Fort Hood hasn't been designated as such since May 2023. It's Fort Cavazos.

That's a really weird way of spelling "American traded business interests" because if TikTok is a threat to national security, so is Facebook and The Service Formerly Known As Twitter.

I'd love a a phone the size of my old Motorola Defy.

Businesses already already do exactly that. They decide when they are open or not.
They already talk to suppliers and non-retail customers, daily, about receiving and deliveries.
I have to look up operating hours of places on a daily basis.

We don't do what you are suggesting we do already.
Businesses already change their signs twice a year or more, with seasonal hours that have nothing to do with DST.

Lots of states set the price of lots of things.
Cigarettes. Alcohol.

Heck, in Michigan, the state literally is the sole wholesaler of liquor.

We can do the same for drugs.

But it seems the chessdom site is having some serious capacity issues.

I do all those things, and on weeks I don't use the bus at all, I drive 350 miles a WEEK.

And there's charging stations at the grocery store.

For actual LIBRARIANS yes. However most other library staff have gone the way of cashier's due to self checkout and computerised cataloguing

And remember that most of the world doesn't drink milk, because it's a genetic mutation of white western Europeans and their descendants that allows us to digest lactose in any sizeable quantity past childhood.

They may cook with it, bake with it, but they don't drink it. Hell, most of the kids of colour at the local schools are lactose intolerant, which is a real problem when the state says "why the fuck Aren't your kids drinking milk?! We pay a lot of money to ensure they have it, make them drink it!"

And most all American commodity lumber is ACTUALLY made to millimeter specification anyways.

4x8 plywood? It's not 4 feet wide, nor 8 feet long, and it's certainly not 3/4 inch thick, and reading the labels tell you that in little print.

>Do you believe rehabilitation is impossible or do you want revenge?

I don't believe that someone who commits mass murder can be rehabilitated, no. It isn't about revenge; it's about public safety.

Someone once pointed out that hoping a rapist gets raped in prison isn't a victory for his victim(s), because it somehow gives him what he had coming to him, but it's actually a victory for rape and violence. I wish I could remember who said that, because they are right. The score doesn't go Rapist: 1 World: 1. It goes Rape: 2.

What this man did is unspeakable, and he absolutely deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison. If he needs to be kept away from other prisoners as a safety issue, there are ways to do that without keeping him in solitary confinement, which has been shown conclusively to be profoundly cruel and harmful.

Putting him in solitary confinement, as a punitive measure, is not a victory for the good people in the world. It's a victory for inhumane treatment of human beings. This ruling is, in my opinion, very good and very strong for human rights, *precisely* because it was brought by such a despicable and horrible person. It affirms that all of us have basic human rights, even the absolute worst of us on this planet.

This is precisely why I lost all interest in Oculus the instant I heard that it had been acquired by Facebook.

What... the actual... fuck?

Unless I'm missing something, three failed attempts and you have to enter the passcode. Reboot and you have to enter the passcode. 48 hours of not being used and you have to enter the passcode.

I just got a 5S and the TouchID is okay, but even when using the correct finger it doesn't always work and I have to enter my passcode (which is quite long). It wouldn't be hard to guess which finger I used but even then... everything would have to go perfectly to get into the phone using that method.
