No, it doesn't and you look stupid when you say things like that
You should probably read up on a subject before you open your yap on something you clearly know nothing about. Might want to bone up on reading comprehension too. You know, before you make yourself look stupid.
I said run AND maintain. Those mid-century steam trains where huge. The Union Pacific Big Boy was a 4-8-8-4 and was a 135 feet long. When one of those, or other trains like it where taken off the main line for inspection and maintenance it could easy take 125 men or more to accomplish this task.
Every square inch of the boiler had to be inspected, every nut and bolt on it. All the boiler tubes, every driving rod had to be inspected for cracks. Tires, yes trains had tires, on the driving wheels replaced. There was thousands of parts that had to be inspected. An they only had a few days to get this accomplished.
National security is a nice catch all phrase that they use when they want to do a end run around the law and strip you of your rights. Unless its about guns, then its "think of the children."
I like trains. I've been watching a lot of documentaries on trains lately. Did you know that before the 1950's over 1/5 of the blue collar labor in the United States was by the railroad. It takes about 125 people to maintain and run a steam locomotive.
You know what happened after 1950? The railroad had a massive layoff. It only takes about 24 people to run a diesel-electric locomotive. So you can say that in the 1950 a shit load of people lost their jobs due to efficiency and automation on trains.
Do you know they are working on a cabbage picking robot? It and others like it will completely eliminate the need for a migrant labor force in the United States.
So, you can't tell me that jobs are not lost to automation. That has actually been the way since the dawn of time as technology gets better. The donkey lost his job at the mill wheel because of the water wheel.
Currently, there maybe plenty of jobs out there. But that isn't the way it will always be. As technology advances robots and automation will take more and more jobs. Retraining is a option for some but it will not always be that way.
An its the very marketing forces that people like to praise for creating current jobs, now, that will make this happen. So unless we are blown back into the stone age, this will happen.
I'm not exactly certain that Lord Trump can tell me what I can and can't spend my money on. Last time I checked Congress made the laws, not the office of the President.
the rented space had a full encyclopedia set from the early 1960s
My grandmother had a old set of encyclopedia's from before the moon landings. On the article on space travel is was full of theories on how we would land on the moon and be on Mars by 1980.
I wonder if it would be a good program to start to try to rescue old encyclopedia sets as some kind of historical archive of knowledge.
Giving people handouts never fixes anything, it just makes things worse, fix the goddamned economy so people can earn a decent living instead!
Well at some point you are going to find out that is has to be this way. That are start limiting births with mandatory birth control. At some point its going to become clear, there is no fixing the economy for this kind of issue. There simply isn't enough jobs out there and as technology advances jobs are going to become a ever shrinking resource.
Of course you can also just let people starve in the streets. Look how well that worked for the French at one time.
Likewise. I can also spend hours "surfing" Wikipedia
Same here. My first set of physical encyclopedias where magic to me. I could look up anything, even forbidden subjects. So many times I just grabbed a random one off the shelf to see what was in it.
I'm the same with Wikipedia and its random link. It's just magic. Just click it and learn something new. An its all linked together. One article leads to another. I have to be careful or I can spend hours just randomly wondering from one to the next.
I have a love hate relationship with iheart. I love the streaming service,
If you really love music then I would suggest you ditch iheart and sign up with spotify. You can have it with or without commercials.
But if you really want to go back to the days before clear channel get a app like Xiialive and explore the world of shoutcast and icecast. Any one can set up a icecast or a shoutcast station and you can fine lots of independent artist. Lots of crap too, but there are some really good stations that have a shout cast stations. If you like jazz, ie music, its hard to beat some of the jazz shoutcast stations.
I believe, I'm not 100% sure, but I've found that iheart uses icecast with a 48K AAC feed. I've found that almost every iheart station that I tune too has a shoutcast/icecast present too. Of course it could be a coincidence since I don't do much iheart.
Bullshit. There is enough odd verbiage in the Bible to support any tale imaginable.
Did you know that unicorns are in the bible? You really want to fuck^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hhave fun with a creationist. Go to one of their "museums" and get them talking about the dinosaurs, which are not in the bible. Then ask them where the unicorns are, which are in the bible.
I swear I could practically hear the gears stripping in his head.
Really, How hard can it be to come up with a burger flipping robot? I'm actually sitting here thinking of a design that cooks the patty on both sides at the same time. No need to flip. I think a guy name Foreman was shilling a grill like it on tv the other night.
OMG! Satellites cannot "see' below the top 30 cm of soil. Deep aquifers! How are even allowed on this site? Do you work for that lying Scottish firm that claims this nonsense?
Sometimes, I do hate it when I've got mod points. I have to read idiots like this.
Watch the documentary, it had details on how it work. Here is a link to a article that has some details on the process.
If you have access to The Curiosity Stream, or if you can find it else where, you should watch the Wizard of H20. It is about Alain Gachet who figured out a way to use satellite images to find deep water aquifers. Using his technique his has been right 98% of the time.
He is very couscous about making sure the aquifers are sustainable and will recharge. I've added him to my list of hero's to worship.
The documentary actually entities that don't want him to find water for people. They actually think its better to let refugees die of thrust that find them water. Sometimes I wonder if coming out of the trees was such a good ideal after all.
Actually, I kind of understand why the house of mouse wants to do this. From their point of view it makes perfect sense.
The very first Disney movies and cartoons will fall in to public domain soon. That doesn't just mean any one can pick them up and show them. That means any one can just pick them up and make a version and clam owner ship of them.
Tom Sawyer is in the public domain. I can take the story, replace Mark Twain's name with my own, and claim it as my story. With it being in the public domain I can't stop somebody from doing the same thing but that is one of the thing Disney is worried about.
That, and the fact they want to continue to rape the mouse for every buck they can get. Lets not be completely foolish about it and not recognize the other goals too.
I don't agree with the approach that companies want unlimited copy right. Copyrights by nature are supposed to be a limited time thing. Maybe after a certain amount of time copy rights should be like trademarks. They become only valid if you defend them.
Still sounds like a bunch of butt hurt for having to learn something new. If you like the old system stick with it, but you should probably realize there might be a reason people are going to systemd. Not because of some mythical ms/rh conspiracy. It might be because it is a better system..
Small correction, its space fantasy. You got mystic knights with swords that cut through anything. There are space wizards through around magic space lightning.
Sometimes being a stubborn jackass isn't a good thing. Qui-gon.
I remember saying right after Anakin killed off all the Jedi trainees, "well he did bring balance to the force." The people that I was with didn't think it was that funny then. I thought it was hilarious .
n the server side, we have systemd happily destroying the usability of server management with binary logs, opaque configuration and horrible documentation.
Funny, this is not the experience I've been having. I just migrated from a init based system to one running systemd. Other than a new way of doing things I've not had any problem at all managing my new system. I have to look a few things up but that is par for the course.
The log files are right where I expect them, and are in ASCII. The system is just as stable as my old system on the same hardware. It's not asked me to sacrifice my first born too it, nor has it asked me for any outrageous hardware upgrades. In-fact I had to remove 16 GB of RAM from it because one of the modules was going bad.
So far all the uproar over systemd seems to be a bunch butt hurt about having to learn something new, rather than over any real technological problems.
Slashdot Mirror
Or tyrannical like the Sith Lords?
Sometimes I would rather deal with Sith Lords. At least they are honest about their goals.

Mod me down all you like. I still don't like the asshole.
I'm really starting to not like this asshole....
Funny how calls of "national security"
National security is a nice catch all phrase that they use when they want to do a end run around the law and strip you of your rights. Unless its about guns, then its "think of the children."
Unemployment is never caused by automation
I like trains. I've been watching a lot of documentaries on trains lately. Did you know that before the 1950's over 1/5 of the blue collar labor in the United States was by the railroad. It takes about 125 people to maintain and run a steam locomotive.

Also, iHeartRadio and Clear Channel are that closely related?
Iheartreadio is clear channels bitch application.
I have a love hate relationship with iheart. I love the streaming service,

Okay, fuck Al Gore and fuck all the scientific findings while we are at it.
How about lets just go with "we shouldn't be pumping all these poisons into the only planet we live on?" Think we could all get behind that?
Bullshit. There is enough odd verbiage in the Bible to support any tale imaginable.
Did you know that unicorns are in the bible? You really want to fuck^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hhave fun with a creationist. Go to one of their "museums" and get them talking about the dinosaurs, which are not in the bible. Then ask them where the unicorns are, which are in the bible.

This man is a Middle-Eastern grain dish?
Spell-checkers are sometimes more trouble than they are worth. But on the other hand, I might have found dinner this weekend.
