There are technologies the police are not allowed to use for constitutional reasons. If brain reading was a thing, the 5th amendment would still protect you. Not that they wouldn't try before getting smacked down.

It's probably not used much for code golf, except for when it can be leveraged for specific tasks in which it excels.

Here in California, they started using insulated wire for all of them a few years ago after a big fire in 2018. They recently replaced a bunch of poles near me and I'm not even in a brush area. I guess it's not as much priority in the Midwest, but Hawaii should have followed California's lead.

How can they still run the EMH if they don't have power for running a few fans?

Other power companies have started replacing poles and lines to meet new safety standards. If these same lines were in California, they probably would have already been replaced. Ideally, other states should learn from the 2002 national standard and the 2018 fires and not wait until it happens in their own backyard.

Because this can happen without you connecting to any suspicious server.

Fraud also involves lies, so that a two for one.

They make the straw from parts of the sugar cane plant that don't contain sugar. (After using the other parts to make sugar.)

Why I buy flagship phones and keep them for 5 years.

So you want Ukraine to just capitulate? Just to satisfy your "peace at any cost" desires? Because Russia sure isn't going to.

Solsty air base is well north of Moscow, almost to St Petersburg. It was hit just a few days ago.

Embrace, extend. What's the next one? Oh yeah, extinguish.

By using the same scale for inside and outside, you can take one measurement inside, and compare it to something else as outside without moving the scale at all.

This was a short range drone with a small explosive attached. It was launched from only a few miles away. It's a cheap drone.

Try pausing the video before you close it. Then it shouldn't persist.

Many preinstalled app can't be uninstalled but can be disabled. Go to settings-apps and find the disable button for that app.

But they can text. Check out BilliSpeaks.

In areas with bad air, 20 miles is not "out of town." But companies that bottle oxygen already have the equipment to purify the air even in the middle of that smog.

As an English speaker, I would not even know how to pronounce a French acronym such as UTC in French.

GPT is an acronym, not a word.

If it wasn't "blown out of proportion" then many things would not have been fixed, and many of them would have broken, causing some of the very things that seemed blown out in the media.

But by perhaps November 1999, there was media coverage which was both panicked and unhelpful. Most code had been fixed by that point, and what wasn't fixed wasn't going to be.
