“Falsehood flies, and truth comes limping after it, so that when men come to be undeceived, it is too late; the jest is over, and the tale hath had its effect: […] like a physician, who hath found out an infallible medicine, after the patient is dead.” —Jonathan Swift
How did you come to the conclusion that section D does not apply?
I didn’t. I came to the conclusion that the criteria in Section D have already been cleared, because Section D discusses the cases in which the warranty will not apply; both parties clearly agree the warranty applies because Samsung offered Louis compensation. I don’t understand what warranty you were reading or why this is so difficult for you.
Specifically what part of Section D concerns you?
I can’t imagine how he’s going to get them to pay him more than what he paid.
I have no idea why you’re citing “Section D”. Section D is about the limitations of the warranty/liability, and that clearly doesn’t apply (they offered Louis compensation for the warranty; both parties agree this is within the bounds of the warranty). Sections B, C, and D have been met because both parties agree they have been.
The warranty (Section A) reads:
Samsung will, at its option, either: (1) repair or replace the Product with new or refurbished Product of equal or greater capacity and functionality; or (2) refund the then current market value of the Product at the time the warranty claim is made to Samsung if Samsung is unable to repair or replace the Product.
Samsung therefore has two options: 1) repair/replace the unit or 2) pay Louis the current market value. That’s not even slightly ambiguous. Even if you agree that “at its option” means that “unable to repair or replace the Product” is 100% up to Samsung regardless of its actual ability (which it appears to be), that still means they owe him current market value, which is in the ~$900 range – not what he paid for it. You’re way off-base with your assessment.
(edit: “does not apply” was, I hope, clearly intended to mean “in reference to this conversation because the criteria have obviously been met”.)
I’d say the play here is to buy a new one and return the old one but do a label swap.
Louis addressed this in his video. He pointed out that he’s suing in large part because Samsung is penalizing the honest way of doing things. He wants to promote the honest way by setting an example, and good for him.
This is more like a proper comic book format rather than a comic strip – where a comic strip is fairly short, this is dozens of panels long and is serialized from the similarly long previous episode. Still a cool comic, still a very based format (CC BY), and it seems like the first couple episodes are more like comic strips, so Pepper & Carrot itself isn’t the problem.
Either way, seeing as I saw this way too late and it’s totally benign (just poorly fitting; I would try a proper comics/comic books community for future episodes if they’re like this), I’m leaving it up.
TL;DR: Comic strips short; consider something that would reasonably fit in a newspaper alongside other similarly-sized comics.
It’s an SCP containment field made to look like a run-down chain link fence.
Then there would be professional candidates who just never accept a job start getting blacklisted really quickly from a means of income that’s vastly more difficult, less fulfilling, less stable, and less efficient than just having a stable job.*

The Times of India is a rag that literally accepts bribes for positive coverage; sensationalist garbage is their bread and butter.
But it gets worse: this story is over two years out-of-date.
The KSTAR Research Center at the Korea Institute of Fusion Energy (KFE) announced on the 20th that during the ‘2023 KSTAR Plasma Campaign’ conducted from December of last year to February of this year [2024], it achieved a 48-second operation of ultra-high-temperature plasma at an ion temperature of 100 million degrees and a record 102-second operation in high-confinement mode (H-mode).
This happened back in 2024. Here’s a paper.
Lemmy/PieFed is federated; it’s their instance, and they can do what they want to the extent that it’s legal where they host it. I saw the community crop up on the front page earlier, and yeah, it’s gross. It’s posted by the admin who runs the instance, so if you think it’s especially egregious, you could petition the Lemmy.World admins to defederate and hope they agree. If not, you can block it.
(Also, Rule 5: AskLemmy is not a support community.)
But all of these are one off bits
Well that and the question was about “between the group”, i.e. intra-group entanglements. The only one that’s intra-group here is the first (to which what you said about a one-off applies).
Addressed the Charlie and Dee thing below; I just don’t consider a one-off, single-episode B-plot like that 10 seasons into the show (with a later throwaway joke in one episode three seasons later) a “romantic entanglement” for what’s an ongoing 17-season comedy show.
Mac’s crush on Dennis is the closest we come, but that’s still very distant from “romantic entanglement” to me; that implies an entanglement, where in reality Mac’s one-sided crush is infrequently referenced and pretty much always for laughs, and Dennis clearly demonstrates at every turn that literally nothing will ever come of it. The audience is always deliberately shown that this will never turn into anything; there’s no “will they, won’t they” going on because the answer is always and in perpetuity “won’t they”.
TL;DR: There’s no actual arc or plotline.
Yeah, it does happen, although I still went ahead with the comment because I don’t consider that a “romantic entanglement”.
“Entanglement” to me implies that the two or more characters have ongoing, mutual romantic feelings for each other that are explored or at least consistently shown over multiple episodes.

That’s a great question, with a lot of possibilities for insightful discussion. You appear to be referencing interrogation footage of the Parkland high school shoo
