What an odd hill to die on. Maybe I just lost a $30M client because they wanted an issue fixed now. Maybe my company would get sued for violating their contractual obligations if someone went cowboy to bypass procedures. Maybe I pay for a s

“lol just use a workaround” doesn’t work in an environment with hundreds or thousands of employees coupled with audit, security, and other legal requirements to ship software.

Because the use case and demand versus the cost of engineering and manufacturing isn’t there. The market for USB headphones is minuscule compared to Bluetooth headphones.

In my experience, this is because a modern engineering organization is laser focused on delivering value. Value rarely aligns with refactoring an existing, working implementation. If need the data, you build an integration on the output dat

And if an aircraft needs to land due to an emergency? It’s amazing things work as well as they do, the system relies on only one thing going wrong at a time. This accident was an example of multiple things going wrong at the same time.

Can you share why this is unconstitutional? It’s dangerous and an awful idea, but I don’t find anything unconstitutional about this.

This is literally backed by data. 21 out of 25 emergency docker cases taken up with the Supreme Court were ruled in the Trump administration’s favor. Only one of the cases against the administration was unanimous. At the appellate level, Tr

I double checked my RAM purchase from early September. $450 for 128GB of DDR5. That same RAM is now $1400. I know it’s a bit naive to extrapolate from that, but something doesn’t smell right, the PC hardware market is clearly going through

The US isn’t homogenous country. It can’t become that without amending the constitution and then deporting or killing 40% of the population. Honestly, opinions like this are the best anti-white propaganda around.

I thought the same before I saw your comment. Several posters are new or have also posted on previous posts about Datastar (and are oddly aggressive.)

That same justification can be applied to block web browsers, any social media platform, and any navigation app that allows user alert inputs. The entire thing reeks of the same Biden-era pressures on companies that had pandemic misinformat

The civil rights movement in the US in the mid-20th century didn’t produce anything positive? The women’s rights movement? I’d say the lack of sharecroppers, let alone slaves, and the right of women to vote and speak freely is positive. I u

I’ve sat through a few Netflix talks and they’re all the same flavor of “look what you can achieve with millions of dollars and hundreds of engineers.” They’re somewhat interesting from an architectural perspective, but even scaled down ver

The last instances of impropriety took place seven years before charges were brought. I think that’s in a reasonable time period considering it’s was a conspiracy and had to be investigated. Government officials should be held to a higher s

These are not similar situations. In your example, they were merely charged and arrested. At that point, nothing has been proven. The case in question has already resulted in a conviction. It’s a pretty clear cut case of someone misusing go

Several anti-aircraft systems can and do use fragmentation warheads. The BUK that shot down MH17 used one and the impact patterns are strikingly similar. Take a look at the “Reconstruction” section in this: https://libraryonline.

You could get a sub-3% loan with anywhere from a 5-15% down payment without any holdings in the ballpark that is being discussed.

The poster wasn’t blamed, he was investigated, just like the post office was. Police didn’t just throw up their hands and walk away.

Her stated goal during her trial was to prove vote manipulation by Dominion, not to prove that voting machines are vulnerable. Rob a bank and say you were just pentesting, but the stolen money wasn’t the motivator, it was the public good.

Notice how all of your examples started with evidence. The participants did not start with a political goal and then work their way backwards to justify or prove it.

Tesla owners that bought a car last year is a very different number than all Tesla owners.

I'm going to miss the computer hardware sell/trade subreddits, they're one of the most active I've found and saves 20-40% over eBay or similar. All require a minimum account age and karma to reduce the risk of scammers.

Isn't it a reporters job to report the facts? The fact is the FBI was investigating them for a specific crime. It's already suspect that they left out that key fact. It's extra suspect when it turns out they had personal conn

It's common for car mechanics and construction workers, especially in specializations like electrical or HVAC, to own and use their own tools. Obviously, better employers provide stipends or some form of compensation.

He's not to blame for being hypocritical, the ones to blame are the people are being hypocritical because they'd be just as hypocritical as he is. Mental gymnastics gold medalist.

The disclosures actually showed that the Trump government and Biden campaign both requested removals. But only one of those two is a government entity and (oddly) evidence of that government entity's request was left out of the disclos

You're responding to a thread with evidence that a Twitter VP targeted an account that Elon has previously shown interest in. Next you'll tell me that Nixon didn't know anything.

They never explained how they'll process payments when VISA cuts them off.
