Can we keep the Rust team busy with porting them?

We can't allow this to stand having MCA token ring drivers in C.

i386 arch will be around in some form approximately forever. This was a weird hybrid model for lowmem amd64 devices.

Your theory fits all of the strange behavior data we have.

Good thinking.

The music was incredibly tight on the trench run scene, perfectly choreographed with the action.

Imagine how different Williams's score would have been with bland editing.

Slashdot now the home of Luddites? "Why do we need a SPACE BASE?"
A lot of people write off space 'competition' as just militaristic dick-flexing.
You do understand where ICBMs came from? There isn't a serious question that space is absolutely now a context for global-state competition; it's not dick-flexing to recognize that this will shortly expand from orbital space to really the entire cislunar sphere.
It is, in fact, one of the generally-undisputed roles of government to try to recognize a strategic vulnerability and address it proactively.

Further - and this may end up getting modded to oblivion as recounting these facts is distasteful on /. -
SpaceX is multiples cheaper than competitives in launch cost per kg - $1500-$4000 vs $18k alternatives vs $54k NASA
To suggest "SpaceX is a slush fund from Trump to Elon" makes no sense. I want our govt to be using the CHEAPEST AVAILABLE LAUNCH capability. Are you asserting they shouldn't?

BlueOrigin is well behind but commercial launch development is *significantly* driving down costs, that's unquestionable.

As far as "publicly funded" ...would you rather it be a corporate thing entirely? Does that make sense?

"It's accepted that Lithium is not rare."
You and I and some may recognize that, but the media organs have been screeching for some time about China's "monopoly" on rare earths and the west's "vulnerability" for a decade or more.
I can't count the number of times I've had to explain that yes, in fact the US has world-leading deposits of lithium. (as much as 40 million tons of reserves. vs Chinas 10)

"this process is welcome. As it has a dramatic reduction in toxic residuals from processing"
Fully agree, this would be a wonderful opportunity. Not only does this absolutely mean less toxins anywhere, this would open the chance of actually doing lithium recovery domestically (it doesn't really matter how clean the process is, I expect crowds of Earth Firsters gathering to oppose any such industry, regardless; this would just mean it has a reasonable chance of moving out of the morass of environmental protests...).

They think center-left is ultra right-wing.

Some mostly sensible people consider themselves center-left and feel hurt that the he Valley types are calling them fascists.

It's all complicated by the 1D spectrum model of the French Parliament being applied to politics broadly.

The Left Authoritarians really hate the Right Authoritarians while the Left Libertarians and the Right Libertarians mostly get along.

It sort of makes sense becauae violence is inherent in the former while cooperation is inherent in the latter.

But the angry aren't usually educated im polisci at all and just operate on the Friend/Eny distinction of their tribe's momentary collective preferences, which can turn on a dime.

The Valley oligarchs will also switch allegiances instantaneously if they perceive advantage in profit or control with shifting winds.

They keep adding timing noise to these API's as attacks show up but this really speaks to the need to have the noise in the core I/O libraries, not inside each new API.

If it's writing to disk in any way it should go through a code path with timing noise.

It would be easier on the feature developers too.

Probably in the network API's too. Have a turbo mode in preferences at one end of a privacy slider, maybe. Default should be safe but the browser benchmark people incentivize the wrong thing. "You get what you measure" and stuff.

It's an overseas market too.

Lots of defects in the case.

Somebody said his legal defense is that if Congress can do it he can. If true it could be an impactful case.

While Blackstone's ratio has endured for nearly 1000y (Maimonides said it ca 1100 I believe) and Franklin tried to codge it for himself, every persuasive case for it involves CAPITAL punishment.
(Obviously, there's no un-do button on that....)

And if you poll most people today, they regard mis-conviction about the same as mis-exoneration meaning letting someone accidentally go free is considered just as bad as accidental conviction.

And while Franklin's bullshit about safety and liberty is even more-quoted in the US, it's constantly misunderstood. Constantly the word 'essential' is skipped past. On an absolute basis, we routinely trade liberty for safety - anytime we stop at a stop light with nobody around, or stay on the right side of the empty road.

I'm actually pretty militantly libertarian myself, but thoughtless, reactive libertarianism has the odor of chaos and anarchy.

In your rush-to-snark, you misread the previous poster as part of your anti-elon congregation yourself.
The post wasn't ironic, it was genuine, pointing out there isn't anything close as an alternative.

How deep are the grooves?

Does a dirty car or airplane negate the benefit?

Why do you think Trump bragged about arming these 'protesters' with firearms months before while Bessent bragged about running a currency crash scheme?

Whatever will young people do if there's nothing to scroll?

It doesn't seem possible to disentangle LEO lift from missiles with rocket technology so you can understand the argument.

Same with Starlink. We just learned that the attack on the Girl's high school dorm in Luhansk last week was done with four plywood and epoxy drone airplanes with manually targeted rockets strapped to the wings. Strapped to the top of the fuselage was a Starlink mini, per analyst reports (cf. Garland Nixon stream from last night) so operators could guide the rockets into the dormitory.

Perhaps with Exodus Technology's lifters we can get away from rockets for lift. I'm rooting for their success.

Some are blaming AI targeting but that just shows Musk is hip deep in the whole kill stack. Most of his stuff is dual-use, so there is always public cover. Same can be said of NASA of course.
