Because it’s largely irrelevant? If someone says “This is the best lock you can use on your front door” and someone else replies “not if you leave the key in the lock” do you think that’s a important thing to mention? No lock is safe if you leave the key in the lock. Maybe it’s important to remind people that you shouldn’t leave your key in the lock, but that statement says nothing about the security of the lock.

Similarly maybe it’s important to remind people that their phones might already be rooted, but that statement says nothing about whether Signal is good or bad from a security point of view.

Their losses are clearly significant enough to bring a foreign army (North Koreans) to replenish their forces. Maybe not 50% but I don’t think it’s that far off.

Do you not know history? That is the exact kind of attitude that doomed the league of nations. The UN exists to manage international affairs. If you start kicking out members or start demanding specific resolutions you can’t manage international affairs because countries will say “fuck your org, I’ll do my own thing”.

My one question would be “How?”

What the hell are you doing that your hard drives are overheating? How do you even know it’s overheating as I’m like 90% certain hard drives (except NVMe if we’re being liberal with the meaning of hard drive) don’t even have temperature sensors?

The only conclusion I can come to is that everything he’s saying is just bullshit.

You give us 50% of your natural resources and we’ll give you eggs (no guarantees on getting the eggs though).

You need to be more specific than “a child” considering he mentally already seems to be at the intellectual capacity of a 15-16 year old (except without any of the capacity to learn).

I’m going to be a bit controversial but I think Harris getting elected wouldn’t have solved people not being able to afford to rent let alone buy a house, it would’ve have solved the cost of living, the abhorrent state of health care, the laughably poor labor rights etc. Harris would’ve had a better impact on an international stage (for example not turning former allies against the US) but for America it would’ve a road down the significantly less steeper hill than what Trump brought, however downhill nonetheless. Americans are getting screwed regardless of who they vote for because the politicians work for the corporations not the American people.

Soon you’ll be wearing my sword like a shish kebab.

Hypothetically you could have a separate “previous names” table where you keep the previous names and on the main table you only keep the current name. There are a lot of ways to design a db to not unnecessarily duplicate SSNs, but without knowing the implementation it’s hard to say how wrong Musk is. But it’s obvious he doesn’t know what he’s talking about because we know that due to human error SSN-s are not unique and you can’t enforce uniqueness on SSN-s without completely fucking up the system. Complaining about it the way he did indicates that he doesn’t really understand why things are the way they are.

I think you meant:

Yes

If you stop drinking beer and get a better diet.

More like they wouldn’t know a tyrant even if one shouted “I’m a fucking tyrant”.

What are the actual indicators of a good economy?

So why isn’t Russia taking responsibilities for the atrocities and illegal occupations done by the USSR? It’s as if it’s not just a name change.

Also what agreement do you think gives Russia that guarantee? There’s no paper that says NATO won’t expand east.

Okay. This is a bit more nuanced and what I gave was my opinion, as in they’re not the successor. They are the successor in some cases, but whether they’re actually the successor or not depends on which option is beneficial to Russia. When it comes to NATO Russia likes to act like it’s the successor, but when it comes to reparations for the atrocities the USSR committed that’s when Russia says they’re not actually the successor to the USSR and can’t be responsible for the atrocities committed by the USSR. I’m my eyes you can’t have it both ways and as such I’m just taking cues from the Russian playbook. Whatever guarantees were given they were given to the USSR and not Russia, especially when those guarantees were never on paper.

In case anyone is thinking of taking this troll seriously, there is no treaty that prevents NATO from expanding east. There was something like it between NATO and the USSR but Russia officially is not the successor to USSR so they have no claim to that guarantee. It’s all Russian propaganda.

Probably so when Isreal eventually breaks the ceasefire Trump can blame it on the “worst ceasefire deal ever made”.

2016 we got Blood and Wine for Witcher 3 and Fallout 4 (which is a good game, just not a good Fallout game). Oh and we got Doom.

2017 wasn’t that great for AAA, except for Nintendo. But we still got great games like Breath of the wild, Prey, Nier Automata, Hellblade, Hollow Knight, Undertale to name a few.

2018 we got Red Dead Redemption 2, Monster Hunter World, God of War.

2019 we got Death Stranding, Divinity Original Sin 2, Sekiro, Resident Evil 2

2020 we got Final Fantasy 7 Remake, The last of us 2, Hades

2021 is kind of a dud because of covid.

So I’m terms of AAA only 2017 and 2021 can really be considered duds. But indies released some absolute bangers between 2016-2021. For example Disco Elysium, among us, outer wilds, Stardew valley, inscryption etc.

You could argue that Shadow of the erd tree puts elden ring in 2024 because it had so much content.

Maybe I’m misremembering (or it’s just old knowledge and new chips are more sophisticated) but despite it being low voltage vs high voltage the outcome is still on or off because there’s a resistor in the semiconductor that either allows current through or not. If it were a light switch it would be the equivalent of turning the light on or off.
