Trump heard about the jailbird prince and REALLY needs a distraction from the Epstein files.

I'm not sure what the bill demands is even possible. Many vendors will just drop Ca like a hot potato, they're not that big compared to the rest of the world.

You can still build a practical 3D printer from an Arduino with a stepper control board. That's not going away, and that's not going to run the crazy theoretical magic gun parts detector.

The problem of ghost guns isn't so much 3D printing as it is CNC machining. No sane person is going to fire a fully 3D printed gun.

I guess Californians will just have to build Voron or Rat Rig from kits.

The question of willfulness certainly comes up though, since it can obviously happen accidentally. The possibility of other mechanisms means that simply demonstrated resistance is no longer sufficient to show infringement.

It is kind of funny to think that wildly growing weeds contain a patented gene that makes them damned hard to get rid of.

Yes, there will be a lot of frog soup soon. All made out of those execs who claim they make the big money because they are so much smarter than the people who get fooled by rent-to-own no money now schemes.

When I have to use an old NFS share that won't support ACLs at all, I first do
getfacl -R --one-file-system . >root.facl
in the root filesystem so if necessary I can restore them with setfacl later.

Select isn't perfect, but it's good enough for surprisingly large loads. Where it just won't do, there's epoll. It's a lot more versatile than NTs IO completion.

The latter is a deep structural difference. NT seems to like ad-hoc interfaces to various things while Unix tends to unify them under a common interface. I saw that written in bold early on when NT has some special API for accessing a backup tape and in Unix it was a char device like any other (but with a few extra IOCTLS to cover the differences). A testament to that is that tar was meant for tape drives but became the standard for archive files.

The idea is that if they can catch fire when charging, that should happen outside.

But since they were recalled, why haven't they serviced the recall so they are no longer a fire hazard?

Even funnier, Linux has had ACLs for years now. They aren't ysed that frequently because well planned group membership and standard permissions usually get the job done.

In at least some cases I suspect the upper management is more concerned for the health of the hype than they are in actual results. It helps them to lowball new hires.

There have been multiple approaches. One was selective breeding that actually lead to another mechanism for resistance. Another was cross breeding with roundup ready canola to transfer the gene into a new line.

Both put the lie to Monsantos' that any round-up resistance in Canola was necessarily replanting their seed.

If you can get it to cross breed, then it can cross breed due to pollen blown from a nearby field, as happened with closely related weeds along roads.

So yes, they were wrong. Quite possibly knowingly, and they pulled the wool over the courts eyes.

I'm not so sure DMT should be a last resort medication. It seems to be faster, longer lasting, lower in side effects, and it should be cheaper (since it isn't patented). I wouldn't suggest it instead of therapy, but it might make a good kickstart to therapy.

In the '70s, people were worried about the environment. But they were still able to buy a house, start a family, and afford (most) health care. Some were starting to worry that computers would take jobs.

Some took out loans for school, but working your way through school was still seen as a mostly debt-free option. Especially if you could get a scholarship.

The oil embargo certainly frightened a lot of people but it didn't leave them feeling totally helpless. They had the option of going to smaller and more efficient cars. Even my dad the car guy got a Datsun.

Real deep depression is a combination of bad circumstances, no sense that it will change any time soon, and powerlessness to make it change.

Don't think of them as fat useless parasites, think of them as giant piggy banks for our future. Now bring me the hammer...

Wow, given that bending over backwards, you must be really good at yoga!

Now consider how many of that handful would have likely died of COVID anyway. The people who had adverse reaction to the shot were reacting to the very same protein that COVID itself would have flooded their systems with had they gotten COVID instead.

Enjoy your diet of horse paste and all-natural pork tapeworms.

I'll just be over here enjoying my COVID and measles free life.

And yet it is still considerably more than the dose from nuclear power.
