Yes, it's also what North Korea uses to refer to itself and the Korean Peninsula.

They’re also paying Microsoft for Office365 and this is also only part of their likely expenses.

AWS has a classified cloud host as well.

There is Classified AWS. Also Azure Government Top Secret.

The New York State Liquor Authority has released a statement indicating that the Dolan company’s unique lawyer ban could lead to Madison Square Garden (MSG) losing its liquor license.

See here. Part of the reason this news is they’re going after MSG’s liquor license.

It's now 24 owners max, they recently dropped the total number of owners.

They won't be allowed to buy the team. You have to have one owner with at least 30% of the team and no more than 24 people in the ownership group in total (though I think there is some wiggle room for spouses), and a combined net worth to show you're not buying the team leveraged (you can get loans, you just have to be able to pay them off instantly if needed).

The NFL will shoot this down instantly and they won't even be allowed in the room to appeal.

That shouldn't be an issue since Blackberry hasn't made a phone since 2017. It just licenses its name now to other manufactures to slap on Android phones.

The 30 Meter Telescopes protests center around Maura Loa on the Big Island and not Haleakala on Maui.

Maura Loa is both higher and more isolated than Haleakala making it the preferred telescope location.

Other countries with public health systems are being overwhelmed or close to it. UK is creating new tiers to rationing care, France is in another strict lockdown to try and delay the surge of cases, Italy is beyond capacity again, etc. If you didn't get the virus under control early and continued to suppress it, your country is either over capacity or heading there shortly.

Don't get me wrong, there are major problems in how the US delivers and pays for health care, but no one anywhere public or private builds a system with that much spare capacity to deal with a nationwide surge in cases like COVID is generating. Basically if you didn't get the virus under control and suppressed at an early stage, you're screwed and they're all making the same choices to triage care with the limited resources they have.

Now a days yes, but NT started around 1988 and byte code to recompile wasn’t really a thing due to the limitations on processor speed, memory speed, disk speed, available memory and disk space. Recompiling for each arch was the preferred method of the day, and the process they inherited from how things were done in VMS.

The Alpha ports of Windows lasted for as along as they did, because it was part of the agreement with DEC to keep supporting them after it was clear that the internals of VMS to implement NT, to the point where they probably violated some patents. To avoid lawsuits, they agreed to pay DEC and continue to support Alpha until HP, who eventually acquired the platform, decided to close it and PA-RISC down in favor of Itanium.

They did. NT was originally built against MIPS and then ported to x86 and Alpha to prevent programmers from doing any x86 tricks. The whole Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) architecture at the core of NT is in part to allow them to support multiple archs without too much rewrite. The problem was the market had zero interest in anything other than x86 clones, since any MIPS or Alpha machines were orders or magnitude more expensive and none of the old DOS software ran on them at least at first. Same thing with later ports to PowerPC and Itanium, with only the ARM port getting some traction because Microsoft is the main OEM.

PKI is good for a lot of things, but sometimes it's best not to over think this.

1) The voting with PKI in the paper assumes there are national ID cards. The US doesn't have that or anything close to that.
2) Voting needs to work with the actual citizens of this country, some who don't have computers, most who don't have an ID card reader, etc
3) Voting needs to work ALL the time. Power outages shouldn't stop the polls, computer problems shouldn't stop the polls.
4) Voting needs to be verifiable by anyone easily.

Some of these schemes will work on the small scale, but paper and pen\pencil methods while the seem archaic actually do the job quite well. Adding computers into the mix as the one guaranteer of the vote will just make things worse, as states that went to all computerized systems found out after they were all the rage in 2000. They're just too complex, assume a technical sophistication of everyone, cause too many issues on the day of, and people really freak out once they find out there is no good paper trail, so they've all been retired or in the process of being retired.
