Yeah, these days don't you need about nine different streaming services just to watch one MLB game? I thought every inning had its own streaming service.

I was thinking the same. I wonder if his tune would change if iit happened to him or someone he cared about.
It's their out. Plausible deniability. "Up to" 12 inches includes 0.1 inch. Even 0 inches. It's like those commercials that use the words "up to" and "or more" in the same sentence: "You could loose up to 20 pounds, or more!" It basically means 0 to any positive number, so they never have to actually prove anything.
But if you pay more taxes they will make the weather gooder!
And here's the part that most people don't {$VERB}.
Surely other people have noticed this, too, yes?
Will they have a floating point unit? That's my personal favorite unit.
No official should profit off their office
I was eating while I read that and literally choked and spit out crumbs as I laughed. Is he serious? Nearly all politicians do that, though not necessarily with meme coins. Both sides of the aisle.
I was invited to attend the movie with a group. Before the movie started I handed out tiny umbrellas to everyone. You know, just in case someone tried to drop an anvil on their head.
"There are a limited number of signs."
So I ask you (everybody): Is anything good?
FVWM obviously.
But joking aside...
Wait, what's the gag?
I've been using FVWM since about 1996. First on Linux (Slackware), and now on FreeBSD.
Now all that's left for them to do is make a nice open-source replacement for CDE, with Motif widgets. Then we can finally have a real unix-like workstation.
Of course they're going to behave this way. People forget that cops are just 'D' students with guns.
It's like how if you or I commit a crime we'll end up in prison, but if a politician commits the same crime (or worse) nothing happens.
The internet? Is that thing still around?
It's unconscionable that a non-profit entity with a CTO making nearly $180k / year failed to plan for this. He needs to be fired right now. Having only a single copy of your data, managed by someone else? Further, when Nine PBS went to renew their contract with OSS and failed to get a response -- for over a month -- knowing that they would lose access to their data if the contract was not renewed, he chose to do nothing instead of instantly start downloading all of the data, still having access to the data at that time.
Louis Rossmann did a video digging into this. Nine PBS's CEO makes $300k / year, and the rest of the C-suite makes good 6-figure incomes, too. They also showed significant profit on investment income for four of the last five years. This was investment income, not even the donations they received. Yet they didn't take even a fraction of a percent of that income to buy a NAS and create even one local copy of their data. They saw this slow-motion disaster coming and just let it happen, and then went and cried to a judge about it.
One person's error is another person's data.
