If you want to ban these you're going to have to give something up. Maybe not you personally but certainly some of the people reading this.

You have to change how you vote and doing that means giving up other issues. These are going to typically be issues that appeal to the right wing, especially culture War issues because you can give those up without it directly impacting your civil rights or your income.

That's a tough sale for a lot of people especially anyone older. And they can always just tell themselves, hey I'm not doing anything illegal why do I care? Meanwhile the cop shows they watch every night on cable television are going to tell them how these cameras are the best thing ever for catching those evil evil criminals...

Some cops are bad cops. Some cops are presumably not-bad, but have done a piss poor job of policing the bad cops.

I don't like city or highway driving. Country roads and off road are my preference. And if I'm commuting, I'd rather catch up on my inbox or read a book than white knuckle down the mountain in heavy traffic.

You also have to give them achievable parameters. "You are always responsible" is not realistic. In some cases someone else is, in fact, responsible. And that's the rub of regulation, not that I think this means we shouldn't regulate, but it's going to always be true that doing it well takes effort. You can only ever reasonably expect that people are moving forwards (at best) and doing what is reasonably and humanly possible, and hopefully advancing the state of the art. Determining whether or not they are doing that is inherently complex.

It was known what would happen if carbon fiber was used for the hull in a submsersible nearly a decade earlier: See the DeepFlight Challenger: "Based on testing at high pressure, the DeepFlight Challenger was determined to be suitable only for a single dive, not the repeated uses that had been planned as part of Virgin Oceanic service. As such, in 2014, Virgin Oceanic scrapped plans for the five dives project using the DeepFlight Challenger, as originally conceived, putting plans on hold until more suitable technologies are developed"

It wasn't about "toes". People died. You seem to be using the same strawman tactics as Stockton Rush.
Everyone else: "This could kill people."
Rush and you: "Your feelings don't matter."

Except they didn't. They did not even try. The Titan was using their second hull after the first one developed cracks. What did OceanGate do differently to prevent cracks in the second hull? Nothing. They did not change the formulation. They did not change the design. This was the concern voiced by James Cameron. Cameron was excited about the possibility of developing new forms of carbon fiber for submersibles. Until he learned OceanGate was not developing new forms of carbon fiber. They just used existing forms which were known not to be suitable.

I have no idea what you are talking about "departments". People have experimented using carbon fiber for hulls. They were found to crack under multiple dives. That's it.

Then you should know the phrase very well: "Regulations are often written in blood." You seem not to understand it though.

It's abuse in and of itself. I am so sick and tired of other people giving up my rights because they don't understand what the repercussions are of giving up their rights. I'm not so stupid that I can pretend I don't have to live in the same society as they do.

But I mean what the hell am I supposed to do in a country where we are about to give the Iranian dictatorship $300 billion of taxpayer money and 37% of the country is cool with that because they think it's going to be private money. Like what the hell do I say to somebody who thinks like that? There is a fundamental breakdown in thought processes in this country with over 1/3 of the country unable to think and reason rationally or competently..

C doesn't have strings, but sometimes people like to have some bytes with a 0 on the end. Some of the memxxx() functions are useful with C's fake strings. For example, memchr() is good for when you have a null-terminated string but it also some upper bounds. And stuff like strncpy() doesn't appear to have anything at all to do with null terminated strings, and is grossly misnamed.

You know you could just look up the Congressional hearings yourself. Were they admitted everything I said.

It's all on the record. It's funny but Google says different things when they are under oath then when they are talking to you. Almost as if they don't respect you in the slightest...

That's how it used to work here in the USA. Then the subsidies were terminated in favor of forcing students to get loans. Then a US senator led a campaign to prevent those students from discharging that debt through bankruptcy. That senator's name was (and is) Joseph R. Biden.

The boomers got the handout. I don't want anything they didn't get.

I don't expect to get it. I do expect to immediately discount any bullshit from the hypocrites who got it and think I shouldn't get it.

You didn't get it, and you're insisting nobody deserves it because you didn't get it, which is sad. You're sad.

OK, how do we provide this feedback? The article is chock-full of links, but not one for that. It gives strong "get fucked" energy.

Since it's not worth putting out the effort to figure out where to submit some comments they definitely won't give a fuck about anyway: In no way is it a "first class" anything when it's only for GNOME and only in a snap. Let us know when it's ready for prime time so we can test it out and decide if we care. There's a 0% chance I'm going to use GNOME or snap.

Users do want this. Watch the final part of the recent Linus Tech Tips Linux Challenge. Three of them switched to Linux for a month, and they all kept using it afterwards. Previous challenges had them going back to Windows.

The two big things that changed are Proton making games work, and AI making solving Linux problems less painful. They all commented on the reaction they get when asking questions of the Linux community. It's often hostile and unhelpful, telling them that they don't actually want to do what they want to do and should just do something else, or blaming them for picking the wrong distro, or some other off-putting response. When googling answers, often it comes down to a Reddit thread with outdated information that no longer works. AI is much more helpful and seems to check what solution is needed for their specific, up to date distro.

It makes sense to put an AI assistant in Ubuntu, for users who are coming from Windows, the biggest area of growth for them. If they properly tailor it to their OS, with relevant and up to date information, it could get around one of their biggest hurdles - the toxic community.

I see what you are saying, but also I'm not sure if I'd say it's a disability, but I certainly find typing stuff out is easier than saying it. Especially as I can edit it before submission, where as what I say is what the AI responds to immediately.

It's a lot like talking on the phone, which I also dislike. Face to face, people can see your expressions and when you look like you are trying to think of what to say or how to rephrase something, they can wait. On the phone, or talking to an AI, that isn't possible.

As long as they keep both options it's okay I guess.

So, "People With Disabilities Don't Exist" then?

My father was recently paralyzed by Guillain-Barré, so I'll let him know, thanks.

Yes.

So you moved the goalposts and declared victory? Good work, clown.
