And people gave Jared the money they did because he's such a swell, likeable guy?

Laughs in Windows 10.
Terrible how Microsoft abuses it's paying customers.
Service packs these days aren't what they used to be.
Customers should really consider whether Windows 11 is the right platform for them.

Man, Slashdot has changed over the year.

There ought to be a +5 Bonus for 5 digit UIDs.

"An act of war" and you got upvoted?

I agree with the majority of the Senator's comments, and certainly the sentiment, but the Smithsonian is not unique - NMUSAF is also freely open to the public, and has a sizeable space exhibit.

Personally, I think there was no real justification for them to go to any museum that charges admission.

Hell, if you shop off-lease and refurbs, you can get a namebrand mini PC from HP or Dell within this price bracket, with gobs more power. Might have the same "old WiFi" problem, but at least on those it would be a replacable module.

It's amazing how easily you swallowed that AI generated fanfic. Kash must be so proud.

DEI is not "reverse discrimination". It's saying "if we have equally qualified candidates, we should prefer diversity over homogeny."

It's how you get away from corporate board rooms that look like an Elmer's glue bottle.

I love to hate on Microsoft as much as anyone, but why is this written as "Microsoft is refusing..."? Microsoft is selling a product that isn't designed for the needs of SPD. Why on God's green Earth the SPD is proceeding with the purchase knowing full well it's a non-compliant product is beyond me, but it's certainly not Microsoft's fault assuming they deliver what they're advertising.

If the law compels me to buy an electric car, and I go buy a gas one anyway, it's not the car dealer's fault for not converting it for me.

And you think 12c/kWh is a good deal? I just pulled Ohio's rates on Energy Choice Ohio, I can lock a 12 month fixed contract today at 8.29c/kWh, no ETF, no montly fee. If you're a heavy user, 6.69c/kWh with a $14.95 fee - in case you're not a mathemetician, break-even is 935 kWh/month average usage.

> When a state declares itself a Sanctuary State for, say, immigrants in the country illegally, what the state is actually doing is interfering with federal enforcement of federal laws, commonly referred to as obstruction.

Incorrect. And there's actually a very recent court decision that concurs with what I'm about to say.

No state (government) actively interferes with Federal law enforcement. Sanctuary cities/states take the position that they're under no obligation to render aid to ICE et al in enforcing Federal immigration law. A Federal court backed this opinion (again) in State of California et al v US Department of Transportation (25-cv-208-JJM-PAS).

Which ironically, you proved my point in your own post:

> it isn't the state's law to enforce

The states are saying this, and the Trump admin is trying to punish them for it - which is unconstitutional. I will also point out that the Constitution limits Federal power - the 10th Amendment says that powers not expressly enumerated are reserved to the States. I always find it amusing how all of these "strict constitutionalists" are suddently not when certain states do things they don't agree with.

That's not even considering someone like LTT, who could by the card at retail, test it, scribble a sharpie signature on the fan shroud, and sell it for more than it was bought for - ignoring profit from the review itself.

Parent poster was referring to the fact (I assume) that electric cars have to use electric heaters since they don't have an ICE engine and radiator to scavenge heat from.

I know we want to make them "electric" cars, but I don't see why they don't build in a small gas heater of some sort instead of using a wholly-inefficient electric heating element. My house is electric, but I still use gas for heat. And if we can make a safe 20 gallon gas tank, surely we can make a 5?

I was an avid Pebble user back in the day, and still think about it and WeatherGraph fondly. It did exactly what it was supposed to do, did it well, and because it wasn't bloated with a bunch of stuff no one asked for it had a ~week battery life.

Looking forward to hopefully more devices coming out.

>We need REAL science, not quasi-political pseudo-science garbage

OK, so try this. I omitted the rest of your ramble because you clearly have no understanding of math. You postulate that the stated pre-industrial average is incorrect because thermometers from that era would be accurate to 1 degree at best, correct? Setting aside the fact that wouldn't be the case - as you could design a fairly wide ranged mercury thermometer if you so chose - we're not dealing with a single day. We're dealing with an average of 365 - the number of days in a year.

One degree of temperature divided into 365 days yields 0.002739xxxx. So 1.48 is well within the calculable range of precision of a single-degree accuracy thermometer when dealing with a yearly average of daily samples.
