That’s one theory about how it might work, our inability to come up with another way to explain the possibility of quantum determinism is not evidence against it

The entire sountrack from the original Toejam & Earl on Genesis, shit rewired my child brain in funky new ways

That’s assuming that our current understanding of quantum mechanics is even close to accurate, just because we haven’t figured out how to predict the outcomes yet doesn’t mean it can’t be done

You’re right, I didn’t notice it

Skrillex?

Sausage is meat, just ground up. People use the term “american cheese” to refer to a variety of products, ranging from almost all real cheese with a small percentage of emulsifier added, to shit like Kraft singles which is mostly milk protein concentrate and emulsifier with a small percentage of real cheese added (allegedly). The latter is usually labelled “pasteurized process cheese food/product” or something similar, US law forbids actually calling it cheese if the cheese content is less than 95% iirc

The car adapter did kick ass, but I never got to use it because looking at anything other than the road while in a moving vehicle would instantly make me nauseous. I do vaguely remember it getting very hot, alarmingly so in retrospect, but I didn’t know shit about exploding batteries at 5 years old so I never worried about it.

Sega GameGear. That thing had a better screen than any portable gaming device would for another 20+ years, but it would eat 6 AA batteries in less than an hour. There were rechargable battery packs you could get for it but they were heavy as shit and didn’t last noticeably longer, you could play it with the battery pack plugged into the charger but then you’re not actually mobile at all so you might as well play the same games on the Genesis.

I can’t speak with confidence about the legal situation in other countries, but in the US frivolous lawsuits are routinely punished by having the plaintiff cover the defendant’s legal costs plus compensation for their trouble. Avoiding liability in general is still best practice, but there’s no significant risk of liability from actions taken by a customer in the dining area, customers are supposed to be there and nobody could reasonably expect the restaurant owner/management to predict and/or control the behavior of all of their customers. The customer would be held responsible for their actions and would be on the hook for any damages.

“they represent a highly complex and dynamic area of tort law. They pose especially complex legal issues”

Like I said, not simple at all. If the business owner wants to reduce liability they should definitely not be serving anything on a scalding hot piece of metal. A customer spilling any amount of non-scalding food onto another customer will absolutely not result in a successful lawsuit, at worst they might have to comp a meal or two. Feel free to try finding even a single example to the contrary, I’m open to being proven wrong.

Nothing in this wiki article proves me wrong, any injury to himself or other customers could just as easily occur without him carrying his own plate and the legal liability sitiation for it would be completely unchanged. And it is absolutely not simple, try actually reading the article you linked.

There is no evidence that he was carrying fajitas or anything else served on a scalding hot piece of metal, you can plainly see a normal plate in his hand. And yeah actually serving food on a scalding hot piece of metal is fundamentally fucking unsafe. There is no evidence he got in any employees way or disrupted any workflow. There is no evidence that he isn’t trained, dude could just as easily be a food service employee himself. Quit making shit up and just admit you don’t know enough to judge.

Not half as weird as the commenters here making shit up to justify getting mad about a relatively innocuous behavior, yourself included. He could just as easily bump into someone and spill food on them while walking across the dining area for any reason, him carrying his own plate changes absolutely nothing. And if the food was hot enough to geld someone then the restaurant is going to get sued for serving it at absurdly unsafe temperatures, and they’ll deserve it, that also has fuck all to do with this guy carrying his own plate.

That would be contaminating the food and plates, not the counter, moron. And no I didn’t ignore your other points, I said the liability situation is unchanged because they can all just as easily occur without him carrying his own plate, learn to read. If you’ve got some evidence to suggest this guy goes around coughing on people’s food feel free to post it, otherwise quit making shit up and just admit you don’t know enough to judge.

Another baseless assumption, I know goddamn well I’m not being nice to the many stupid commenters here. You do not have enough info in this post to judge, if you’re going to pretend otherwise I’m going to give you a hard time about it.

Likewise bud

They don’t need an excuse, they’ll make up whatever bullshit they need to justify whatever they were going to do anyway

Christina Ricci. I was maybe 5 or 6 the first time I saw the Addams Family movies, I was already extremely into everything scary and/or Halloween adjacent, and she was only a few years older than I was, and she was both pretty and scary, and the boy she gets paired with in Values reminded me of me. The overall effect of this was to fill me with a deep-seated lifelong fondness for spooky women in general and her in particular. A few years after that I saw Casper, which only reinforced the effect, and Sleepy Hollow showed up just in time for me to hit puberty.

These are reasonable follow up questions to ask, we do not have enough info

More baseless assumptions, and incorrect ones at that, be better

This is the first/only good point I’ve seen here as to why this would be a bad thing to do regardless of legal liability or his demeanor or intent. Management don’t need a legal or moral justification to be assholes.
