Comment What Impact? (Score 2) 138
TFA doesn't actually list what the impact is. It just says contrails are bad, but never actually explains why they are bad. Does anyone got a ref or cite?

watching the analysis video (https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fyoutu.be%2FIRRX9UoWkQY%3Ft%3D177), the plane entered a spin as the pilot jumped out, preventing either pilot from entering the plane. The spin probably interfered with the deployment of the parachute.
He's got a point, but the article over simplifies the issue.
After 6 months of casually (~2 hours a day) grinding out on Warzone, I have amassed a k/d ratio of 0.8. Dedicated streamers have a 2.5 - 3.0 k/d, and I think the top folks in Warzone have a 6.0+. A vast majority of players (~25M) are in the
What does happen is that players are sorted into three groups: sub
I agree that there should be some SBMM in there, but how heavy is it weighted, compared to ping times / lag, it the question. Also with 60M+ players, they should find it easy to build lobbies around just people with a
As I recall, Salesforce has a pretty restrictive license on who can use their products. Namely, companies that sell or manufacture firearms or their accessories. I wonder how long it'll be until they leverage that for Slack as well.
It's interesting how the only example of Meritocracy given is college-level education, as if that's the only merit worth having. What about people that learn skills outside of a college education? A meritocracy of society as a whole should be nothing but positive. Judges should be selected from the best lawyers, government treasurers should be selected from the best accountants, etc...
The main issue the author seems to have is how we define 'best' and 'merit', which she uses to tear down the idea, decrying it as not inclusive enough. Let include all aspects of society. Not every individual needs a college education, but everyone should be educated.
But they didn't, did they? That pretty much confirms their risk/reward analysis was accurate.
I guess you just don't like people having fun.
On the 405 at Rush Hour, sure. On interstates that are basically empty with no traffic to due various (illegal and Non-Constitutional) stay-at-home orders, I don't see what the big deal is.
Yeah, it's a guilty pleasure.

"As such, starting today, we are officially changing our name back to XBMC.
But we're not stopping there. We've had a good long run being a multi-platform system, but at the end of the day covering six or more platforms has become far too much of a stress. Android support alone taxes our resources in a way no volunteer development team can ever reasonably be expected to handle. And all the other platforms just makes this worse. So, in an executive decision that we believe the entire community will support, we at Team XBMC have decided to fully embrace our roots.
Starting today, we would like to announce that we are exclusively supporting only the Xbox One"
Hey, i resemble that statement.
My first computer was a Commodore VIC-20, as a 13th b-day gift. With a tape drive. And 2.5 Kb RAM. I learned a lot about computers and programming in general from that.
A year later I worked all summer and bought my own C-64. 4 years later I had an Amiga 1000.
>Do you believe rehabilitation is impossible or do you want revenge?
I don't believe that someone who commits mass murder can be rehabilitated, no. It isn't about revenge; it's about public safety.
Someone once pointed out that hoping a rapist gets raped in prison isn't a victory for his victim(s), because it somehow gives him what he had coming to him, but it's actually a victory for rape and violence. I wish I could remember who said that, because they are right. The score doesn't go Rapist: 1 World: 1. It goes Rape: 2.
What this man did is unspeakable, and he absolutely deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison. If he needs to be kept away from other prisoners as a safety issue, there are ways to do that without keeping him in solitary confinement, which has been shown conclusively to be profoundly cruel and harmful.
Putting him in solitary confinement, as a punitive measure, is not a victory for the good people in the world. It's a victory for inhumane treatment of human beings. This ruling is, in my opinion, very good and very strong for human rights, *precisely* because it was brought by such a despicable and horrible person. It affirms that all of us have basic human rights, even the absolute worst of us on this planet.
Did radio control airplanes suddenly be renamed 'Drones' ?
To me, a drone indicates some kind of AI or autopilot capability. Is that no longer an accurate definition ?
This is precisely why I lost all interest in Oculus the instant I heard that it had been acquired by Facebook.
