But quoting it implies it’s an invalid claim.

Interesting. I read the quotes as meaning: someone else said it, it's not just some opinion we made up. In this case, it was reporting the coroner's official finding.

In other words, I understood it to be reinforcing the claim rather than invalidating it.

Why are we quoting each other? I remember the comment before yours. I made it. Idiot.

Because quoting in a response provides structure to the response that improves readability.

Also, you are posting on a publicly accessible forum, not having a one-on-one conversation. In that context, that fact that you may remember what you said doesn't mean that it's not beneficial to repeat it for others.

The "idiot" comment was unnecessarily rude where someone was engaging in what appeared to be a good faith response, and only brings down the tone of your entire post.

Why so often? I just updated my almost 10 year old PC that had one gpu upgrade in its life, and was still happily playing the 10 year old games I wanted to play.

Then I got the new PC with decent specs and decided to push its limits with some Stardew Valley.

Possibly he knows that, and is just trying to bleed his supporters for donations until the last moment.

The article has a paragraph later on that says:

In rejecting the plaintiffs' claims for damages, the court said, "It cannot be said that discussions at the Diet...regarding provisions not allowing same-sex marriage are clearly in violation of the Constitution."

I suspect the plaintiffs are only appealing that aspect of the judgment.

In our previous house, we discovered that a component of the roof guttering was a tomato sauce bottle with a hole it. It was doing the job, so we just laughed and left it where it was.

Stewart's line about how can another administration be more absurd than the Bush administration dated surprisingly badly.

There's plenty of good reasons to dislike Woolies, but them making a commercial decision to stop stocking products that people aren't buying is not big on the list.
