The decision, which you can read in detail at the link goes through ALL the detail of this vs borrowing books at the library. The court's decision is about whether the internet archive scanning and making digital copies of the physical books it has bought was fair use. They decided it was competing with the book publisher's own business of making and licensing digital copy of these books.

No it's one week battery life

the S&P 500 index only pays 1.5% of dividend a year. Meanwhile, some of us who were invested between 2000-2009 lived through "the lost decade" where our the stock portfolio returned to the same value it was at the beginning. It's only over much longer periods than a decade that you "can't lose money" .

You mean the mRNA vaccine gets your system to produce a protein that is part of the virus, so your immune system can fight it by producing antibodies. This process is actually not identical to your body's natural reaction to the virus, and the role of antibodies vs t-cells is not well-understood yet, and it's never been developed at this large scale. If everything was as simple as you say, all the vaccines, since they all cause antibodies to be produced for the same virus, would also have the same side-effects and no worse than Covid-19, but the J&J one and AstraZeneca are associated with much higher risks of blot cloths than a covid-19 infection and mRNA vaccines, and they've eventually been banned here in Canada after a few publicized deaths. So let's be humble and not say that we know everything and shouldn't worry about anything.

yeah right buddy, insert "you know, I'm something of a scientist myself!" gif

Zoom integrates with the Outlook calendar, with a corporate account. I've attended zoom meetings with over 1000 attendees, btw, at Autodesk. WebEx, for some reason at every corporate job I've had, it was an A&T conference call that was handling the audio, and it was always a lot of trouble having to dial in. I don't know if it was a cost issue or something. Companies were trying to move to GoToMeeting later to avoid all the trouble. Everyone just uses the Zoom built-in audio, eveything just works, across the world.

I'm always baffled when people complain that Outlook is slow. The corporate exchange server I am connected to is not even in the same country as I am. And outlook starts in about 7 seconds in a cool boot (ho often do you that, once a week?). That's still too long, but it's not 2 minutes. My mail is all on the server, no local .ost file. (probably the same for you too, since you switched to an (no longer developed afaik) imap client) But there are some crazy corporate spyware/management stuff that corporation install on our PCs that slow things down, and for sure "going rogue" and using another mail client that is not IT-managed works around that.

this trailler was made in 2012! gawd the acting in it is TERRIBLE

None of these has used cinepaint exclusivly. these productions used a hundred time more photoshop and roto tools than cinepaint. they also used Notepad, it doesn't mean that notepad is an awesome production tool. any crap gets used on production where there are hundreds of people and a dozen vfx companies involved. it's meaningless but the cinepaint people do love to hang on to the illusion. All of this only occured because of one programmer at Rhythm & Hues. Cinepaint was dump HARD quickly after.

it's because the title of the article has changed during the day, it used to the be "the feds", look at the footnote in the article
