MS Windows 95b was ok for the time.

There's the average rise, and then there's the rise at any one location. The aren't the same. I've heard (one source) that the ocean level near Greenland is actually lower. This was attributed to the loss of ice leading to less gravitational attraction. And the straits of Magellan have fierce tides, because of differing ocean heights.

That would require him considering women as human beings rather than objects to fuck. He isn't capable of that.

Sometimes that choice is the right one. Not all parents are good parents. Some are downright toxic.

The trouble with benchmarks is that they are often gamed. So while this is interesting, one should remain a bit reserved, awaiting assessments more reflecting the way people use it.

This "new" site is part of a larger effort by that slob to kneecap or compromise US government Web sites, and steal your personal data.

I first read about the effort here: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthedreydossier.substac...

Yesterday, she took a look under the hood of America.gov, and yes, it's as bad as everything else the DOGE vandals have been doing: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthedreydossier.substac...

Up until this point, government Web sites were designed, built, and maintained by the agencies responsible for that government service. For example, if you wanted to apply for or renew your passport, you would go to state.gov, which is run by the US Department of State, which is responsible for processing applications for and issuing passports. No other department has lawful jurisdiction over passports.

From the point of view of the law, that's still true. But the slob, without anyone's permission, kluged together passports.gov. This site was built and is run by the White House's "National Design Studio," completely outside the law and without any independent oversight. The State Department was not consulted and has nothing to do with it. Further, the site is filled with third-party trackers, analytics, and some custom code that copies every page you view, including form contents, to an unknown third party.

Oh, and the guy leading the National Design Studio and in charge of building these fake sites? He's Joe Gebbia -- cofounder of Airbnb. Read both articles for more details.

In short, you should treat America.gov as a malware site and stay well away from it. Under no circumstances should you feed it any of your personal information.

A very slight rounding is useful, as it makes the distinction between one tab and another easier to spot. Currently on my Firefox it's done by highlighting the active tab and putting a small icon at the start of the tab...which also wastes space, but differentiates tabs. (OTOH, the tab labels are already slightly rounded, but the "not currently selected tabs" are so greyed out that the tab margins are invisible. Not ideal. And if they do the same thing with the rounded tabs, there will be absolutely no advantage.)

Actually, they were needed around 1980. But in the last few decades they seem to concentrate on making things worse.

Maybe that's actually a measure of how bad the inflation is.

Do you actually believe they aren't retaining the data? Why?

I think those calculations are wrong, because they seem to assume that the heat is uniformly distributed, and that clearly isn't correct.

It's still pretty appalling, but I don't believe those numbers. (Coming up with more believable numbers, though, is beyond me. I couldn't even believe a number based on a gradient, and that's impossible anyway because there aren't enough measurements at the bottom.)

With apples, IIUC, you need to worry about the coddling moth. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpnwhandbooks.org%2Finsec...
Where I used to live it was illegal to grow apples without spraying them with vile insecticides because of that.

While you're technically right about the banana not being a tree, it's commonly called a "banana tree". This is an English vs. technicalese distinction. Just like a walnut isn't a nut, but rather a drupe...in technicalese.

These homeless shoppers are likely to get poached sooner rather than later. With the deep knowledge they build up of any given Walmart store's layout, they'd make good candidates to get hired into the store's online grocery pickup (OGP) department.

I don't know if HEB includes a tip, but I know that Walmart doesn't do tips. When I worked in the front end of a Walmart Supercenter six years ago, associates were trained to refuse tips, and if someone insists, to ring it up as a donation to whatever charity Walmart is collecting for at the time. Often that ends up being the nearest Children's Miracle Network hospital.
