Please can we rollback everything to scenario #1 already? I'm starting to think that #2 and #3 are actively counter-productive and the pendulum is going to swing back too hard.
#2 and #3 were always there, just with different targets. You could easily get shut down for not confirming to (depending on your time frame and location) McCarthyism, the comics code, the wishes of the Nazi party, saying things the King didn't like, etc.
#2 has also been a thing basically forever, from "look how great $REIGNING_MONARCH is" to "hey look how screwed up our system for taking care of orphans is" (Oliver twist) to 1984, etc.
2 and 3 are and always have been counter-productive. You’re some kind of -cist or -phobe if you don’t want to listen. Normal people have normal people problems. Normal well-adjusted people don’t want to go to the movies, play video games, go to work, go outside and be constantly bombarded with what the “correct” viewpoint should be. The group preaching tolerance seems to always tend towards moral panic and intolerance.
The ship on changing the pendulum back to the average has sailed. A lot of people who’d normally be amicable to listening have been run off by the impossible constantly changing moral standards of the group pushing 3. It’s gone from “good to know” to propagandizing. People just want entertainment that doesn’t make them feel horrible. People want to be entertained without the feeling certain aspects of some movie/video game/music only exist to “convey the message”.
For example, one time the federal police arrested a corrupt banker (Daniel Dantas). Somehow the Supreme Court was in session literally 4:00 am to immediately make a ruling that the banker should be released...
Some of the current judges were literally lawyers of the current ruling party, there was even cases where they judged cases where they were themselves the lawyer in that case.
I could mention more things but that is an invitation to get arrested.
No. Each minister has ~40 judges - not counting other staffers, law clerks, specialists, chief of staff - under them
It's standard, legal and completely expected for the Justice to dispose a general "guidance", delegate all the work and approve the sentencing based on minutes
A lot of people posting here are clearly right-leaning Brazilian voters with a bone to pick.
I mean, it works properly, but a bit slower. The driver just detects if the kind of application currently running (i.e. a game) needs to be confined to only one CCD.
The core to core latency between the two CCDs seems to have doubled from the 7xxx series according to some latency benchmarks I saw yesterday.
According to Wikipedia the virus is still called "monkeypox virus" and the disease "mpox disease". One reason for the change may have been to have different names for these different things.
That income tax then goes to build roads and educate their children, at least to some degree. The profits to visa and Mastercard go to the shareholders.
Visa and Mastercard certainly don't work for free, but the largest part of the interchange goes right back into the pockets of the customer, in the form of rewards points.
At least in the US, credit cards really largely an implicit surcharge on cash payers: Paying by card, you effectively pay 97%-99% in 4-8 weeks; with cash, you pay 100% immediately.

Well, there's the problem, drag increases with the square of speed and temperature affects battery capacity. Maybe they tested with the AC turned off too.
Cool, but it could be better if some of the paintings didn't have so much light reflected from the roof, like in room 12. Maybe the camera should have been higher?
How can you freely choose who to vote without free exchange of information?
