Please stop putting linux on your laptops.
I do not want mine to die because of your bad taste in distros.

I don't understand why English needs both flammable and inflammable.
Because it does not mean the same.

Flammable basically means it can burn. Nearly everything can burn btw.
Inflammable means: it can super easy be set on fire. Like gasoline vapour. Or cooking gas mixed with air. Or alcohol in high concentration and so on ...

I get your language context ... I started Japanese again. As Thai is a bit to tough, no idea why. It is similar simple like Japanese but the tonal stuff is hard on me.

And ironically, I just looked him up on LinkedIn and he is a senior consultant for Microsoft!!!
In which phase is he? Embrace?
I hope he is not going to suffer from "Stockholm Syndrom" before he gets into the final phase!

I think it was called FrameMaker.

It was so simple to invent a format for a text block, give it a name, and apply it where needed.

No idea why no office suit can do that 30 years later ...

Well, they just could invent their own sane XML format (is that possible? Sane and XML?) ...
And then use XSLT to either transform the bad bad M$ format into their sane one, or into the other direction ... /me runs and hides

Maybe the "fueling" part, but not the part where the fuel dispenser gets stuck to the car.
It is.

Perhaps you should once visit a fuel station that has H2?

Or the part where you are waiting for the fuel station to re-pressurize the hydrogen gas so that it can be dispensed into your car.
No idea what that is supposed to mean. If the gasoline station has no gasoline, a truck comes and filles it up.
If a H2 station has no H2 .... yadda yadda yadda: A truck comes and filles it up.

Obviously as long as there is "fuel" it is under enough pressure to fill your car, facepalm.

It takes less time to get a full H2 tank than a gasoline tank ...

Hydrogen does not leak in the modern world.
That was true in the 1930s ... or so.

Refueling a H2 car is faster than a gasoline car.
The fuel gets pumped into the car under high pressure.

A phone SIM card does not execute Java (or any other) software.
People keep mixing that up with "Java Cards"

Almost 4 years after the very publicly well known CVE was out there.
That vulnerability only works for "inside jobs", and even then it is complicated enough to set up that there is no known case, that it ever got exploited.

Java has not really anything to do with Oracle.
Unless you buy a Java version from them.

AI is first and foremost about threatening people's jobs.

Not replacing people, it's not actually up to snuff to outright replace many real humans at work, but to say to your employees they'll be out if they don't stay cheap and productive? That's what the bosses love.

Well,
Russia wanted to make sure in the first Afghanistan war that the pipeline to India and China gets built. But failed.

USA made sure in the second Afghanistan war that the pipelines never get build. So far they succeeded.

These lasers require minerals that are in short supply right now, especially rare earth metals. In spite of the name rare earth metals aren't exactly rare, but they are rather difficult to refine.
That is just nonsense.

They are rare, the lazers, because they are complex systems. You have to track the target. To kill shells you need multiple lasers targeting the same shell. The electronics use simple chips. As long as they can make phones, they have enough rare earths for what ever they want.

The lasers are in general CO2 lasers. They only use rare earth, if available, they do not need it for functionality.

The people in the USDOD are certainly working on getting lasers to the front lines but they have a shortage of materials
Nope. They lost the race when they could not deliver 30 years ago as their MIC was to expensive. Now Germany and Austria is selling them for an Apple and an Egg: the Americans do not even want them: NIH syndrome.

It takes china to make them mainstream and some angry words from an american president to push them into the US Army (the Navy has a few, but does not really want them).

Lasers: no have.
A fibre is super thin ... it is not one with a black plastic "protection" around it.
You probably never see it.

A 1kW laser is likely not enough anyway. But a few that concentrate fire would do it.
