113 Years after the Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire and not enough has changed for the better.
If anyone wants to know, the reason that happens is because spiders move their legs with a hydraulic system and once they are dead the pressure gets released and they revert to their "default" state.

Pretty much every OSHA rule came from some kind of death or dismemberment of they guy before you. As a wise foreman once said, "Better a pain in the ass than your ass in pain”
Theres a house near me that has the 10 foot skeleton that they dress up for all the different holidays. Last year they got a second one. One of my favorite houses to looks at when I go by.
God i wish. And most everyone here could install a new operating system in about 20 minutes. But nobody else is going to because the learning curve for a regular user to install an os is basically perpendicular. Even if they had a linux installer already on a flash drive.
Oh just boot into the bios and find the option to boot for a flash drive and then boom installed.
Which requires a user to know, What a bios is
What booting means
What boot options mean
What the model of their flash drive is
What button on their keyboard they need to press to get to the bios
What secure boot is
Where they need to go to turn off secure boot
How and where to back up their important files
What a disk partition is
How to reverse the changes made to the bios so that it doesn't boot to usb by default.
And that's assuming they know why they want a different OS, why they care and that they know about Linux in the first place.
Most people dont and never will. All you can do is install Linux for the ones you like the most and say a prayer to your favorite deity for the rest.
Hey at least you won't have to sign in anymore just to get automatic driver update checking.
This is the sort of thing that to me highlights the inherent inefficiency of proprietary software and processes.
"Oh sorry, you'll need our magic hardware in order to run this software. It simply can't happen any other way."
Turns out that wasnt true which of course it isn't.
Imagine instead of everyone could have been working together on a fully open graphics compute stack. Sure, optimize it for the hardware you sell, why not, but then it's up to the "best" product instead of the one with the magic software juice.
Y'all know that Ready Player One was a DYS-topia right guys?
Connected a Samsung smart TV to my network when we first got it. The thing damn-near crashed my pi-hole asking for so many ad/tracking domains. Factory reset it later that same day. I think my % of requests blocked went from 15% to 68% in just the 3 hours or so the Smart TV was connected.
Good thing broadband providers have such a stellar track record of nothing but honorable and consumer-benefiting behavior. I see no reason that we can't just trust that they have our best interests at heart.
"We look forward to appealing this decision for Kim Davis," said Mat Staver, an attorney for Davis. "We will argue religious accommodation under the First Amendment, and other state and federal laws. We will also argue that Obergefell v. Hodges was wrongly decided and should be overturned."
So actual religious oligarchy and removal of civil rights is what her lawyer is arguing for. Imagine if a mail carrier didn't have to deliver mail because they didn't religiously believe in credit card offers or electric bills.
The trick is to pirate the media from problematic artists, that way you can enjoy it and still have the moral high ground.
