Oddly enough, there's a strong similarity between strong southern US and British English. For the life of me, I can't remember where I saw it, but one of the linguistic coaches to actors showed how flipping a few sounds transformed each into the other. He'd flip between them interchangeably, and it was startling.
While not trivial, I personally ( being a native English Speaker) found German to be the easiest to learn of the languages I've studied/dabbled with: This includes Spanish, Russian, Thai, and Japanese as well. It's the only one that seemed I could reasonably become fluent.
While I generally agree with you on the point of personal responsibility, I think all of us have done REALLY stupid things in our lives that could have gotten us killed. To be honest, if you haven't, you haven't really lived anyway. They just happened not to in our cases. So I may agree he was to blame, I'm not going to rub it in.
he can be a victim and the person can still be acquitted. They're not mutually exclusive. Speaking of which, what's with all the insightfuls on one side of the argument here, and negatives on the other. I'm not saying which one I agree with ( though you could probably determine that fairly easily ) but that seems odd.
Injecting highly controversial politics into naming celestial objects is an excellent idea. I wholeheartedly support this. Unless it's against my team. Then I wholeheartedly hate it.
Plus, a lot of men KNOWINGLY worked those shifts, knowing they would die slow painful deaths, to protect others. I've often though the Russians who worked on the containment vessel for Chernobyl are as close to heroes as we get.
"they consider that no matter how long it takes for them to get everything going on, it's better than the alternative that letting trasnational companies get the lionshare of the profits". That's no precisely true. If the demand for lithium dries up, say if an alternative source arrives or lithium is no longer required in such great quantities, then they might miss the boat and end up with absolutely nothing. In that case, there's a possible C) zero pennies now, hoping on profits in the future but tech outraces them.
I've got a nephew, who was once an average achiever, who now, continually, says that his ramen and CRT are enough for him. He's 30. So it does happen. This is obviously a single instance.
I dunno. I'm still running vista on a 6GB RAM old Gateway, with a quad core AMD processor, I can't remember precisely which one. I've never had any serious issues with it. I may have lucked out on the hardware working correctly, and I know for the time 6 GB was pretty heavy, but still.
Around here, recycling appliances is easy. You just put them out on the curb on trash day. Every trash day, hordes of scrappers in small trucks zoom around grabbing anything large put out with the trash. Just saw it this morning, in fact.
Oddly enough, the condo I'm buying has one. I'd never heard of them before, and when I referred to it as "an air conditioner that can go backwards", the real estate agent got a confused look on her face.
Is it hard to separate ? I mean, There's no benefit to me being civil to my neighbor, but I am. We've got three bins: trash, recyclable, and plant waste. It's not hard to figure out. When in doubt, it goes into trash.
That's not totally true. There are really really REALLY crappy broken down machines here and there that sometimes work taking the cans/bottles back. Most general aluminum recylcing places in CA assume your cans have the redemption value, and pay accordingly. Which also drops your value when you bring in general aluminum scrap.

I've gotten used to it...
I'm curious how you learned so many.

You can't kick with your hands. Just sayin'...

Bad Idea
Them sounds like Feudatory words my friend...

I'm sorry, but I think you may, just possibly, be slightly mistaken in your criticism.
The Nintendo DDS ships with one game, a dentist simulator.
I keep seeing people on Slashdot complain about businesses attempting to obtain value, and how public utilities are shining beacons of honesty and goodness.

Just so we're clear on this: There are greedy jerks on both public and private sector payrolls.
Which is why, in this case, we should stay the hell away.
We tried that. It didn't work. Now we become more introspective.
Just like we tried introspection, and WW2 required us to be less so.
I always wondered why they were second world. Because they were halfway between one and three!

I think I'd probably grind up and flush my food waste, if that was the system.
Yeah.
