Gonna find the pedophiles, Nazis, and who killed Epstein?

Isn’t this the use of the “ready room”? Picard had fish, old things, and the “totally not a TV, TV” on his desk.

They never care. They have been deporting citizens.

To be fair, this has happened before, and I understand it was far hard for the bacteria then.

There was a time when cellulose could not be broken down. Trees fell and piled up for … miles? Anyway, then bacteria figured out how to break it down. (We also got coal from the trees that were burred.) Anyway, we still build out of cellulose. Sometimes we treat the cellulose, sometimes we don’t.

Plastic may, or may not, end up the same way.

Hard to know if there has been a hack if no one is looking for it.

The scroll at the top of the page sometimes changes, and “hold shift to draw” is one of them. Shift-C to clear.

Weekend commits are actually less likely to introduce vulnerabilities, but they take 45% longer to fix.

I can only think of contributors being nice and relaxed, doing their most brilliant work. Work that is a bit too brilliant for the same contributor to fix any bugs found during any other conditions.

insert that one quote about being too smart for one’s own good

Edit: Weekend commits are 8% less likely to have bugs, but those bugs take 45% longer to fix! This site is gold.

Edit 2: that may not mean what it looks like at first blush.

People have different levels for what they consider that other “people realized the truth”. Many communities are full of people that know the truth and when they act to change things get knocked down.

As the Saint George Carlin once said “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”

There are a lot of really, really stupid people out there. Poverty, stress, hunger, etc make people even more dumber.

No OP, but with Snowden, a lot of the general outline was already known by those that pay attention. The specifics were new, but also largely filtered with “the government’s side”.

I want to push back on this part:

Only if Microsoft acquires a major CPU chipmaker.

In the USA, and other parts of the world, a small number of Billionaires are buying up everything. A small number of wealthy people could each own a part of the supply chain and for it on the vast majority.

For extra enforcement, add in a legal or cultural push for reporting or shunning violators through the media companies owned by that same group.

Just adding links for the lazy…

The computers in the store, yes. I expect all computers in the store to be phones and the cell company will verify.

Open Source computers will be more important. Might need to brush up on wire wrapping… (Implication being that chip supplies might become dedicated to only those manufacturers that lock the product down.)

“You cannot answer one illegality with another, because that is how the great catastrophes of humanity begin.”

Any services that can help with this?

Either on the “Your made mate!” or a “here let’s make this more anonymous”?

The old version didn’t and some retailers still sell that.
We have found customers prefer the experience with the app! It is just the the experience without the app, but more modern. iOS only for now, but an Android version is expected soon!

Good for Chen and Ban! They deserves better than 996.

This will be interesting impacts on China if it becomes a larger trend, though no reason to think it will become a much larger trend.

Chen used to dread the grind of her nine-to-six job, which she said “felt like marching to my own death.” Now, she wakes at 10 a.m. every day, filling her days with cooking, chilling, and long walks on the beach.

“I never believed that work is the meaning of life,” Chen said. “My ideal state of life is not to work and stay at places that I like.”

Curious. Why would there be hundreds of items disparaging America? Perhaps we should discuss this. Perhaps feature each item on TV.

An unrelated bit cool about clay from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clay_mineral.

Given the requirement of water, clay minerals are relatively rare in the Solar System, though they occur extensively on Earth where water has interacted with other minerals and organic matter. Clay minerals have been detected at several locations on Mars,[15] including Echus Chasma, Mawrth Vallis, the Memnonia quadrangle and the Elysium quadrangle. Spectrography has confirmed their presence on celestial bodies including the dwarf planet Ceres,[16] asteroid 101955 Bennu,[17] and comet Tempel 1,[18] as well as Jupiter’s moon Europa.[19]

Unexpected. Huge if it works.

Reminder for self: 2030 is 4 years away (not 30.)

Is the lesson not to get hit by a missile?
