I visited Activision in the mid 1980s, when it was a shoe-string operation. Games for the C64 were coming along and quite impressive, including Little Computer People, which was running on a desk over a weekend to check for stability.

Seems it's all about IP these days.

Maybe like me, whhttps://slashdot.org/poll/3205/what-was-the-worst-version-of-windows#oever created the poll blocked it out of their memory because of PTSD?

Having used versions of Windows going back to 2.0, I have to say 2.0 and 3.0 were far worse than WindowsME.

And even the relatively stable 3.1/3.11 releases should have been made TCP/IP friendly far earlier in their life cycle.

Also, grouping Windows 10 and 11 together is not a good idea for this poll. Having used it for a few weeks now, I'd say Windows 11 is a bigger departure from Windows 10 than Windows 10 was from 7.

Even free-range cattle are typically provided salt-lick blocks.

Perhaps the seaweed could be added to the salt blocks? Or provided in feed made available near the salt blocks - though that might alter their "grass-fed" certification.

spoiler...it's a rock.

If this can be used for a replacement for steel and aluminum in even a fraction of their current applications, it could be very significant in fighting climate change.

Aluminum and Steel production are significant carbon producers. (iron & steel production contributes 11% of the human-produced CO2, aluminum about 2%)

But wood captures and sequesters carbon.

So it's a win-win.

If we don't switch to wooden knives, we might have to instead give up eating steaks altogether.

A prion disease that can be contracted by a simple pin-prick might explain the brain disease now being found in New Brunswick, Canada. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/04/world/canada/canada-brain-disease-mystery.html

(also - this is terrifying!)

So I guess you didn't even read the clip of the article Slashdot posted???

"In lab tests, researchers found their catalyst yielded not only hydrogen peroxide, but a variety of highly reactive compounds called reactive oxygen species, or ROS. It turned out that these novel compounds were responsible for the majority of the new disinfectant's impressive antibacterial and antiviral abilities..."

If I was concerned about Coronavirus I would simply not be a second rate nuclear power.

So grateful, its removal has been a pain in the butt continuously every day since its removal. (like, even in composing this post)

Glad this is finally getting addressed at the National level. I remember hearing about this story five years when Jimmy Johns was preventing former sandwich makers from taking jobs at Subway.

No hourly and/or temp employee should be bound by a Non-Compete clause. They serve a purpose when an employee is actually creating IP, but those employees must be compensated adequately for their contributions.

Amazing how quickly morons adopt the terminology propagandized by their party's political officers. "Insurrectionists" indeed.

Though I did enjoy your Beautiful Mind-level tapestry of innuendo, projection, and theorizing utilized to support it.

> According to the Open Data Córdoba group (which is dedicated to tracking expired Argentine domains) Google's domain had not expired and, in fact, the expiration date was in July. But the group too was unable to explain what had happened or why.

That's incredibly unlikely since most doctors don't want to be seen as performing assisted suicides.

No, letâ(TM)s wait another 20 years then do it. Then this will be even more pointless.
