I love Alex but he just didn’t get those plates dirty enough. For some things you just need to rinse beforehand.

You can use your private army to gain currency and other assets by stealing them from other entities. Governments typically don’t like this but if you’re a big enough force they will negotiate.

What if they were all transported into SWAT Cats?

Yeah that was my wife’s idea! So the kid can go and pick out a book.

It just slides in, although we may mount it somehow to avoid children moving it around.

This was made mostly for our new child, so there’s quite a lot of variety of sizes with children’s books. Hopefully that should work out ok with how shallow it is on that end.

Were there Romans who could afford slaves but didn’t own any?

Honestly, still well worth it. And with pre-check it’s even faster.

You can usually get by with just being anti capitalist. Most people will readily agree.

What was their reason for declining?

They are, actually. They’re a registered non-profit.

I see they’re a non profit business. That doesn’t make them a charity. They have paying customers.

This is the repo (unless I have the wrong software).

However, it seems they’re running a business, which means revenue generating features will probably be prioritized. They’re not running a charity.

I’m sure if you donate enough money you can probably get them to implement better self hosting functionality. Chances are the email requirement is just what they have for other features.

Pretty unlikely to find a second hand system with the highish specs I’d want.

But if you mean if someone just needed a computer, then yes used would be much cheaper given how quickly things advance.

Pre-built computers. I’ve just been building PCs for so long I can’t imagine buying something that meet my specifications within a reasonable budget. And it’s fun.

Old refrigerators before all the ice makers were added.

Armageddon! Basically an excuse to have rednecks in space.

Willing to admit they’ve made a mistake. Able to take feedback gracefully.

Infrastructure is generally very expensive. Buildings, tunnels, or look the Tokyo Resilience Project that’s going to cost +100 billion.

Even if they saved a single person it’d be statistically significant.

I think some Chinese brands need to own their premium prices. It might be difficult with electronics however.

There are steels that premium Chinese brands can make that are objectively better that nobody else has produced yet and they are VERY expensive.

Thinking China is the same as it was 10-30 years ago and that Chinese products can’t have superior quality.

We’ve reached a point where the US doesn’t even know how to manufacture some of the stuff China can.
