Very thick, insulated walls. Sounds like the dungeons in Liechtenstein Castle. There are a limited number of these to go around.
And I'd like a window in mine as well.
You are right, get legal advice, the cost can be passed on to them anyway.
AIUI, your costs can't (or couldn't) generally be passed on when using the small claims system. Has that changed? It's been a while since I went through the process, so it's possible that my information here is out of date.
There is obviously a personal data angle here. There might also be a defamation angle if the system works as implied by TFS, since it appears that someone's reputation has been affected because someone else lied about them and this has demonstrably caused harm? If there was more than one relevant incident then there might also be a harassment angle.
Please be careful with that advice about requesting compensation in a Letter Before Action, though. There are fairly specific rules for what you can and can't claim under our system and just going in with claiming some arbitrary figure of a few thousand pounds in "compensation" for vague damages is far from guaranteed to get the result you're hoping for. If someone were serious about challenging this kind of behaviour, they might do better to consult with a real lawyer initially to understand what they might realistically achieve and what kinds of costs and risks would be involved.
By the time we have the tech to do proper depth of field properly, eye tracking will probably be cheap, and you can do it with a gaze-and-squint interface.
Can't be sure if I'm serious, or only squinting to select

For one, the clip-ons would have to have all the compute and battery sitting on the front of your face, which would be uncomfortable. You need the arms to hold some of the magic sand.
I guess you could make a weird clip-on with ballast in the back, but I can easily see why they wouldn't. It's also another thing that can go wrong (alignment with existing lenses).
Thank you for your service!
are you really comparing a NATION STATE to a 5 people small business operation?

It's actually dependent on culture.
When I was in Japan I noticed appliances had a TON of buttons. The remote control for the hotel room AC was wild. It had all sorts of buttons for every function. My house AC has a MODE button that switches between modes. The japanese remote had one button for each mode (color coded even). I actually have a Daikin AC at home (japanese brand and actually the same brand that was in most hotel rooms - either Daikin or Mitsubishi). The "western" remote has fewer buttons.
If you ever visit a store like Yodobashi Camera, the number of signs is absolutely wild. There is no attempt to try to make it into a nice, organized boutique (except the Apple section of the store, of course). No. everything is just there. Things have a sign with descriptions. Signs say a LOT about the thing they're selling you.
Restaurant menus are just as crammed, most even have pictures. Every ingredient is listed.
According to some youtube video, this is because the japanese are a "high context" society. Meaning you are always fully aware of your surroundings (meaning you are aware of who you are and who you're speaking to - using the wrong honorific is not just a faux pas, it can cost you your job). So "things" in japan are super explicit about everything. Because in that culture, hiding things makes people suspicious (so to speak).
Other examples are japanese websites. They are absolutely crammed. Take a look at Yahoo jp or Rakuten.
Funfact: western media sold us Marie Kondo as some minimalism maximalist. Look at her social media for the west and for japan - the japanese one is way more crammed, the complete opposite of her image in the west.
They didn't fuck up.
They clearly did, if this is that much faster than dmg then they fucked up with dmg.
This is not a full sized disk format
Nothing I wrote makes it even seem like I'm confused about that, except to people who are confused by mice with more than one button.
This is basically approaching raw disk performance.
Yes, I read the fine summary. Some of us do that.
What was it about the implementation of dmg that made it so much slower, and why did apple think it was okay?
There are really two parts of a vaguely modern vehicle that are attacked by the results of using ethanol fuel, fuel pumps and the injection equipment whether that's a carburetor or a fuel injector. Those parts have steel bits, including jets or nozzles, and the ethanol draws water in from the atmosphere and then it evaporates. That leads to corrosion of these parts.
Ethanol is a potential problem for hoses and seals, but this is only usually an issue for much older vehicles and the fix is pretty easy, except where carburetors are involved. Then they need to be re-sealed, and if there's not a kit available, that requires making new seals on a laser cutter. And those are still moderately expensive.
The fuel isn't the problem. Basing ethanol production on topsoil is the problem.
Sandia NREL proved in the 1980s you can grow algae economically in open raceway ponds, and you don't even need to add algae. The air will do it for you, and the most efficient algae to produce at your latitude and in your local conditions will outcompete other strains so you will automatically get the most beneficial species for production in your location.
The focus at the time was for lipids for biodiesel production. But you could as easily produce ethanol. Or more intelligently, you would make butanol using the ABE process, which also produces some acetone and some ethanol. Octane can be adjusted by mixing the butanol and the acetone. The ethanol can be used as an industrial solvent, far away from fuel systems, where it draws in water.
