Sorta. Congress has the power to declare war, but the President has the power to direct the military in war and in “peace”. The War Powers Act was supposed to constrain that power, which limits military action without Congressional Approval to 60 days (plus 30 for withdrawal). But no President has acknowledged that that law is constitutional. Plus 90 days is a long time in modern warfare.

No no no, we’ll just tow all the polluting thing outside the environment.

Conversely, healthy people have (mandated) health insurance at minimal cost to the insurance companies.

What’s challenging about paywalls and not wanting to spend money is not necessarily not wanting to spend, but convenience and cost. If it costs me 10 cents for each blog or tutorial or github page I look at while working on a project, or 1 cent for every funny video, that adds up. And do I have to put my credit card in for every site? Hope that every site has good enough security to prevent payment information leaks?

And I don’t think anyone is interested in a Netflix-style internet that fractures into 6 different subscriptions to get every site you need on the web.

Yeah but night time and IMC (clouds) is when ATC is needed the most.

We’ve investigated ourselves and concluded there was no wrong doing.

Yeah, but I really don’t want my computer to look like my phone. And I hate that they keep moving toward that and “app-ifying” computers (specifically windows).

It doesn’t help that plenty of places still follow old IT guidelines that are bad, so they all get lumped together. E.g. change password every 45 days, can’t BT the last 10, must have 4 characters different, and we don’t have a password manager.

I’m curious what source you have to discredit the poore-nemecek study. The only thing I could find was farmer’s against agriculture misinformation, which seemed biased at best and also did not cite their claims well.

We’re doing the same thing! Only been 2 years so far but excited to see the collection grow!

No, but it still isn’t secure enough for classified information. The protocol is probably fine, but the weak point is the device. And the device can be compromised. Devices rated for classified systems never touch the public internet which makes them significantly less susceptible to being compromised.

Not having a stand your ground law just means you have a duty to escape/remove yourself from the situation if it is safe to do so. It does not eliminate your right to self defense or extend it to defense of another. If someone is being kidnapped, they reasonably could not escape.

That being said, I doubt it would be ruled in favor of a defendant in this case.

To be clear, the Signal protocol has not been cracked. Russia has been using phishing attacks to get victims to link their signal account to a device Russia controls.

Leaving aside wanting kids at a different time, most of these places won’t let women get elective tube tying or hysterectomy (vasectomy being for those with a penis) without jumping through a ton of hoops.

I’ve used Kobo and Ebooks.com, and import into my Calibre library. I know some authors have a way to purchase directly on their site.

It absolutely does. https://plugins.calibre-ebook.com/ there is a KFX input plugin. Also, if using an older version of kindle for PC you can batch download your whole library and import to Calibre.
