What's mentioned here is trivially 'fixed', it's setting stuff which can filled in. The bigger issue is the magic system and description, especially combined with the very active divine system. D&D without it could b

It's too commonly argued Einstein didn't produce anything after GR. This article is a welcome correction. The same collaboration produced the EPR paradox - a real achievement which taught us a great deal about quantum theory.

Yeah, the Muslim Brotherhood was such a swell brand, just tell the Copts that. Transnational Islamism doesn't make any trouble either. And to be frank, the US didn't want communism to take over after apartheid. One Mugabe was bad

The context ('business LAN or industrial machine') referred to internal networks. What happened there doesn't really effect IPv6 adoption.
222.
by yyyk 2y ago
I mean 'disabled in network adapter connection properties'. If you're already using IPv4 there's no reason for the extra complications of leaving IPv6 enabled.

Every Windows-based business LAN or industrial machine I know still has IPv6 disabled. Most other targets are too low value for people to bother.

Yeah, of course medical supplies count, I'm just saying there's no right for commercial traffic per se - the prewar count had a lot of stuff that's not relevant. The typical procedure is that Israel inspects the cargo and all

True. I never assumed that, though I see now why my phrasing could imply it. You're right - they're probably not stepping in that court. But even if they did, it would take years. My other point - ICC can issue secret warrants,

The real issue with the warrants isn't 'equating'. It's the political point to cover two deeper issues: First, that Biden admin and others can't escape culpability for any such claim if it's considered credible

It's really not in Israel's interests to hamper any aid if it ever was. There's no need to coerce on this point. Biden could have gone 'Yay ICC!' and still got cooperation here. Israel has three alternatives: Option

Without expressing opinion on the warrants: A) I'm told warrant approval is almost always a rubberstamp. B) There will be a discrediting campaign, but ICC's future is the least interesting thing to me. C) I'm not sure this le
