But the super secret code names apple has been stowing away, will bring them glory! Glory and Fame! All shall bow to the might of snapchat and their secret code names for things that no one wants!

Take advantage of the law by owning a bus conversion. Our bus weighs ten tons empty.

Alas, California is requiring us to smog the fucking things now, we have to do the same tests as commercial trucks, not just as often. Our rig passes easily, but it costs money and requires a trip halfway across a large county. In fact, since we hardly ever go anywhere, it significantly increases our emissions...

The tests I care about other than reliability and straight streaming read or write speed are random read/write which some cards do much better than others — I expected this for writes, but not for reads! — and how long a device can sit around unused and retain data.

TFA notes that there are application performance class ratings, but they are very particular and what I really want to know is what happens with lots of small files.

The purpose of the theater is participation in group reactions. If that's not interesting to you, by all means stay home. I enjoy it, but it's not worth the down sides of doing that with modern moviegoers, so I stay home and watch a big TV at home and eat popcorn with real butter, and pause when I want to take a piss. I have 4k and DTS at home, thanks.

Screen size: True, although these days an 80" screen that you can reasonably sit close enough to in order to have a similar experience is not very expensive.
Sound: You mean I don't have to get my fucking head blown off by overdriven audio? OK.
Visual quality: The 80" 4k TV has just as many dots as the theater does, and a better contrast ratio.

Get some friends together to make the purchase and watch movies together, it will get to be cheaper than going to the theater real quick. You can buy 4k Blu-Rays instead of tickets.

Denialism is really boring trolling. You are a penis bird's clown shoes.

"People using normal comes-and-goes of the weather to frighten others into toeing their line are despicable."

People ignoring science, including what it says about localized weather events including some occasional cooking, are dumb as shit. And when they claim other people are using scare tactics because they lack the mental fortitude to handle bad news and they want them to stop so they can feel secure amidst chaos, it's pathetic.

"Somehow a 7 liter diesel dually truck is fine to daily drive, but a 50mpg 2.0 turbodiesel in a small passenger car is so restricted as to ban the category entirely."

The one and only fun 50 MPG diesel car ever sold in the US was the original Golf TDI with what, a 1.9? Then the Germans all willfully cheated the emissions tests for diesels and they all had to cancel those models, because no one was buying them, and they no longer got that mileage either. Germany, Germany's automakers, and Bosch did that. Blame the right criminals, please.

Republicans are mass shooters.

Democrats are the Uvalde police.

If they cut Medicaid then here in California where we currently aid the undocumented with our program called Medi-cal (which is really just Medicaid plus some other programs), we will probably not be able to afford to do that. We will need to spend what money we have for the purpose of aiding citizens who have been cut off because this administration wants them dead.

And that has what to do with torture exactly?

And they will expand more.

The thirteenth amendment still permits slavery as a punishment for commission of a crime. And it doesn't specify which crimes, so they could be any at all.

Who is going to pick crops after we traffic all the people doing it now? Slaves.

I don't have the time to go to another county far away from me for that, nor the lawyer money. Welcome to America.

"From 2021 until 2024, the co-conspirators allegedly impersonated more than 80 U.S. individuals"

It's called identity theft. Are you new?

I've had my identity stolen, the problem is that courts don't punish corruption. In fact, they enable it.

Someone bought a car using my identity. Their proof of identity was my social written on a check cashing card. They had my same name, all three names. But the DOB didn't match so the person who sold them the car was in on the scam. Then a court (in Nevada City, CA) awarded a judgement against me based on my social being written in pen on a check cashing card. This does not meet any reasonable standard for SSN verification, but they got the judgement anyway.

That courthouse should be sold and the funds distributed between the court's victims.

The identities of people who mod posts should be public. That's the single most broken by design thing about the Slashdot moderation system.

That wouldn't make sense if everyone had modpoints and comment scores could be higher, but they don't and they can't.

This isn't a community, and this is a big part of why.
