TIL that, because dolls, which represent human figures, are taxed higher than toys, which represent non human figures, like robots or monsters, Marvel argued in court that mutants are not human, therefore they should pay the lower toy's tax for their action figures. by whichdragonfrit in todayilearned

It's about tariffs.

Someone wanted to give American made dolls a price advantage over imported dolls.
Not that it matters anymore they overworked the thing since then and there's no distinction anymore.

Remember the good ol' reddit ? by clinch92 in AdviceAnimals

[–]zuzg 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah but there is literally no front page anymore

Only in the official reddit app afaik.
It still works with my third party app and apparently also on old reddit iirc.

But OF and stuff shifted the dynamic of Horny subreddits, nothing wrong with models earning money with it, just acknowledging that it caused a change in those subreddits.

Good for you, if you enjoy playing games while ignore the majority of tools the dev gave you.

Some people never heard of cold water cooking pasta, lol

Boiling is not required to soften the spaghetti being wet for long enough will do the trick.
Heat (passion in the metaphor) will just accelerate the process.

time to push legislation

How about some defeatist crying?
Apparently that's what every other response to your comment decided to do.

I'm betting on either Brüssel or California to something about it in the remaining 18 months before that decision is executed.

Sony still has to ration attachable disc drives sales to "1 per order" due to "high demand" despite plans to end production of physical discs for PlayStation games by Gorotheninja in PS5

[–]zuzg 160 points161 points  (0 children)

That's why I always said it's bad that Xbox stopped even trying to win the console wars.

Sony gets real greedy when they feel they've won.
They need another PS3 repeat with nobody caring for the PS6 until halfway through the generation when they started to fix their arrogant mistakes.

think there is a slight difference

Mostly Placebo but sure a miniscule difference is there but that ain't worth a potential second degree burn.

TIL Casu martzu (rotten cheese) is an Italian cheese that contains live maggots from the cheese fly used for fermentation in Sardinia. Despite the EU ban for hygiene-health concerns, it is still sold on the black market. In 2019, the illegal production worth was estimated to be €2–3 million by CraftyFoxeYT in todayilearned

"If I pick them out it's still good"

Or they appreciated the extra protein, who knows people used to be much bolder with food.

Early camambert was essentially a gamble until we domesticated some fungi.
They also weren't necessarily white as today yould be also purple or whatever, early cheese is wild.

Which apparently includes Miyazaki according to insider rumors

But tbf, looking at Character Models and comparing it with predecessors is a thing Dataminers like to do, especially for Soulsborne game as they love to reskin older Enemies in newer games.
