Slow motion bullet takes about 30 seconds to reach the target during which time we get the inner monologue of every character
"It's going to miss! But wait, what's happening? The bullet is bending in midair!!! Look at his incredible pose! Did he put spin on the bullet!? This must be Free To Play Ojiisan's legendary hidden technique!"
Totally. This would be great.
If you want to see an amazing and unlikely sports show that actually exists, try Ping-pong the Animation. Art style takes a bit of getting used to but it's just such an engaging watch.
Then I think I was wrong, and you are right.
As someone not from the US I knew of zelle but never used it, and believed it was a direct competitor to Venmo or PayPal.
The reason I thought it was its own thing was because it has its own app, and a catchy silicon-valley-startup type name, and a brand logo, and all of that.
Contrast that to the UK where the ability to send free person-to-person payments has been integrated directly into the banking system for decades, and does not have it's own brand, or app or anything.
That's just a different third party, though.
Thanks for the context. Here in the UK I never experienced a website that didn't take payment via credit card directly as a first option - that's always been there default, with some sites offering PayPal as a second or third way to pay.
And about punching the numbers manually then well, sometimes a bit of Mechanical Turk works just fine lol! :)
I don't understand the PayPal one either.
Who is the 'first party' in this case? The banking system as a whole?
If it's the whole banking system then I'm not sure how that's solved, because as I understand in the US it's still not easy to send money to another private individual via the banking system. And there are Venmo and cashapp and such now but they are just other third parties.
Meanwhile in the UK here it has been possible for decades to send money between bank accounts directly, and free. I still use PayPal though, because my use for it isn't sending money to individuals, it's being able to buy things online without creating an account and without giving my card details.
Maybe people are thinking in phone terms, and the first party is "Apple" or "Google" and the solution is Apple Pay or Google Wallet?
I heard about the diaper thing, it's garbage. Definitely illustrates the point though; Amazon don't care at all because whether they act or don't makes no difference to their bottom line.
Someone comes to Amazon looking for a reusable diaper, they will search and usually buy whatever is near the top of the first page, because that's just what people do. Amazon make a sale and are happy, they don't care who the vendor is.
And oh - Amazon retail has more turnover than AWS but AWS makes more profit.
The number one thing I noticed after installing Linux on my old macbook was that the battery life was immediately halved.
I totally expected that to happen, though,, because my previous experience had always been that power management on Linux was kinda terrible.
Time to try this out and see!
“I think the existing, altruistic, free version of Reddit will continue to exist and grow and thrive just the way it has,” Huffman said.
There's nothing 'altruistic' about reddit
Sadly not even new, I've noticed it going on for at least the last five years, if not more. Amazon could easily detect and stop this but they don't because (surprise surprise!) better reviews = more sales, even if it is for the wrong product
It's the same picture
The teaser trailer looks like a high energy superhero romp that's closer to Guardians of the Galaxy, than it is anything Star Trek.
And I just don't like the idea that section 31 is made up of a bunch of oddballs and misfits with no discipline. Makes the movie more 'exciting' I guess, but really? Section 31 should move quietly in the shadows, not all brash and ballsy.
I'm sure they are hoping this style will boost revenue by appealing to a younger demographic, but it's just totally the opposite of what I want from Star Trek.
