I bought a copy in late 2016. At the time CIG were running their "Answer the Call" campaign. At the previous year's citizen con they'd announced Squadron 42 would be coming out in 2016. When I bought in I figured even if they don't make the 2016 release window how long a wait could it possibly be, given they'd committed to 2016? Well, it's been 6 years and the email updates indicate that they're still working on extremely rudimentary features. They're nowhere near wrapping up something that was apparently a year away from release 6 years ago.

CIG later announced they'd be creating what is effectively a Battlefield clone called Theatres of War. Originally shown off at citizen con 2019, It's now been 2 years later and even that doesn't sound like it's coming any time soon.

CIG go beyond just giving bad estimates, they're persistently found to be outright lying about the state of the game and at the rate of progress they're making we'll probably be dead if it ever releases.

SC might not be an intentional scam, but if it isn't then the people running it are so incompetent that it might as well be.
>> The AirTags only update their position when an Apple device (made after 2015) is within the relatively short bluetooth range of the tag, with an internet connection.

Luckily the "only" is pretty good. There are Apple devices almost everywhere i'd need to track a lost bike/car/schoolbag.
We allow users to open .py files as notebooks in Jupyter, so you can get the best of both worlds: interactivity with Jupyter and nice code reviews. jupytext does the heavy lifting for us (it's a great package!) and we add some extra things to improve the experience

Well given that I worked on military comms for over a year I'd say I'm pretty knowlegeable.

Let's see, this system predates even my birth:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleet_Satellite_Communications...

It's still in use as recently as 2009, by pirates however. Newer systems include some form of conditional access to prevent anyone with the gear from using them.
I'd argue the opposite, everyone does it to some degree or another on every topic. There is a near-infinite degree of nuance to any given topic. You can slide up and down the ladder of abstraction depending on your own understanding and your audience.

Some people have the patience and curiosity to develop a more nuanced understanding of a topic and refuse to generalize in discussion, which has the effect of excluding those with a less nuanced understanding of the topic; others generalize faster, possibly for rhetorical purposes and to align with people lacking a more nuanced understanding of the topic. This leads to an amplification of the least nuanced position that the majority of people support. You see this effect in almost any community.

To avoid this, you'd have to devise a way to exclude people who refuse to develop a more nuanced understanding of any given topic (i.e. lack curiosity).
You have a "gaming addiction" as much as some people have a "network television" addiction. Some people just like to experience a medium for several hours a day. Playing four hours of LoL is just as meaningless as watching four hours of TV. One is more stigmatized than the other (I'll give you a hint, the one where ads can be delivered on a regular schedule is the more acceptable one). And I'm willing to bet that if there's something you need to do that night, you could sacrifice one or two days to get things done and not feel any ill effects (and if I may rib on it a bit, probably feel much better having stepped away from LoL).
Interesting, because I realize I would not personally want that done with models, in my apps models/controllers frequently don't have a 1-1 relationship.

But controllers and view templates almost always do, because of the nature of the architecture.

So actually just using the `view_component` gem for all my views from now on (not just partials) probably satisfies me!

Another question to ask - who lost most of the ETH in the first place? Could some of this be VCs paying themselves back and shoring up their investment in Solana at the same time?
Wormhole is now owned by the crypto arm of a large traditional financial trading company, Jump Trading. Here's a tweet from the CEO of Jump Crypto saying that they put up the funds:

"Jump put up 120k of it’s own ETH because we believe in Wormhole and want to support it in this stage of its development."

https://twitter.com/KariyaKanav/status/1489312871456649228

I think Jump Crypto also also heavily trading across the bridge, which means that some portion of the lost funds were their own funds.

Select max speed and then go zoom in somewhere rural and see "1Mbps to 25Mbps" and then switch over to min price or provider counts...

There aren't a lot of options in rural areas and running wire to the spot is expensive.
This is a false comparison.
like the Pah Wraith were Plutonium and the Fire Caves were Yuca Mountain.
It encourages you in the sense that the marginal cost of turning your heat up to 75 in the winter instead of 70 is much lower, or that buying a 4000 sq. ft. house will not come with as big an increase on your monthly costs as it does now.
So then no other vaccines have led to or provided herd immunity?
Very good question. The idea is to ask people thought-provoking questions, in order to create a discussion, and just arouse interest and have something to think about.

But definitely, I'm thinking that there should a mix of "heavy" questions and lighter ones.
> - you can’t access the unique identifier on iPhones as an app developer. Apple blocked that years ago.

There's an advertising id built-in into the device... Just the thought of that on a browser would make everybody scream.

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/marketing-api/conversio...

> - ad blocking doesn’t work well or at all for first party ads like FB, Reddit and Twitter use.

For now, only Facebook is resisting on it's own website with some obfuscation but I have no doubt that new browser apis will close that gap. For Facebook tracking on external websites it does work though, something I can't say exists at the moment in the mobile world.
A) LoRa is proprietary so we wouldn't be better off on that axis

Not a big surprise.

I can buy a lot of things and modify it to do bad things.

AirTag is an interesting choice as if you want to REALLY track someone I think an AirTag is a wonky choice. Very much a cheap-o 'best effort' kind of tracking.

Try FreeRangeCloud in Vancouver. They offer IX VPS that allows you to connect to Unmetered Exchange, OPTiX and EVIX. HE is providing free IPv6 transits at Unmetered Exchange, so you can just email them to setup.
I suspect some are sold by disgruntled employees who are disturbed by the internal culture.
Or, perhaps Apple only cares about the anti-stalking feature up to the point where it makes the product impossible to implement, because both have the same use case (finding). There are many AirTags in my family, and I'm constantly hearing beeping and getting notifications that I'm being followed, because my wife is sitting next to me, with her purse on her lap, and her keys, and her wallet. And guess what, you can't "trust" someone else's AirTag. I can't permanently turn off the notifications, because stalkers would do that too. The amount of anti-stalking that's present is so annoying as is that I'm probably not going to be buying any more.

In your opinion, what else could Apple do here, assuming you're familiar with the product?
There days Mercedes doesn't really export non-luxury vehicles to the US except for maybe sprinter vans.
TV and podcasts are moving towards surveillance based advertising too. Look at the rise of smart TV's, cable, and streaming services that require identification and location as well as the various ad supported podcast players.

Your are correct if you are using over the air TV or Kodi and if you use FOSS podcast players such as Antennapod or Podverse.
Volvos are popular in the US and have a conventional cab design.
I can share several!

If you're running Firefox, you can go to `about:telemetry` and see what data is there. Note that some of that data might be populated even if you have telemetry turned off. Don't reach for your pitchfork quite yet: I assure you that the data isn't being sent.

You can go to https://telemetry.mozilla.org to see various analyses involving telemetry data.

This specific instance might be true, I don't know. But it seems incorrect to base an argument off Apple getting less/more coverage than a company like Amazon.
I wouldn't mind if the CCP wants to own all the garbage content on tiktok as a tactic against us, as long as people are aware of the nonsense hosted on there.

Thanks, @libsoftiktok.
If the law is going to mandate staying connected to the grid (subject to any maintenance fees the utility company desires, independent of usage), then those grid maintenance fees should be moved to tax dollars.
It's about a facebook inside joke on a facebook opensource project. You are aware of the corporate info on the reactjs.org page footer right?
Most people don't have the medium.

I have 30Go of music files on my laptop, that I carefull update, and backup. I add to the collection once in a while.

But few do that anymore: no cd player in devices, and file systems are being abstracted away remember?

So they listen to music on youtube, spotify, soundcloud, etc.

They don't own the music, hence they can't chose the player.

You're right to such a degree that I distinctly remember my first impression of him being formed by Rush Limbaugh (my dad was a listener) making fun of what a dishonest, sleazy joke of a human being Trump was. Must have been some time in the 90s. His reputation was decades in the making, and at one time that take on him was practically universal. The transformation was fascinating to watch.

They had breaches attributed to China and North Korea, IIRC. The former led to their exit from China.

Maybe it was because for the last two years everyone was stuck at home because of Covid.

There are only so many Netflix movies/shows you can watch before you start playing around with number theory out of sheer boredom.
I wonder this same thing every time Star Citizen hits the news again.

What baffles me most about the whole thing is how much value SC fans are placing on the ideas versus the execution of those ideas. It's almost as if people think that other game studios just aren't as creative or haven't thought beyond the scope of what they've delivered in shipped games. Like the only reason Assassin's Creed doesn't allow players to start their own splinter group of assassins to operate within a robust, period-correct world economy and political system is because no one ever thought of it. What gamer hasn't sat down to make a list of features for her dream game and eventually realized what she was describing was just an 'entire universe where everything is possible' sim?

As with most artistic and technological achievements, the greatness comes from actually producing a game that manages to satisfactorily offer some portion of that dream list, not from coming up with the list itself.

> The kids really loved Beat Saber, but they played it by sitting on the couch, staring straight ahead, and twitching their wrists.

That's completely missing the point of it. If you're not swinging your arms around like a maniac and aren't lying in a puddle of sweat after a few songs, you're not really doing it right. Also, Beat Saber penalizes you for such minimal movement.

> The truth is that existing games are already very immersive. Getting the kids out of Minecraft or Roblox or Horizon takes a crowbar. if you want do demonstrate that this new technology is truly more immersive, you'll have to show not just that you think it's cool, but that a mass audience actively prefers it and won't go back.

Immersion to me is not addiction, it's immersion. Feeling like you're inside the game, for however long that happens to be.
You cannot make those multiplications. When there's no wind, having 2.5x the wind turbines doesn't help at all. In very general terms, adding a 9 to the reliability stats on engineering projects, usually adds an order of magnitude in the cost.

But more importantly, nuclear plants are up WAY over 90% of the time. If they need to do maintenance, they do one reactor at a time in the 4-5 reactor plant. This is similar to how they do maintenance on one turbine at a time in a hydro plant.
If it does (or did) I can see this being near the end of consoles. Or at least a price hike.

Their entire model is based on selling hardware near at-cost and making up the margins in software cuts (and accessories).

If you can side-load any game you want now you are just buying a privately subsidized PC.
> They insert ads into music playlists, they often skip more than one track, they don't truly shuffle music, and they also add a ton of frustration with buffering and connectivity issues into the simple process of listening to music

Why are you comparing music players to streaming services? That's like comparing a Honda Civic to a cement mixer. You don't use both to accomplish the same job even if they both have four wheels and a gas pedal.
Like all the shitty games with circular ads that which I also think should not exist? Can't wait for an actual curated store.
It's a disservice to the high-usage customers, who want to offload their environmental costs onto their grandkids and/or countries less equipped to deal with climate change. Soak 'em, I say.
Jimmy Carter hasn't received CAR-T therapy afaik, but he's gotten other recently developed immuno modulatory anticancer therapy --pd1 inhibitors-- and I suspect that's a big reason for him still being alive.

I can say the same for a family friend who probably had 6 months to live w advanced prostate cancer (this was about ten yrs ago). Shortly after his prognosis a new prostate cancer drug--xtandi-- was approved and he lived another 5 years.

Many anticancer drugs have incremental benefit, but some recent advancements have been revolutionary.
Not sure why you're being downvoted, valid question. I don't know how they work, but I assume they are linked to an account.

Why even involve the cops - if you have an airtag, you should be able to scan it's code and it reveals the account holder's name.
Now that you mention it, I can't think of any other concept I eventually researched and learned about just because of frameworks complaining (Spring framework in my case).
You're right that the border states may not be theoretic ethno states but they are confessionalist states. Palestinian refuges have less political representation and rights on these border states than Israel as well. They're literally barred from naturalization in Syria and Lebanon.

Israel's actions according to AI aren't actions based in the context of reality. That's the problem. The characterization of apartheid is absurd. Nearby nations treat Palestinians as a lesser class of human. Israel doesn't at all. If the driving concern of the report was the well being of Palestinians, there are numerous facts they could have addressed in the region that wouldn't have required manufactured falsehoods, contextual manipulation, or ignoring terrorism.

As time goes on, more and more point by point callouts of the blatant falsehoods proclaimed throughout the report will occur, but the NGO-Monitor one is a great place to start.

I suspect all of this is wrong.

The maximum length of an articulated vehicle in Germany (and most of europe) is 16.5m or 54 ft. [1]

The maximum length of a vehicle in California is 65 ft. California is one of the more restrictive states when it comes to vehicle length simply because of the age of the road network.

The longest vehicle you'll see in the states are turnpike doubles, which are around 130 ft long, the longest total permitted vehicle length in Europe is 65 ft.

The US used cabovers before vehicle length rules were liberalized, and thats why we don't anymore, drivers prefer conventional trucks, the ride better, largely handle better, and are safer for the driver.

Music players were decoding local files and spitting out the output, now they're streaming platforms. Despite fitting the same niche of "I want to listen to music" for many people, they're not selling you the same product at all.

AFAIK the local players still exist, many still in active development, for those who want to own their data.
OK, now do that for the 50 or so other national health agencies that have independently approved these vaccines. Or did you forget that these vaccines have been reviewed and approved by thousands of qualified staff all over the world?
I don't get that impression. It's patched and more resilient now, the exploit occurred with someone watching the github about the patch, or even more likely it was someone on the dev team/discussion about why the patch was needed. The "guardians" are still there and distributed. I don't see more distributed bridge styles being real competitors at least to Wormhole on the Solana network. Individual users didn't lose funds and their exposure is always limited to a few minutes.
Apple has many competitors and others they deal with, who have many motives. Sans evidence, everything is speculation. Drawing a linefrom a potential motive to action is the stuff of fiction.
Someone on a bike isn't very likely to kill someone they didn't happen to see when they roll through a stop sign or light. Also, bikes tend to be slower, and the biker has considerably more visibility than someone in a car. I roll through stop signs on a bike, but when I do so, I know for sure that there's no one around, because I slow down some, look around, and I'm able to properly see everything.

I think most bikers stop (or at the very least slow down) for red lights. I don't usually wait for red lights, but unless I'm able to see clearly that it's safe, I'd never just run one, because I'm not suicidal. Again, having much more visibility, and a lot more time to scope out the situation makes this considerably safer for the person on the bike.
Do these papers differentiate infection with and without vaccination? Meaning, if an unvaxxed person has X myocarditis risk from the vaccine, and Y from infection, what is the myocarditis risk of infection after vaccination?
> I pay $0.13 per kWh in my town.

So assuming $15/month, you are using 115kWh, which is 392kBTU of heating energy. It takes about 83kBTU to heat 200gal of water from 50F to 100F, which would be like 5 full heat ups from 50F. Of course there are the other convolved factors you mentioned (insulation).

Opening up the platform to allow other app stores sounds great for consumers, but developers are likely to lose money...

Maybe Apple will give developers the ability to determine whether the app was installed from Apple or some other source.
I think you have answered your own question. If you want to know "how do you make people feel welcome and accepted in your classroom", just ask that. Tell people to write a statement of pedagogy or something, where they discuss the things you care about.

Your problem is the DEI label. Your DEI office is working hard to convince the world that all whites are racists, which leads to pearls like this one which just came out today: https://alex-hanna.medium.com/on-racialized-tech-organizatio... I was not on the receiving end of the rants of this particular person, but similar expressions of deluded ontology happened all the time. You appreciate that calling one's colleagues racist all the time is not conducive to a good working relationship.

Maybe DEI was a good thing in academia years back. That horse has sailed. In the same way as people have redefined racism from KKK to "anything that leads to unequal outcomes", DEI is now associated with "the world is racist", "everybody is a white supremacist", "white fragility", and all this stuff. The message that your DEI office sends is pretty clear.

I wish you to be able to retain control over the choice of your colleagues forever.
Ok here is another analogy. Imagine Microsoft not only bundling internet explorer with windows in the early 2000s, they made it not physically possible to even install a different web browser on the computer. On top of that, Microsoft demands complete control over what’s on your website (in its website review policy), and takes 30% of all your revenue otherwise Microsoft customers are no longer able to visit your website. And sure you can buy a Macintosh instead, but they’re doing the exact same thing except with Safari. The current situation is not any different. People seem to be tricked into going along with this because “security.” Legislators would have had a field day with that.
Fantastic! Then I have no complaints. The grid is a great resource, IF you are using it, then you should pay for it. And mid-day solar (when PG&E curtails their own solar) does not have same value of power at 6PM - so they need to fix that for sure, which will result in more local battery demand (a good thing).
