Illegal possession of a stolen gun, likely intended to use that gun for at best extortion at worst murder. Yea I’ll say it, that 24 year old was up to no good, and made the choice to drive dangerously and kill himself.

I’m happy his actions result in him no longer being able to cause pain and suffering to others. Instead of him harming others karma caught up with the punk.

Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

And nothing of any value was lost.

While 104 is contact an MD range.

Fevers have to get to 108F to cause brain damage. 106F is definitely in the seek treatment range!

But normal fevers between 100° and 104° F (37.8° - 40° C) are good for sick children.

If the data is extremely important make a back up first.

Most things decrease in price as production scales up.

Is called Economies of scale.

There’s also a lot hype around process improvements such as Six Sigma. Some of this has come out of factories and into IT and software dev such as kanban boards and agile.

Strangely most think that software development does not have economies of scale.

It won’t matter that much UNLESS a specific setting you might want is disabled such as virtualization.

Consider checking now if virtualization is enabled or disabled. If your BIOS settings are fairly permissive it isn’t that big of a deal. But if they are restrictive it can make it a pain in the ass to work around.

Wouldn’t be the first time and prolly won’t be the last time.

Jamestown.

Jamestowne is home to the ruins of the first permanent English settlement in North America.

104 settlers but only 38 survived

Despite writing describing cannibalism:

“Haveinge fedd upon our horses and other beastes as longe as they Lasted, we weare gladd to make shifte with vermin as doggs Catts, Ratts and myce…as to eate Bootes shoes or any other leather,” he wrote. “And now famin beginneinge to Looke gastely and pale in every face, thatt notheinge was Spared to mainteyne Lyfe and to doe those things which seame incredible, as to digge upp deade corpes outt of graves and to eate them. And some have Licked upp the Bloode which hathe fallen from their weake fellowes.”

Direct evidence of cannibalism at Jamestown, the oldest permanent English colony in the Americas was elusive until recently finding “bones in a trash pit, all cut and chopped up, it’s clear that this body was dismembered for consumption.”

I mean, are you incapable of having any sympathy for individuals that walked into what seemed to be peaceful but turned into a warzone?

Sure, the Israel Palestine conflict has been going on since 1948 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli–Palestinian_conflict

But if your work told you to go on a quick in and out trip to Jamaica would you know there’s an older persistent conflict that could cause you harm? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamaican_political_conflict

Shit Sudan and Myanmar both have higher body counts so far. You check with the state department and lists of all armed conflicts before all your trips?

Kogan provides a year warranty tho… so it’s not exactly a grey import (like fly by night eBay seller)

I think you might have to cover shipping for repairs tho if you don’t have their extended warranty.

I think they have to provide that warranty by law tho

Why?

We’ve pretty much been at war nonstop since WWII.

They just called it the cold war.

Cooler heads have prevailed, for the most part, for a long time. The shock and awe overwhelming force doctrine has worked when we needed it. There’s questions on if it will work on a near peer in a new battle space featuring Internet, space, drones, and unconventional warfare.

It’s likely a near peer would target our water and power infrastructure with hacks. It’s possible many civilians could die without even using nuclear weapons from that. It’s possible the Internet would never be the same afterwards.

But so far cooler heads have prevailed. The military industrial complex might be great at extracting tax dollars but the idea is that all that spending will work to prevent WWIII by being prepared to fight it.

We might have to fight that war one day. Why worry? We spend plenty of money to be prepared to do so.

Thank you for all the hard work! I’d be down for a 20 dollar yearly subscription if the money split with the users default instance so the server got money for bandwidth and hosting! 10 for you 10 for the server. Can you pay it forward so this magical experience can continue?

I’d pay 20 a year if it were split 50/50 with the instance I select as my default… I mean the instances need to pay for bandwidth and hosting somehow. I get it, devs need to eat too, but pay it forward.
