I have been attempted-mugged a number of times. So far the only time I've had stuff stolen was without my knowledge. Like pickpocketing.
1. In Barcelona after already being robbed. My brother and I got into a big fight with two guys. My brother tried to hold off his guy, while I smashed my mugger in the nose multiple times with my elbow, and he decided to get away. Just then the police turned up and just laid into the two guys with their night sticks.
2. Knife brandished, but I was just outside my hostel in Paris, so I shook my head and walked inside. I wasn't followed.
3. Ambushed in a souk in Casablanca. Three guys tried robbing me of my camera, but it was on a loop around my wrist. I shouted and was saved by good Samaritans.
4. A guy in France tried grabbing my girlfriend's iPad. She didn't let go and I punch the guy hard and surprisingly fast, and he staggered back stunned. Then he seemed to want to fight, or something, but I just kept between him and Juliane. Then some other guy chased him off. This happened in a town called Condom.
They totally count! They help you build up an immunity to bigger bullets!
Oh come on it broke the skin and everything! There was blood and tears, the whole works. You know how hard it is getting shot in the UK its a nightmare! An air rifle is the glock of the west country.
When I worked at a bank inside a grocery store, I was robbed. They presented a note and a bag. The note stated the robber had a gun underneath the purse she had. It was pretty damn scary.
It was a good thing my coworker noticed what was going on to sound the silent alarm as well as the person in line who followed the lady outside to get her license plate number.
Turned out to be some old lady that never did anything bad ever, but got into a situation where she really needed the money. She also didn't have a gun. When I think about it now, that lady was pretty stupid to rob a in-store branch where there are tons of people.
Is it just me, or has the tragedy died out in English-language filmmaking? Other than the rare gangster movie, I haven't seen anything good recently except out of Asia.
Does anyone use the Amazon music app for Android? I have it on my Nexus 6 and when I play music videos with it I have horrible stuttering problems. I tried playing the same videos on my Kindle Fire but that device is kicking back errors.
Does anyone here with more medical knowledge than me know if the whole story about Angelina Jolie getting more organs removed is actually a reasonable action or was she overreacting? I know she used "23 and me" and they've been criticized for giving people raw data which is easily misinterpreted. Like it may say you have a probability 75% higher of getting a particular cancer than the average person, which sounds scary, but the average person may have a 1% chance so really you only have a 1.75% chance. I'm just wondering if the media and Jolie herself may have misinterpreted the data.

I don't have the percentages on humans but I do for domestic animals and have operated on multiple tumour removals as well as organ removals. e.g. Queens (female cats) have approximately 80% chance of getting mammary cancer, which as you stated was scary. But the problem is that the mortality rate is reported at almost 88 - 98% based on which journal article you last read. Speying non breeding queens before 6 months reduces the likelihood of mammary cancer to 0% as development from hormone release triggered at puberty can't occur. However after puberty the likelihood starts to creep up and continue to increase as the patient grows older due to probability. (Remember cancer is just a result of a copy error on DNA which produces an erroneous cell that can be dangerous).
Beyond a certain age it makes no difference for the likelihood of cancer to occur. The percentages vary for canine mammary cancer and the 3 testicular cancers for cats and dogs. There are different recommendations for each, the University based and Veterinary umbrella group recommendations are also usually incorrect when taken in the strict scientific sense as they are altered based on societal impact.
Someone with more human based knowledge good speak more appropriately on the subject.
However based on the low mortality of human mammary cancer (assuming good health care), it is bonkers in my opinion, better to just get checked once a year, catch it early if it is going to happen.
Anybody know what is going on with The Escapist? Over the last year they basically have lost all their video content except for Zero Punctuation. Jim Sterling went full YouTube/Patreon, they basically kicked out Bob Chipman (probably because of disagreements about GamerGate), LoadingReadyRun stopped their weekly sketches (as was planned) and now they cancelled Unskippable because The Escapist didn't deem it worth the price anymore, LRR took Feed Dump with them, and No Right Answer has quit them as well. At least LRR says it was an amicable parting.
When putting stuff on Github, or version control in general, do you omit the compiled libraries or what? If you do, then what? Put instructions in the readme?

You generally don't want/need to have binaries in your version control. What kind of libraries do you mean? If it's something like standard libraries, they should just get linked locally when someone compiles.

Are these non standard libraries that accompany the source code? e.g. I have a personalised set of custom interfaces in my pegu.jar file, I upload that with my *.java files with a brief readme for people who don't understand how compiling with external libraries work.
Ideally the only things you want to include in your repository are things you wrote by hand. Anything else should be separate.
Let me use the code I work on as an example.
First off, we use a lot of Python libraries. We do not include these libraries in the code. Instead, we include a requirements.txt file that lists the libraries and which versions are required. Then each person who wants to run the code has to use pip/setuptools to install the libraries. This is as easy as pip install -r requirements.txt.
Then there are files that are generated. We write a lot of CSS, but we don't actually write it in CSS. We write in SCSS that is then compiled into CSS. The SCSS files are the ones we are writing by hand, so those are added to the repository. The CSS files are generated by running the sass command. It's up to users to run the sass command themselves. Including the generated css files creates a world of hurt for developers. They are only included in tagged releases so that they can be deployed without having to have production servers generate the files themselves.
What are people's thoughts on Tidal (artist owned streaming platform). The only way I see them dominating (which they could easily do considering the number of fans the owners hold). However they would need to make everything exclusive as people will not want to move from Google Music, Spotify, Rdio etc.
Why is assisted suicide as an option only being pushed for for the terminally or incurably ill? If a mentally stable, competent, and healthy adult wishes to end their life, is there any non-religious reason for them not to be provided assistance (assuming legality of assisted suicide and all that)?

Why do trolls try to sound smart when they're making a stupid argument?
Edit; for context.
It was a good thing my coworker noticed what was going on to sound the silent alarm as well as the person in line who followed the lady outside to get her license plate number.
