I'm in Idaho I don't care all too much. But it seems like someone specifically went out to dig up dirt on him considering what recently passed over there.

These days it's about 20 weeks since we've successfully had a child survive after 21 weeks. Beyond this will probably require synthetic wombs.

When it comes to voluntary euthanasia we will have to deal with people under the age of minority with terminal illnesses as well. Whatever that terminal illness is.
Legally, parents have full medical decision making up to the age of 14, where the child can then make decisions necessary to their health. Will those 14 to 17 be able to choose euthanasia if they're diagnosed with a terminal illness?
And what about any child under the age of 14 with a painful terminal disease where their parents refuse their wishes?
I'm happy your brother lived for so long, and I understand it's a decision you would likely never make and I respect that. But some people would rather terminate a third-trimester pregnancy than wrestle with an extremely costly "maybe" and they should not have that choice made for them.

You quoted the same thing twice?
But in cases of "severe disability or terminal illness" I think it's fair. So long it's terminal in terms of days or months rather than decades or so. It saves heartache and medical bills if they choose to abort someone who won't see their first birthday.
It's the severe disability I'm leery of. What's severe enough to abort, mentally or physically? What quality of life is enough for us to say what's worth letting live?

Russia announced it's developing intermediate-range missiles, flying in the face of the treaty brokered in the 80's.
I'm pissed this is being allowed to happen and glad I live both in America and in a non-priority low-population area.
