Yes me too. Certainly the term "ICE" is used for immigration and customs enforcement far more often in headlines and should not have been used here.

"Internal combustion" is used to distinguish from "external combustion" (ie steam engines). Unless this was an argument about whether cars should use internal or external combustion, the term should not have been used in the headline.

"ICE" seems to have become popular due to the pun of "ICEing" somebody by parking your fuel-using vehicle in the way of them. That's funny but no reason to misuse the term.

If the Wayland developers had the slightest brains, they could have made it so clicking on any area that the application wants can drag the window and you would not have to search for the empty part of the titlebar.

This is called DON'T RAISE ON CLICK. It was figured out in X11 (one of the changes from X10).

Not just Wayland, Gnome developers also are bent on making sure overlapping windows and point-to-type is impossible. Witness how Gnome has buried the WM control to turn off raise on click and made sure things like applications raising their own windows are broken (for no reason what so-ever as there is no click) if you turn this option on. I do not have an explanation except that this is how Windows works (except Windows has worked with it for some time and has added kludges so that drag & drop can be done, at least).

Making the close button do something else, such as minimize, is totally possible (and all too often done) with X. It's not a Wayland only thing.

Personally I have NEVER EVER seen anybody "confused" because their title bars were different colors. Any such "confusion" would also apply to all the widgets *in* the window, which X allows to be completely different between applications. 90% of ICCCM is working around SSD to get the benefits of CSD.

Locked windows are handled with a timeout after which the server just moves/raise/lowers and even kills it (popup window to kill an unresponsive application is a feature of X as well).

There are a zillion problems with Wayland but this is not it.

Did you have the ability to compare the seat selection to another airline before you bought your ticket?

There needs to be the ability to vote for more than 1 candidate. With that a third party can actually work, as somebody can vote for them without "throwing away their vote" since they can still vote for the majority party. This is only going to help moderates as they need to pick up enough voters from BOTH parties, on the assumption that everybody will also vote for their side's preferred (and extreme) candidate.

The whole point of alternative voting systems is to choose MODERATES. It is to fight exactly what you are describing. Ranked choice (or approval voting which is better but less popular) plus a requirement that electors be proportionally represented to match the percentage of votes in their state, would make a huge difference.

For a large parliament you certainly will get a bunch of nazis and communists but a huge majority will be moderates. Currently the "right wing party is winning" but if you examine them it is hard to tell them from the "mainstream left wing party" and they often join with each other to get a majority.

No you really are not seeing it. The Little Mermaid would have been made no matter what. The problem is they really didn't care what script or anything else they used. Somebody did probably say "let's make it woke" and that was the deciding factor. But it would have been bad even if somebody said "I know, to be different, let's make it non-woke".

Your argument would work better if you didn't make up statments. What you are calling "alternative energy" is actually called "renewable energy", for precisely the reason you state.

I really doubt the amount of CO2 leaked from Nuclear reactor cooling systems is any amount to be concerned about. Also CO2 coolant is used in lots of other things too. Also suspect the source of that CO2 would have just leaked it directly into the atmosphere if nobody had bought it.

There are all kinds of problems with every power source, but making up nonsense does not help any arguments.

Say what you will about DeSantis but he at least is doing what he says. Making it illegal to hire illegal immigrants is EXACTLY the right thing to do if you actually want to reduce illegal immigration.

Unfortunately most Republicans just lie, they know that businesses are relying on cheap labor, so they never prosecute businesses and instead concentrating on making illegal immigrant's life as painful as possible (as long as they don't actually leave), and occasionally raid the businesses, in order to drive down the wage. Democrats also like cheap labor but seem more interested in having the government subsidize it.

I don't think that is going to work. The necessary mechanism so that the battery can be removed and replaced in a short amount of time will be expensive and heavy. And as a driver I certainly would be upset if some ripoff place replaced the good battery I had with a crap one.

That has some problems with the size of the reactor. There are also some difficulties with siting.

Advertisers will hate that as people will realize they are paying for ads.

I don;t know if perhaps you are joking, but this is what was tried before. What happens is they hide in the woods and on private property where they cause fires and kill wildlife and can hide after doing crimes, and they break into buildings and squat. They also tend to be much more likely to be armed. Visible homeless in tents on the street are actually a lot safer, and underpasses are pretty close to fireproof. Unfortunately the only solution is to put them in some structure that they can live in. IMHO I think the least expensive way is to make it marginally better than living in a tent so they will remain there (but certainly not good enough that they won't move immediately if they can crash at a friend's place). Some others have suggested what is effectively a jail, I think that might be expensive and it removes the ability to punish people breaking the rules by sending them to jail.

Awww he got you upset!
