Article 1, Section 8, Clause 12 --

The government cannot find the military for a term longer than 2 years. While most other functions aren't mentioned, Congress would still have to pass a funding bill every 2 years anyway.

A witchfinder in 1674 wrote that lemons are icky so Alito cast the deciding vote to eliminate it.

Remember, the only reason Tuberville is able to do this is because 49 other Republican senators are complicit in enabling it.

Auto manufacturers are all in board with direct sales to customers

States have passed laws prohibiting (or making it difficult) direct sales at the lobbying of auto dealership groups.

This will be very limited, and expect to see more laws that stop it appear soon.

It's a twofold scam.

One, because the person is buying new, it's driving up sales to a bunch of "confirmed" addresses, which is an important metric for Amazon sales.

Two, the "random" destination is a second customer's address, and the friend is being an unwitting proxy in a drop shipping scheme.

Source code pro for quite some time.

Seventh time's the charm.

The horn work in the DS9 theme is awesome. Just tossing that out there.

I'll admit, when I heard this, I went looking. The thing is legit impressive.

Then I felt like a complete piece of shit when I realized he didn't release those pics himself.

This whole situation is kind of sad. OneDrive is pretty good as a synced file system for Windows machines. It really does just sort of "work".

I wish they'd left it alone.

Sometimes, if you go real fast on another axis, you can go slower than 1sec/sec!

Tandem Diabetes, the people that make one of the few insulin pumps out there, quite vocally demand that, to keep your official apps working, you not update to the latest versions of Android or iOS.

Such bullshit.

'cause stupid corporate policy and metrics mean an unreviewed PR is bad for me, and an unmerged PR is bad for the submitter.

Not two hours ago I declined a PR because it was a huge change on Friday.

It's also worth noting that most phones these days always have at least one item in the "notification" bar at some point. Like, right now I've got two apps taking up a slot, and Google's weather thing up there, and that's a normal day.

The LED would always be on.

That sounds like a problem for IT, not a dev. ;)

Yeah, yeah, but I don't have to patch it.

Take your up vote and get out.

That scene, and the one in the council chambers with ".... we will teach it to them again." were some of the best moments of a show full of greats.

Here's that scene, just for fun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJmuHNDcXLQ
