You’re going to need a team of people, fly them in and out and make sure they get back home alive or it might hurt the president’s polls. It might be cheaper but it’s much riskier. Nobody in the US cares about those 52 other people so that doesn’t really matter to them.

I’m surprised they didn’t use drones.

It is mentioned in the text, but I don’t see anything redacted in the screenshots either.

Edit: It could be in the very first message, it’s not clear if there is text between the first and second screenshot.

A CIA spokesperson asked us to withhold the name of John Ratcliffe’s chief of staff, which Ratcliffe had shared in the Signal chain, because CIA intelligence officers are traditionally not publicly identified. Ratcliffe had testified earlier yesterday that the officer is not undercover and said it was “completely appropriate” to share their name in the Signal conversation. We will continue to withhold the name of the officer. Otherwise, the messages are unredacted.

Imagine if those people looked up to us, we’d have to really question our values.

Canonical ships ZFS like Nvidia ships proprietary drivers, which seems to work (legally and technically) but it means the development of ZoL is a bit cumbersome and can never be integrated in the kernel development like other filesystems.

CDDL is not LGPL and is GPL incompatible

Yeah, I don’t understand who’s still in doubt about Russia’s true motives

Anything else than democracy is shittier

What I mean is the pivot to the east was pretty clear with Obama. With Trump? I think he sees China and Russia more as a role model than an opponent, but who knows what’s going on in his mind.

Maybe you weren’t paying attention when Obama was president? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Asian_foreign_policy_of_the_Barack_Obama_administration

The US has a trade deficit because everyone wants dollars, even though the US keeps on printing them. You basically get free stuff and complain about it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

It’s not that hard. They don’t need aid to continue to fight, but they do need aid to be able to win.

You guys shouldn’t complain, you still have saldering (net metering) ánd get money for the electricity you have left which is still a huge subsidy.

I haven’t really used any other platforms so I can’t really compare but I have encountered enough audio issues too. Especially with new Teams and bluetooth devices.

August 6th 1945: a small forgotten shrine in Hiroshima gets obliterated by the nuclear blast of Little Boy. This was one of the seven shrines holding the fabrics of spacetime together. Slowly spacetime starts to unravel, in the beginning nothing seems unusual but slowly the timeline becomes more and more unlikely. Can our hero stop the unraveling in time?

Imagine we made 13 sextillion of those transistors… That’s more than there are grains of sand on earth

Of course, why would they not?

At the cost of voter anonymity, which shows exactly what is wrong with voting by mail. It’s impossible to prevent fraud while preserving anonymity. Not silly billy at all.

They prevented fraud at the cost of voter anonymity, this is exactly what is wrong with voting by mail. You cannot protect both.

Which is why we don’t do vote by mail ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Why go through all the hoops if they are instead just could refuse patches? Open source doesn’t mean open to contributions, look at SQLite for example.

If they had the idea to release this open source they would have said so in clear words by now. They didn’t so I don’t have much hope, unless maybe if they get enough negative publicity to change their mind.

Why does VC need to ruin everything…
