America ELECTED Trump. That's a fact. B-b-but he didn't get the popular v - STFU! The election of the President in the US has always been, for 200+ years, by electoral college which Trump won in a large majority even after a massive Democrat campaign to overturn the results by trying to force the electors to not vote for him.
It was also NOT an "appalling low turnout" as it was statistically above the average turnout for all elections and had the largest RAW count of votes EVER. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
But hey, I'm sure the rest of your posts are just as accurate.
Back in ye olde dayes - milk used to be delivered to special boxes (provided by the milk company) just outside the house so the milk man could just leave his deliveries at the door.
Now there weren't lockable but it seems to me that Amazon could provide a smart-lockable box that could be mounted near the door or chained to the mailbox Yes, the box could be stolen but because it's a separate box nobody will know there's anything in it (unless they're watching for it) and then they can't just walk up and take the package.
This also doesn't resolve the "big" package issue either but nothing really will there and I'm certainly not going to give Amazon access to my house/garage.
It's very cool that you can set lights to come on at dusk.
It's also very cool that you can set lights to turn on when you come home.
In fact, I've got it set to turn on most of the house lights when I get home to full light and then off and to turn on to warm light at dusk (or a night light after 10pm)
Here's the kicker - the entire system doesn't understand previous states - so if you're out of the house after dusk the lights come on to warm light but when you come home, the lights come on at full on then turn off and STAY OFF - because that was the last script ran. There's no rules priority or return to previous state capability.
Auto-off is just as strange as well as the max "auto off" time for any light scene is 1 hour (at least through the various UIs). So I can't have a "lights on at sunset for 6 hours" scenario - I have to have TWO separate configurations - lights on at sunset, then lights off at midnight.
I'm sorry Dave... I'm afraid I can't do that
It's very strange but the pod bay doors aren't responding
I can't explain the discrepancy
Perhaps you should take a stress tab and lie down.
But you could get all of that with a basic database and simple analytics.
Sure, you can do that with AI - but that's like building a drone with a powered screwdriver that you can control with your smartphone to take the case off your computer. (Although I would probably buy that...)
WTF DO YOU NEED AI FOR THIS?!
Geez - just cap the number of simultaneous logins to whatever your business is comfortable with (usually 2 or 3) and/or record the device IDs.
It's not rocket science people. But then AI is the new electrolytes... it's got wut plants crave!
Except the glaciers didn't "saw" off the crust (because glaciers don't "move") but pulverized it under their weight as the ice and snow built up and with annual run-off draining the sediment away.
Certainly that's what I was taught in my midwest high school surrounded by lots of plains and "flatland", made so by the glaciers that came before us.
Debian's anti-harassment and sugarland fairy team removed the number 8008. This number is just juvenile and inappropriate in corporate environments. This will not affect the size of objects in anyway as infinity will not be affected and calculators will refuse to allow the number to be punched in.
"The missing number doesn't really affect the accuracy of the numbers as, at that size, its little more than a rounding error and the slight inconvenience is inconsequential to affecting the feelings of millions of persons and transgender persons who are offended by the term"
Why not use... Oh I dunno... the MICROSOFT STORE? That POS app that should be the store front for all downloadable windows apps but is next to impossible to use to actually FIND anything (let alone purchase).
To be fair IBM had the capacity to do this but they didn't (for whatever reason, no one thought of it, management didn't see the need, sales wouldn't have been that much different vs dev costs, etc) (think DOS and Microsoft) She saw the need and ran with it - kudos.
Actually - yeah. You see this isn't about sexism or racism or classism - it's about history and facts and not giving everybody a participation award. It's even in question whether the Wright Brothers were really and truly FIRST in inventing the airplane.
In fact I wasn't even skeptical going into the article - I was more curious about what her thought processes had been in "INVENTING WORD PROCESSING" - what was her aha moment, what made her come up with the concept of editing dynamically when liquid paper sufficed for most typos (solely invented by a woman) Turns out word processing as a concept already existed and she was just the first to digitize the process which, while still impressive, isn't on the level of upending an entire industry single handedly.
Digitizing an already existing "analog" process is a natural progression in invention.
In 1968, Ms. Berezin began working on ideas for a true computer for word processing, using tiny chips, known as integrated circuits, or semiconductors, to record and retrieve keystrokes for text editing. Since 1964, I.B.M. had been making word processors using a Selectric Typewriter and a magnetic tape drive to save and retrieve keystrokes. The tape could be corrected and used to retype text, but since the machine lacked semiconductor chips, Ms. Berezin said, it was not a true computer.
And thus the vaunted NYTimes drops "Computerized" from the headline and crediting her with inventing "The First TRUE Word Processor" which means a wholly different thing.
That ARM PC sank into the swamp
So we built another one and that also sank into the swamp
So I built Windows 10 RT and that caught fire than sank into the swamp
But the snapdragon... the snapdragon Windows 10 ARM PC will stay! Maybe even become a phone!

I like how this insinuates that it's the "dark web" trying not to be blocked when it's political leaders, actors and other public personae (people very much out front and wanting to be seen) that go out of their way to delete their internet history when it contradicts with whatever they're pushing today so they can say "this has always been who I am!"
Archiving and to a greater point JOURNALISM (not "reporting" but actually chronicling and journaling the days' notable events in an objective manner) is an indispensable requirement for any person to become educated on a topic and to make an informed decision.
Eventually these things become history and are lost to current though until somebody digs through the archives to rediscover the truth. Except now we can make it go away with a keypress and, poof, we've always been at war with Eurasia.
My understanding is that uPnP is necessary to open up dynamic ports to the outside world from other devices on the network like Xbox or for chat programs, running bittorrent, etc; Which is the only reason I've left it on on my router. Is this no longer the case?

I've flown both regularly and there's interesting trade-offs to both systems. Both encourage you to pay more for a better seat - either with early bird boarding on SWA or pay for a seat selection. SWA has only the "one class" of seating whereas other airlines like Delta have first class and now "comfort" seating classes which require additional upcharges along with the seat choice upcharge. (Although it gets further complicated because the seat selection may be included in the price of the ticket depending on what ticket class you purchase.
With Delta I discovered it made no sense for me to be at the boarding gate until I got the text that boarding had begun because a> my seat was always going to be there and b> boarding is stupidly slow so being at the gate ahead of time meant standing in line for 20 minutes while platinum medallion super club business class gets to board first (but not before those with small children!) (and heaven forbid your plane is there but hasn't been prepped yet so boarding time is delayed.)
Southwest on the other hand bakes "encouragement to board" into the process. You pay for early bird boarding to get a better seat so you HAVE to be at the boarding gate and in the line on time to get the seat (but not before those with small children!). Even if you don't pay for the earlybird boarding you still have to be ready to line up for the other boarding groups or risk ending up in a middle seat. Boarding tends to just be faster that way but at the expense of you having to take a more active involvement.
So they did a statistical analysis and found that some airlines separated passengers more often than others but NOT 100% of the time (or anywhere close) on one airline.
It sounds to me they've just done a statistical analysis on random number generator algorithms. I could easily see one programmer just doing a full on random seat pick while another does a best fit match algorithm then on to full on random seat generation if all tickets can't be allocated as a block.
Possibly you're also uncovering situations like RyanAir's passengers pick their seats more often leaving all the middle seats available or that they use smaller planes with 2 seats on either side where it's statistically unlikely a family can all be seated in the same row.
Look, if RyanAir and others can be investigated and provably shown that they intentionally split up families throw the book at 'em or regulate the seat fill algorithm to be uniform. But it seems to me if these investigators want to prove how useful they are they could look at more common "predatory" practices like bag check pricing and FORCING bag check (with the associated fees).
Or "resort fees" at hotels.
