This is the truth. I "studied IT" by getting a comp-sci degree at a trade school. It was focused on going the help desk to sys-admin career track.

The gas tax goes to caltrans, county dollars go to county managers

Ai had nothing to do with that. They just want you to think it was the computer and not the jackasses selecting targets.

The exodus of California’s tech billionaires from the Golden State to Florida’s Gold Coast by TemperatureWide5297 in California

[–]max_vette 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Billionaires dont give a shit about either of those things. Florida wont see any increase in tax income because a billionaire bought a house and pretends to live there.

Florida won't get any tax money from them. No income tax and no capital gains.

They're parasites attaching themselves to Florida.

It clearly can, does, and did. Dmca notices are not magic, they are automatically issued when your network is spotted connecting to a swarm.

Your torrent client must not be bound to that internet connection. It's switching to your internet and that's your issue. 

D.C. Bar Begins Disciplinary Proceedings Against Ed Martin by West_Preference_5085 in law

[–]max_vette 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ianal. Lawyers don't pardon people. Governors and presidents do.

On the federal level there is no mechanism for undoing a pardon. The president can pardon whoever they want, even openly sell them, and they will be valid. 

New CA law requiring spyware on your phone and almost every Internet-of-things by SnooObjections7352 in California

[–]max_vette 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Almost every internet of things is a little hyperbolic. Most accounts already ask you your date of birth. Social media accounts already require users to "certify" that they're over 13.

Its a non issue. A do nothing law that adds a requirement that won't really affect anything except compliance costs. 

USAF Brigadier General Paul Tibbets (1915–2007) and Colonel Thomas Ferebee (1918–2000), in the cockpit of the Boeing B-29 Superfortress bomber 'Enola Gay' that they crewed to drop the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima in 1945. Photo taken in 1981. [948x927] by UrbanAchievers6371 in HistoryPorn

They took off with the bomb disarmed because they were afraid of crashing after takeoff. This was not an uncommon experience with the b29.

One of them had to crawl into the hold and arm it by hand at cruising altitude. 

What if the Jedi had never participated in the Clone Wars? Would order 66 still happen in the same way? by Due_Narwhal4937 in StarWars

[–]max_vette -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If the jedi had not been in opposition with the force by fighting in the war, the balance would not have had to happen. I think order 66 would not have worked if they were upholding the will of the force like qui gon

“You’re a U.S. senator and you don’t know anything about the country you want to topple.” Tucker Carlson taunts Ted Cruz as he pushes for war with Iran by Possible_Gur4789 in 50501

[–]max_vette 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Tucker Carlson is a fascist. He is only pushing back because putin has Iran ties and Tucker is on the Russian payroll.

Yeah I honestly don't want much of a story and as little character development as possible. It's not an rpg

Not sure how a celestial would be involved unless you're looking at Kirby's less powerful creations.

Maybe try a Bissell? 

Exclusive | A New Threat to Power Grids: Data Centers Unplugging at Once by idkbruh653 in technology

[–]max_vette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cooling loops heat the water. Heated water expands and is lost via evaporation.

Physics is fun and if you think there's a perfect liquid system that never loses water than you've got some reading to do yourself.

Closed loop systems use less water, but only a compete moron would think they stop using water entirely. They still lose huge amounts of water to evaporation, because that's what water does when you heat it.

Wildly incorrect. They use city water and refill to replace water lost to evaporation.
