Well, that character isn't on my keyboard. I don't even bother to double up my hyphens - I just use one as an em-dash. If it was a key, I'd use it. Until then, I'll just use the one hyphen and let Word or whatever deal with it.

Alt-0151 will get you the em dash. Or, type 2014 then hit Alt-X and Word will convert it for you.

Now be a good American and whine how that is too difficult.

Tariffs are a tax collected by business for the government. Since Trump is the one who gave the illegal order, he would be responsible, but since the Supreme Court has ruled a president is untouchable, nothing will be done.

Next up will be a "national emergency" to prevent or disallow the results of the general election.

Remember when Elon bought the place and ran most of them out on a rail?

Considering Elon WORKED for the government to spread propaganda, continues to censor certain posts and words, blocked publication of information about J.D. Vance prior to the election, and continues to let lies about the 2020 election proliferate, no, I don't remember.

Then you have the people that think upscaling an image 3x makes it more detailed and sharper.

And the weather. There is a limited amount of pleasant temperate climate in the US and California has a big chunk of it.

You might be surprised. Louisiana is an industrial facility powerhouse, probably just behind Texas in terms of manpower depth for a facility like this.

Ancient Rome made amazing aqueducts. One day they had built all the ones they really needed and with no new projects for a new generation to learn from, they quickly just forgot how to make aqueducts.

"Big Tech" is now entering this phase. In a generation all innovation will be gone.

900$ for a base model with 256GB SSD is pathetic.

Then make it retroactive. Donate the proceeds to the victims of this program who had to train their replacements.

So, die of skin cancer instead of Alzheimer's?

Nope, there's now a vaccine for that.

When Ukraine dissects the remains of Russian drones or missiles, they inevitably find western components. In one case, reported on here, they found an Nvidia chip inside a missile.

Is someone, or someones, inside the supply chain redirecting chips? Is this the same as the servers getting to China? Or is this merely a case of someone buying this stuff under a shell company and then passing it along?

Not in 2003 it wasn't

Her name is Pamela Jones, she was a paralegal. She's done real interviews in the past. She was/is real!

With executive pay at all time highs and the gap between executive and workers larger than ever, I would agree. This is a failure in the system where boards of directors are not holding executives accountable. The system can't hold for long.
