Many people know recent cars have too many powertrain defects (some common to the big 3) , but for now pretend cost cutting. 200K is not bad on a good day. Dealers are unhappy about lack of spare engines, and being paid next to nothing for huge complicated jobs. (See Daves Auto for instances of dealer reluctance ). Established car makers have had a lot of uncle Sam subsidies and handouts. BYD is now making mini RV's to suit the homeless multitudes. Ready, setty, GO.

Try replacing a Dell LCD screen. Yep, you need a MS account.

Every unnecessary line of code compromises security. In a professional environment like government, police, law courts, lawyers - should not be playing games. Now graphics drivers have a lot of privileged level 'glue' . We do not want ports or memory exposed to garbage collection browsing or salvaging. Size wise Windows 11 is obese, dripping with lines of code vulnerabilities. Corporate needs to remove LOC that serve no good purpose.

Right now most AI's do a shitty job when picking which stocks to buy - that also understands Horoscope reading and faith healing. Now Ronald Reagan did do horoscope consultations. Obviously if you ask about Iran outcomes, not knowing the phases of Jupiter or Mars is critical. US Military does not employ enough fortune tellers either. I think you will find all the other AI or (PI - Pretend Intelligence) engines out there lack sufficient gypsy training.

Replays of McHale's Navy, Gomer Pile, Rin TinTin, Baywatch, F-Troop and other classics

1) Donkey snot generator .. Donkey snot is a repellant can can be classed as CB or other.. 2) Ass's femur personal defense baton 3) Enemy given free unlimited TikTok and Youtube premium access and sports channels 4) Dropping MAGA caps on the enemy to improve morale 5) Gateway misdirection. AI engine is actually sent to Pretend Intelligence(PI) engine 6) Live streams in enemy language of Monty Python the Holy Grail. We fart in your general direction.

Looking an many insecure adsl modems and bios, they are coded and maintained in Taiwan, using American setup shims, and a good dose of open source code. China deserves to be banned for not making things open source, or at least a copy in escrow. I remember one govt upset about Israeli security software, and the answer was 'sure you can look, but only inside the Israeli embassy. Back in my day, critical systems were never connected to the internet, and anything with an eeprom never made it to the secure product list.

Forget AI, Pretend Intelligence or PI is the new go-to. Formerly GIGO Garbage In Garbage Out, Vs Expert Systems famous for negative returns. Just one correction, in space vacuum , it is very hard to dissipate heat, let alone feed power Hungary memory. This tells one we are close to worlds tallest building downfall.

Fair enough. But those Microsoft conferences also have to be paired back to the bone. Besides, SIGNAL, ProtonMail and OpenBSD are changing spots as it were, and upping the game to add to the costs of breaking, and introducing distributed keys in different countries, that run counter to enough bribes will fix things. Presently mobile phone offerings contain a suspicious amount of CPU security bugs. Does anyone take apart all the unnecessary includes in the compile, and question why compiles failed?

Shoplifters work in gangs. The only way to control theft is to limit exits between segments. Ikea is a good example. US shoplifters are more brazen. FaceID, and scales to measure their weight i/out is also an option. Someone in HK can tell others the size of the old Chinese Emporiums.

Lasers need a honking big power supply, think 20ft container size. Capacitors to drive it are juicy on radars, and the emf spike is triangulated. Overdriven lasers, wear out. There is a lifetime, and it is not huge, maybe a low as 100 shots. Weather and rain. 5km range, but 1 km would be more like it. Drones and glide bombs are SO cost effective in wiping out both tanks and container sized trucks. So basically expensive kit, restricted use. Probably best to guard Patriot like million bucks a pop systems. Best bang for buck is getting out of war and into peace.

I get some of this. But people who have visited before and caused no problems and say retired. it should be about risk management. There should be certainty before arrival. Tourists bring in money and jobs. Some say these new rules are hurting the genuine tourist biz. Better to remove guesswork out out the equation.

Subway and Macdonalds have made the board food prices smaller in size (the food as well). If I cannot see the price, I walk. I will get some transfer stickers printed, If the food is not in legal serving temperature range, please return it to the counter for exchange. I have an IR thermometer and use it.

Australian Restaurants pay $32 hr plus weekend and public holiday surcharges, and overtime. And put 12% into our superannuation guarantee. For some time, menus are often loaded with weekend and public holiday surcharges. Nothing is cheap, so a no to tipping, and I would report the restaurant on the spot if they did any ambush tricks. Now about who IS paid below average is service station telllers, and most salad bars. Franchisee owners #1 problem is rapacious rents and rent increases, not wages. Staff not turning up without notice, is perhaps #2, with insurances and utilities up there. Like America , Macdonalds sales here, are down 6-7% across the board, despite 30%PA increases on some items. A number of food places are now closed on Mondays.

Good point. Because of all the obese people, radiology tests are up. Knee jobs, Because women are delaying childbirth, more breast cancer detections, as well as men's enlarged prostates. there are a number of foreign countries that have affordable imagery, including India and Brazil.
