My opinion is simply that when everyone open carries, I will have a harder time discerning who is a threat and who isn't.
Quite the opposite. When everybody becomes a threat, determining who is a threat becomes child's play.

Doors... Locked. Check.
Lights... Off. Check.
Nest Protect(tm) Carbon Monoxide detector... Silenced. Check.

Now just wait six hours before undoing all of those, erase a few logs and then wonder how such a tragic accident could have taken place. And you didn't even need to call a SWAT team.
I want nerd news back.
Okay. It's Friday afternoon, you still don't have a date, and knowing the names and histories of all of the Transformers doesn't seem to be helping with that.
Alaska, Spirit, and Frontier are tied for the highest fuel efficiency score, while American beats out Allegiant Air and Sun Country for the lowest spot.

As the lucky owner of one of these fine computers which were outfitted with overperforming nVidia GPUs, every few months I run into similar problems. While I could go a little over the top in addressing the issue, all I really need to do is turn the thing upside down, remove the bottom cover, loosen the heat sink covering the GPU and then turn the poor thing on and let it run for up to half an hour. Since the GPU runs hot enough to loosen its own solder, it also runs hot enough to put it back.
Eventually entropy will catch up with me and the poor thing will die of some other cause, and I will have to let it go. But until then, a little heat-related abuse can be a good thing.
This article is basically saying that research and innovation are bad. That's fucked up if you ask me.
