2 of them were Galaxy Notes and others were flagships as well. Quit being a douche.

I had four android phones from three different manufacturers die in less than a year, one of them wouldn’t put out any updates after a year either. I went back to iPhone and it lasted for four years.

I’m not voting with my wallet, I’m picking the device that causes the least amount of headache and just fucking works when I need it to. I have to have one of these to keep my job.

You are making a lot of assumptions. All the private and charter schools in my town are extremely religious and constantly on the verge of losing accreditation due to prioritizing profit and religion over education. That’s the big reason nobody is using the vouchers my state is trying to push.

When I was in 9th grade one of them was forced to close and several people had to redo grades. I was in class with people who had been sophomores and juniors that’s how bad their private school was.

I’m not saying all private schools are bad or that all public schools are good, but yeah, you are making a lot of assumptions.

That’s only the Cavendish, there are other varieties of banana. I was recently in Hawai’i and got to try an Apple Banana that had been grown there.

This is cool but it shows where tribes are now, not where they were before removal.

I’m not sure if it happened in this case but Ars is known to use A/B titles. It auto selects the title more people clicked on after a couple hours.

That’s because elevators use counter weights usually equal to the weight of the car and half the occupancy load so that it takes less energy to lift it and if it falls for any reason it won’t hit the bottom as long as the counter weights are still attached. The occupancy load is determined by the counter weighting system not the cable load capacity.

Modern phones will still ping the Bluetooth low energy networks like Find My for Apple devices even when off or on airplane mode. That’s how things like AirTags work.

Don’t forget the LA County Sheriff… just as bad, slightly different jurisdiction…

Wait… is it for turning non Catholics Catholic, or can you only use it on current Catholics?

That’s literally how think tanks work. Their paychecks come from Caltech not NASA. They answer to the board of governors not NASA. But you also seem to have forgotten the context of the original comment I was replying to.

How? My point was that management decisions regarding JPL don’t come from NASA. Misremembering the institution doesn’t negate the point I was making.

I misremembered, but my point still stands; the decision for layoffs, this being the third round in 18 months, didn’t come from the government it came from JPLs management which isn’t NASA.

AFAIK JPL is part of the University of California, not NASA and I’m pretty sure this isn’t the first round of layoffs at JPL in the last few years.

Edit: It’s Caltech. I misremembered.

Edit 2: People seem to not be understanding what I am saying so I will clarify: JPL - Founded in 1936. NASA - Founded in 1958.

While NASA is the primary sponsor of JPL today its management has always fallen to its original founder, Caltech. Both JPL and Caltech are considered Federal Contractors. The decision to lay people off was made by JPLs management and has nothing to do with the current government shutdown. This is the third round of layoffs at JPL in the last 18 months or so and is largely due to cuts and restructuring to planned missions like the Mars Sample Return.

This is what it’s really all about; everybody has rights, or no one does. There is no in between.

I went to test drive one once and couldn’t get my legs under the steering wheel.

You can say bullshit on the Internet.

It has been said before, but being reduced to a place of normality from a place of privilege is always going to feel like oppression to the privileged.

I think it’s one of those “will of the voters” things they keep going on about. If we don’t let Republicans destroy democracy then we are besmirching the rights of their voters, who just happen to be majority white and clearly gave Republicans a “mandate”. But fuck you if you’re a Democratic voter, It’s not possible for Democrats to have a mandate.

I’m not totally sure though, trying to think like them makes my brain hurt.

This doesn’t make any sense. Web apps are by their nature universal, but even if you needed to target individual OSes for some reason the app engines that one would use like Edge Webview or Electron run on all the OSes mentioned…

The only way this really makes sense is if they are going with something stupid like Lockdown Browser which, while based on chromium as far as I know, has no official Linux support.

Some people need to understand the history of the trail of tears (good and bad) before blindly jumping into the Indian fueled propaganda…

You are absolutely not arguing what you think you are arguing.
