That’s not how bail bonds work. If you use a bail bondsman, you pay a non-refundable fee (10% of the bail amount) upfront.

If he had the money, he should have paid the full bail himself. That amount is fully refunded so long as he appears to court.

I think that’s correct…I’m not a bail bondsman and I’ve never used one, but I did watch Dog the Bounty Hunter once or thirty times

A few times a month with a Clorox wipe. Should honestly do that daily seeing as though I use it in the shitter. Also using it while in public, germy hands then touching the phone - yea, would probably be wise if I Clorox wiped it daily. Oh well!

I understand all of that, and I understand the need currently. I guess my question is, if solar (as an example) is not scalable due to physical limitations (both the materials physics portion, as well as the actual physical dimensions required given the limitations of the physics), then isn't the statement that nuclear is a stop-gap incorrect? We will need it indefinitely to augment the power needs not met by renewables.

Devils advocate, why build more nuclear plants when you could build more renewables? If it’s a scaling issue, in that you need a ton more infrastructure for renewables, and need to supplement with nuclear, wouldn’t that then always be the case in the future? I hear nuclear is needed to bridge the gap often, but it always sounds like it’s temporary, which I don’t understand - seems like nuclear would be needed forever if renewables aren’t able to scale well?

Dude maybe? Lol. Did they show him passing a bunch of people on the broadcast? I honestly cannot remember them showing 1 overtake by Norris (not saying they didn’t, I honestly don’t remember). We’re most of those overtakes due to pit stops?

I’m so fucking confused right now.

I’m late to this comment thread but I was shocked they didn’t retire him at the first pit stop. He fell nearly all the way back, surely they would have known he wasn’t going to recover and get into the points. Why put more time/wear on components at that point?

Makes me wonder if the fediverse shouldn’t be individually instanced. Like Each persons phone/browser is their own individual “instance”. Maybe a central hub/series of hubs (like instances as they are now maybe) that act like dns servers to point everyone around. No content is hosted on them, they just tell everyone’s apps where to look to the other apps for posts.

I have no idea, I’m a moron and I don’t know how the internet actually works. I’m guessing this is a problem at scale.
