How is this upvoted? I have seen news story after news story showing when all the alerts happened, and what they were. It is extremely well documented. The alerts went out in plenty of time - the warnings went out over an before the river in that area had begun to rise, and watches and other alerts four hours before that.

The problem with biased political rants like what you're spouting is they will result in more deaths. That's because the REAL reason these girls died is not going to be addressed if you want to make Trump, or even the NOAA, the bad guys.

The failure is in the extremely localized levels - that is the local government and even the camp itself. The NOAA can't know that in the absolutely insane amount of thousands of square miles they forecast for that there would be a summer camp in particular danger. That is up to local authorities. You want to place a camp right on the banks of a river, in one of the nations most risky flood zones? Then the local authorities are the ones with emergency services, building code inspection and enforcement, on and on, who are the ones who are supposed to make sure these kinds of situations can be handled. For example the fire department will come and inspect the place for fire safety - exits, alarms, fire plans, fire drills, fire extinguishers and on. Their flooding requirements / plan was token at best, and that is why people died at the camp.

This is a wake up call for local governments to require alarm systems to trigger evacuation to higher ground. What triggers it? How do they know? Is the business responsible for the costs? The county? That is what has to be done to prevent this from happening again.

Here are all the alerts that went out, in spite of what your post says.

When we look back in 30 years time at what caused America to fall, energy prices, spending too much on nuclear, and failure to compete in renewable energy is my best guess.

"Being run by Inbred Klan Fuckwit Republicans" will be pretty high on the list too.

Battery Storage works fine if you have diversified energy production. Dumb Klanwit Arkansas doesn't, of course, because it's 50th in Education and one of the Klan Garbage States...

Hey, remember when the Retard Fuckwit Pedophile Republicans in Texas woke up the Whole Damn State, all the way from Texarkana to El Paso, because some sheriff got shot up way north of Dallas?

Pepperidge Farm Remembers...

But how will the Retard Pedophile Republicans scare the elderly about supposed "child abduction rings" that don't exist then???

I know that a decade or so ago we did not have the ability to detect and monitor all objects capable of destroying life on Earth yet. Do we now have that ability? Are we now identifying and tracking every potential candidate of that kind, or is that even possible?

I recently started a contract for a company that provides their own windows machines that they manage. This is relatively new for me as I have always used my own hardware, however in this case I use the laptop they provide to access their system.

Every time I would log into Outlook and other bits of Microsoft software with an authenticator (I'm using Google's) it would take me to a website pushing Microsoft Authenticator. It literally said "upsell" in the URL, and I could find no way to disable it. After a couple weeks and dozens of uses it finally seems to have gone away.

From what I can tell, she's talking about Microsoft's disinterest or inability to create mobile hardware, and that MS is instead potentially licensing the XBox brand / OS / software stack to other manufactures that are already making portable gaming devices. She sees this as the decline of the Xbox I guess, even though MS has already stated there will be a next gen Xbox at some point.

I'm no expert in this arena, but Xbox has always had a pretty healthy market share even though its competitors had mobile offerings (although the PS mobile devices were never compatible with the actual main PS consoles).

For those that have attended a Christian wedding ceremony there's often a biblical passage read about the need for the man and woman to break ties with their parents and create a new family.

- But why should I give a crap what it says in your cult's shitty book full of rape, murder, incest, and other bullshit?

It's kind of crazy every comment to this point is so politically motivated that no one will even talk about the technical merits of wearables. I wear an Apple watch, and make a point to wear it when sleeping as well, because of the vast amounts of health data it captures. Quality of sleep, resting heart rate, heart rate recovery time, blood oxygen levels, respiratory rate, heart rate variability, etc. Heck, I even give myself an EKG from time to time.

One day I had some rare heart palpitations, so I did an EKG on the spot and caught a couple. Super useful for my doctor. The only other option in the past was to wear an expensive Holter monitor 24/7 to try and capture an event like that, but now it can be done at any time on-demand.

Sorry, but wearables are pretty amazing technology - almost like a dream come true. You may not like Trump or RFK, but to be ignorant enough to say this is an awful idea shows just how biased and politically motivated people are, especially on what is supposed to be a community that discusses technology.

This is simply a campaign to raise awareness and encourage people to use wearables in general - in whatever form factor or brand they may choose. This has nothing to do with government tracking, government control, government access to data, or anything like that. This has nothing to do with vaccines, or if a person's skin is orange, or what political party is in control.

If Obama went out and said the same thing it would be the most wonderful idea ever to the other set of individuals, while the right-leaning folks would then smash their wearables. Grow up people.

Yep and we have those. What is the leading cause of non-trauma death in the USA? Heart disease. That's what the wearables for for - gaining vast amounts of data for use by doctors for screening to catch trends much earlier, before some major acute event happens.

I have no idea what you are spouting off. It had Cherys on board, not Chevys. It was transporting Chinese-made and Chinese brand EVs that most of us have never heard of to Mexico, where they can be sold because of their much more lax standards in what can be sold there. Hence a very strong likelihood of why the deck of the ship carrying vehicles caught fire. If their EV batteries are anything like those Chinese scooter batteries that kept spontaneously catching fire, then there will be lots of vehicle fires in Mexico.

The problem with being on the cusp of something is you still are totally not there, and no guarantee you will ever be there.

I'm not sure if this is the same article verbatim as the fully-paywalled Financial Times, but it is definitely the same topic.

This town is on an interstate, so we actually have a Tesla Supercharger station in a hotel parking lot, a Sheetz that has 4 EV chargers, and apparently the Nissan dealership has a charging station as well (just googled my town because this made me curious).
