He has slightly better weapons and armor but if you do manage to take him down he does have more loot as well.

Unfortunately the law would've never applied to fox news, as it was broadcast only and cable was exempt. But even so nowadays so much of the information sphere is online, through Facebook, Twitter and the thousand different right wing blog news sites that you aren't really going to be able to stop anything. The American system very dependent on the two parties having a bipartisan consensus. But after a few decades of the right wing media sphere whipping the base into frenzy after frenzy the 'true believers' are the ones in government now and the idea of compromise is done for.

So I took some time to look around and as far as my perspective as a non dev regular user. While this does seem like a useful tool that could be useful for someone who interacts with the command line on a infrequent basis, the drawbacks on it seem pretty big.

  1. Everywhere on their website seems clear that they don't store your data, but I have trouble believing that? Why on earth they would need for you to create a account that you must log in to use the terminal if they don't have a need to monitor your data?
  2. While they claim that they are intending to monetize this by charging enterprise users and letting small teams use it for free, they limit free requests to 20 per dday which seems less than useless.
  3. Maybe this is just some confusion since I don't have any experience as an enterprise but it seems like it would be an unacceptable security risk having a program that it telling you that it sends telemetry back home that users are interacting with using sudo and elevated privileges. Especially when it is a closed box.

Ignoring all the reasons to be cautious and skeptical about AI in general I struggle to see the use case for this particular tool.

You haven't lost your sense of smell have you?

I don't know man, being poor doesn't seem great either.

So obviously this all isn't very ideal but they actually made at least two mistakes here. That pipe is not rated for being outside and also Romex isn't allowed to be used in wet areas such as underground. Only something like UF cable would be allowed to be ran buried like this.

There's two things that you can do here, the right way and easy way. The right way would be to rip the whole wire out and run it properly. The easier way would be to kill the outlet at the breaker, disconnect the wire from the outlet and to carefully remove the pipe and replace with a PVC pipe that won't rust. Get one from the electrical aisle because those won't degrade in the sun.

Well climate change was always going to be a crisis that was ignored until it started hitting people's pocketbooks.

So if we're pretending that the cop could be taken at his word and also pretending that while behind a barrier that the cop would be beyond a reasonable doubt threatened by that, that's still the crime of brandishing a weapon, which isn't punishable by death in any court. Cops manage to not kill people all the time, it's not unreasonable to hold them accountable to the already low standards we hold cops to in the US.

Most people don't bend over backwards when the government kills a guy for the crime of, having a weapon that couldn't possibly harm the officer. Unless we're going to be good with cops shooting everyone with a NRA sticker on their car we probably shouldn't be good with it here.

That's a classic, and I won't hear one word against it.

You know what? Maybe I should stop complaining about Comcast, it could always be worse.

Right? Like, I mean there's probably some room for a discussion on Russian and China's actions in geopolitics and to what extent that is a form of imperialism but to straight declare that no other countries are seems like mind rot to the highest degree. Like we're just going to pretend that America doesn't exist at all I suppose? Or that France and Britain don't still have extensive colonial properties and interests? It's a hell of a take.
