Why are you quoting a US site for a case in China?

Conversely, if the pricing is due to an error, the company can petition the court to annul the purchase contract, allowing it to refund customers without the necessity of delivering the goods.

Surely, this will apply.

Well yeah, you need to do the computation somewhere and it’s not doing it on the server so…

Ukraine have destroyed three bridges in Kursk, which will affect Russia’s ability to get supplies to their invading forces, but they’re also over rivers where it’s fairly trivial to set up temporary bridges (unless they are destroyed by drones).

Patrick Delaney’s salute:

I know News Corp are evil, but this pic looks more mocking than heartfelt.

News was reporting yesterday that there was an arrest warrant out for Volodymyr Z in Poland but that he just popped over the border back to Ukraine.

[Truss complained that the British press wasn’t] “particularly deferential to politicians”

Why should they be? Their job should be to inform the public, not suck up to those in power.

Oh I see - yes, if the seats around the women are automatically reserved then that exploit doesn’t work.

I was thinking first would be the fake booking to find where the women were sitting, then switch browsers/clear cookies/whatever and book with the real details.

The airline’s booking process is fairly standard except for the seat map which highlights seats occupied by women with the color pink. This information is not visible to male passengers, according to the airline, CNBC reported.

What’s to stop a man from claiming to be female to see the map of where women are sitting, and then booking an adjacent seat themselves?

Where are you getting that from? The article you’re commenting on say otherwise:

France’s state railways company SNCF called the overnight disruption a “massive attack aimed at paralyzing the high-speed line network.”

Similar article from The Standard

They were focused on the TGV high speed train network which covers the whole of France, and which is particularly busy at this time of year.

Eurostar’s Brussels-Lille-London trains are not affected.

In another video […], young settlers are seen tampering with the village’s water pipes as soldiers look on. The military said soldiers helped repair the pipe soon after.

They just let it happen but cared enough to fix it afterwards? This is the kind of excuse I’d expect from an eight-year old.

At first I thought it was another safe with even more money, and I was wondering if I should get a magnet.

It is possible to die from eating spicy food, like this 14 year old in the US: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/one-chip-challenge-pulled-shelves-teen-death-rcna103906

Lisp variants like Clojure are being used for new projects (e.g. Logseq) but I’d be surprised to hear of anyone choosing COBOL for a greenfield project.

Do you also attack dictionaries for explaining offensive words? The person I’m talking to never used the term, they merely explained the meaning behind the number.

What you are doing is shooting the messenger. Please target your outrage more carefully in future.

Yeah, it’s probably shooting the messenger. Reminds me of once on Reddit where someone had asked a similar question and I’d replied with a sourced quote from the dictionary and got complaining replies and downvotes.

Thanks for explaining it, not sure why you’ve collected those downvotes.

The label for the contact’s mother’s sibling’s younger son or father’s sister’s younger son.

I thought it was just a male cousin, but it doesn’t include a cousin who’s your uncle’s son. Which culture needs this?

It starts out seeming quite credible and ends up in tinfoil hat territory.
