Injury Caused by Firefighting Aftermath

Posting simply out of curiosity. I am not the party affected by the incident detailed below.

A tailor's building caught fire due to a dryer being left to run overnight. Firefighters contained the fire, preventing much damage to the surrounding buildings. However, the shoe store next door was affected with minor flooding from the hoses, including water damage to their product and a mess on the floor. When the shoe store manager arrived in the morning, he was completely unaware of the condition his store was in. He slipped on the water, seriously injuring his knee and preventing him from working.

Can he pursue legal action over this injury, and who would be most liable?

[LFH][PC][USA/CAN] Open-Back Wireless Headset

My friend tried out the Turtle Beach Atlas Air Wireless headset, and it was almost perfect. Very lightweight and comfortable, sound was okay, and it being both wireless and open-back was exactly what they were looking for. Unfortunately, after just a couple days it started having horrible connection issues, and we had to refund it. Looking for an alternative with the same feature, but a little higher quality.

Home Page button sends to wrong place

I'm a new Firefox user, and I'm in the process of setting up the browser to my liking. One of the first things I did was add the home page button to the toolbar, because I like to be able to get back to a fresh tab without having to open a new one. However, another setting I changed is now conflicting with this. I've customized the startup so that a new window will have youtube and a few social media tabs open, because I use them every day. Unfortunately, this means that now the Home Page button opens up these several tabs, instead of bringing me back to the Firefox home page. Is there any way I can fix this so that the Home button brings me to a fresh page, but startup opens my socials? OperaGX was able to do it just fine, and I'd be disappointed if Firefox couldn't do the same.

Help Me Identify my Childhood Bread

When I was very young, there was a local bakery we would sometimes stop by on my way home from school. From there, we would get the most wonderful bread rolls, but eventually it closed down, and it was a few years before I had that kind of bread again. But eventually my mother found the same sort of bread at a larger grocery chain, which leads me to believe it wasn't a specialty of that particular bakery, but again it was only a few years before we couldn't find it again.

The bread was an Italian style roll, with what I believe was semolina flour on the top and bottom. But what was unique about it was the texture. It was incredibly soft, outside and in, and would almost collapse on itself right in your hand. Taking a bite was like biting into a cloud. I'd love to know if there's a specific name for this sort of bread roll, so I can go hunting for it again. It would be so nostalgic to have again.

New Site for Casting Anime to SmartTV

It seems like this sub is getting flooded with a lot of "AnimeKAI replacement" discussions, but simply having a place to watch shows isn't the issue for me. The problem I'm running into is with casting shows from my Android phone to my SmartTV. Many of the new sites I've tried lack a casting button on their player entirely, and the ones that do have one fail to display any media on my TV after they connect to the device. Anybody know a good site that can cast smoothly? Preferably with a decent library of both current shows and old stuff too, but I'll take what I can get.

Help Solving a Hypothetical Gaming Scenario with Math

Imagine a game in which you have four stats - lets call them [Str]ength, [Agi]lity, [Int]elligence, and [Sta]mina.

In this game, there are five different Powerups that each raise a number of your stats by different amounts (for example, Powerup A might grant +2[Str] +1[Int] and +1[Sta], Powerup B could give +2[Agi] +2[Int] and +2[Sta], Powerup C gives +2[Str] and +3[Sta] etc.).

If you knew the exact distribution of boons from all five different Powerups, is there an elegant way to calculate how many of each Powerup you would need to raise your four stats by an equal amount?

LF: TM226 (Dragon Cheer) FT: Negotiable

Been rocking with Eviolite Dipplin for several gyms, but it being not-fully-evolved means its leveling up a lot faster than the rest of my team, so I think it's time I finally go for the Hydrapple. Willing to offer anything in return that I can feasibly get my hands on at around gym 7.
