So I also agree that monarchs are pretty stupid. I don’t think the guy is perfect. But at the same time, if you happened to be born with a name/family that got you media attention, wouldn’t you want to use it to better the world? I don’t know much about this guy in particular, so it’s quite possible he is bad in other ways. But the way I see it’s not different than a kardashian raising awareness for something good. Should there opinion matter more than other people? No. Do i not fully understand the physiology of the people that watch celebrities lives with rapture? Yes. But are the people inherently bad? No.

Huh I didn’t think South Africa was much of a player in intelligence service games after the end of white majority rule. Learn something new everyday.

I like the idea of it; yet you can’t host private repos. I don’t want to be locked in to GitHub but as someone starting their career it’s important to show that you’re working on stuff. Hence I worry that moving away from GitHub will negatively impact my interviewing prospects.

Yeah that’s what I was thinking. That they were using stalls to do makeup. I supposed I can chock this up to my application of Mens public restroom culture (in the USA) where you try not to make eye contact and avoid one another. This led me to think that crowding around the mirror would be an uncomfortable experience for everyone involved. Hence, the stall being a more private place would be more comfortable with a pocket mirror or something but hey live and learn lmao

I mean you could do separate lines or something for that— but at the same time maybe that just means you need more bathrooms if there is a significant line. Also maybe making a separate powder room would reduce the lines by directing those who want to do make up or something to a different place.

I think finding sources for things is good. It doesn’t invalidate the message; there are plenty of photographs of malnourished children in Gaza without CP. Was it internally misleading? I don’t know. But I think we can assume the benefit of the doubt that the writer just chose an image from search results that looked emaciated.

Lmao typo

I have an i7-2600 prebuilt for my NAS— is idle most of the time, bought it for $100 4 years ago. Have pretty cheap power at like $0.12 per KWh, but again mostly idle so probably doesn’t cost much anyway.

I dunno I was a teenager last decade; sure people got anxious when there were the drills, but mostly people are desensitized to it.

It’s sorta like hearing about a fire in a far off place, or an earthquake, it could happen here, and that would be scary, and you feel bad, but at the end of the day if you let yourself worry about it you would just be in a constant state of panic.

So you talk a bit about legislation afterward and then go back to worrying about finding a job that pays a living wage. Since that economic catastrophe is not, as in the former case, a matter of statistical bad luck but an approaching inevitability.

We never know there could be a huge mega virus or giant mass cult death or something look on the bright side /s

I think this is dumb— not because he shouldn’t do it— or that it shouldn’t be illegal— but all the presidents since Bush Jr have used the same vague authorizations for fighting terrorism to justify strikes all over the Middle East and Africa— so there is precedent even if stupid precedent. Instead congress should just rescind those articles and take back their war declaration power. Except that they would also have to revoke the 1950s document that lets the president basically carry on a war for 60 days… it’s stupid, but I don’t see impeachment for this offense possible and just weakens the threat for the future. But maybe it’s already toast.

I feel this legacy auto really needs to catch up— I just don’t get it they have the money just hire 50 good software people and stick them in a room for 1.5 years and they could have a nice polished stack— just get your legacy hardware / software people to offer a nice api with good documentation for querying sensor data for the non critical infotainment system.

Under rated comment— is planned excercise in Finland it seems although they don’t mention tankers so who knows

I would say it can sometimes be nice to have an old Laptop for this purpose, you have to slightly over build your solar but can be nice to have a mouse and keyboard attached and monitor, ssh works. Still have an hp laptop with a core i5 2nd gen sitting out in my greenhouse, is a little more power hungry but not terrible on idle, and is nice to be able to configure changes to watering without going back inside or wrecking the zen by bringing phone.

One side doing bad things doesn’t make another side doing bad things ok. Democracy isn’t perfect but it is better than the rest of the systems. Money in politics sours the pot.

Eh I dunno there’s so much infrastructure that is human centric; if you could make a humanoid robot it could easily traverse all the human designed places

Ok this is interesting can I ask how you know that they scaled back their compute? Without looking into it too much it seemed like they were full steam ahead (revamping three mile island).

I mean it didn’t seem to work out for Portland; maybe in a perfect world but in a world full of stresses and homelessness it seems like it might hurt people who get addicted and exploited. But would be fine legalizing weed and shrooms.

You should back up your windows 10 pc as an image and use it as a virtual machine on the Mac or some other Linux environment. Once support stops nothing really bad would happen, besides security stuff and maybe perhaps some unexpected hugs. So you could just disconnect it from the internet too but the VM option isn’t reliant on the hardware which could go bad.
