I wonder what they smell like.
It's likely CentOS 7.9, which was released in Nov. 2020 and shipped with kernel version 3.10.0-1160. It's not completely ridiculous for a one year old POS systems to have a four year old OS. Design for those systems probably started a few years ago, when CentOS 7.9 was relatively recent. For an embedded system the bias would have been toward an established and mature OS, and CentOS 8.x was likely considered "too new" at the time they were speccing these systems. Remotely upgrading between major releases would not be advisable in an embedded system. The RHEL/CentOS in-place upgrade story is... not great. There was zero support for in-place upgrade until RHEL/CentOS 7, and it's still considered "at your own risk" (source).
All due respect to Michelle Obama otherwise, but I think she was flat out wrong when she said ‘When they go low, we go high’. It's the paradox of tolerance applied to the political realm. How do you ensure a tolerant society in the face of intolerant people? It's impossible if you're not allowed be intolerant of intolerant people. How do you ensure that political discourse sticks to concrete policies and objective facts when your opponent refuses to engage with either but instead stoops to conspiracy theories and personal attacks? Also impossible if you're stuck talking about difficult concepts and nuanced facts while your opponent is free to sling personal insults and cognitively sticky memes that may have absolutely nothing to do with reality.
The solution is to apply social contract theory. Tolerance doesn't have to be a rule that you're not allowed to break. It can be a social contract instead, so when someone breaks the social contract by being intolerant you are no longer bound by the contract, freeing you to not tolerate their behavior in return. Similarly, sticking to policy- and fact-based political debate doesn't have to be a rule you're not allowed to break, it can be a social contract between political opponents. If the other candidate won't debate policy or facts then you're free of the contract, which means you're free to say they're weird. Which they very much fucking are. Once you get most of the figurative children out of the room, you can go back to making actual progress amongst the contract-adhering adults who remain.
Trump said of Harris, “Don’t forget. Four weeks ago she was considered, like, the worst,” and that she had had a “personality makeover … All of a sudden she’s considered the new Margaret Thatcher”.
Literally no one is comparing Kamala Harris to Margaret Thatcher... except Trump I guess. 🤣 I bet there are a significant number of voting Millenials who don't even know who Margaret Thatcher is. The ol' weirdo's references are weak and long past their best-before date, just like him.
MinuteCast from AccuWeather does exactly this. It looks at your location, looks at radar data for storm systems approaching your location, and estimates when precipitation will start at your location and how intense it will be. It's generally pretty accurate, with some limitations. It seems to be pretty good for consistent rainstorms but it can get tripped up by pop-up thunderstorms, where the radar track can go suddenly from no rain to downpour. It doesn't make predictions more then 2-3 hours out because past that timeframe it's not easy to predict if weather will continue on its current track or change direction. Even with the limitations, I use it all the time. Mostly to tell if I should take the dogs out right away, or if I should wait an hour or two.
Anything that pushes the CPUs significantly can cause instability in affected parts. I think there are at least two separate issues Intel is facing:
- Voltage irregularities causing instability. These could potentially be fixed by the microcode update Intel will be shipping in mid-August.
- Oxidation of CPU vias. This issue cannot be fixed by any update, any affected part has corrosion inside the CPU die and only replacement would resolve the issue.
Intel's messaging around this problem has been very slanted towards talking as little as possible about the oxidation issue. Their initial Intel community post was very carefully worded to make it sound like voltage irregularity was the root cause, but careful reading of their statement reveals that it could be interpreted as only saying that instability is a root cause. They buried the admission that there is an oxidation issue in a Reddit comment, of all things. All they've said about oxidation is that the issue was resolved at the chip fab some time in 2023, and they've claimed it only affected 13th gen parts. There's no word on which parts number, date ranges, processor code ranges etc. are affected. It seems pretty clear that they wanted the press talking about the microcode update and not the chips that will have the be RMA'd.
Am I understanding this right that the scalper buys a legit ticket to extract the token, then it can be used any number of times to get in a venue? I thought their system should be able to identify a token/ticket has already been scanned after it’s first used? That’s why there are no re-entry rules at most venues.
I don't think the intent of the scalpers is to allow ticket reuse. Like you say, there are likely additional checks at the gate when a bar code is scanned. If a rotating barcode is cloned, only the first person to scan is going to get in. Everyone else who tries to use a clone of that now-used barcode is going to get denied entry because the door staff's scanner is going to throw a "ticket already used" error of some kind. So while it's technically possible to clone one of these rotating barcodes, just like it's possible to have multiple authenticators producing the same OTPs, there's no point in doing so.
What the scalpers are after is a platform that allows them to resell tickets without giving TicketMaster a cut. TicketMaster allows their rotating-bardcode tickets to be transferred to a wallet app like Google Wallet. Wallet apps like Google Wallet have features to allow you to transfer tickets to another user's wallet, but the wallet specification also includes a flag for whether wallet-to-wallet transfers are allowed. TicketMaster sets that flag so you cannot give (or sell) your ticket to someone else using your own wallet, instead you have to go through something that TicketMaster controls. For transfers to friends and family, TicketMaster forces you to use their app. For reselling tickets, TicketMaster forces you to use their reselling site. TicketMaster's primary motive is obvious: they want to take a cut of ticket resales, and this is how they do that.
The whole thing is a legal fight between two utterly shitty groups, TicketMaster and scalpers. Here's hoping they somehow both lose.
The money came from products they sold online as well as their OnlyFans sites
Why do these guys have OnlyFans revenue? I doubt they're selling pics of themselves. Why would the models featured in those sites not cut out the Tate brothers and just deal with OnlyFans directly? The models provide the content, OnlyFans provides the platform... so what value do the Tate brothers provide? I have to imagine the answer to the first question is "threats" and the answer to the second is "nothing." These guys are just digital pimps.
I'm not sure it fits 100% with what you're looking for, but I'll take chance and recommend Slice & Dice (Google Play, Apple App Store). Free demo, no ads, single in-app purchase to unlock the full version. This game is easily the best value-for-dollar mobile game I've ever purchased.
Because the toxins your body is reacting to are already in your bloodstream. It'll take time for those to get metabolized by your liver, and how much or little you vomit won't change how much work your liver has to do.
One of my grandfathers worked for a telephone company before he passed. That man was an absolute pack rat, he wouldn't throw anything away. So naturally he had boxes and boxes of punch cards in this basement. I guess they were being thrown out when his employer upgraded to machines that didn't need punch cards, so he snagged those to use as note paper. I will say, they were great for taking notes. Nice sturdy card stock, and the perfect dimensions for making a shopping list or the like.

...is this loss?
He was a raging alcoholic who hid his illness from the medical professionals who examined him as part of his Super Size Me "experiment." A lifetime of booze did way more damage than 30 days of McDs possibly could.
I'd definitely agree that it's a Pit Bull cross with a shepherd of some kind. The shape of the face definitely suggests Pit Bull to me, but I get more of a Belgian Malinois vibe from those ears:
Could explain why two hours at a dog park didn't crush his energy levels, Malinois are renowned and/or notorious for their exercise needs.
I haven't actually tried the new ones, I probably should do that before I slander them. The Harvest Cheddar ones were so good though. I haven't seen them in at least a few years, unfortunately.
I noticed that Miss Vickie's has a new sour cream something or other flavour in a bag that's the same colour, or nearly so. Every time I go through the chip aisle I get very excited for a second, then I realize it's not actually the Harvest Cheddar and my hopes are dashed. I'm developing an irrational hatred of those impostor chips.

Hey, leave Laura Palmer out of this, she's been through enough already.
They smell like plastic, metal, complex hydrocarbons, and death.
