This is also why a lot of beer and other alcohol is bottled in brown bottles. The brown glass blocks some amount of UV exposure which can affect the final product over time.

Green glass has no such benefit though. Just looks nice.

If they've got 4 fruits left and they're all hanging over the fence then they just harvested their tree. Let's not look for hyperspecific edge cases here we're discussing a rule of thumb.

If it's overhanging public property it's fair game. The owner has plenty of fruit on their side too I'll bet. If they take issue with it they can guide their plant so it's confined to their property. That being said I wouldn't be reaching over the fence to yank a cucumber or apple.

MMOs to MOBAs to BR.... On and on and on. Publishers being 2 years too late to a trend and trying to jump on the train after it left the station fucking over their existing fanbase in the process. The MBAs in charge of these decisions should be fired.... Out of a cannon into the sun.

As someone who is also awkwardly treading the line between being a soulless hack and trying to get my work noticed by literally anyone: please edit your top comment with a link to your game.

I mean it. I can't even muster the courage to post my renders to Instagram without feeling like some desperate influencer goof.

The point of a thought experiment isn't to creatively invent your way out of answering. It's to give you a lens to examine your beliefs. The trolley problem can be a train problem or a giant falling safe problem or a two-bombs-with-a-button-to-switch-detonators problem. The specifics aren't there for you to fantasise they're there to give context to one of the most entry-level problems in ethics.

You didn't impress your philosophy buddies by refusing to engage with a hypothetical. You made them groan and then they laughed about you when you left the room.

The philosophy majors did not like me pointing out it was ridiculous to imagine the problem existing in a void with an absolute limit on possible courses of action.

Holy shit you did it! You beat philosophy! ^^^/s
