My father has been locked out of his email account since last month. Multiple calls to support and now a second ticket for support have gone nowhere. They're a bunch of script kiddies repeating the same things over and over and never listening to what is being said.

The issue is on AOL's end, but they refuse to acknowledge it, let alone do anything.

Based on this experience, no way I'd buy company stock. With that kind of bad service, people will be leaving.

I don't get it. Governments require many things, and most of them are to be bought privately.

I never had any issues handing my children a lighter. None of them became an arsonist, not even an accidental one. Make lighting a lighter the most boring thing to do, and they will use one only to perform some boring task.

⦠which is comically high for the U.S., but not anywhere else. As soon as there is a sizeable market for used EVs, the prices stabilize. Until a year ago, used EVs on offer were either first gen types long superseded, or EVs with extremely high mileage of 150,000 miles or more, which indeed did not sell well. Right now, this changes at least in the E.U., and resale values increase.

If air is leaking out, is it not possible to do an EVA and try to see where it is leaking on the outside? Wouldn't the air freeze once it hits space? Yes, I realize there is the issue of what would carry away the heat, but shouldn't they still see something, even if it's a pinhole?

Congress doesn't have these powers.

Yes, they do. Had you ever read the discussions in the Senate about the amendments, you would have known this very subject came up. Unfortunately, his orange lardness has hidden from public view those historical records, so what I'm about to say goes from my memory.

Essentially, if Congress has the power to enact laws affecting the country, it is up to the Executive and Judicial branches to curb that power. Madison, despite opposition to the General Welfare Clause, admitted late in the life that clause granted Congress a power to legislate on all national problems. His nature of limited government was undercut by that clause, for if the national Congress could enact laws affecting the country, it wasn't a limited government, was it?

Further, as mentioned in the debates, Congress could delegate its authority. It would be inconceivable for Congress to be involved with the minutae of the country, to discuss and debate whether this or that is allowed. Instead, as granted by the Constitution, Congress has delegated its powers to others. Namely, agencies such as the FTC.

It's really hard to find these powers in such a tiny document without decades of legal training.

No it's not. All one need do is read the debates in the Senate to understand the mindset of the Founding Fathers. If you want more, reading a few books about those Founding Fathers would suffice to fill your lack of knowledge.

The first season of BSG had to have all that in it. They were just attacked. They had no military to protect them. Their home planets were being nuked. Their government was non-existent. The survivors had to make a run for it without any preparations. They had to figure out how to survive without any backup.

Aside from Apollo's "hack" to fool the cyclons, the first season was strong in what it had to be.

With Micro-USB, it was exactly the same, just five years early.

2 may, 16 "ukranian" firepoint drones in 3 waves on starobelsk (lugansk) students dormitory kills 21 and injures 41. this is ukranians killing (ex) ukranians, most of them kids. ofc barely reported in western media.

It was all over the media, just like when Russia deliberately bombed a school in Mariupol on March 16, 2022 which had a message it was being used as a shelter. At least 600 people were murdered by Russia.

24 may, russian explicit retalliation mainly on kiev, an exceptionally massive strike involving 100 missiles and hundreds of drones, most of them passing through and hitting infrastructure. civilian casualties: 4 (by worst-case ukranian accounts (unconfirmed))

On March 9, 2022, Russia deliberately struck Maternity Hospital Number 3 in Mairupol, murdering four people, wounding at least sixteen, and causing at least one still birth.

Shall we discuss the murder of civilians in Bucha by Russia? The mass rapes by Russia?

When Russia collapses due to Ukraine's victory, that will be a glorious day for celebration.

Long before the E.U. legislation went into effect, there were long consultations which standard to adhere too. So tech companies had enough time to read the writing on the wall and move. That was the reason why USB-C was ubiquitous everywhere when the due date came. Apple was struggling for some time, debating the idea, but finally caved with the 16 series.

Your argument is a typical strawman argument. You postulate the idea that the E.U. came up with USB-C as the next standard out of the blue, and then argue that companies were already transitioning when the legislation was finalized. But your postulate is (probably intentionally) wrong.

Comments on here repeatedly say people should only pay for what they use, whether this be water or electricity. Using AI is no different. The more you use the more you pay.

Not sure why this is controversial or surprising.

Of every tv show where a bomb has a convenient countdown clock on it. In the old days it was an alarm clock wired to the bomb, then it was changed to a red digital timer because progress.

Anyone remember the movie V for Vendetta? Conveniently, V's bomb in the control room had a countdown clock so the guy who had no idea what he was doing knew how many seconds he had left.

You might say waiting 2 days for a free delivery is super bad inconvenient,

Only whiners living in their parent's basement would say this. For nearly everything one could buy (excluding groceries), two days is insignificant. If you're in that much of a hurry to get something, either an emergency has come up or you're too stupid to plan ahead.

Not exactly. Personal originally meant "not shared with another person". Originally, it meant a computer only you have access to, only you install and run software, and only you store and retrieve data.

Apparently, you have never installed Nagios. Back in the days, when you ran the install script, it wrote out what it was doing, and then suddenly the lines appeared:

It was the same warning to you to vet any code before executing it.
