Even the summary said the match was only 93% probable. That's a LONG way from any reasonable certainty. (Out of 1000 people you'd have 70 matches. If you don't do other steps of elimination, what is the size of the population you're screening?)
I'm guessing gift cards were handier for unbanked and underbanked people, such as teens who earn a cash allowance or earn cash from yard work for neighbors but aren't old enough to have a bank account in their own name.
You gave Ukraine security guarantees in exchange for Ukraine not keeping the nuclear weapons that were on its soil after the breakup of the USSR. There's an argument that the real mistake the US (and the UK and France) made was not getting involved in 2014 when Russia decided to unilaterally revoke Stalin's transfer of the Crimea to the Ukraine. The resulting lesson, which is also the lesson that the current war in Iran teaches, is that a state should do all it can to acquire nuclear weapons and then not give them up under any circumstances.
Perhaps not, but they are designed to *attempt* to only target the things they are aimed at.
I don't think that's a well defined term. Historically you can only figure out which actions were war crimes after one side has won, and decided to set up trials. The rest of the time different sides pick different actions.
No. They say "sinister".
Batteries are not a sufficient answer here. But when you add in a grid connection they work. The weather will be different in different places, so some places it will be windy, some places it will be rainy, and other places the sky will be clear. I think this works even in Britain, and that's North of Ontario.
It's well documented that on entering a theme park most people turn right, but that is consistent with this research: turning right on entering a room means that you walk anticlockwise around it.
Well, and FWIW, there has been a huge increase in the number of
"security fixes" Debian has been downloading recently. I assume the same is true of other Linux distros and probably for Apple, though I don't think those are made public. Perhaps the BSDs haven't seen a large uptick.
"Most of" allows exceptions. More than two thirds of EU residents live in countries which mandate SIM registration, and of the larger non-EU European countries Russia and Turkey do; the UK and Ukraine don't; without doing a full calculation, I suspect that the two thirds threshold is met for the whole of geographic Europe too.
I was responding to a claim that the entire existence of Europe is in danger, not that Russia might invade Estonia next. (Also, FWIW, the Russian population of Poland is the size of a large town or a very small city).
Europe just does not want to realize it yet, but their entire existence is in danger right now
Given what Ukraine is managing to get past Russian air defences, do you think Putin is going to nuke Europe and risk French nukes hitting Moscow and Petrograd? Europe's at war, sure, but talk of an existential threat needs some serious justification.
In normal times, Iran's attacks on European nations would muster an article 5 reprisal
What attacks on European nations? Cyprus isn't a NATO member; if you're counting Turkey as European then it would have to invoke Article 5. Has it? And the fact that all three or four missiles were shot down with the aid of NATO allies would suggest that the spirit of joint self-defence is satisfied. For every member state to send a missile back would be disproportionate escalation.
shower beforehand
If the models aren't telling you to take the dirty underwear off before the shower and put the clean underwear on after it, maybe think about changing models earlier than scheduled.
The US government does, but they've already exercised the upper limits of punishment they can exert.
No it hasn't. The order imposes licence requirements on US companies for exporting or transferring goods to NSO Group, but it doesn't prohibit US companies from buying from NSO Group, nor does it target individuals. If the US government can prohibit all US companies from doing any business with UN special rapporteurs (Francesca Albanese) or Brazilian judges (Alexandre de Moraes - sanction now lifted), to the extent that they can't have a Visa or Mastercard nor a Gmail account, it can do the same to the C-suite of NSO Group.
Once I see it doing what I want, I'll be interested. But in order to do that, it needs to be able to understand the action of the fiction I'm asking it to read. E.g. if it's reading "Alice in Wonderland" it needs to use a proper voice for Alice talking to herself as she falls down the rabbit hole. (And for the editorial comments interspersed.)
O,. and it needs to be able to do this without an internet connection.
Time is nature's way of making sure that everything doesn't happen at once. Space is nature's way of making sure that everything doesn't happen to you.
