  • There are a number of reasons why someone can die from homicide in the medical sense, but not the legal sense. For instance, self-defense.

    Most places have some variation on these types of homicide:

    1. Aggravated homicide, where the murder was planned
    2. 2nd degree homicide, where it wasn’t planned but could reasonably be foreseen (e.g. savagely beating someone with a bat)
    3. Voluntary manslaughter/negligent homicide, such as knowingly driving a car with malfunctioning brakes
    4. Involuntary manslaughter, such as losing control of your car because of ice.

    There’s also situations where it isn’t a crime at all, but would still be medically homicide. I mentioned self-defense, but someone could get shot by a hunter because they were in the woods without an orange vest. There’s also certain cases where it’s legal for police to shoot someone, due to an active threat.

    All of these would be medically homicide, but only some would be called murder.




  • The biggest problem with DDR3 is that the last (consumer) boards/CPUs that could use it are really, REALLY old. 5th-gen Intel or AM3 AMD. Which means you’re looking at a full decade old, at the newest. These boards also probably can’t do more than 32GB.

    Now, I suppose if you only need 32GB RAM and a CPU that’s pathetic by modern standards, then this is a viable path. But that’s going to be a very small group of people.

    McDonald’s gets the very last stage of leftover beef from the carcass. If they don’t buy it, it goes to things like animal feed.

    I don’t know how much McDonald’s-grade beef is on a cow, but I’m guessing the real numbers are how much non-McDonald’s beef people are eating, divided by the average weight of cows



  • There is a ratio, which may be a new experience if you’ve only used public trackers. It’s not really a big deal if you have some patience, though.

    TL (as do most ratio trackers) gives you bonus points for your time seeding, even if you have done nothing more than make it available. You don’t have to upload even a single byte unless someone wants it, and you’ll still get points. These points can be used to buy upload credit.

    If you simply keep seeding everything you download, and buy credits as needed, you’ll quickly have more ratio than you could ever hope to burn. No need to spend money or anything.

    As for limited content, it’s a general tracker. You probably have niche interests, so you would be better suited on a more specific tracker. I’ve almost never had issues finding anything mainstream, although quality can be a crapshoot. That’s the main reason I usually use other trackers.


  • It’s not entirely true that you can’t identify him from that Facebook account. It’s just really, really hard.

    Facebook almost certainly knows who he is. Like specifically, name and all. Their data mining is VERY extensive, and he likely has other accounts.

    Anyway, with a lawyer’s help, you can (possibly) get a court order for Facebook to reveal what they have on the guy. They certainly have things like IP addresses and timestamps, but they also probably have name, other associated accounts, viewing history across the web (from those “share with Facebook” icons/links, even if untouched), and hundreds or thousands of additional pages.

    Is it worthwhile? Probably not. But it can be done.
