The tragedy of 9/11 was cited as a failure of the intelligence community as a whole, primary the TLAs, to work together. They know they are responsible, and they know they have to …

I wasn't impressed. I do use them to vacuum and make frozen pizzas though.

It's a reasonable belief and fear that person will carry out the act. You are probably misinterpreting the reasonable part, especially when people mask their reaction to try to get…

Governments always have their own assault rifles and, usually, access to nukes or nuclear defense by proxy. By extension, they will have their own AI and we can only try to achieve…

It's like the Matrix. The Machines won. The kids would rather be dead than singled out, and the adults have convinced themselves iPhone is the end all, be all even in this comments…

Everyone is self-censoring these days, and you really need to operate within a limited persona if you have an online presence. If you aren't political, you don't really need to sha…

So, forests won't be worked on to prove a point or what? The idea is decades old from at least when railroad companies were dealing with Canadian forests, so it seems like apathy o…

EMDR therapy may help with something like that.

You can do the soleus pushup all day while sitting. Supposedly, it can fix your metabolism. Also, Supernatural or boxing like in Thrill of the Fight on a cheaper standalone VR head…

Your simplistic theory for silencing certain scientists falls apart when you need to examine Africa or other countries that had the virus but not the excess death you would expect.…

Hillary Clinton did not take the loss well despite the appearance, and she still uses the word stolen. Stacey Abrams seems to have a similar story. Trump sounds like a broken recor…

It's the US government so it's safer to assume that only a $25 transaction went through. I am surprised the person didn't rethink things after the experiment went badly with $10K i…

I wasn't directly challenging your answer but the picture it painted. However, if scientists had to formally ask if SARS as a disease was eradicated or eliminated from the world, t…

This line is expected to become endemic. China may have to stomach the current variants. It's not that relevant, but the coronavirus family is always going to reappear as it stands…

In Golang, I've seen time.Sleep(2 * time.Second). That's pretty explicit, so, it seems someone carried the whole concept forward.

There are units that still require cooling. https://www.wired.com/story/the-situation-at-chernobyl-is-de... Wired also had an old article about the long-term situation with radioac…

With the abysmal reputation of DMVs, even if that were the primary business of government, people would still have a case for reforming government from the ground up.

White is a skin tone, but it also seems to be a catch-all for anyone that can be assigned historical guilt for benefitting in some way from imperialism. From there, the possibiliti…

I wasn't trying to explain the actual political situation. I don't know what "deal" they took exactly. It's just really easy for any side, including the actual Russian individual t…

It would have to be very subtle trolling since mentioning a certain pipe in Canada would definitely have rustled some jimmies.

By that logic, Russia would be the one receiving nominal Western support since it carries out ethnic cleansings (with relative impunity) against Georgians and possibly now Ukrainia…

In my estimation, most of the activity done with people's inventory on Steam, especially skins in major games, involve one illicit scheme or another. I guess you can't or shouldn't…

Russian troops could simply be operating under the premise that none of their actions would be necessary if the West hadn't meddled and created the Ukrainian crisis in the first pl…

I knew exactly what "jargon" the IT worker was going to use, and I've never worked in an office like that. Of course, I assumed he was being pedantic at first. If a lawyer only nee…
