It’s a bit flexible nowadays because a lot of cars will let you leave the a/c on while you walk away with the keys.

Funny fact: google’s newest feature is also its best, but it’s kinda hidden and might not be available everywhere - it’s “web search”, which cuts out all the awful bullshit

afaik castles have a recurring problem where rich people buy them saying “we’re going to restore this and keep it authentic” but then as soon as they find out the price of doing that they backtrack and usually end up not doing anything. But I would prefer doing nothing to doing this.

Can I get some enterprising North Koreans to steal my identity so that I can put their work experience on my CV?

I lived in Japan when streaming was becoming a thing. Everything was region blocked, and DVDs were (and still are) horrendously overpriced for what you get.

I’m sure all of those programs are great, but in the modern world I can’t think of any reason why I wouldn’t ever just use VLC.

We’re leftists and our site culture is pretty aggressive. Liberals are predisposed not to like us because of the first one, and we’re especially prone to arguing with them in the comments of their instances because of the second. This means we’re more well known and more disliked than we would be if we stayed in our corner.

Hopefully they restore the game in all regions where it was disabled. It went from being region free to blocked in 172 countries.

What is this map? “Most recently conquered by”? If so then England should have the Normans (1066), shouldn’t it?

And the winner of the “right for the wrong reasons” award goes to…

wow. Imagine burning out your expensive GPU for a fortnite skin.

This is true of current gen air combat, but I’m speculating about a future where dogfighting once again becomes the only way to achieve air superiority.

Oh I never said it would be humans piloting the sixth gen dogfighters. They’re gonna be drones designed to withstand sustained 20G turns to be able to get their guns on target, commanded from something like an AWACS.

Stealth becomes obsolete

Missile defenses get better

BVR combat becomes basically impossible

Everybody always knows where everybody else is

Sixth generation fighters Retvrn to being purpose-built dogfighters/interceptors

Left that unchecked, I’ve got 16gb ram so I don’t think that was the issue

This is true of the consumer market, but the OP asked about governments, and 90% of government computers in China run Kylin or NeoKylin, with plans to consolidate the two into a single os. This follows the overall trend of China’s tech sector seeking to replace imports (and copied versions of foreign tech) with fully domestic alternatives.

avoid naming a 36 year old man

That’s one of the good parts of the system. The accused deserve privacy.

This punishment is way out of line. Seriously the article doesn’t have anything legitimate to compare it to, so it references people who committed burglary as the most similar examples it can come up with - this guy used a hex editor on his own computer and charged for the service. Fuck this law, fuck Japan’s one party capitalist state, and fuck Nintendo for good measure.

The thing is that Rowling hadn’t really thought it through yet. Having the hero save a slave is pretty clearly heroic and good, and it’s a nice way to wrap up the Dobby story arc, but then the fans were all like “wait WHAT!? there’s slaves under Hogwarts!?” and she was forced to think it through, and it turns out JK’s pretty awful so the result of her thinking it through was to make it worse.
