Even if it is just a handful of TVs, if they were competent and gave a damn about their customers they would have a way to roll the change back until they could re-do it properly.
Alternatively, 7 days is long enough to have gotten a replacement to each and every affected customer, if they were at all inclined to pay for their own breakage.
Wow! You sure read a lot into the guy just for tweeting a link to an article that asks how fair it is for neurotypicals to expect the neurodiverse to be able to conform to norms of language in a code of conduct.
Exactly. That's why they need a ready army of suckers ready to buy when they liquidate their position. As long as you have eager buyers, you can sell off without taking too big of a hit. The suckers that buy will take the hit for you soon after if you timed your move right, of course.
That's why larger investors have gotten more friendly with smaller investors in the 21st century. They realized they can make even more money if they blow the bubbles up big and stick a bunch of suckers with the dynamite just as the last bit of fuse burns down.
You know, those pills aren't just sanity talismans. You have to actually swallow them before they can do any good.
As for the rest, we DON'T know how many, if any, have the risk in some populations in the developing world. Of course, some places have no peanuts, so necessarily no peanut allergy risk. I'm not sure what sort of bias you think I might harbor there.
For the rest, if there are really that many kids THAT deathly allergic to peanuts, surely there will be many sensational headlines reporting hospitalizations or deaths at school. Where are they?
Generally, bricking is when the actions necessary to recover are beyond typical end user procedures. For example, soldering connections in and using JTAG.
If recovery is simply a matter of using the documented end user interface to upload new firmware, it's not bricked.
The fact that the seller is an elephantine organization where the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing is legally irrelevant. They are a single legal entity that accepted the order and shipped it. I'm not saying what the couple did was right and proper, but since the company kept willingly sending the goods, it would be easy for the couple to think of it as "not really a crime". Yes, people have been imprisoned for less because we have a punitive culture that jails more people than China, but really, a non-custodial sentence makes more sense and will likely be enough to get them to not do this sort of thing again (supposedly the aim of our justice system).
Don't be silly. This wasn't just Lowe's not noticing some stealthy action, this was Lowe's willingly packing up and shopping the goods to the couple after receiving no money.
Given the volume and value of the goods, I find it hard to believe that the couple had no idea it wasn't just a really good deal, but I can somewhat see why they might not have fully realized it was a crime.
Hopefully, they will be required to return the goods and receive a non-custodial sentence and a stern warning.
OTOH, I am less likely to say, do, or know anything that the governments of Russia or China give a crap about. Certainly nothing they care enough about to actually launch a covert operation in the U.S. to actually do anything to me.
But as for U.S. government, all it takes is for me to see a cop commit a crime.
It's interesting how the claim that they messed with our election. They sort ofdid since they only exposed one side, but they didn't exactly manufacture the dirt, they just exposed it for all to see.
If what Russia did rises to the level of interference with the election, then what the FBI did certainly does too.
It's really sad that we've come to a point where between the Russian government and the American government, Americans are genuinely unsure who the bad guy is.
Exactly this. While there have been a few notable exceptions where lower priority components have allowed remote access to the CAN bus, the rest of the attacks are of the in-person variety and so are bogus. IT people should know that. It is widely understood that physical access to a server is game over for security.
There may well be some 3rd World deaths from severe allergy that never get characterized. It would be hard to know.
My point is more that in the 1st world, the paranoid peanut bans some schools implement are drastic overkill in most cases. The odds are that the one or 2 allergic kids simply need to not eat peanut butter or get it smeared on them. The kid at the next table eating nutter-butters isn't a big deal.
This is important to understand. Practically all peanut allergies are like yours. People with the severe trace of nuts in the room equals death level allergy are extremely rare. Even they can be (carefully) de-sensitized enough to make casual contact harmless.
Actually, I installed chimneys and fireplaces as a summer job many years ago. NONE of them had multiple flues. Some do, but certainly not most. The chase was rectangularr and large enough to contain an old style flue, the actual flue was a double walled aluminum pipe secured with straps and firebreaks in the chase. No lining. No turns greater than 45 degrees no slope less than 45 degrees. But that's the modern form. There are also clay and ceramic flues out there, but those are also modern.
See here for a view of things as Marx would have known them. How do you reconcile that with your entirely inaccurate claims? It seems Marx wasn't so off base with his comments on chimney sweeping after all. If you read through the United States section, you'll even see a reference to one of the machines Marx was referring to. Read the references for more mention of the cleaning machines.
So, in this matter it looks like Marx was right and you are wrong. The answer to your question is that due to changes in the way we make chimneys these days, those machines are no longer needed. It's cheaper to pay a sweep well to do it with brushes, cloths, and often big vacuums than it would be to bring in and set up a machine. Doing the job without the machine no longer involves forcing children into dirty and dangerous labor.

Make sure to keep it current. Add releasing __ pounds of carbon into the atmosphere.

He scuffed the most holey of the sacred cows. He must be put to death now.

And you don't seem to appreciate the difference between KNOWING and SUPPOSING.
The first requires not less than one documented example.

Yes, if and when the documented end-user procedure no longer works, it will be bricked. That time is not this year.
Generally, bricking is when the actions necessary to recover are beyond typical end user procedures. For example, soldering connections in and using JTAG.
If recovery is simply a matter of using the documented end user interface to upload new firmware, it's not bricked.
Much simpler, if the called party hangs up and dials *38 (*FU), the calling party's line can only dial 911 for the next 5 minutes.
I have seen disclaimers such that even back when I had better than 20/20 vision, I needed a magnifier to read it.
Try printing at a regular size rather than being sneaky.

That's why I am suggesting they return the goods and get a non-custodial sentence rather than "not guilty".
To be fair, sometimes the limits really are too small to read if your vision is less than perfect.
Mod parent up!

The enclosure worked out really well for a few wealthy people. Not so much for everyone else.

I'm not sure where you got that, but none of it is actually true of migraine or cluster headaches.
There are headaches associated with blood pressure problems but they are not migraine or cluster headaches.
