You are a worm through time.

The thunder song distorts you.

Happiness comes.

White pearls, but yellow and red in the eye.

Through a mirror, inverted is made right.

Leave your insides by the door.

Push the fingers through the surface into the wet.

You've always been the new you.

You don't want this to be true.

Yes, but due to lossy compression. Not because of any limitations of digital audio.

Or the 00s-10s when everything had to be "HD".

Human eyes are more sensitive to green than blue or red, and more readily notice details and defects in green shading.

Nope. It's aaaaaall camera bump.

I have a suspicion that was omitted purposefully to prevent people from just sharing their raw saved replays. Since if you have to clip you'll never end up with people sharing full minute videos where the interesting bit was the last five seconds.

This is of course just my own supposition from assuming they had a reason for the omission and thinking about what that reason might be

I don't think "they're a business" properly captures the concern. It's probably more accurate to say that they have a desire to operate efficiently and not waste resources, but it has to be balanced against the need to treat patients effectively and fairly.

Since they're both Sony

This would very likely work with most modern TVs that support HDMI CEC. Manufacturers like to put their own name on it, but Sony Bravia Link, Samsung Anynet+, LG SimpLink, Roku 1-Touch, and several more, are all just different names for the same control protocol.

"Waiving the notice period" my ass. It's wild to me how this idea that it's required to give notice when you're quitting a job is so ingrained in society.

It's a courtesy you can extend if you want to ease the transition for the company or leave on good terms, but it is absolutely not required.

The entire concept of objective good and evil is nonsense from the onset. It doesn't matter what you put at each end of the scale.

Law is also the alignment of angels and modrons. Chaos is the alignment of demons and slaad. Your point hinges on ignoring half of the D&D cosmology.

I'm not saying there aren't problematic aspects, but it's not nearly as bad as you make it out to be.

The anode precipitates from the cell metals when it's first charged.
