Disney has asked a Florida court to dismiss a wrongful death lawsuit filed by the husband of a Long Island doctor. The lawsuit claims that Dr. Kanokporn Tangsuan suffered a fatal allergic reaction after eating at a Disney Springs restaurant despite repeatedly informing the waiter of her severe allergy. Disney is calling for the lawsuit to be dismissed because her husband signed up for a one-month trial of the Disney+ streaming service years prior.

What the hell. I hope the judge tells Disney where to shove their arbitration clause.

Isn't banggood legit? I know the name looks suspicious as heck (well, if I didn't know better, I'd think it was an NSFW site), but I remember Atomic Shrimp using it for legit purchases. I'd never use it though. I think it's in the same stable as Ali express and that sort of thing.

Yeah I've had a couple of customers outright wrap their hand around mine as I handed them their change. It's creepy and invasive. If it happened enough times, I'd just start putting everyone's change on the counter.

Offensive to lemons and fans of lemons.

Beautiful. Looks like Reform split the right wing vote and cost her the seat. Even more beautiful!

Now I need to look up if Badenoch lost hers too.

Edit: dang.

Why are union subs so high in the US? As a part time worker I pay under a tenner a month, but even as a full time worker, I'd be paying £16.

He started this whole crap show. Because he was scared of losing votes to UKIP, he held that dumb referendum, and that set in motion the events that led to Cruella (Johnson in power purging anyone in the party who didn't bow down to his brexit ideology). Cameron can do one, he's worse than Johnson in my eyes.

I have a friend who's really into them, so I thought it would be a nice surprise if I could learn one of their songs for him. I'm just not familiar with their catalogue, so does anyone have any suggestions for where to start? My level is "advanced noob" :)

Not his first attempt, but I want to do whatever I can to encourage him to stay on the wagon this time. I don't have any experience of this, so I'd appreciate any tips from those who have been there already.

Edit 02/10: he's still clean!

Shamelessly stolen from I can't remember.

This is hilarious! The mods are being compensated for their time with shiny gold stars!

This would be fine for small independent forums that don't really make a profit, but for spezzit? More fool them.

Wow, the difference in quality between the Squier and the Donner is incredible. It just feels so much smoother to play, I don't get the rattle and it just sounds and feels better overall. I'm confused by the reviews comparing the Donner to a p-bass. There's no comparison. I'm so glad I finally got my hands on my mini! It looks like a doll's toy next to the standard scale though!

Oh and added bonus, the tone dial actually does something.

I'm still having trouble offloading my Donner. I can't even trade it in.

And there's still this much battery left. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one. I wasn't expecting it to still have any power left at all. I suppose with the sim out, all it was doing was powering the clock, but still! Unfortunately, I've had to retire it as my network won't connect on it anymore.

I bet there's a language somewhere that sums that whole sentence up in one word.

Uh oh!

Hey, guys. I paid $30 for some tabs, but they're way too hard for me to work out. It's mostly the timing I'm struggling with (I'm used to yousician and songsterr telling me when to play a note) and my ear isn't good enough to work it out just from listening to the original song. Is there any software that can either output the audio or even just add a timing guide like songsterr? Thanks.

Hi, hoping you might have some recommendations! I just play for fun and I'm very much a beginner. I'm not going to make any money out of playing, so I don't want to spend loads on pro gear. I just want something cheap to record my bass playing onto my PC just for my own personal practice.

I've seen some guitar jack to USB cables on ebay. Are they any good?
