14·1 day agoHe was allowed to run because McConnell stonewalled Obama and let Trump select a bunch of Supreme Court appointees, which then decided that trump can’t be held accountable for anything.
Then everyone decided the rule of law was important, except trump, which means he’s steamrolling every safeguard we had.
I’m sorry I called you a knob, that’s an insult to knobs. You’re actually much, much worse.
No deal with Trump has ever been secure. The only thing he is the king of is reneging on deals.
Anyone who actually wants a payment from trump needs 100% payment upfront, otherwise you’re just getting a small fraction of the agreed upon deal, if anything.
11·4 days agoHe’s rallying the EU against us, will probably make the EU stronger than ever, which is probably good for peace there.
12·5 days agoNot all cd players had an accessible lens. A car deck had a slot insert and there was no way to get at the lens without disassembling the whole thing.
Computer CD players also had a tray that extended so the lens was mostly hidden.
Boomboxes and portable CD players had pop up lids where you could see the lens, but there were probably an equal number of players where you couldn’t access it.
Shift-A and Shift-I to append at the end or insert at the start.
Once you know the system, it’s much easier to do everything without having to take your hands off the keyboard to use a mouse.
Literally the only thing I code in at work. Have done so for decades.
Can’t stop, won’t stop.
They’re TECHNICALLY still up there for political/budget reasons. If they wanted to buy a new capsule to go get them, we could.
But on the same note, ALL of the astronauts are “stuck” up there for budget/political reasons. We’re not going to bring them up and down willy-nilly cause it’s way too expensive. They should have come back months ago, but since they’re original capsule was decided to be too risky, they pushed it back to the next available SpaceX capsule.
Elon is both arguing for an INCREASE in funding to go get them now (which is far too late, we wouldn’t be able to safely prep and send a mission to get them back sooner), but also DECREASE funding for the ISS. Just whatever gets him attention and more numbers in his Forbes ranking.
It’s also underselling what they are providing.
You get to skip all the AI garbage, all the sponsored links, and the “what other people are asking” sections and just go straight to the search results.
Privacy is the primary selling point, but the clean “old school” google interface is what I’m really excited about. I’ve set my default search in the browser to Leta for now.
