... look to be rising. Why? Likely because pro teams, and their players, are getting more and more greedy. Meanwhile, the viewers suffer.

I use the Debian-based version on Mint.

The excerpt is worded poorly.

Somewhere around 2-3% of American adults are taking GLP-1 drugs for any reason.

12.4% of American adults who take GLP-1 drugs now do so specifically for weight-loss purposes.

All the more reason to avoid Microsoft apps.

And this just days after the unique numbers assigned to objects in orbit passed 66000.
I think this Starlink launch will put us past 66100, actually.

... why should I trust Microsoft to do this to me?

I hope this leads to a decrease in the amount of SMS spam I get.

Make it the Apache Software Development Foundation and it'd be the easy-to-type ASDF.

(Oh, but wait, MIT already has an ASDF, the Autonomous Systems Development Facility.)

At least around where I live, if a cable provider wants to offer service in a given town, they negotiate a deal with that town where the town gets a little bit of money per cable customer. That money funds things like community-access TV stations, staff and gear, studios at high schools, and so on, so you can watch the local sportsball team, or whatever boring town government meeting, and so on and so forth.

Those community-based things have taken a huge funding hit due to cord-cutting, so they (and towns) have been curious about whether something similar might be worked out for high-speed broadband on a per-customer basis. The local community-access station here has also started looking for sponsorships from local businesses and such, to make up the gap in funding.

Came here for a UDP reference, leaving happy.

A union? Couldn't they call it a horde or something?

I ran a dedupe on my drive and eliminated 8 redundant copies of the goatse guy.

Im not a Max user, but I remember Netflix having account tiers for different amounts of streams at once or whatever.

After that, it seems simple, just use a FIFO. If youre allowed N streams, have N streams going, and another person logs in with the same credentials and starts a stream? You just disconnect whoevers been on the longest. Maybe pop up a little message saying "your account allows N streams; a new stream was started from [IP, Geolocation, sub-account profile, whatever] so youve been logged out." If the person who got booted is smart enough to log right back in, whoever connected right after them gets booted. And so on.

The problem would resolve itself very quickly, although it would temporarily result in a huge increase in the sentence "Police said the victim and their attacker were known to each other."

If Palmer really wants to make a difference, rather than trying to copy an American company's product that is currently manufactured overseas for price reasons, he should try to copy the overseas manufacturing processes, capability, etc. I'm pretty certain CNC lathes, laser cutters, EUV lithography equipment, et cetera are all available in the US for anyone willing to spend the money. US-based flexible contract manufacturing capability, immune to tariffs and ITAR, could definitely be a thing.

Yes, this. UNESCO doesn't "do" science, it promotes international cooperation in science. About twenty years ago, when George W. Bush was President, I went to UNESCO headquarters in Paris for the "Third Global Conference on Oceans, Coasts and Islands," convened by something called the "Global Ocean Forum," led by the late Dr. Biliana Cicin-Sain. At that point in time, the Forum was hosted at the Gerard J. Mangone Center for Marine Policy at the University of Delaware.

That was an age when the US saw value in having a leadership role in global policy on things involving Education, Science and Culture, the ESC in UNESCO.

We now have a President and administration that sees Education, Science and Culture as things to be attacked. Times have changed.
