condoms for Gaza

The correction was that it was $60,000,000 per year, but not Gaza, it was for a global program. Still, it circles around to, why am I paying for this?

Not for condoms, but "Health Service". https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fapnews.com%2Farticle%2Fgaz...

exporting people to foreign prisons without due process.

There are a lot of illegal immigration cases that require no due process and people can be expelled immediately. Quite a number of the people on those flights qualified for expulsion in that way. The questions are, first, can the Alien Enemies Act be applied in our current situation, and second, is a plane that has left US territory subject to US courts. I think the first is a bit of a stretch, but regarding the latter one, I think, is in some cases "no". A good and clearer example of this is, if you're on a train that crosses into Mexico and has the same crew driving the train, are you still subject to US jurisdiction? Definitely not. Anything would have to be co-ordinated with Mexican officials and performed by Mexican officials. I don't know how this would apply to aircraft, though. Much of the time of the flights were over Mexico and Mexican waters.

Even if the plane was in Mexico, it is still US flagged carrier. It has to abide by US law. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.runsensible.com%2Fbl.... Additionally, some of the people on the plane already had pending court hearing scheduled and were still deported. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fabcnews.go.com%2FPolitic... https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pbs.org%2Fnewshour%2Fp...

Also, were people from Venezuela sent to El Salvador?

I would say it dead to personal to medium-small size businesses. I have been running ESXI as a home lab for years. With their recent nInn-you just recently, I am going to need to move to Proxmox or something else. Yes, they did not make money off me, but I would have recommend it customers, but not now.

Technically, there is only one GPS, United States GPS (Global Positioning System).

However, there is more than one GNSS (global navigation satellite system). Several other countries have GNSS system, include Russia: GLONASS (Russian: Global Navigation Satellite System), China: BeiDou (Northern Dipper Star Navigation System), or European Union: Galileo. Additionally, there are augmentation systems that use GPS (or other GNSS) to increase accuracy in a given area. For example, US: WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System), Japan: QZSS (Quasi-Zenith Satellite System), IRNSS (Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System). There are other regional, country and even commercial augmentation systems. Furthermore: Most GPS receivers are really GNSS receivers and can receive signal from one or more systems simultaneously. Random fact: More advanced receivers can be configured for select GNSS, augmentations system, or even miliary (or authorized user) bands for increase accuracy. Another random fact: Some receivers don’t work over a given speed to prevent their use in miliary applications.

Raspberry Pi has a slightly higher production that than. They state a production of 0.5 million Pi per month. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.raspberrypi.com%2Fne... When you order $5 million+ per month in processors, you are ordering more than a month in advance. At that scale, they are ordering several million at a time and staggering the delivery.

Yes, it is less than the big boys, but it's not small by most measures. I suspect it has to do with their use of a older 40mn processor (they even state the 28mn are "easier" to obtain, but they are still supply constrained. My understanding it that its even a custom chip by Broadcom for Raspberry. Too bad that they can't use some of Nvidia's excess capacity on the smaller process node. But, it appears than Broadcom only uses down to 28nm.
