My voting disctrict in Omaha is megablue so it’ll be a tough fight for them to get it back.

Underlegislation leads to a bloated, extortionate upper crust that weilds disproportionate power over those who rely on said financial system. There is a balance, and the problem you outline is the lesser of the two extremes.

Sci Fi is a flavor of fantasy that favors grounded explainations over magic, yet can’t escape it entirely. In order for something to be sci fi, it must have something in it that can be percieved as “magical,” even in the “sufficiently advanced technology” sense of the word. Jump/warp tech, laser weapons, space warfare in general, most life support concepts, AGI… All magic as far as we know now. Any sci fi without the roots of fantasy is really just modern fiction.

This baby c-oww…

Protection from grit. And because polymers that can resist balistic shock and heat had only very recently been invented by then, and it was “cool” to find a way to make it useful.

No, I could se this… Fill up a full page and then it jumps to the next, blank page. If she can’t see that the first page exists, she may have thought she just erased all her work by typing one too many keys.

Source: I work in IT and pretty sure I’ve seen exactly this. Lot’s of flavors to the human experience, lemetellyou.

Not to mention that if he is off of any 1 ballot and loses, he has ammunition for another Jan6. If he has a “fair shot” and loses, there is less plausibility and (hopefully) fewer followers in the repeat.

Which this probably is if they want to pack as much data as possible in one unit.

Question: We’ve seen sand-filled missiles due to corruption and cronyism, and they were actually transfered to the front line expecting to be live munitions. How many Russian ICBMs do you think are truly functional between the “new” ones and the 70yo cold war hulks?

To be clear, I don’t revel in the idea of a war between the Ruskies and NATO, but Putin is certain to be wondering this, too. How effective are his strategic assets, truly? I’m sure the CIA has figured that out and is guiding US response on that intel. They know exactly how far an insecure dictator can be pushed.

Hey OP, that site has enough trackers on it to give me cancer. Can you link an alt from a more consumer friendly source?

Clippy never had a voice and tbh the one that comes to mind for him is not very easy on the ears. Like downpitched spongebob.

Some retired old fart who can’t be bothered to learn fancy-schmancy Web 2.0. Rock on like it’s '93

Hooo boy. Watch a speedrunner video. Every game is like that, especially older ones. There are people who exist to completely turn them inside and out to make their runs just a fraction quicker. Zelda N64 games are a good example. Halo CE has some good moments too

Ahoy should host

Yet language and abstraction are the core of intelligence. You cannot have intelligence without 2 way communication, and if anything, your brain contains exactly that dictionary you describe. Ask any verbal autistic person, and 90% of their conversations are scripted to a fault. However, there’s another component to intelligence that the Turing Test just scrapes against. I’m not philosophical enough to identify it, but it seems like the turing test is looking for lightning by listening for rumbling that might mean thunder.

You’re absolutely correct, and we should fight to ensure that the law is presented equally to all charges. That doesn’t refute my point. This is the core foundation of British Common Law, that only a sure and clear conviction may be justly carried out. Any doubt leaves injustice as the outcome as sure as you claim it to be so for the poor. If we rewrite the rules or even disregard existing precident on the grounds that “well they wouldn’t be just if it was us at the noose,” then we are pushing for the type of system you (rightfully) claim to be unequally unjust.

I can tell you’re being facetious, but you’re 100% right. You do, indeed, need to give every benefit of the doubt in our legal process. That is what is meant by “innocent until proven guilty.” They must make it so there is no foothold for appeal. No “well you didn’t tell me…” or “you should have had a firm definition for…” No, if the legal system wants to take someone down, REALLY take them down, they must do it with every ounce of assurance and with no room for doubt that this person explicitly broke a law, in full knowledge and with warning, that they can be convicted to the full extent of said law.

That’s okay. I hear they do punch cards now. Only a matter of time.
