Is anyone actually using a foldable? What's the usability advantage?

I've seen them in the wild, I don't really understand their appeal.

As much fun as it is to blame Oracle ( dog knows they deserve it ), this reeks of incompetent project management government-side. I can almost guarantee not a single person knew even a fraction of how their existing system worked or what it delivered, so during requirement gathering meetings would rattle off insane "wants" and "needs", while ignoring the real needs and requirements.

Oracle, happy to charge you as much money as you authorize, just went along with it I'm sure.

I've had this argument with a number of public institutions; the bias should be towards opensource products due to the ever present threat of vendor lock in.

Seriously, who is asking for this? Anyone? Is this useful for anyone?

I know I'm probably being a bit paranoid, but I'm good without stellar excitement, thanks.

Imagine what's lurking nearby that, when it goes boom, can cause quite a bit of the wrong kind of excitement on Earth.

i am starting to think that there might be some use for these airborne lawn mowers

wait.

and both test pilots are alive.
the g d air show is a success.
I do have a minor question.
if country a has no intellectual property rights.
then copying their design is public

Won't happen. Why? Because the government uses the future of their students to guarantee a seemingly unending flow of cash. Lower prices? Ha! They will raise them until the government cuts off their funding.

Or, apparently, when people stop going to college because of how expensive it is.

Colleges are toxic cesspits of ideology, where education often takes a back seat to politics. The ROI on most degrees has been non-existent for some time.

The entire higher education culture is due for a correction.

I'm tired of dealing with substandard IT services, from both India AND China. The language barrier is one thing, but I don't think I've ever spoke or worked with an agent from either country that could do anything other than read from a script. Once the problem deviates from the script they were useless.

Granted; US support is a mixed bag. Sometimes it's great, sometimes it sucks, but at least sometimes it IS great. That's not something I've ever experienced with Indian or Chinese support.

It's worth noting that current nutrition guidelines pegs recommended protein @ ~50 grams a day for an adult male, which is far below the 1.6 grams discussed in this article.

Let's take your average 160lb dude. That's around 72kgs. The article says there's no benefit beyond 1.6 grams per kg, so he should be eating 115.2 grams per day, far exceeding the "recommended" amount of ~50 grams.

wait.
I am ignoring the painfully obvious.

Kind of an apples to oranges comparison. There are a lot of fundemental differences between Denmark and US which would impact the outcome.

Instead, let's take a look at government funded healthcare right in the US: The VA. A quick look should tell us everything we need to know about expanding such a system to cover all citizens.

Oh...oh no. No no no no.

Mind you, the VA is aimed at our soldiers. The people we depend on to defend our borders. Look what we do to those we should be celebrating! Now imagine what would happen to your average, ordinary every day joe. Or worse; imagine it gets politized by "the other side" ( which ever side you don't like ); can you imagine the republicans in charge of universal healthcare and you need an abortion? Or the democrats in charge and a heart attack victim comes in with a "Donor" dot on his DL and a MAGA hat on?

Thank you, no. There are far too many horrible, yet likely outcomes to this idea.

Thanks for the museums. Seriously. Kids in SJ have all grown up with field trips to those and it’s amazing to think you gave up billions to fund museums for everyone rather than buy an NBA team. We met a few times in the 90s at the eyeglasses store in Oakridge Mall and you were always more smiles than frowns.
