The supreme court seems to think otherwise. I'm as surprised as anyone, given the current make-up of our nation's highest court.

"Chatrie v. United States, the Supreme Court recognized one’s digital location as firmly protected by the Constitution from police searches without a warrant."

While specifically related to cell tower dumps and geofencing, it's not a far fetched idea that using aggregated digital records of one's location (based on license plate reader records) could eventually be classified the same way.

"Balor Games is built for inventors and [...] exists to be a seal of quality for independent games."

Not clear how this can be sustainable, unless they are bringing something truly unique to a saturated market. Quality costs FAR more money to develop and maintain than traditional games in this space. Investors want growth, growth requires profit, profit requires either increased revenue with steady cost, or steady revenue with decreased cost. That's big hill to climb year-on-year, as it's unclear how much value customers in this market place on quality vs quantity. Guess time will tell.

It was a Tuesday, and Trump chickened out, as always.

Bring the feature black!

...Executive Order requiring Microsoft to reverse all it's clearly DEI-driven decisions since the creation of BSOD, and make it the WSORUKP (White Screen of Rapid Unscheduled Kernel Panic) to ensure no Windows Users will be subjected to Far Left rhetoric in the form of anti-American colors like Blue or the deceptively tricky use of no color (aka: Black) being displayed on their computer screens.

"These results suggest that Zhulong must have been forming stars very efficiently and is in the transformation phase from star-forming to quiescence. In concluding remarks, the authors of the paper note that Zhulong appears to be the most distant spiral galaxy discovered to date"

Either this was written by AI or the human author was a key contributor to the training data for ChatGPT.

Spot on! The things you listed are critically important to reduce the impact an earthquake can have on a large number of aspects of our lives, many of which we don't consider important until they aren't available. "Earthquake warning" should conjure images of gas mains burning in the streets, derailed trains, loss of power across entire townships. Instead, many envision themselves standing in their house and wondering which door frame to stand in.

14,000 feet = 2.6515 miles
Terminal velocity air brake: 140 miles per hour
140 mph = 2.3333 miles per minute
Total time from when engine is cut to abrupt halt due to impact with hard surface: 1.1364 minutes = 1 minute 8 seconds = 68 seconds.

Getting out of plane = A seconds
Orienting yourself and traversing from your plane to destination plan = B seconds
Getting into destination plan = C seconds
Starting engine and pulling out of nosedive = X seconds

A+B+C+X must be less than 68 seconds.

The risk of demise is almost purely on the planes - since the stunt people can simply pull their chutes and let the planes crash while they float gently to the ground. That is, right up until they get into the destination plane. That's a relatively small window, given the variabilities involved.

I wish them luck.

My first question: Once the routes of these new cars is understood, how will folks get themselves in the pictures? Will it just look like vast grave yards under our streets?

Intel: "Given that the restoration of our supply channels is almost complete, we didn't want anyone to get the idea we would return to pre-pandemic pricing. Our underlying costs of material and labor have gone down, compared to two years ago, but we want our customer base to realize - we're not giving up our insanely high margin without a fight. Competition has never been lower, and our product hasn't seen this level of demand since we first launched our way-cool "Intel Inside" commercials, and everyone thought if they bought a PC with one, they too would be allocated a clean-room outfit to wear while dancing to flashing lights near their PC. Our new advertising catch phrase will be: 'SHOW ME THE MONEY!'"

Luckily for him, he had received his tracking imp^h^h^h^h^h^h^h^h^h "COVID Vaccination" just a few days prior, making it much easier to find him.

I for one welcome our new Worm overlords!

...is like declaring victory because you're the last person to hit the ground in the plane crash. How much has this cost Novell and IBM in real $$'s? With SCO bankrupt how can either expect to recoup any of the 7 years of court costs?

That's the next question outta my mouth after trying to figure out why the #!*@$ I walked into the kitchen in the first place.

Where's my blue sharpy marker?
