W.r.t. your last paragraph: nope, nowhere close.

OK. Let’s say Red Hat Linux Distributors Inc. is the software licensor. And Red Hat Support LLC is the support provider. RHLDI distributes software (and source) in compliance with GPLv2. RHSLLC has a provision in its contract that a support

In at least a couple places, the article says what Red Hat is doing is “technically legal” or “technically in compliance” with the GPL. I don’t find it very useful or enlightening when people start talking about “intention” in this context.

I think he’s talking about general aviation which is … not in great shape, though the rumors of its demise are still overstated a bit. The main thing that made general aviation a far less accessible proposition were the lawsuits against the

Are you talking about when that FBI office got shot up? I too abhor political violence.

Yeah, that’s a pretty genius idea. I’d be totally supportive of anyone who wanted to pursue something like that. I just don’t think that seeking treatment like that overlaps very much with the FDA’s role and mandate. Not to say FDA doesn’t

I am possibly not following your comment - I have no idea how much it would cost to have it synthesized. I would guess a pretty binary distribution between “surprisingly cheap” and “staggeringly expensive.” Are you saying the point of the p

Well, uh, that’s what democratic accountability and elections are for, instead of targeting federal employees for assassination.

I grieve for this man and his family and loved ones, and I don’t know that I’d have the fortitude to fight for anything in the circumstances he’s facing. But I’m not sure what the goal is here. If there are experimental drugs that may be he

Oh man. That sucks, I’m sorry to hear that. I wonder what chintzy, value-destructive revenue generation opportunity they have in mind with these accounts. A one-time auction to the highest bidder seems like it wouldn’t generate enough juice

I believe from the facts that are known, he’s quite obviously not Australian, so alas, probably no deductibility for personal debt.

It’s like how there’s literally a whole generation of financial professionals who had never been through a rate hike. Gather round, VPs, time to learn about the real world.

I 100% agree with this take, and I say this as someone who has great respect for the use of debt (and, full disclosure, has a pretty fair bit of it to my name). It seems completely obvious that this strategy is predicated on never having l

That’s interesting. I’ve only been on one or two cruises, but my recollection of the article is that it all seemed directionally accurate, or at least plausible. It sounds like you certainly know better that I would, though, so I’m just cur

I really liked the Combat Flight Simulator set in the Pacific. It was a blast flying the Corsair.

The only really interesting breakdown I’ve seen along these lines was a dissection of how cheap Starbucks’ cost of capital is due to their gift card system. It’s quite a remarkable business they’ve created totally apart from selling coffee!

“Mistakes were made.” Between that and “I have no recollection,” that’s probably as far as any congressional hearing would be able to drill into this.

Oh gosh. That’s extremely bad and hard to read. I can’t decide what’s more distressing: some millionaire GP wrote that and thought he was being super profound, or the firm actually paid someone to write that for them. Stripe commissions goo

But… why? There are so many other competent, detailed, graphically rich flight sims that I think would run on that and not look like the Star Fox 64 alpha tech demo.

Hmmm. From the entry, Obama, Barack Hussein: “His presidency was noted for the rise of big tech, social media, revived russophobia and new wars in the Middle East although he promised no more Middle Eastern oil reliance.” Soooo… economic gr

I hope it was clear that no criticism was intended toward you. I take some (well, all) responsibility for lashing my content consumption to an early 2000s technology and all the corresponding drawbacks.

You might be interested in Tiny Combat Arena on Steam. Definitely not a source port, but shaping up as a spiritual successor.

What about the low(er)-fidelity DCS modules? Are you specifically looking for multiplayer, or would something like Flaming Cliffs 3 appeal to you?
