I’m very curious what they’d say it needs to pass in order to be “proven”.
And then I’m curious if a pack of ground beef from the grocery store would be able to meet the same standard

Interestingly, SEATAC airport has started doing exactly that in (at least Concourse D). It’s one big long hallway with sinks on one wall and floor-to-ceiling doors for the toilets. And a separate room off to the back with a sliding door for urinals. They’ve got enough toilets that wait times aren’t too atrocious
This is more permanent than it could be…instead of being able to be undone via executive order, it would take an incredibly rare and twisted court ruling or an act of Congress. Neither is that unlikely, however repealing it won’t be unilateral, and that means it’ll take time and political capital.
There are a lot of things about the steam deck I respect, including that the only difference in price points is down to available storage, not performance. It really makes the device so much more accessible
Don’t forget the (in)healthy amount of racism too.
I was incredibly mad before I realized I was reading George Soros, not George Santos. Now I’m only kinda mad
Is this really sidestepping sanctions? My understanding of the sanctions is that they’re less about us not wanting China to use them, and more about us not wanting China to get their hands on the physical cards so they can reverse engineer them/fully own the computation done with them. Overseas rentals seems like the intended direction for them to go, because they can still use the computation power, but don’t have the physical hardware (plus they could lose all access to the datacenters in case of war).
Cancel culture only really is a thing when the person on the receiving end is capable of feeling the tiniest shred of embarrassment/remorse for what they’ve done (not being caught). People fade into obscurity when they get “cancelled” because the massive outcry from the public convinces them they can’t ignore that what they’re doing is wrong anymore. In the case of most fascist hucksters (as well as Mr Beast), they are incapable of seeing that what they’ve done is wrong, so they can never be convinced of the need to stop
If there’s one thing this guarantees, it’s that Peelon has some guy in India remotely driving that Tesla
I can tell right now this show is a flop because it’s been out nearly a month and this is literally the first time I’ve heard of it. Nothing in the run up to release, nothing in nearly a month since.
Given that NATO mandates 2% GDP on defence, they’re pulling their weight. Estonia is not a large country, so $1.5B goes a lot further there than in larger nations.
When my grandmother passed, my grandfather took most of her books to her favorite local buy/sell/trade bookstore and got a pile of store credit for my brother and I. It took us over a decade to spend it all, and we probably only had $300 or $400 in that account to start with. But the store sold most books for less than $5. Amazon is out here charging $25 for a 40 year-old book as an ebook, and there’s no equivalent to buy/sell/trade secondhand bookstores in the ebook space.
The method I used actually (currently) doesn’t require a physical Kindle. I just had to download a specific version of Kindle for PC (Version 2.3.70682) and was able to quickly and easily use the Calibre extension to remove the DRM.
I’m not super confident it’ll always work, so I’m not planning on buying more books from Amazon, but it’s a good solution to pull my existing library into the ePub world.
That’s basically my attitude. As usual, piracy is a service problem.
I’ve recently bought a Kobo, and had great success removing the DRM from my Kindle library, then loading all my books there onto my Kobo. Just food for thought that such a thing is possible
As someone who has basically come to see “memecoin” and “scam” as synonyms, I have a hard time having any sympathy for anyone who puts money into this shit. Everyone knows that the endgame of every memecoin is for the creator to walk away with all the profit, right? Enough incidental people win a bit of money to keep everyone gambling that they can beat the scam, but everyone has to know that they’re feeding the scam when they buy in, right?

First time playing this one. I like it!
Abrams turrets are steeper and slope down towards the hull more. And the turret is overall thicker too, I think. Those are definitely Russian tanks, but my expertise on identifying Russian models is sadly lacking
Yanukovych was legally and democratically removed from office by his constituents because he was a corrupt traitor who was enacting seriously authoritarian policies that his people overwhelmingly rejected. It was the will of the people that he be removed and that Ukraine should forge closer ties with Europe, and anything contradicting that almost definitely has its roots in some Russian propaganda machine.
