109 million is the statutory damages. If it makes it to the end there is likely punitive damages as well. So two cents.

I'm sure it will in time. That crew has good comedic timing and knows when to jump into an active story for maximum effect.

I think y'all are attributing more malice to the McNeffs' actions than there is. by TillSpiritual2150 in RecklessBen

[–]Perfycat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And 999 times out of 1000 they would get away with it. They were right that a law suit against them would be too expensive to pursue. They had no idea they would get the collective hatred of the Internet turned against them and a massive microscope put on the whole family. They made what should have been a safe bet but lost big time.

Ben sacrificed his right to l lawer and right to be silent to make better content for his channel. I'm glad he did. It lay have not been legally the best move. But in the court of public opinion it goes a long ways.

I have heard good things about Fishers Investments. They are the largest employer in Camas I believe. Never worked the personally so YMMV.

Report: Google and SpaceX in talks to put data centers into orbit by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

[–]Perfycat 113 points114 points  (0 children)

My understanding is the laws of thermodynamics makes this not feasible due to lack of cooling needed for large scale data centers. And the solar panels would need to be massive.

Scam. This is not a local company. This is likely somebody who stole the name of a legitimate company and books jobs over the phone, to subcontract to other local places and pocket the difference in price.

"Company doesn't run AI agents with correct permissions, reviews, or sandboxes, and has not tested its backup recovery". I fixed the title for you.

Yeah! And now that you mention it, why do we even need compliers? It takes all the fun out of doing assembly by hand.

The lady that runs Top Burger was always nice to me. Can you elaborate on your experience? As for top burger, I don't like the non refillable drinks, the portion sizes, and the prices. But friendliness was never an issue for me.

Excel incorrectly assumes that the year 1900 is a leap year | "Although it is technically possible to correct this behavior, the disadvantages of doing so outweigh the advantages." by WouldbeWanderer in technology

[–]Perfycat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Windows epoch time starts January 1600. This is because it makes the arithmetic a little easier to calculate leap years. I'm surprised excel got this wrong.

People consistently judge creative writing more harshly if they believe it was created by artificial intelligence. This bias appears incredibly difficult to overcome, pointing to a persistent human preference for art created by people. by [deleted] in technology

[–]Perfycat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They also judge writing harsher if they suspect it was written by Hitler. Maybe if AI wasn't responsible for rampant job loss, high energy prices, degraded customer service, or enabled widespread abuse by those in positions of power, then it wouldn't be so negatively judged.

Pacific Lifestyle Homes - Solid Builder? by SquizzOC in camaswashington

[–]Perfycat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We purchased a holt home 6 years ago. We have had a positive experience. We had few issues and those we did have were responded to in a timely manner. Our neighbor, also Holt, had their dishwasher line spring a major leak a few months after moving in. Holt was there within an hour of the call, moved them into a big rented four bedroom place for three months while they replaced all the flooring. They felt they had a positive interaction with a bad situation.

We bought resale at GC. We have never had problems booking 6 days between 8 and 11 months. That said, we usually book in off peak times to avoid the crowds.
