I mean, you can't, *physically*. You can get psychologically addicted to it, just like a whole lot of things, but weed doesn't have a physical addiction path the way alcohol, nicotine, and hard drugs do. That doesn't make it not addictive, of course, cause its a psychoactive substance that makes you feel good, and it's *really* easy for the brain to get addicted to stuff that makes us feel good, problem is people know the first part and vastly underestimate the second.
Yeah, flock is the current big bad, but the company that makes tasers is making the same shit, as are others. We can't let the sentiment become "flock cameras specifically are bad" instead of "mass surveillance is unacceptable", or we'll just be back here again with the next brand of techbro-backed nightmare tech.
How's that boot taste? There is absolutely zero reason to believe that this sort of thing is being any less abused in the UK than the US, this is literally the exact same dystopian bullshit that's happening here, and frankly, it's just not a thing that should fucking exist in the first place. Authoritarian mass surveillance is bad, full stop. Doesn't matter how you justify it.
You know, morons.
Because, as with all things in America, we are forever beholden to the whims of wealthy, lead-addled, slaveowning, pedophilic ghouls.
Because of broken american electoral politics, basically. Like, I agree with you, only two parties is broken and stupid, and in a country with an actual, functioning democracy, that's exactly what would happen, but the US doesn't have, and has never really had a functional democracy. The founding fathers were too fucking stupid, and too concerned with their land holdings for that. There's just too much systemic inertia, and without serious, systemic changes, there's no easy way to overcome it.
The 10 commandments that you're thinking of are the broken covenant, I.E. the ones that Moses smashes upon seeing the golden calf. The replacements for them do not, in fact, include "thou shalt not kill" and instead replace it with bangers like "thou shalt not boil a baby goat in it's mothers milk". (This is true in both the bible and Torah, my point is we shouldn't be using storybooks as a source of morality.)
Problem is, deathbed repentance isn't what these people believe in, these are "through faith, not by works" christians. If you actively believe that some lady eating a pomegranate damns you to hell just as much as punting a puppy into a volcano, and the only way out is faith, that's the natural outcome of that belief.
Wait, huh? Trans is just a shortened form of transgender in this context, like, the prefix you're talking about is the trans part of transgender. When someone says trans man or trans woman, they *are* saying transgender man/woman, that's what that means, its just linguistic shorthand. I'm not sure what the other definition you're using is.
It's because trans is an adjective, not a prefix. The same way you wouldn't say "tallwoman" (unless, of course, you live in the world of dungeon meshi) you don't say transwoman because that's creating a new noun instead of modifying it. Trans women/men are women/men who happen to be trans, not a secret third thing.
Problem is, sarcasm in person is heavily distinguished by tone, which does not exist on text based platforms. /s exists as the text based signifier of that tone. Were I to say something like "I'm sure Elon Musk has a fantastic plan for this" out loud, it would be dripping with sarcastic venom, but in text it could be construed just as easily as sincere, hence the use of /s. It's not a points hording thing, it's a workaround for the limitations of language.
Except the same problem applies, that's absolutely true for humans working on a farm, but superman is strong enough to juggle tractors. Like, he might gain tone from the constant "light weight, high rep" that he'd be doing, but literally every task on a farm, even absurd comic-book stuff like lifting a tractor with one hand while changing the tire with the other would still be light weight for him.
That's never really mattered much in filmmaking, see both Tom Cruise and LOTR. But also, we take for granted how much nutrition has affected us in the modern day, a period accurate Greek hero would be fairly tall at 5'4. For reference, Goliath, the guy so big his name is synonymous with huge, was only like 6'8, and that's in the heavily mythologized context we know that through. Like, assuming there was a real guy and they didn't just ass-pull him for the story, he was probably like 5'10.
An alt-right grifter famous for making largely anti-trans content, basically a christofacist podcaster.
Tons of things can break without appearing broken, and regular aircraft inspections aren't *that* good. Like, its entirely possible for a wire to break inside its insulation, look fine, and continue to make full contact, until a force pulls it just right, and that's only one example. Engines are complicated things, and while aircraft maintenance requirements are fairly strict, there's a reason pilots train for engine failure.
Places that have advisories/restrictions about not burning anything due to the risk of wildfires. When it's dry enough, any one of those little sparks could set a fire.
Horses generally don't have any discomfort from iron shoes, it'd basically be like if you put a metal cap on the end of your fingernail, they have no feeling in the hard part of the hoof (its keratin, just like hair or nails). These tend to be situational.
In the majority of states you give your name and address at the polling place so they can check you off, and that's about it. Like, the real ways people mess with elections aren't by casting someone else's ballot, that's incredibly impractical in all but the smallest elections. In the real world, it's mostly making it harder to vote, which is what voter ID laws and the save act are designed to do, they create a poll tax without calling it that.
As with a lot stupid bullshit in this country, that's the direct result of the whims of long dead dipshits, which has become so ingrained in how we do things that everyone has decided its holy writ. Like, it made sense for farmers who had to travel and wouldn't go anywhere on a Sunday because they were religious fanatics, but now we can't change that because something, something "the founding fathers" (ignoring, of course that it didn't start until the 1840's).
No, no, just regular slavery, as was never actually outlawed by the 13th amendment. (The 13th amendment explicitly allows slavery as punishment, cause this country couldn't just get rid of its horrifying bullshit)
Because that's not how this attack works. There's no info being exchanged here, its effectively a very precise timing attack that induces a drop on a specific internal rail at a particular moment, causing the chip to "skip" over the security code. You couldn't use it for PLC because the Xbox has no hardware for that, there's no data being transferred by the glitch itself, the glitch just makes it possible to boot unsigned code.
Yeah, it's a voltage glitching attack, basically dropping the voltage out at just the right time to skip the security section of the ROM, it requires access to the mainboard itself.
Nah, it let's them skirt emissions regulations, because they were written really badly. It's entirely possible to make a vehicle that can tow and still has crumple zones without making the absurd nonsense that is modern US trucks, but a lot of US regs were written such that automakers can spend less making the engines if they make the vehicles bigger.
Nice!
Radeon should just be in the kernel by default, (I'm running a 7900xtx), but a 9050 might be so new that it wasn't in the kernel if you installed 22.1, you might need to try a version update to 22.3.
What graphics card do you have? If it's nvidia, you might need to check the drivers, cause even the new open source one's not a part of the linux kernel yet, and while nouveau (the inbuilt driver) will get you a screen just fine, it sucks for gaming. On mint you would change that in driver manager. I've been running games on linux for a long time, setup right, they usually get better framerates compared to windows.
It's not even that, it was very explicitly an attempt to demonize the anti-war and civil rights movements in the 70's. Like, one of Nixon's advisors directly stated that in an interview. Lawmakers give a lot less of a shit about taxes than people think they do, modern governments don't actually run on tax dollars (taxes are effectively inflation control in modern economics), so it's not like bringing in more taxes actually benefits them.
Yeah, it sucks, cause it genuinely scores well on a lot of privacy tests, but has a lot of weird connections. Like, the Theil one by itself wouldn't be that big of a thing (they got some investment from one of his VC funds that invests in startups, but it was one of several) but toss in the weird crypto stuff and Brendan Eich, and it starts to be a bit concerning.
Brave is also directly funded by one of Peter Theil's orgs, was created by a guy run out of Mozilla for bigotry, and has a bunch of weird monetization stuff going on with it, just FYI.
That's exactly what I recommend when people ask me, imo its the best one right now for people looking for a solid general-purpose distro. (Used to be Ubuntu, but they ruined that with snaps)
