NiMH also doesn't eat shit immediately if you deep discharge it once and leave it that way for a few days, which is my favorite thing about it. A lot of chargers are too dumb to recharge deeply discharged cells, though. Of my three NiMH chargers, only one will do it. I love eneloop batteries, but the eneloop bundled charger is trash...
Because China.
This isn't some anti-communist post.
We knew that already, because you were talking about China.
The only reason he'd need all that would be for some nefarious shit
Or they needed to bribe or hire a bunch of people.
That's not an "or".
everything the CIA does is nefarious. Doing dastardly deeds on our behalf is their job.
I am not paying taxes for the purpose of having feds violate the law, national or international.
In some ways, it feels like IBM buying Red Hat was as much about keeping anybody else from buying them (and changing them).
Yes, because IBM wanted to change them — from not violating the GPL, to violating the GPL. And that's exactly what they are doing by placing additional restrictions on the redistribution of sources delivered to customers.
It's for "import".
Maybe I'm just naive enough to believe that checks and balances have to work this way, but this is the first example in a while where it seems to me like the system is working.
They're the CIA. They don't need the FBI to wipe their ass for them, they chose not to wipe it. But the more important point is how was this considered a legitimate request to begin with? The only reason he'd need all that would be for some nefarious shit, like when the CIA imported cocaine in USFS planes.
The disconnect for Local ID10T is their assumption that IBM/Red Hat won't share the code with the upstream project, the people on the service just get the immediate backported patch before it has a chance to trickle down the usual channel from the upstream. Not that the code won't be shared.
Yeah, we thought IBM/Redhat followed the GPL, but then they started placing additional restrictions on the software sent to subscribers, which is a direct violation of the GPL. It is not a defense that they are doing it in a separate license either, because that's the only place where they could do it as the GPL is copyrighted, so they can't legally just add a clause permitting it there because they'd be creating an unauthorized derivative work.
Given that they used to not do this, but they are doing it now, what's to stop them from making the next step not contributing the sources upstream?
From last November to March, the court papers say, Mr. Rush asked for, and received, "a significant quantity of foreign currency and tens of millions of dollars in gold bars for work-related expenses."
The problem with the CIA is not necessarily that they exist, but that they apparently operate without oversight. What the fuck is this?
I'm surprised. I have a steam deck. I really don't use it. I find phone and PC gaming are much easier than holding that huge device.
Then this is a good time to sell it. You can get your money back or even maybe make a profit.
(The "orthodox" ones, in general, are too busy hanging strings and doing other silly stuff from 2000 years ago to be really active in politics).
Also stalking women. My lady was stalked repeatedly by orthodox Jews (and no one else) when she lived in NYC.
If we're going to appeal to religion, we might as well pray for it to write us a linter to solve this problem once and for all.
If it weren't IBM, I wouldn't assume the worst. Unless it was e.g. Oracle.
I think your lack of reading comprehension is hilarious, because that's not what I said; I find your putting that in quotation marks scurrilous, because that's not how quotation marks work. But I expect no better from you.
I'm readily willing (heh heh) to believe that, but I mostly don't see ads any more except the spam that makes it past the filters, and almost none of that is actually targeted; and the only one I've seen through clearly is Facebook, because of what happens with the "interests" in your profile when you delete them. i.e. they return most meaninglessly.
Often statistics are used as a drunken man uses lampposts -- for support rather than illumination.
