At the same time I'm seeing a bunch of ads for "hardware is getting too expensive, use Akamai cloud for your gaming etc instead, now with AI blah blah!"
Bitch, you're the reason hardware is so expensive!
Depends a lot on where you go and specific weather patterns. Climate change is also a significant factor.
It used to get well into the double-digits below zero (°c) here in winter. Now we tend to have around just below 0°c to double low double digits above...
There's not a lot to prevent an invasion, but taking a place and keeping it under occupation are two different things. The USA is good at storming the castle walls but not very good at anything afterwards
And why would Clinton need to speak before CONGRESS? He's not a sitting president, in any sort of government position, or AFAIK involved in anything really close to government at all.
If he's a suspect, have the fucking police interview him.
And this is also why we NEED mainstream Linux mobile (phone) devices. Google is actively locking down their ecosystem. Both Apple and Google see customers as walking wallets
One thing I've been impressed with China for is moving towards greener technologies. They're a leader in solar, their EV's are apparently very good (not that I can get one here to verify that), and they're pretty dogged in their pursuit of nuclear energy.
Meanwhile USA is apparently still in "let's overturn regimes and take over other countries for the oil companies" mode
A lot of Catholics seem to consider themselves the "uber-Christians", with the whole Pope thing being their religious king, such as it were.
And the ones like that are absolutely terrible at actually following the lessons of their religion too. Now they've got a new "king" so I guess the Pope doesn't matter as much
They have been, they will be too, but I'll also say it's gotten a lot more blatant over time. Jan6 should have been the moment where people really woke up
It'll be even more blatant as the next election comes closer, assuming they don't pull the "martial law no election" shit which seems to be the current aim.
Oh yes, totally their responsibility and not the fault of the Republicans in power now, who were the same ones that rejected the other impeachment votes. But yeah, must be on Biden...
If a mob boss murders a drug dealer in order to help expand their "territory": they're still both evil criminals and the mob boss should still be charged
Yeah I've had certbot mess up a few times, though more often it was the scripts that actually shuttle the updated certs to their proper locations and restart services after updating
If I had a restaurant I'd be offering these guys a free coffee and dessert along with a "no ICE" sign.
