No you said: "Linus is opposed to anything RISC." He is so opposed to it he lets in other RISC architectures. Or are you just lying?

Not what you said. You said "Intel ISA". Considering his personal PC has been AMD, Intel, and Apple M1 Macbook over the years, that does not appear true either.

Linus is so opposed to it that it is supported in the kernel since 2017 even though it represents a tiny fraction of systems?

[sarcasm]Yes that is why only Intel is supported in Linux and not AMD. Not ARM. Not IBM Power. Not MIPS. Just Intel.[/sarcasm]

So in figures that no one can verify Windows is dominant. That is like saying I am the best golfer in the world but no one has seen me play golf. Also you neglected the part where Windows pays almost no role in the portable market.

1) No Linus is mad because someone did the exact thing he told them not to do: submit code late. 2) Linus is not concerned with Linux on desktop as much as you. In past interviews he has said as much. Considering Linux has a larger server market share than Windows and Android destroys Windows in the portable and phone market, I do not think Linus is worried.

While some of the reported optimizations did increase the mileage, none of them were drastic. The bed cover probably contributed much to the efficiency, but it is not something out of the ordinary I have not seen with other trucks.

Not for Intel. It has worked for Apple, NVidia, Qualcomm, and Broadcom though.

Steampunk technology works fine in a fantasy world. It does not work in the practical world with today's requirements. For example the current requirements for new cars is drivers must have a way to see the rear of the vehicle. That is handled by cameras which means electronics. The steam punk method would be mirrors and tubes which probably do not work well at night and would make the car far more complicated than needed. Many modern things are practically impossible to achieve with steampunk technology like using steam as power.

Part of it is "What Epstein files? Pay no attention to the FBI behind the curtains redacting everything."

Dude, why are you killing the vibe? Logistics and planning are for suckers. Everything magically works out. Just ask the Brexit supporters as Brexit was an outstanding success.

Next? Why so wasteful? They should use Foxconn's. All of them should use that building. Streamline the efficiencies!

The problem is Foxconn conned Trump. They were never really going to "try".

There were also other circumstances. One of the "kids" started to have doubts about the submersible after the first hull developed a crack. She wanted to leave, but it was the middle of the pandemic. She was seeing all her college friends suddenly become unemployed so she decided to stay. Also the company was working on their 2nd hull so she thought maybe the new one would be safer. When she found out that Ocean Gate changed virtually nothing of the hull design, she refused to put anyone in the sub. She was given the ultimatum of do it or quit. She quit.

No, Ocean Gate did pass all government safety standards that applied to it. The con was Ocean Gate did everything they could to make sure the submersible did not fall under any government's jurisdiction thus no standards applied to it.

That reminds me of this liquor store where I grew up. It was the only one within 3 counties; however all 3 counties were dry with not even beer or wine sales allowed. How did this store exist? Well someone figured out that a small patch of land along a highway was technically unincorporated as it fell outside of all county and city lines. So they built a liquor store there. The locals were upset especially the more religious ones. However the store was operating under city and county liquor laws as there were none. Since the state liquor laws defer to city and county laws, there was nothing the county or nearby city could do. Eventually the county and city allowed beer and wine.

Yes he did. I think you are confusing the fact that the main pressure compartment is almost always a sphere with the shape of the entire vehicle is not a sphere. Generally attached to the sphere are parts like thrusters, sensors, ballast, panels, etc that are not spheres.

The roof still says "NASA 25" but yes the trailer has been painted white.
