What did Orwell say his novel was about?

US taking over Gaza would be at the bottom of my list of options concerning Gaza. Almost anything else would be a better idea.

I have to agree. Switching to USB-C is a big step, but I doubt Apple will become more interoperable unless they are forced to.

Attack on its sovereignty? More like an attack on the comfort level of its rulers.

"This is especially a problem in Star Trek"

It gets really bad in ST Discovery, especially in the last season. Any time the ship gets into trouble, a cascade of sparks starts falling down. It looks like a waterfall made of sparks. The bridge basically looks like a KISS concert.

probably because of lack of currency for imports

That makes sense. Russia is saving its money to pay smugglers to smuggle in weapons components.

Not mentioned in the article, but mentioned elsewhere - trains. Russia relies heavily on trains to move things. One part of train maintenance is the replacement of bearings. Russia can't manufacture bearings for its trains and it can't import them either because of sanctions. Russia has fewer and fewer operational trains and train cars. One very important thing that the trains haul is grain. There are reports that Russia could face starvation by the end of the year if it doesn't get its trains repaired because they will be unable to haul food to the cities. Russia doesn't have enough trucks and roads to replace the trains.

You can't judge.

Eh, banks give out loans for people to start restaurants all the time

I did some deeper looking in Art Station. The artist's name is Jun Yun.

People heard about the original, now discredited study, which came out around the time autism diagnosises were increasing. People then either didn't hear or chose not to believe that the OG study was discredited.

I believe food stamps are a subset of the US Department of Agriculture spending.

They are auditing OPM. Step #1 of the IT portion of an audit is to copy the existing data so that it can be examined without any risk of altering the original data.

Seems to me like Kamala's team kept Kamala off Joe Rogon's show, not Elon.

I paid full price for this game and I've found it to be quite enjoyable.

I'm sure this will work out well.

Didn't Kamala's team also want to edit the interview? Whereas Rogan does a long form, stream of conciousness type of inteview, so he told the Harris team 'No' to editing.

Deleted my FB account just now.

I’d had the thing since 2003

But... Facebook was created in 2004?

Google "russian trains" and "ball bearings". If the sanctions don't end soon for Russia, their economy absolutely will break down.

Russia moves the vast majority of its good by rail, but the trains are breaking down because the ball bearings are wearing out and Russia can't produce new ball bearings. I'm busy at work, so I can't look for the article now, but if things keep going the way they are now, Russia won't be able to transport its food harvests to its people in 1 to 2 years. There will be starvation in Russia if they don't get their trains fixed. #1) Russia doesn't have enough trucks to transport all the food it needs. #2) If Russia did have enough trucks, it still doesn't have enough roads nor good enough roads to handle all of the trucks it would need to transport all of the food it needs.

And honestly, I hope they do starve.

Ok... well now you have. Everyone should be treated equally under the law. No one should be discriminated against.
