Weber: I mean, I can actually give you a very good answer, because it's the answer that Andrzej Sapkowski usually gives: the answer is in the books. And in the books, Andrzej Sapkowski called Ciri a witcher multiple times, and Geralt called Ciri a witcher in the books too. So I think that basically says what Andrzej Sapkowski thinks about the topic.

Sure, I've always called ciri a witcher too but it was with the knowledge that she couldn't even attempt the trials but still received all the training. WHY DOES SHE HAVE CAT EYES AND IS ALL THAT LORE OUT THE WINDOW

It's a pretty old trope but it's usually a grave somehow connected to the murder and they get caught. Just gotta throw them off with a random grave.

75 definitely has some fat that could be trimmed but there are a lot of different biking activities that require different bikes. Wouldn't make it far on a mountain course with a flatland bike. I definitely tried but it was very difficult.

Woman jailed after using shooting suspect's catchphrase as insurance company denied claim. in c/[email protected]

Just want to point out that your example implies domestic violence is a lower level of violence, and as such this shouldn't count as a real threat?

Reading comprehension ain't for everyone.

Edit: on some reflection that might be a rude reply if you don't already know that domestic violence threats in the US are largely ignored.

I've met victims of domestic violence who were threatened much worse than "you guys are next" so I'm not buying this as anything other than the system trying to use her as an example.

Is it illegal to own a gun in Kansas? Can someone really pull a gun on you if all you can see is their back? Fuck cops.

It could be gang violence, shot by police, suicide etc

Why are any one of those lives less important?

According to that logic, in the future we'll be long dead therefore our actions don't matter. You sure forgetting the past is the right move?

Parsec Remote Access installed without user knowing (self.cybersecurity)

So I've got a few systems where parsec is installed and I can't uninstall it. Has anyone come across this? The only reason I know it's installed is by running a script that scans for RAT's. I can't find it anywhere else so it could be a false positive but it's a very strange one. Curious if anyone knows of bad actors using it like the other remote access software scammers use. The only difference is these are computers where no scammer has accessed via their usual phishing means.
