Until streaming providers start doubling the price of the monthly plan to offer a 50% discount on an annual plan.

And on that day, a narcissist named Richard Nixon fired a scientist named Alvin Weinberg to prevent any adoption of Molten Salt Reactors, which threatened thousands of jobs in his native California because they may have delayed construction of his California reactors and thousands of jobs. Hey. did you know a fast fission reactor like an MSR with onsite reprocessing leaves literally the same amount of long term radioactive material as Fusion? Probably not. Did you know fusion has radioactive byproducts, mainly tritium and deuterium? Obviously not. Really, both give us a 100 year problem (until they decay to background radiation).

I have nothing against fusion, but fission is a viable option, just not what we have. I think pebble bed is the next step in fission. I think the MIT super magnet fusion project will overtake the failed Tokamak projects.

If they want to use it, they kind of have to. AGPL infects all of your products source code for every project that uses it. You either need to relicense it under a more restrictive license or basically release all of your source code for every product you own. Siemens is a for profit company, they will do that vs what Stalin... er, I mean Stallman wants.

I really have no skin in this game right now, but I've seen what highly infectious licenses can do when you're putting in thousands of hours coding a commercial product on top (basically, the GPL2 rebranded GPL3 DLL code all had to be removed). Yeah, if it was all paid for by someone, great, but it wasn't. The FOSS model is actually built on top of OS companies footing the bill for software products to be built on top of them, not what people think, which is people developing software in their free time. I do the latter, for FOSS, but it doesn't pay my bills.

What else is new? Stupid humans relying on error prone satellite early launch detection systems already almost started WW3 on September 26, 1983. A Soviet Lieutenant identified it as a false alarm because no other system reported it and the "retalitory" nuke launch was aborted.

These homeless shoppers are likely to get poached sooner rather than later. With the deep knowledge they build up of any given Walmart store's layout, they'd make good candidates to get hired into the store's online grocery pickup (OGP) department.

I don't know if HEB includes a tip, but I know that Walmart doesn't do tips. When I worked in the front end of a Walmart Supercenter six years ago, associates were trained to refuse tips, and if someone insists, to ring it up as a donation to whatever charity Walmart is collecting for at the time. Often that ends up being the nearest Children's Miracle Network hospital.

You mean super AMERICA intelligence, because everything with AMERICA in it is 100 zilliongoogleplexTRUMPISNUMBERONE!!!! more better that duper. Duper is for pussies in the lunch line getting beaten for their change. Dupers pee their beds.

Actually, having narcisstic personality disorder and a superiority complex is kind of fun. I need some better made up putdowns, but still fun.

True enough - Comcast for years paid a monopoly fee on fiber and coax and passed it on to consumers, for a while it was even listed as a monopoly fee, then they changed it to a local service fee or something like that. It was basically a $5-7 a month tax for Comcast to maintain a monopoly. That all disintegrated during 5g offering competition, thankfully, but Comcast still gouges hard for business service.

It'll be American Intelligence in just a couple of hours. From Planet America, in the American Galaxy after the Big Bang of America Truth.

If you have three different compilers for a language, and you bootstrap a compiler using all three of them, the first generation (e.g. GCC compiled with QuestionableCC, ShadyCC, or SlopCC) should be functionally identical, and the second generation (GCC compiled with GCC, which was compiled with the other compiler) should be bit-identical. See "Fully Countering Trusting Trust through Diverse Double-Compiling" by David A. Wheeler. Some people have trouble trusting Rust because only the latest stable rustc can compile the latest stable rustc.

You said home ISPs sought to deploy Trusted Network Connect about 20 years ago. It hasn't happened. What's holding it up? The rise of mobile devices, smart TVs, and other devices incompatible with the remediation means available in quarantine?

If likes and boosts are overrated, then is there a way to find others' posts about a topic or to get more replies to my posts?

From the summary: "Current prices are tied to retail. Without physical discs holding digital hostage we'll see a larger spectrum of pricing." As I understand this, paid downloads did not lower prices of AAA games because of retail price parity contracts. Paid downloads did, however, make the $5 to $20 tier for indie game pricing viable.

One thing not mentioned in the summary is that publishers of games distributed in physical copies owe a royalty to the age rating agency of each region in which a game is published. Publishers of downloadable games do not, instead relying on self-certification through the IARC form. The age rating agencies allow this because it's a lot more practical to update a game once it is found to have been misclassified.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person who ever posts in the tag for a particular toy line. Either I guessed the wrong tag, or I'm the only person on fedi interested in that topic. Which is more likely?

The summary states that Reddit owes the OP a reason why the user was banned, as well as a complete, untruncated copy of the user's posting history.

The summary states that the relevant law is Article 17 of the EU's Digital Services Act.
