Compiz was GREAT even if you ignored literally all of the visual effect "slop" as you call it. It's got a great set of tools for controlling windows, including window rules which are very powerful. If you don't know about those other tools then you should perhaps have spent more time in ccsm back when it was relevant.

Unfortunately, as you say it is for X11 only (although for me that is not a drawback because Wayland is still bad, especially if you have Nvidia and I do) and more importantly it is not well-maintained software and it's therefore flaky AF, so it's not relevant now.

If you have a decent CPU it might run on that at half speed or so.

"This wasn't a hack. This was the AI doing *exactly* what it was told to do."

He didn't hack the AI. The AI hacked the booking website. Hacking means making hardware or software do something it wasn't designed to do. It doesn't mean it's hard.

While all that is true, the USA has been doing exactly the same thing, so just go ahead and mention that to maintain perspective.

Treason isn't defined by morality, but by giving aid or comfort to the enemy.

We'd have to define one of these dictatorships that Trump is always jerking off as an enemy and not merely an adversary to make it big-"T"-Treason.

Congress lacks any semblance of a spine so that's not happening.

Lolol some armchair warrior hates facts.

I get trained on HIPAA every year...

Heat pumps do not use any water at all; they use refrigerant. Similarly, immersion cooling uses oil or some other non-water coolant. Of the three things I listed, only one (closed-loop water cooling) uses water at all, and not on an ongoing basis unless you have a leak.

Water in a sealed pipe most certainly does not evaporate, as there is no air for it to evaporate into. Other than leaks, you would not expect losses of water.

But what are they? Are they reasonable? Will they be able to weasel out trivially?

"These are tangible and important commitments that will benefit the industry and which can be measured."

Do they come with reparations if the commitments aren't met? If not they're worthless.

It isn't. Car culture is the result of legislation.

The list of things you are familiar with is far, far shorter than the converse. It's unclear why you want us all to know this, but you make sure to point it out at every opportunity.

This is true. Most would not do that. Historically, people found a hole to throw their refuse into so they wouldn't have to dig one.

They say data can be shared for TPO or sometimes for research purposes and the latter leans on anonymization which may or may not have been conducted correctly, probably not since it's hard. We need a much tighter standard that never allows sharing the data with another party without a warrant.

It's interesting that the response to less than perfect license plate recognition is to brag about how a total surveillance state is so much easier to implement in Europe.
