Do they work with my Monster Cables?

Both of you are right, Trumpers are incels and grumpy old folks who feel heard by the troll... opposition are anti-fascists who think protest makes a difference, regardless of age. This isn't primarily an age divide, it's a historical awareness and social empathy divide.

"When you go open-source, whoâ(TM)s responsible if something wipes an entire countryâ(TM)s data? Micheal McDoesntExist. Thatâ(TM)s who."

It's your in-house, in-country developers that fix it. You're not relying on a company based in a country run by an unstable regime that may or may not threaten your sovereignty.

Only of Netcraft confirms it.

Of course sales will be slow, they usually are... people are not as willing to buy a console that will soon be out of date. But, on top of that, Playstation (and other console makers) usually drop prices late in the life cycle for this very reason. Because of the AI house of cards, Playstation instead raised prices. To be honest, it's kind of surprising it's merely 25%.

Well it is the day after the US midterm elections, so for some it will be the end of the world in a metaphorical sense.

There's something kind of ironic about an awards show (the Emmys) that is primarily for a particular medium (broadcast TV) leaveing their own medium to get more viewers.

Yes the Emmys recognize some programming on cable and streaming services, but it was originally for, and primarily for now, broadcast TV programming.

That "something" is "I'll do it because it gets me money. As long as I get paid, I'm good with it and let the courts decide later on if it's legal or not."

Does this mean we should watch for price trackers online like we do for gas?

...is this fucking legal to withhold federal funding to strong arm states into anti-consumer policies?

Oh wait, it isn't.

Congress itself wrote into the BEAD statute that states must ensure that prospective subgrantees can carry out their projects “in compliance with all applicable Federal, State, and local laws.” And also “Nothing in this subchapter may be construed to authorize” the excutive branch's NTIA to regulate broadband. Trump is abusing a grant agreement to do something Congress explicitly declined to authorize because state laws were already expected to be a part of getting the grant money.

So, as per usual, Trump is just being a bully and making shit up.

"...the sun is now coming down from a period of heightened activity, which is also when some of the biggest storms to hit Earth have occurred in the past."

As opposed to the big events that happened in the future? Has somebody been time traveling and not telling us?

I'm thinking these are dealerships that are forced to carry EVs and have chargers by the manufacturers as part of their dealership agreement. So they jack up the rates, block the chargers, etc. to discourage use then tell the manufacturers "See? They don't sell and the charger isn't used so let us out of the EV requirement."

Open source doesn't rely simply on users making code changes, it relies on a specific subset of users. Feature developers are users who are also coders and who are also able to get up to speed on the project and who are also skilled enough to implement it and are also able to navigate the politics of the project.

If the feature didn't get implemented, that person for the original implementation has probably already left the project long ago. In many cases because they weren't a supporter of the re-architecture.

It could be because a given feature-developer wanted the production release before they wanted that feature, which would sound plausible if it were one or two significant features left behind. But once you have to start counting the missing major functionality on more than one hand, that points more at the fundamentals of the re-architecture than personal feature-developer priorities.

Whenever I see this sort of statement, it means it's gone. If they could readily do it in a non-janky way, they'd have done it before release; the re-architecture was too fundamental to accommodate it. Particularly on an open source project, where nobody is forcing them to release on a specific schedule.

Also, look up Trent Reznor's "Slam Bamboo" band before Nine Inch Nails.
