    More specifically, this looks like an answer to the Army's Office 365 licensing woes, which initially did not include licenses for these 250,000 junior soldiers to cut costs: https…

    Halon being tagged out wouldn't have influenced the outcome here. Lower V is not Halon protected. MMR1 below it is, but not V. The next closest Halon compartment would have been FW…

    This happened to me too. I rented a Hertz vehicle while on a trip to San Diego in 2005. I had to exchange the car at their airport location due to a flat tire. Two days later while…

    > As for if they will get paid afterward, well legally the government cannot promise that. Legally it's possible that the new budget may even disband something like the TSA and all…

    AWS' Customer Agreement[1] essentially has the same language. I wouldn't be surprised to see similar language from other cloud providers as well. Seems rather prudent on their part…

    While carriers are certainly used in this role, I've taken part in two such missions while deployed with the USS Ronald Reagan, there are ships that are more capable in handling hu…

    Except in this case, I'd argue it's fairly obvious. One tends to make a conscious decision to change their DNS server from that provided by their ISP to a public DNS service such a…

    Google, Amazon, Facebook and eBay all use OV certs, but you're probably right in that they don't see value in EV.

    Chaplains can and do act as marriage officiants, but of course, that still doesn't solve the issue of physical separation here.

    As a naval aviator myself, no I don't think this is a much of a problem as you're trying to make it out to be.

    There are several U.S. military aircraft that can operate from rudimentary airstrips, such as the A-10. While it's true most U.S. fighters aren't designed with engine protection sy…

    It probably depends on the size of the school or school district. I went to large schools for both MS and HS, and all of our PE teachers only taught PE throughout the day, as it wa…

    Don't know the specifics of the GP's story, but nowadays, it's mostly aluminum sheeting boards that lock together which are painted with a non-slip paint. It's actually quite impre…

    Not that it matters, but I wonder how many people tried the trial and forgot to cancel their subscription. I had went running back to Spotify before my trial period had ended, but …

    Yes, the permanent retention policy came well after the days of the Continental Navy. Those requirements are currently set out in SECNAV M-5210.1. Nowadays, they're maintained by N…

    I know the U.S. Navy permanently retains the deck logs of its commissioned ships. The ONRL has some logs dating back to 1776.

    Looks like it has since been fixed. Edit: ...or, at least, it works for me logged in and logged out. Weird.

    It seems like your real issue isn't with "American democracy", but democracy in general. It doesn't appear you have much faith in the Chinese people exercising power directly or th…

    They don't have freezers in their stores, so trucks must be able to travel to the store within a day.

    All of those locations have something in common, they're all within a one day driving distance of one of the two In-N-Out distribution centers.

    The Bogd Khan Uul National Park in Mongolia was established in 1778, nearly 100 years before Yellowstone (1872). The fourth and fifth oldest are Banff National Park (1885) and Yoho…
