“If anyone wants to separate Taiwan from China, the Chinese military will safeguard the national unity at all costs so as to protect China’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.” -General Li Zuocheng
"At all costs". You can interpolate that any way you want. But taken to the nth degree, one could postulate the CCP/PLA would be willing to die in nuclear fire over it. Or, we could just take it for what it is, meaningless rhetoric.
China has no first use policy. However, many in the PLA have publicly stated of hitting US Navel assets to keep it away from Taiwan. If they did take out a carrier, the fur will fly sort of speak. Not sure it's worth taking out a few hundred or billion people in the process however.... But, human beings are irrational creatures.
The new iPhone will be renamed iBattery. Need a new battery?! Well, for $800+ you can replace it with iBattery! And it's all safe and secure within its waterproof welded shut design.
Capitalism is when kids are allowed to run a lemonade and hot-dog stand out in front of their house. Authoritarianism is when the police come and shut them down and issue the parents a fine.
Capitalism is authoritarianism in the hands of all people. Communism is authoritarianism in the hands of a few ruling elite that also run the government/military.
One could say we already have the framework in place for Communism in America now. True capitalism died out with heavy frivolous regulation.
A functional government is supposed to be a referee, not the main player in a free enterprise system. Otherwise, it ain't free.
Why not design the drone with the battery back on the bottom? Design them with two smaller battery packs that can be be "dropped". Prior to landing, just leave a smaller amount of reserve power in one of the packs.
See where I'm going with this? Basically, the drone lands, drops the battery a few inches from the charging bay, then picks up a freshly charged ones (or a mechanism does the swapping). Now do the same with the other battery pack so as to not lose power. As for the spent batteries, the contact pins that landed on the charging bay start serve to recharge them on the next go around.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a fucking moron that serves as a titular example of the Dunning Kruger effect in action. A "Green New Deal" would literally destroy America much like the Great Leap Forward did to China!
The Dell Inspiron 11-3162 is cheap, but it only has 32GB of storage. I uses EMMC flash (Hynix HBG4e) which is dog-ass-slow!. In fact, it might be the same type of memory found in a normal USB flash drive. IOPS is like that of a failing 5400RPM IDE drive. And that was for at least 5 that I worked on*
The hibernation files is the exact same size as your system RAM. So, that works if you've got 8GB to start with.
Honestly, I think this is a good thing with modern SSD where they (Samsung for example) recommend you over-provision free disk space to ensure proper wear leveling of the NAND flash. There's no reason why this 7GB of free space couldn't also be used in this regards to extend the life of the SSD while not in use.
Truth be told - when you become that successful, it's because of a combination of three things - skill, perseverance, and LUCK. You can have the first two and do well in life. But to reach the summit, yeah, without question, lots of luck.
You're thinking like a Western; and I actually agree with you. In reality however, those in power would be short of slave-labor to exploit, so they would both in-source and out-source it.
Notice how the West is having an immigration problem and those in power spit on well-beings of the citizens it's supposed to represent? Yeah, that problem. Meanwhile, the brain-drain continues to flow out of 'shithole' nations which only exasperates the need to pop out babies like watermelon seeds. THAT is the problem. Over THERE, not here in the West. Just replace fossil-fuels with nuclear and renewables and the population will continue to drop in the West. Just ask Germany and Japan.
Meanwhile....build that damn wall to keep the breeding infestation out!!!
But no, the Bush family was too corrupt and enmeshed in oil interests to do the right thing.
It's far worse than that. He was a puppet that gurgled and drank the swamp water. You said it was the Bush's interests, as if the only. No, it was mutual to the swamp.
Personally I would have gone after entire nations and forced their declaration of surrender. Once done, get their military to spend the capital. Nukes required? Fuck it, let God sort it out. Would be far far cheaper than the TRILLIONS blown to this date.
First we need to build the wall. The cost alone would pay for itself in short order. The money saved from it thereafter will provide better coverage for US citizens.
Apple no longer has an excuse to allow 24-bit audio now that the DAC was removed from the motherboard. The fact we still don't have it points out that Apple is a little bitch!

Man gives birth to the Machine. The Machine construct artificial life and seeds space via panspermia.
Lather, rinse, repeat. The cycle of reverse-entropy (aka LIFE) continues.

FYI, the Clinton administration approved the transfer in 99.

From the CEO of Huawei. "I still love my country, I support the Communist party, but I will never do anything to harm any country in the world..."
Fuck communism (it's evil), and fuck Huawei!
Apple should just buy out Qualcom. Apple-Qualcom has a nice ring to it, no?
Turn Amish and blend in. His only chance now is a 2nd life as someone completely different. New identity and everything!

You could always have your remains turned into a headstone (or other masonry) so you could watch over her.
I'm imagine a building of brick or cement infused with the cremated remains to forever haunt the place.
You ever noticed why China is never mentioned in any ST episode? In fact it is, every single time. China IS the Federation!!!!

Tim Cook is a leader, but Steve Jobs was that in addition to being a visionary.
It was only a matter of time before the momentum waned after Job's died. Essentially, Apple's trouble's was a fait accompli.
Yeah, me too. Nothing like a massive human die-off to cull the human population. Right comrade?
But no, the Bush family was too corrupt and enmeshed in oil interests to do the right thing.
