With out Bezo’s name recognition very, very few would have heard about Slate and their little pickup/SUV. That’s a level of advertisement that money simply can’t buy as a startup. We certainly wouldn’t be talking about them without Bezos’ name being attached to them. And they certainly wouldn’t have access to the investors and financial doors his name can easily open.
I have. Then I realize Slate doesn’t get a chance to change vehicular design without him.
What congress can do is refuse to pay for the war/police action. They still need to write the checks. Wars don’t last long with out money.
Perhaps. Until there is a real crisis that does require immediate action. There is no good answer here. Have a window of discretion, or be unable to trigger action and get innocent people killed due to inaction.
Which do you prefer?
The POTUS has a window of discretion where he can act unilaterally without congressional approval. And they ALL have done so over many terms.
The hard stop is when congress needs to appropriate funds to pay for the war/police action.
The last 4 years of my working life, I taught some math in my small rural local school. I introduced a tradition of calculating Pi from scratch by various “silly” means. All shamelessly stolen from Matt Parker of Standup Maths fame on Youtube. The students, (4th through 8th grade), were always highly entertained and may have accidentally learned some math…
When you least expect it, Pi is there.
Not according to her. And I ain’t about to argue the point with her…
As a retired mechanical engineer, the joke is that we don’t really remember the value of Pi, but we think it’s somewhere around 3. But maybe we should use 4 just to be safe.
In any case, I have to remember 3.14 because one of my Daughters was born on Pi Day. Which, according her, is the second most important day of the year, just right behind Christmas Day, when she was growing up. So when she got into high school that meant that we had to bring enough pie to be served in each of her math classes on that day. (Oddly enough she prefers cheese cake over pie on her Birthday).
Now I’m not saying being born on Pi Day influenced her life any, but she has a PhD in Mech Engineering.
No US president is a peace dove. Between supporting proxie wars to police actions to declared war, they all end up getting people killed by bombs.
I can’t ever remember a Gnome 3 install that ran slow for me. But I can always feel a heaviness to Gnome3 that bothers me. It’s like an unseen presence that feels like something is wrong.
Yeah, KDE was rough in the early days thanks to QT. But things slowly worked themselves out. While I don’t change much with KDE, I do change a few minor things, mostly I make sure the capslock is off and single click to open is on and I got to have that 3D box to switch my desktops. But I do like the power of easy choice KDE offers.
Still I do get nostalgic for the old Gnome2 days. So I have Cinnamon DE installed on a low powered mini desktop. And it runs amazingly well.
Of course. We are nothing, if not stoically nice when we exile someone.
Ain’t nobody ever eating “casserole” anywhere in Minnesota. We eat hot dish here. If you do make a “casserole” in Minnesota, a circle of Lut’ern church ladies will burn your Minnesotan card and make you move to Wisconsin.
It’s a lifestyle thing and it mostly harmless. Best not to question it.
Transparency: I have owned and still do own a Jeep. I like my 2015 Patriot.
I never understood it either. I was a user of Gnome until Gnome 3 showed up and I decided to nope out of there. It was a simple process of trying few different DE’s and I have settled on KDE and Cinnamon for when I want that old timey Gnome feeling.
It wasn’t hard to switch at all.
The only ads I see are on a local sports podcast. The advertisers are all local businesses. From restaurants to local credit unions. And those I’m fine with.
We do not eat “tater casserole.”
We eat tater tot hotdish.
FDM printing ABS/ASA is far easier and safer than resin printing since most CoreXY printers are enclosed these days. A simple fan and ether venting to the outside world or through activated charcoal air filters is a relatively simple procedure. Printers with all of that filtration are easily purchased these days. Even vapor smoothing can be done outdoors if it’s warm enough.
They understand just how hard it would be to comply. And that’s the point. Make it hard enough to meet the requirements to not make worth a business’ while to comply. And the politicians can say “We didn’t ban PornHub. They blocked you from access.”
It’s a common tool both the left and right use to control behaviors. Governments around the world do this all the time.
They stated 250C was for annealing to final product. That’s a temperature any bog standard toaster oven or kitchen oven can do. Sadly, they said nothing I saw about actual extrusion temps.
