Perhaps you should just grow up.

No, he's talking about actual genocide, not the sick inversion in which Israel is falsely accused of genocide.

They often killed any captives they didn't hold for ransom, but not always. Sometimes they released them alive but mutilated them, e.g. by cutting off a hand, so that they could not fight again.

In any case, why not use LibreOffice calc if the number of cells is a problem. It allows up to 1,073,741,824 cells per sheet.

It sounds like they should just restore their old site, of which they presumably have a backup, at least until they can fix the new one.

We know it weakly interacts electromagnetically, which means one of the ways in which it is posited planets form, initially via electrostatic attraction of dust particles, isn't likely to work. This means dark matter will be less "clumpy" and more diffuse, and less likely to create denser conglomerations that could lead to stellar and planetary formation.

What this finding does suggest, if it holds true, is that some form of supersymmetry, as an extension fo the Standard Model is true. Experiments over the last 10-15 years have heavily constrained the masses and energy levels of any supersymmetry model, so it would appear that if this is the case, it's going to require returning to a model that some physicists had started to abandon.

Without knowing precisely how Explorer is structured, it's conceivable that there may be different dynamically-linked libraries and/or execution points for running the desktop and for the file explorer, in which case just having explorer.exe running in and of itself doesn't mean that new modules have to be loaded if explorer.exe process fires up. The solution could very well be to load the libraries involved in file browsing when the desktop opens.

Just guessing here. There was a time when there was a lot more horsepower required for GUI elements than folder browsing, but this is 2025, and explorer.exe probably uses orders of a magnitude more resources now than it did in 1995, because... well, who knows really. Probably to sell more ads and load up more data to their AI.

That, on modern hardware, they have to preload a fucking file browser so that it pops up faster is just an indication of what a steaming pile of garbage MS is. They had sweet spots with Win2k-WinXP and with Win7, but their incoherent need to be a whole bunch of contradictory things --- with AI! has led what was a rather iffy OS and UI experience to begin with to become a cluster fuck of incoherence.

I do most of my day to day work on MacOS and Gnome, and fortunately the Terminal services version I have to RDP into is Server 2016, but every time I have to work with Windows 11 I'm just stunned by just how awful it looks and how badly it behaves.

The capacity of the government of a large jurisdiction like California, or more particularly the US, could bankrupt someone like Musk, so I say, bring it on. Within a decade Musk would have abandoned all efforts, or, even better, be stone cold broke (frankly billionaires shouldn't exist at all, and we should tax the living fuck out of them down to their last $200 million).

We're too afraid of these modern day Bond villains when we should be aiming every financial, and probably every real, cannon straight at them and putting them in a sense of mortal danger every minute of their waking lives, so that they literally piss themselves in terror at the though that "we the people" might decide to wipe them out for good.

What is this obsession with pedophilia? I'm really getting rather suspicious of MAGA. I suspect your average Catholic priest or Southern Baptist youth pastor thinks about nude children less than most MAGA individuals.

There is such a thing as an armed security guard. The Louvre unfortunately didn't have any.

Since when do the city schools suck? Palo Alto is a wealthy city whose schools are considered high quality. Perhaps you are thinking of East Palo Alto, Palo Alto's poor neighbor, many of whose schools are not very good?

It isn't just a preschool. And the neighbors' complaints aren't just about the school traffic. They're about constant construction, which is reportedly noisy and obstructs the streets, and security staff whose activities are not restricted to the Zuckerberg's property.

"homeschooling" is teaching one's own kids. When you're teaching somewhere between 14 and 30, most of whom are not your own kids (the Zuckerbergs apparently have three), and you employ teachers to do it,, it isn't "homeschooling". You're running a school.

I would think that this would be an easy bug to fix. It sounds like it is isolate to one place in one file. Is there a technical reason why it took so long to fix? Or did Microsoft just not feel like it? (I do almost all of my work on GNU/Linux so don't know a lot about MS windows.)
