I wouldn't suggest that there is no use for this kind of camera. Yours is a good example. But for the cost and risk of damage, that is not something that most would want by default in a laptop.

Also I have a phone with a camera for that purpose

Why would you be sitting behind the screen? If you need to film a conversation between two people with one webcam...have the webcam face their profiles

To answer your question directly- because it wouldn't serve a need that users typically have.

Multiplayer games should have toggles to allow more than 4 people. Why do we need to install mods or change a 4 to a 6 in some config file?

This obviously doesn't work for games like It Takes Two where more than 2 players would be senseless, but your survivalcraft game shouldn't be limited in the same way.

I actually think their first album has much more of a unique sound than that second one.

There is nothing worse than a soggy or extra sour grape in the bowl

It's gross regardless, yes, but the movie explicitly states that they cut away or change cameras during moments like this, even into his adulthood.

Aren't there many hundreds per year? As in more than one per day? I'm probably conflating mass shootings with school shootings. Even still, it's probably best practice to share an article in case this forum is where an individual gets this kind of news.

I just don't see how this isn't the process. If you understand what the dollars and cents mean then it's still just adding 1. I was also a cashier for years and never ever saw this be an issue. I met or trained dozens if not hundreds of cashiers and this was never such a problem that couldn't be learned. If you can be trusted to handle cash you should be able to handle adding small values to a number

You seriously couldn't be bothered to add 1 in your head? Honestly, that is terrifying. It also makes it so you have less work overall. Handing a $10 is much easier than handing a $5 and 4 $1s.

And then the state foots the bill....providing money to the company you are angriest at. That doesn't work for OP's scenario

[–] derekabutton@lemmy.world 16 points 4 months ago (2 children)

That doesn't stick it to the industry though. Still gets them paid. It's not about saving the money from what I can tell

With that in mind, you have a good point. Hard to imagine.

 

When the world needed you most, you vanished.
