These days, you also get filtered out if you are over 45 or 50 years old. People whine about not being able to find skilled workers, but I *know* lots of unemployed highly skilled workers who lost their jobs due to company bankruptcies and downsizing, and no can't find a job in their field.
We pass those laws because we are protecting ourselves from the Giant to the south. If we don't protect our cultural identity, we would have American culture overrun us.

Actually, the only people reviling cancon are Conservatives...if you are in the content creation business, be it movies, music or art, you *love* the cancon policy.

Just because you can't see it working doesn't mean that it is not doing anything.
Ultimately, Ford is a Trumpette, and he is going to make the poor pay for the sins of the rich. Gods help us! As such, anything that helps the poor and disadvantaged, like safe injection sites, social housing, social and disabled assistance, are all going to be on the chopping block. And all his friends are going to make huge profits.
Universal Basic Income works better than just about any other system to help people in need, and get them back on their feet again. All of the current systems out there victimize the those in need before they get the assistance needed. It also encourages entrepreneurship as it allows people to quit substance jobs, and try to create ways to make money beyond such. Of course, Trumpettes don't like that because they lose control of the labour market...in fact, that is why Trump is so concerned about Mexicans. It's because he and his friends lose control of the labour market, and thus their control over people. It's enough to make one barf.
Why are there so many unfilled jobs? Especially in the High Tech sector?
Simple: Discrimination against Women, and older adults.
If you are over 50, and in high tech, you are practically unemployable in today's high tech field.
And women have it even worse, they either have to constantly prove themselves again and again in terms of their knowledge, or they are objectified as women, and harassed out of the job. It that way in high tech, and most "STEM" type jobs and even education programs.
Another Trumpie who can't tell the differnece between climate and weather...
On the other hand, if you want to read some good science fiction based upon this, check out Kim Stanely Robinson's "Science in the Capital" books. Highly recommended!
You are close...it's not that the CPU is 32 or 64 bit, it is the BIOS. There is a hack to use a Mac OS 32 bit bootloader and allow you to load a number 64 bit Mac OS versions on to your Mac. I've seen this done on an old iMac, google around a bit and I am sure that you can find a Youtube video showing how to do it.
Practically all *American* designs are old, and don't have good safety standards. On the other hand the CANDU reactor design is *very* safe, and this has been proven time and again.
There are many dialects of English, even within the United States. Boston English is very different from New Orleans English, or California English. And Canadian English is very different from US English and British English.
I read anywhere between 10-15 fiction, usually SF or Fantasy books a month. Add to that the occasional non-fiction book. I find that I don't read IT books anymore, I get most of my education these days off the web, either howtos or videos. The only books I would buy, IT wise, are reference books, and many of those have funny animal illustrations on them.:-)
The one software genre that really burns me is Video editors. They all want to use some variant of the Edit Decision List, or "EDL". Rather than using the standard way we select things on most softwares...example...You select part of a sentence, cut it, move the cursor to where you want to put it, and then paste it.
I remember having to download and then write out to disk a total of 93 3.5" floppy images to install the early Slackware versions.
Ah..those were the days...NOT! I thank the Ghods of Linux that you can install from a flash drive...simple, easy, and you don't end up with a collection of virtually useless CD/DVDs!
SCO Unix had a really weird directory architecture. It had one directory, I *think* it was/opt, where all of the binaries were set up in the standard directory structure you would find from root...and the usual System V directory structure was off root as well, but every single executable was symlinked from it's usual place to the one/opt! It was kinda weird, but I can see some good things from it too.:-/
My journey started with Soft Landing Systems, or SLS Linux, which Slackware was based upon. Technically, it was a fork of SLS. They are up to 14.2-current...what a long strange trip it's been!
Foolish mortal. I am willing to bet that you have never even stood in front of an Egyptian altar, or honoured The Gods. As you have evoked from the Egyptian Pantheon, when you die, you will stand before Osiris, and He will weigh your heart....I would suggest that you might want to go on a severe diet before you die...but then again, why bother, I am sure that Thoth will not be recording that you entered the afterlife. Pitiful mortal.
Good to see it banned. It has been co-oped to be the symbol for Kek, a neo-fash (New Fascists) group that is associated with the so-called "Men's Rights Movement" and "The Red Pill". The artist who originally created the character of Pepe has been horrified by the use of his character by the alt-right/fascist movement. It, like the swastika, was a symbol with a symbol all it's own until fascists co-opted the symbol to promote hatred and intolerance.
Yes, they stand on that mountain, but they are still building it! As for your comparison with nuclear, health, etc...sorry, the tolerances there are much greater than for space. Certification for use in the medical or nuclear fields is much easier than getting something space rated!
And most times when a "think tank" comes out with "proof" that some agency has too much bureaucracy, it is a prelude to justify budget cuts. It's just another piece of the propaganda war.:-(
Going into space is an incredibly front loaded type enterprise. They aren't opening a a dollar store, they are sending people in to one of the most hostile environments known to man. They say "Measure twice, cut once", but when you have the lives of people in your hands, you measure tens of thousands of times to make sure the final cutting won't accidentally kill them! And before you go and say Blue Origin and SpaceX are doing it so much cheaper, yes, but that is because they are standing on a mountain of research & technology courtesy NASA. R&D done by NASA has given us billions and billions of dollars in spin-off technologies over the years, and I am sure if you charted it out, your return on investment is pretty good.

"The Feds Would Rather Drop a Child Porn Case Than Give Up a Tor Exploit
The Department of Justice filed a motion in Washington State federal court on Friday to dismiss its indictment against a child porn site. It wasn’t for lack of evidence; it was because the FBI didn’t want to disclose details of a hacking tool to the defense as part of discovery. Evidence in United States v. Jay Michaud hinged at least in part on information federal investigators had gathered by exploiting a vulnerability in the Tor anonymity network.
“Because the government remains unwilling to disclose certain discovery related to the FBI’s deployment of a ‘Network Investigative Technique’ (‘NIT’) as part of its investigation into the Playpen child pornography site, the government has no choice but to seek dismissal of the indictment,” federal prosecutor Annette Hayes wrote in the court filing on Friday. She noted that the DoJ’s work to resist disclosing the NIT was part of “an effort to balance the many competing interests that are at play when sensitive law enforcement technology becomes the subject of a request for criminal discovery.”
In other words, the feds are letting an alleged child pornographer free so that officials can potentially catch other dark-web using criminals in the future."
