Dumbest take ever. Xbox runs Windows. Xbox games are sold for Windows. Xbox can not be separated from Windows, period.

This legal system is a shit joke.

It's designed to fail under the weight of its own bullshit.

Microsoft will never appreciate your mod abuse, clown

Well-loved? How many people were using it? Follow the chain of links and you'll see they never actually say.

I long ago lost track of the number of times I've needed to use the command line to fix something on Windows. You weren't doing anything very complicated if you never did.

Most of those people can't do shit. They will need people around them. If society really collapses then they're just more mouths to feed and those other people will kick them out of the doors of their bunkers if they're lucky. Too bad most of those people aren't smart enough to figure this out.

It might well wind up being nobody. There will be signal-hunting drones.

Thanks for tracking that down. To me that's the real news here. Reactor vessels are not the only application for this technology.

It's a dessert topping and a floor wax. This was an unusual feature of UNIX, but since then it's become the norm, albeit with everyone else inheriting it from there. You can write MS-DOS scripts with complex independent logic, you just don't want to.

I don't know that I've learned it "properly" to this day, but I can thank The UNIX Programming Environment for making me basically capable. (I believe that my paper copy is a later edition than this...)

Silicon Carbide is difficult to work with due to the high temperatures required, so if they have a 3d printing process that is effective at producing the kind of quality needed for a reactor vessel, that's what's really interesting here. Or... whose tech are they using?

It's not a lie. The unemployment rate is crap. Both parties like to use it to lie about how good things are when they are in charge, which is why most of them don't want to kill that goose.

It's destroying the planet. Sustainability is job #1. SMH here.

No, it literally is not an ad hominem in absolutely any sense whatsoever, period. If you think otherwise, you may or may not be stupid, but you're definitely ignorant. I could have phrased it some other way, if I were trying to be dishonest, but that is not what I do. I'm not here to be nice about shit ideas which ennoble or enrich shit people, nor to coddle their enablers.

Ad hominem means insult from a person. It is an argument that an argument is false because a certain person made it. It literally does not matter whether an insult is involved, although it can be. The fact that you're issued moderation points for a site like Slashdot when you're so eager to be so fundamentally wrong about what something means is utterly pathetic. This is exactly why moderation should be public, so people can know whether it means anything, or it was executed by someone who has no fucking idea what they're on about. This is also why moderation is and always has been fundamentally broken on Slashdot. Posting and moderating in the same discussion isn't allowed, but the people who are most qualified to moderate are also the people who are most qualified to comment.

I also note that you failed to understand the part about comments whose sole purpose is to insult and enrage, with your comical focus on insult when that is not even the core of what ad hominem even is. It's especially amusing that you quoted that section in light of your inability to understand either thing.

Now go away, or I shall taunt you a second time.

lolololol etc ad infinitum.

You don't even know what an ad hominem attack is, since I didn't make one.

Learn what words mean before you use them, kid.

I guarantee it was an off the shelf device running their app. It's the elon phone!
