They're transporting ICE agents dressed like Proud Boys in literally the exact same kind of Penske rental truck that the Proud Boys dressed like ICE agents were being transported in, now.

You mean toilet research networks?

For once I got in one which word was triggering the lame filter, it was r e eye c h. Once again, the owners of Slashdot are willfully providing aid and comfort to literal Nazis of the past, no doubt in support of the Nazis in the white house. These B!zX clowns are like Elon Musk except without any success or cachet.

Even by your logic, as long as we are following Trump, we do treat our closest allies like dirt. But more importantly, your logic is incomplete. A real government would have meaningful checks and balances to prevent a new shitty leader from fucking everything up. Ours clearly doesn't, so clearly nobody can trust deals made with us. Of course this was always obvious, for example we have broken literally every treaty we made with the Native Americans we went on to commit genocide against. Nobody should ever have trusted us.

This point really came home in WWII when we delayed entering the war and did a bunch of war profiteering by selling supplies to both sides. We provided critical war materials to the Third Re!ch including metals and fuel. Without us they would have gone nowhere, literally.

What part of what Intel "accomplished" while it was receiving those incentives was yielding good results? They failed at a whole-ass process under those incentives, and laid the foundation for another whole-ass process which is failing right now.

Why is profit not sufficient incentive?

Nobody will follow Vance. He has no crowd work skills.

Nonsense. The goal is to have a faster bus. This is great no matter what you're doing with it because you can use fewer lanes to do the same job. All that shit is just buzzwording for attention. Look who it worked on.

LANDSAT's measurements are affected by moisture and pressure, the OCOs' aren't.

GOES is geostationary. NASA cancelled another craft ("Geostationary Carbon Cycle Observatory") because the OCOs did a better job than it would, in part because of the orbit.

Record player actions. Use randomly-selected other players' systems (from a pool of those who are playing on the same map) to verify those actions which you flag as suspicious during times when they are waiting for other players to join a match or similar.

We had several of them in Santa Cruz county, including a really huge one in Capitola, and a super tiny one in the inland side of the Beach Flats just off Ocean Street. I think there are still two there.

Large #9, two scoops of avo, on wheat. Just absolutely my favorite sandwich anywhere.

"which makes this disgusting to fiscal conservatives with a working brain."

No such though because austerity doesn't work.

The luddites wanted all workers to benefit from increases in productivity, the Republican party wants the opposite of that. So no.

"Physically handicapped players who need custom controllers to be able to play at all can get locked out simply because the manufacturers refuse to make the needed hardware."

It's generally pretty easy to connect your own controls to the official controller's PCB, Don't the people who make such controllers know how to do that?

There is no issue with latency in detection of cheating on the server side, unless you insist on stopping it before it happens. That would be nice as it would prevent cheating, but it is not necessary. As long as you are requiring accounts, then it's good enough to detect it after it happens and ban those accounts. If cheaters had to buy another copy after every time they cheated, it would drive them out of the game.

Check out the moderation and you can lose it again :)

I think you have to include Office in the list of things they used to do "right" or at least in a way that supported their business. Notably Excel, which used to be the absolutely most usable spreadsheet that there was. IMO Word peaked with Mac version 5.1, but it used to be pretty good too. Both are now more difficult to use than LibreOffice, and also have more stupid bugs. The one that keeps irritating me with Word lately is saving a document which ends in a list. If and only if you leave the cursor on the last character of a document like that, it will add another (blank) list item AND another paragraph after it when you save. Not sure if this only happens on a quit save or not, I haven't bothered to find out, but either way it's fucking trash.

Anyway, ahem, the point is that Windows and Office had synergy. TBF though, some of that was skullduggery. Specifically, Microsoft was caught using internal functions for Office apps, where the public (published, documented) functions were literally the same functions but with a delay loop. If they had been the same function but with a semaphore they might have had a valid argument about being more familiar with their internals, but that was just obvious anticompetitive fuckery.
