You forget. Republicans feel persecuted 24/7, its part of the mentality.

If there was an excess of labor I'd say a national program to encourage 32 hour work weeks with a livable wage. :Less would get done per worker, yes, but that worker wouldn't be so burned out and they may have less sick days and less mistakes. It wouldn't compensate fully, no, but the government could arrange taxes to encourage 30 hours instead of 40 in order to keep the population itself more healthy. That said, there is a labor shortage, so I'm not sure it would work, maybe it would.

By English he means "writing skills". The ability to write a comprehensive essay or documentation is a skill that is often overlooked in engineering classes.

Lol, well it stopped calling anyways. I did just find this. https://www.reddit.com/r/Googl... sounds like the same issue. Oh well, they phone is long gone now. We wern't sure what to do as we couldn't pull the battery and it kept turning itself on if we shut it down (likely the power button issue).

One of my friends Pixel 3s was crashing and dialing 911 itself the other day. It did it 3 times until we finally pulled the sim card because we got tired of telling 911 there wasn't an emergency. Traded it in for a Pixel 6 the next day. Wondering if it was all Teams fault??? I don't think they had Teams installed??..

The hash function wasn't strlen, the internal function used to determine which memory bucket to place a function in was strlen in order to quickly search for the function. At the time a true hash was overkill and slower.

I've seen this done successfully. They widen the neighboring streets and shrank the street with the heavy foot traffic while providing additional parking. It made the street much nicer and didn't make through traffic horrible in the long run.

Nope, mail is ballots are not fraudulent and and of themselves. But the mail in system is more ripe for potential fraud. Its fairly easy to catch fraud when mail-in ballots are a small percentage, but when mail in ballots become 90% of the vote, it becomes much more difficult to detect fraud. We also have issues of anonymity. Someone could pay or threaten you to vote a certain way. With mail in ballots you can prove you voted that way. With in person voting someone can't prove how they voted. We take this small risk for military because we aren't willing to not allow the military to vote. I absolutely think we should have mostly mail in ballots this election due to the pandemic, but it doesn't mean its a great solution long term until we can develop additional security measures.

Its really not impossible, just very difficult.

A few q-tip factory wouldn't have much issue retooling to make that many swabs, the problem comes in the analysis. If you are doing RNA testing its possible to finish the test by dunking the swab in a chemical bath, something that "can" be mass produced, but not yet. Retooling factories to make these test are the real issue, and few factories would be willing to spend a billion dollars to retool for a job that will only exist for a few months. This is where government "could" surge money into, but I haven't heard of such, maybe it is. I doubt it.

Yes, I think trolls will be a big problem. Though its slightly self correcting. First, avoid being in close contact with any teenagers, something I already do. Second, send a team to test a significant portion of those who self identify. If the individual alarms more than once falsely, the person will now have some untrusted mark, and they can't go into stores.

Things don't really take a month to get delivered, they are just setting expectations so that you are happy when it only takes a week. It Could take a month though, you can certainly cancel your order if you find it in your stores or elsewhere. Things are getting delivered as fast as possible.

I think being a Lite distribution their goal is to be able to run on modern light systems like small tablets. The old Lubuntu code will still be out there if you want to run this on your ancient computer, but this is a solved problem as far at Lubuntu goes, if they want to further develop it they need to shift their goals.

In DC (where I am) no such thing exactly exist. You can get monthly cards that cost you the cost of 18 (36 one way trips) of your selected distance, its a seriously weird system.

In many places it can often be a Bus->Subway->Bus which can easily be over $10 for people who need to get across town. If you UberPool esepcially if you buy a monthly pass you can get Uber to under $10 a ride.

Its possible they are both evil, but every issue is unique. I'm not sure if their patent held merit, but abusing sovereign immunity to keep a patent is ridiculous.
