Easy to play? I guess you guys don't use the initiative rules as written :p

Marxist?

I meant would.

Its not like Germany was really disarmed after WW1 and without occupation the limits on their military could hardly be relied upon. They simply left Germany far too powerful after WW1.

If stopping Germany would have been a minor effort at that point the French could have done it themselves.

Whatever PPI is necessary to make it invisible.

Don't even need to get much subwavelength, half wavelength is already enough for a 180 degree viewing angle.

That said, materials which can do this are hardly new ... OASLMs were first used for holographic displays approximately 2 decades ago AFAIK.

Some real work goes into perfecting the taste of snake oil medicine as well ... doesn't make it any less of a fraud.

Well Intel still makes microprocessors and Microchip still makes microcontrollers in the US.

If you want ARM ST makes micros in Europe which is an ally, oh wait ... scratch the last one.

People do not use Apple laptops because of how well they support greasing up the display ... touch is a sideshow for laptops and desktops, only Microsoft tried to make it a main event.

If the particles can get through cell walls they mights interfere with cell processes without being reactive, seems less likely than with the catalytic metal nanoparticles we are pumping the environment full with ... but I wouldn't rule it out.

I thought you were talking about SWAT snipers for a moment.

But the dollar is only stable because they are still increasing their reserves ...

It is the reserve currency because at one time it was as good as gold, any stability it had after that was because of inertia and because Saudi Arabia became a semi-state of the US ... the inertia is clearly running out, unless Saudi Arabia picks up more and more of the slack the US dollar will have to lose value as the US's trade balance adjusts.

I assume they have an architecture license and are not implementing some macro.

The fact that they don't have their own fabs is a bigger problem.

Degrading security in encryption code is a whole lot easier than putting an internet approachable backdoor in a microprocessor ... you aren't going to hide the latter in a single line bug.

If they let the position go unfilled I guess there wasn't really enough need, ie. not enough profit in it to hire the expertise which is on the market (and there are still plenty of the old guard doing consulting, not cheap obviously) or train someone.

Quick, we need more H-1Bs to suppress wages.
