Aren't companies forced to try and make themselves as valuable as possible? My gut says they wanted to get a publicity boost so they decided to cut cookies but then had to backtrack as they realized they'd loose a lot more money than expected. I think the delay is to buy more time to think of some way of minimizing damage (profits).

I haven't watched Mr. Bean but Yes Minister is a British show and had me laughing all the time! Much different than any American comedy I've ever seen but quite interesting and a really fun watch.

I think its all good because Cassevah is a willing percipient! If we forced someone to do this against their will I don't think there would be much excitement... He is going for the world record so I don't think there is much misery involved.

All good points! I forgot to add in my original post but I also totally shop on Amazon as well; I just like eBay better. Another point for eBay is that you can combine shipping at all! Because you can see what else the seller has its easy to buy stuff that otherwise wouldn't be worth it without combined shipping.

Magic the Gathering cards come to mind! Buying MTG cards from Amazon can be a little risky as there is a non zero chance of getting a box with already opened packs [0]. Customers buy the product, take the valuable cards out, reseal it and return to Amazon. Amazon just throws it in with the rest as they doesn't know how to properly check for tampering.

100%! My point still stands though. I don't like buying something when I don't know who I'm getting it from!

As of right now I honestly think eBay is better than amazon in many ways. Obviously getting anything used or rare is significantly easier but many other things are much cheaper [0]. I also like that I can actually see who I'm buying from. On amazon Its difficult to tell if its amazon selling something or a private seller.
Ebay also has good return policies. They almost always side with the buyer which makes it hard to create fake listings.

In your specific scenario it doesn't (I think!). However, if the host doesn't know what door the prize is behind then there is a 1/3 chance of picking the prize and you instantly loosing because both other doors are goats and you must choose one.

> If someone is caught cheating how do I know they didn't cheat in previous classes, but got away with it?
I could be wrong but I don't think this happens that often. If you cheated enough not to understand what was going on in calc 1 may god rest your soul as 2 and 3 are going to be downright impossible. For those types of classes you need to mostly understand the material even have a chance at cheating successfully.

I was wondering why the website was grayed out! Falstad has an amazing circuit simulator. https://www.falstad.com/circuit/circuitjs.html
Lotta fun to learn how circuits work and make some basic projects :)

Love OpenMW! Got my old disk to work on my Linux system and it was super easy. If you want to play Morrowind I would highly recommend it.

Wasn't LUNA in the top 10 coins? If so that seems like a big deal. That would be like Coca Cola going to zero.

Although true, from what I remember they still forced you to use PayPal for payouts until a year or two ago.
