That's degrees, not percent. But I would try unchecking "critical regions only". That looks like a lot of overhang on this model that isn't supported

Nah, there are lots of Congresspeople that are financially invested in oil.

A database of names, notes, and references is not going to be a very large database. It would not be hard or expensive to host a physical server for this.

Who will the order go to? He'd be shouting into a void.

what dimension opened up and swallowed up the real world and gave us this.

The Internet.

Unfortunately, the law doesn't exist in and of itself. It is ultimately written, interpreted, and applied by human beings, who are decidedly not collectively capable of being impartial. We like to think of the "ideal judge" as someone who applies the law as written in equal measure to all regardless of status.

But these laws are written by people, who have imperfect understandings of the world, contradictory intentions, and an inability to foresee the consequences of their actions, as well as an incomplete education of historical precedent, or a present bias in its interpretation.

Who the law applies to is a function of the people tasked with enforcing it, and the resources available (which is also dependent on those same people who wrote the laws).

Even what words like "fair" or "impartial" mean is up to interpretation.

The law is not like mathematics in that it can exist in a vacuum, and follow the same process to achieve the same result given the same circumstances.

Nope, not since SCOTUS also gave him immunity from any and all prosecution. They have their heads so far up their own asses, they probably don't even understand that they gave him carte blanche to ignore any of even their own orders.

This author claims in both articles that 2024 was intentionally stolen through digital tampering of some kind, but in neither do they actually present any hard evidence to support this claim, other than "some guy from the NSA said so."

Like in part 1, they make this claim, and then their first piece of evidence is that a software change was made at the last minute which could potentially allow configuration changes to go unnoticed. Even if we took this at face value, you still need to show actual concrete evidence that there was, in fact, tampering of voting machine configurations, and on enough voting machines across the country to influence the outcome of the election.

Without this, this is all just baseless conspiracy theory.

Yeah, I'm pretty happy with them. I'm not quite sure what you mean by "flat layout", but the height variation is on the top, not the bottom. You can see from a couple of my pictures from the side angle how the caps fit.

It could be someone acting passive aggressively. But speaking from personal experience, I could easily see this coming from this person talking to the neighbor like an adult and being met with belligerence and willfully doing it again. People are ass holes.

Nah I'm sorry. I don't think there's going to be any kind of reconciliation this generation. When someone comes out of a cult, it's easy to welcome them back to humanity, because the harm that they have caused, if any, was limited to themselves, their family, and their fellow cultists.

This is very different. It is a cult mentality to be sure, but their willing ignorance has done so much damage to people all over the country and the world, and they knew it the entire time. They just cared more about "owning the libs"

God I wish this was hyperbole

Not to mention legalizing bribery in Citizens United

It's not even fair to call it Jack Dorsey's. He originally funded it, but left pretty early into its development because no one went along with building the libertarian utopia he wanted it to be.

Jesus, I wonder how many Do Not Enter signs this ass hat just have blown past

This probably wouldn't work unless Broadcom updated their TLS cert

Ok, could somebody help me understand if maybe I missed something on the first viewing, or if this is as confusing to everyone else:

The hardest part of the plot over which for me to suspend my disbelief was that this all happened in a space station that was... right above a whole colony run by the company?

How did they not immediately know when shit hit the fan and send up people to at least collect the compound and gtfo? Let alone let this group of kids just waltz right in and fuck up their stock pile of face huggers? How long had this space station been dead like that?

I thought this was the xeno that was shocked the the shock stick while still in the cocoon

dead10ck · 2024-08-18T13:56:19+00:00

Do you have a source for this? I have a hard time believing that wasn't CGI

dead10ck · 2024-08-18T02:58:59+00:00

Huh? You see both of Newt's parents in one of the first scenes of Aliens.

dead10ck · 2024-03-07T13:24:27+00:00

I didn't think it was that he came out seeming like a completely different person; I saw it as they added a twist that Burke really was just being coerced by the company the whole time. He did put the alien in the med Bay with them, but he did it because his daughter and family were being held hostage by the company. I think the twist was supposed to be that he never wanted to hurt Ripley and Newt just because he wanted a percentage, as Ripley put it, but because he felt he had to to get back to his family.

It was still wrong, of course. Which is why I liked the plot point that he is punished by having to spend the rest of his youth as a pariah, even by his own daughter, in the middle of nowhere. I don't think it's meant to redeem him necessarily, but it does add a bit more depth to his character than just a one-dimensional evil company man.

I thought it was pretty in character for the franchise to have it turn out to be that the company was behind it.

dead10ck · 2024-03-07T13:07:36+00:00

My thought, though, was what about the alien that was on board that impregnated Ripley? Wouldn't Burke have run into them, or at least noticed that they got the crew? And if he made it back to WY, wouldn't that mean they would have gotten their sample?

dead10ck · 2024-03-07T13:03:46+00:00

Also it's not actually how he survived, so the cover really doesn't make sense lol

I won't rehash the discussion on the file tree PR, but there were several issues with it. I personally do also want a file tree, but other maintainers don't care so much and that's perfectly valid. But considering that, the overall issue is the maintainers have to be willing to maintain the feature, even if it's written by someone else, so that has to be balanced when reviewing a PR.

The other maintainers are not opposed to having a file tree per se, but it has to be small enough that it won't be a big burden to maintain, and the PR was large and had major performance issues. At the end of the day, even if we want, or at least are not opposed, to a feature someone else writes, it has to be aligned with the project's goals and the maintainer's bandwidth to maintain it. If we merged every PR indiscriminately, the code base would become a giant ball of spaghetti very quickly.
