Do you extend this to religions and their adherents generally?

It’s shocking that the US actually engaged in war with Iran so readily without the administration considering the known scenario of the Straight of Hormuz being closed by Iran. I’m amazed by the lack of planning and logistics for something that should have been planned and discussed a good while beforehand, but I guess I shouldn’t be with this administration.

There really need to be safeguards implemented to prevent actions like this from just being conducted on the turn of a dime without any awareness of others, discussion, etc. beforehand.

I used to think that illegal actions of the US Executive Branch would just fail like getting a 403 error when trying to access a Web resource without proper authorization, but I guess this was naïve to think.

There really need to be major changes in the US Government to make it so that the mechanisms of government won’t so willing put illegal actions into play. Though the response of the courts has often been good, it is super slow and merely reactive. Instead, impermissible, illegal actions need to be preempted before the mechanisms of government carry them out.

Many Christians found this insulting too because it was on Easter.

For example, Tucker Carlson stated that Trump’s post is insulting to both Muslims and Christians. He said that he was personally insulted by it.

Why does this map label the US as “North America” in the first version?

That’s a really weird error.

I would not be surprised if Google deliberately introduces slowdowns to some ad blocker users.

Yeah. Spice/synthetic full cannabinoid receptor agonists are honestly terrifying and have such dramatically different effects from legit cannabis.

It’s not as if you really posed an argument. You just vaguely gestured to over a hundred years as if that tells us anything at all.

Feel free to elaborate on more specific points.

This is a great write up. Thank you for writing it.

Windows 3.1 was very usable and intuitive.

I used to run it in emulation on an iPad.

Those 60s classic cars, though iconic, relied on a very different planned lifespan compared to modern cars. It was much shorter than the cars of today.

A better analogy for Debian would probably be an older Honda Civic model. It’s older and lacks many flashy or hyper-modern features, but it’s reliable, maintainable, and actively supported.

Even if it were leaked, it would still likely be very difficult to prove that any one component was machine generated from a system trained on publicly accessible code.
