If you like nothing, there is nothing wrong with that. All that I can say in favor of nothing is that it adds nothing to its products, but on the other hand, it doesn't add anything to the products. So if the product nothing is marketing was good before they don't touch it, then great. But if the product was crap before, it will be released as crap. They're mostly a transparent branding company that just adds nothing branding and does the regulatory bits to get it importable.

Yes, its sad to see. My father got made fun of back in the 1960s, which is why he gave up his greencard .... "Why are Indians starving? Why dont they eat the holy cows off the street?"

The answer is simple. The oldest Hindu scripture, the RgVeda states that God is the loving consciousness within all living creatures, immanent and transcendent. People call Him or Her by diffent names.
Thats why most Hindus prefer to be vegetarian, and particularly consider cows as sacred, because they give us milk, and we cherish maternal feelings for them ... I would rather not eat my Mommy....Karma reincarnation and all that jazz.

That said, most of us are very open minded.... my Dad taught me to do as the Romans do... I used to enjoy my BigMacs... until my cholesterol levels went up.

Also, one of the gravest humanitarian crises in modern history, leading to the deaths of an estimated three million people and further affecting millions through forced starvatjon of native Indians by barbaric butcheristic Britisher invaders

Insighttful comments, thank you.

Yes, most Hindus (80% of the Indian population) are orthodox and family oriented (like Catholics). Incidentally, see
https://www.amazon.com/Hindu-C...: This autobiography traces Francis X. Clooney's intellectual and spiritual journey from middle-class American Catholicism to a lifelong study of Hinduism. It explains how he came to fashion comparative theology as a way of learning interreligiously that is boldly intellectual and deeply personal and practical, lived out in intersections of his roles as theologian and scholar of Hinduism, as professor and Catholic priest, and over the tumultuous decades from the 1960s until now, in his role as Parkman Professor of Divinity, Harvard University.

I see many Indian-American weddings happening, from a quick youtube lookup.

BTW, I love Somerville, Boston, NorthEnd, and surroundings.... guessing ftom your nick that you are from there. Spent 19y there before moving to warmer California for the weather and family.

As for cheese, I still love all the stuff that comes out of Wisconsin.

My Daddy came to the US from India in 1963 onboard the QueenMary, for his Masters, worked at NASA and stuff before giving up his GreenCard due to racism. He thinks he found the BigFoot in the mountains of Oregon, and made many Super8mm movies of Disneyland n such that we are trying fo digitize to utubez

Long Story short, my sister and I came here to UGA+GATech and have found Americans wonderfully creative and accepting (only a couple of racist events in my 25 years here ... [came to somve tge Y2KProblem], one from a rude farmer at Bostons HayMarket after 9/11 with my newly married (now-ex) wife.

Even after that unfortunate incident, a Texan colleague offered to beat up saud farmer with his motorcycle buddies.I of course declined, but digested the event eith a couple of beers. A felloe immigrant haymarketer told .me to ignore the uneducated racist basturd.

The Hands that built America by U2 is nice (from the
Gangs of New York).

Peace, Live Long and Prosper as Mr Spock might say (Leonard Nimoy grew up in MA too).

Exactly. Dharma, Meditation, Yoga, mental and physical wellbeing should be the driving factors, not an endless ratrace if economic growth.

By Colonialist invasions, I mean stuff like this brutal Goa inquisition where tge so called Christian saint but actually a brutal monsyer cut off Native Hindus hands off for not converting to Christianity. WTF.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wik...

Just like the barbaric invadic Muslim Empetor who built the Taj fucking Mahal for his dead empress using Hindu laborers and then cyt their hands off and blinded them so they would nit build another monument like it again.

Double WTF. I would be wary of invading barbaricc foreigners given this invasionist colonialist crap.

Insightful comment. Speaking as a proud American of Indian (Asian) origin, of 25 years [ GeorgiaTech + ex MIT startups ]

I agree and would like to add that India is currently overcoming its hangover of British invasionist colonialism and failed Islamic conquests (similar to the Spanish inquisition).

But by and large, India is pretty tourist + investor/startup friendly, especially Bengaluru, the Silicon Valley of India. Goa, etc ... e.g.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=...

Also, I am more alarmed at the open air drug use & violent crime rates in the US : as compared to India with 1/9th the population density (3x landmass containing 0.3 of the population). :/

You have zero evidence for any of that and the assertion is a retarded as you are.

Trump obviously does not believe there are any unexplainable connections between him and Epstein, or that he ever did anything with Epstein that would ultimately be judged unacceptable by the public.

He cautioned a lot of names would turn up, but also ran on releasing those files. Trump also being Trump expected to win! He knew he'd be in a position to release the files and given his other follow thru probably expected to do. Trump is innocent and he knows he innocent and everyone else will too if the stuff actually comes out.

The real issue with releasing the files is obvious to anyone with two functioning brain cells. After the election Trump found out someone close to him or some critical House, Senate, Court members are really implicated and it really could be anyone including family members. It also might be something like one layer removed, could be some close associate of Bondi or something like that as well. With razor thin majorities nobody knows politically how that plays out or how to deal with it. Naturally nobody told him before hand because they either did not really think he could win, or were just afraid to tell the man bad news (a legitimate problem with Trump style management).

One thing we do have evidence of is that the DOJ is sitting on a lot of information the administration and nominally people like Bondi, Bongino, Patel, have near total procedural control over. The could probably have some LLM redact all the names and address of victims and release it quickly. Would AI get it wrong and enable doxing those people, certainly. However nobody cares about that kind of boobery anymore in government, the public is totally desensitized to it, it would certainly be less of scandal and less of political problem then what they are doing now is for them. So I'd say confidently even as a ardent Trump supporter, he is protecting someone(s) politically important to the GOP or a familiarly member.

I would guess it is pretty common in large enterprises. Most of them will have some custom identity and access management solutions, even if it just glue to make some actions in PeopleSoft/SAP/Pick-your-HR-IS-SaaS-thing trigger events in AD:DS/Entra/Okta/AWS-IAM/etc.

Maybe they don't have an account themselves with access but if they commit some code that gets promoted to production and runs with account privileges that do...well bob's your uncle.

Generally but not always. I used to work with a guy who got promoted to director. He wasn't terribly good at it. It was a shift lower management that he was very good at. However it also represented the change from tactical problem solving to strategic thinking and to pitching ideas and convincing people you mostly report to ie VPs, and C-Suite, vs organizing people who mostly report to you.

It was perfectly clear to everyone, including him after 8 months or so he was just not working out in the new role. Ended up making him a sort of floating-manager-fixer-internal-consultant guy. They'd have him startup new groups, and be made co-manager of struggling groups. He'd get everyone organized and move on. He was great at it. He might even still be there, kinda lost touch. Certainly a "demotion" in terms of authority, but a bet fit for skills and interests. I don't know what it meant for him dollars and cents wise, but I could tell he was lot happy doing that work and getting accolades for it than he had been coming in for the past three months wondering if the CTO was going say "Bob we gotta let you go."

"as it pertains"

was included to acknowledge that TPM does / is used more then secure boot.

I am not ignorant of the topic here at all. The facts are plain, Microsoft and various industry plays got together and created a regime where having your platform be certified as 'secure' is now fully pay-to-play. Anyone else want to offer a PC operating system and have be accepted by the world of media services for DRM, as accepted client for corporate networks that can meat any kind of host-check-posture policy, etc basically has to pay Microsoft to do it!

Got one shred of evidence to the contrary?
