He explicitly said: Like I'd love to have Starlink, but I refuse to have anything to do with the guy in charge of it

Thanks for giving info that the linked article didn’t deem important enough to include

One wonders whether the "benevolent" Chinese state asked the man's family BEFORE implanting the liver into him or whether it just took 10 days for them to find out and get the state to stop treating him like a lab rat.

Be honest. You don’t need any “reasons” to hate & criticize Apple, jealousy is more than enough.

Given that China's all time total emissions of CO2 has now eclipsed Europe's total emissions so China should be pledging just as much as Europe is. China's "we're just a poor developing country" figleaf to avoid paying their share has lost all credibility.

Did I claim that ALL “UAP” videos were definitively debunked? No, just the “go fast” one.

That you think that I did appears to be due to over enthusiastic over facepalming in your part. You should have a real doctor look into that for you.

I recall reading a definitive debunking of the "go fast" video by an optics expert with intimate knowledge of the F18 gun camera. Every claimed "anomalous" movement was explained as being a particular kind of "sun dog" (those ghost suns you can see on complex multi-component lenses that are pointed facing the sun).

So Tim Gallaudet's "proof" of aliens boils down to "an unknown higher ranked officer told the mail system admin to junk the conspirationist bullshit we were trying to circulate".

Proof that higher ranked officers are aliens... /s

> It has been proven it wasn’t a copy

No, it has most certainly not been proven. It has been asserted but that is not proof.

OpenAI has been proven to have deemed that anything that they can use anything they can access on the Internet to train their AIs without any considerations. That there are no currently known tracks between Altman and the Sky voice resembling SJ's voice doesn't mean that he didn't pull Roberts aside and tell her "make it sound like SJ" or that there are communications that they have not revealed and in a jury trial, given how many people find that sky and SJ are more than oddly similar she would likely prevailed had Altman not pulled sky. A court decision is the only proof in this context & OpenAI chose to avoid discovery and a trial.

Suuure and "your mom" is different from the vast majority. People like almost all of those here: https://www.reddit.com/r/mac/c..., and here:: https://markellisreviews.com/t..., and here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?....

So again: Very highly doubtful but I'll add in probably untrutful because you have failed to explain what you and "your mom" are doing that is different from everyone else.

Very highly doubtful. Apple's better memory management through compression & faster access to the on-module RAM have made the expectations of those used to x86 laptops overestimate the RAM needed for all but the most demanding workloads, as has been seen time and time again by those who actually used one. Come on admit it, you're basing your opinion on a win/linux PC & not through actual use of a M1/2/3 Mac with 8Gb.

iPhone users don’t have to care, they’re not using the RAM overconsumption shit sandwich of Android+Chrome.

As is so often the case, the non iPhone users wrongly consider their pachydermic use cases to be EVERYONE’s use cases.

8Gb is more than enough for my mother’s MB Air. She only uses Safari, iMessage and Pages. That’s many tasks as Apple correctly said and she does not need a pompous self entitled PC Gamer “journalist” with slovenly multiple tab habits to tell her that she should have paid $200 more for her Mac.

My Mac’s have more memory, but then I run multiple VM’s and don’t need the advice of a pompous self entitled PC Gamer “journalist” to know how much RAM I need either.

The underfunded state of the FAA has forced SpaceX to launch less often than than they would have were they not waiting on overworked FAA officials to approve launch licences. SpaceX's development model is to iterate quickly: design, build, test (launch), redesign, build, test (launch), etc. The FAA's pace of delivering launch licenses has slowed this process down to the point where SpaceX scraps Spaceships that they would normally have flown but could not because SpaceX builds the biggest rockets ever built faster than the FAA licenses.

SpaceX already proposed LAST YEAR to finance the FAA so that they can staff up to the level SpaceX will need them to be, making TFA's baitclicky "Biden Takes Aim At SpaceX's Tax-Free Ride In American Airspace" about as close to reality as utterances from Trump or Putin.

What RAF fighters? Without the lend-lease destroyers U-boats would have won the war in the Atlantic at the beginning of the war. England depended on the US for food, aluminum, rubber, high octane and everything else that barely allowed England to resist Hitler. Absent the means to counter the U-boats England's inability to feed it's population by itself turns into a starving population unable to build & fly the planes that won the BoB.

It's always easier with imaginary planes England wouldn't have been able to build without US support.

Germany would not have had to resort to coal liquefaction. Absent US support, no bomber raids on Ploesti, also no support for the Russians so Hitler makes it to Baku.

Claiming to be a journalists or a source does not give anyone a blanket license to commit crimes as you seem to think. Both the US & England have court systems that are used to make those who break laws face justice.

Key words: "you think". Assange supporters like you have been consistently dreaming up nightmare scenarios and claiming that they are the reality as if you were Trump or Putin.

A criminal facing justice != spite or hate and your imagination is a piss poor substitute for reality.

You are performing a Soviet style rewriting of history, not in defense of England but in a poor defense of Assange

Without the lend-lease destroyers and American ships and resources, German U boats would have starved both the English war building economy and the English people into submission. As it was, the Battle of Britain was a close affair and with much less ressources needed to build the spits and hurris, without the high octane gasoline needed to fuel them and without all the other resources England desperately needed & the USA supplied it would have been impossible to defend against the Luftwaffe.
