Unless this mfer is buying suits at Goodwill and is so deep in poverty that he needs to visit soup kitchens and food pantries, he can go ahead and cry a river. Tell him to build a bridge so he can get over it, I’m sure he’s got the cash.

Kotlin Multiplatform is just a system that allows code to be shared between target platforms.

JVM is a target platform, meaning that once your application is compiled, it can run in a JVM.

Kotlin/Native is another target platform, meaning that once the application is compiled, it runs natively rather than through something like a VM.

Kotlin Multiplatform is not a target platform, it just makes code sharing easier.

Then why not say that instead of pretending to be interested in the nuances of the issue?

Yes but alternatives like mogas may require physical changes to aircraft in order to make planes that can only use avgas compatible with mogas. Mogas is also not strictly a comparable alternative as it also comes with its own downsides.

From the California Legislature’s document site:

This bill would enact the Right to Repair Act. The bill would require, except as specified and regardless of whether any express warranty is made, the manufacturer of an above-described electronic or appliance product, in the above-described circumstances, and in those same circumstances but sold to others outside of direct retail sales, to make available, on fair and reasonable terms, to product owners, service and repair facilities, and service dealers, the means, as described, to effect the diagnosis, maintenance, or repair of the product, as provided. The bill would also require a service and repair facility or service dealer that is not an authorized repair provider, as defined, of a manufacturer to provide a written notice of that fact to any customer seeking repair of an electronic or appliance product before the repair facility or service dealer repairs the product, and to disclose if it uses replacement parts that are used or from a supplier that is not the manufacturer.

SB 244 has been around since the start of this year, at least officially.

If anyone is interested in seeing how legislation changes over time, I implore you to look at this service; I would go as far as to say that educational instruction would be aided by directing students here.

There is a lot of content in here but becoming accustomed to reading the text of legislation allows you to be more independent from mass media.

So, at the very least, our two good ol’ boys bite the dust at the expense of three crew members and five, could be, random others or support staff.

Seems a little expensive but it isn’t like the Ruskies haven’t had AA targeting issues before, makes it a believable (read: completely bullshit) excuse.

Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin was on the passenger list of a jet which crashed killing all on board, Russia’s civil aviation authority has said.

Earlier, Wagner-linked Telegram channel Grey Zone reported the Embraer aircraft was shot down by air defences in the Tver region, north of Moscow.

The jet, which was flying from the capital to St Petersburg, was carrying seven passengers and three crew.

They probably don’t mind losing the crew and Piggy might have been the target (assuming this was intentional) but who else got disappeared along with him?

The EU uses the same avgas

TEL is used in avgas so the engines don’t blow up, it literally is a safety issue.

Where the money comes in is when companies need to ground planes, swap out engines, and move to fuel that hasn’t been around for very long (which was only discovered after a massive R&D campaign).

I’d wager that the larger portion of aircraft owned belong to institutions like universities and other sources of flight education as well as companies which own fleets of these things.

Some commercial air travel still occurs using these planes also.

You’d be surprised at the kind of people that own private aircraft, they’re not always the kind of “throw money at my problems” people that’ll just lobby the government (they probably don’t even have the money to do anything), bigger interests would likely focus on switching to a new, proprietary, and expensive fuel as a political issue.

From the FAA:

There are approximately 167,000 aircraft in the United States and a total of 230,000 worldwide that rely on 100 low lead avgas for safe operation. It is the only remaining transportation fuel in the United States that contains the addition of TEL.

TEL meaning Tetraethyl Lead, it is used as a fuel additive in avgas to increase octane ratings (required for safe operation of engines).

Now, the post says “propeller” aircraft but this isn’t exactly true.

Turbine-driven propeller aircraft (Turboprops) don’t use avgas.

The unleaded fuel they’re talking about is probably G100UL and that’s only been around for like a couple years.

Nobody wants to use leaded fuel (unless someone inhaled too much of the emissions) and it’s on the way out whether our representatives want it to or not.

Speaking with FedScoop, the officials expressed concern that USDS, led by Mina Hsiang, and GSA, led by Robin Carnahan, in the past year have focused on small, niche projects while deprioritizing big ticket items like redesigning government websites, setting tech policy standards and improving agency branding. One such niche project, cited by two officials, was a public benefits studio run by GSA’s Technology Transformation Services team, which is a pilot text notification system.

It sounds like too much progress is being made for the sake of progress.

We should be hearing about budget concerns rather than these agencies focusing on non-priotity issues.

I don’t want to start saying that these agencies are bloated or are set up in a way to benefit political partners without any work being done but it seems that way.

Perhaps it would be better to get people with real passion into the rosters rather than people interested in entertaining the public.

Yeah but people used to actually have paying jobs through SL, this is closer to Steam’s systems IMO (Steam also appeals more to children than SL).

This is not a defense either, only adding something else to keep in mind.

I love this guy’s videos, he’s hilarious in a very unique way.

I’m going to put this in the Discord but I thought it would be useful to have it here as well.

I’ve always preferred CSS preprocessing with tools like SASS over frameworks like Tailwind.

They work extremely well with JS frameworks like React since they’re both pretty much just syntactic upgrades of existing systems rather than an obfuscation of systems that abuse modularity.

That being said, CSS frameworks are still wonderful, used right they can save a lot of time during early development by outsourcing the majority of design to the framework devs.

Thank you for being needlessly antagonistic, have your reward.

He was forced to follow through with the sale, the law is what protected Twitter’s board of executives and shareholders from Musk not taking Twitter private.

After the business is private, the owner has no contractual obligation to take actions that benefit the company (unlike a CEO), he probably could have just shut Twitter down right after he bought it if he wanted to.

Idk how many Twitter employees held shares and how many shares they held but the shares were their legal protection against Musk taking Twitter private and running it into the ground.

I agree that we need changes that favor employee protections but it’s a slippery slope as to who exactly is liable. Is it Musk? Twitter’s BoD/shareholders? What exactly are they liable for? [Quick edit] Also, what would the penalties be and who would be the claimants?

Not so quick edit: I was thinking about something related to unrealized gains if someone was promised that the sale of Twitter would net them greater profits than keeping the company public but that really only applies if the asset(s) haven’t already been sold. Hoping someone can add something more specific and credible, interesting to think about.

It’s a private business, Musk can do whatever he wants with the site so long as it isn’t illegal and whoever helped him raise the cash doesn’t mind.

Since ChatGPT went public, devs have been using it to write stuff for them, knowing how to do it efficiently could increase productivity for minor tasks (kinda like GitHub’s Copilot) but IMO it’s just an upgraded rubber duck.

Wouldn’t that then be the convention organizers paying for marketing? They have people that they want at the convention who don’t necessarily even want to go to the convention in the first place, even to market themselves.

Is the talent marketing their talent or is the convention paying them in order to create interest in the event?

In any case, having talent pay to register for an event isn’t something new.

What about it? Conventions already do this.

Want to advertise at the convention? Gotta pay.

Want to have a booth for your content at the convention? Gotta pay.

Want to just go to the convention to see the advertisements and booths that companies paid to market to you? Believe it or not, gotta pay.

Steam does the same shit, pay to list your games, pay to run promotions, and players pay for the game.

IMO, YouTube is lagging behind on this one.

That’s what stuck out to me, I can surmise multiple-but-equally-unlikely reasons but it’s just too strange.

Eli the computer guy […] had this show up in his dashboard: “grow your Channel’s popularity and engagement by promoting your video on YouTube, running a promotion helps attract new viewers who can boost your subscriptions, views, likes, and other engagement” and the way this works is your videos will show up if you pay them. YouTube is trying to get people who make content on YouTube to pay for views now.

Isn’t this kind of basic in terms of content marketing?

One entity makes content then pays another company to promote it?

What else would Luis being doing if he actually had to pay for the storage space YouTube gives him for free? Handing out CDs on the street?

Is he aware that companies like Pinterest already do this?

I can’t say that the sudden huge drop in viewership isn’t suspicious though.

get rid of these:

in the JS, this is what tries to redirect you:

location[_0x15ea[0]] != _0x15ea[1] && (location[_0x15ea[2]] = _0x15ea[1] + window[_0x15ea[4]][_0x15ea[2]][_0x15ea[5]](window[_0x15ea[4]][_0x15ea[0]][_0x15ea[3]]));

in the HTML:

<link rel="canonical" href="https://scorecount.com/tennis/" />

<meta property="og:url" content="https://scorecount.com/tennis/" />

<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-199625911-1"></script>
<script>
  window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
  function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
  gtag('js', new Date());

  gtag('config', 'UA-199625911-1');
</script>
<div class="adwrap"></div>

change these to these:

in the HTML:

https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js
jquery.min.js

https://scorecount.com/files/scoreboard300.png

put all these files in the root folder:

jquery.min.js
scoreboard300.png

Still doesn’t seem to want to update when an action is performed though.

There is also a “bg.png” but I don’t think that’s causing issues.

Pretty much everything works except for the score tracking lmfao

Since getting married, I’ve been popping in and out of multiplayer games more often as well as more closely curating what single-player games I purchase.

I enjoy longer narrative-driven, single-player games; they’re like a good book and I aim to be just as bummed out when the game ends as I would be at the end of a work from my favorite novelist.

But I cook, I clean, I do the shopping, and so I end up with a lot of short periods of free time throughout the day. The newest (but not franchised) multiplayer game is usually what I’ll play if I can come and go at my leisure without provoking the ire of other players.

I’ve never really wanted to 100% a game, pretty sure that was just FOMO, but every now and again I will want to replay an old game.

I was thinking about getting one but then I saw Retroid’s line of products. They run Android instead of using FPGAs so you can play regular Android games (including modern re-releases as well as Steam’s Remote Play) but they dual-boot a stripped-down version of Android for running emulators with better performance.

Was hella fun playing MediEvil on the flight from the US to India and that was with the Retroid Pocket 2, they have a much larger model out now.

So, we’ve all had a… time on Reddit lately. And I’m here to recognize it, acknowledge that our relationship has been tested, and begin the “now what?” conversation.

“I am allowed to hint towards the idea that we may have fucked up but I am not allowed to say how we may have fucked up if we did indeed fuck up which may not be the case. Could you, once again, reiterate what you think we fucked up and how we can fix the alleged fuck up? We haven’t decided to do anything, aren’t claiming fault, and are refusing to bring forth solutions to proposed issues.”

“Now that we have that out of the way, let’s chat!”

This sounds really fuckin cool.

Probably wouldn’t be able to replicate your beliefs/morals/mannerisms consistently enough for you to not question what it says and/or actually predict your complete internal through processes.

That being said, if you were to train the AI to be a kind of automated therapist as well as train it to speak like you, it could be useful for getting some thoughts unstuck if you’re in a rut, not sure if that’s something that is possible yet or not.

A real therapist might be better though.

How long have you had the RAM? I had a cap desolder itself on one of their dominator platinum sticks not too long ago.

1. Are you absolutely sure that your RAM is installed according to the motherboard’s instructions?

2. Have you tried swapping the two RAM modules between the slots that they are in?

3. Have you tried using both RAM modules independently from each other?

Edit:

4. Do both of the modules have the same specifications? Unlikely that this will cause issues (I think, I haven’t tried it but, y’know, in theory) but it may.

I feel like competitive gameplay could be fun for everyone but the space would have to be well-moderated but not sanitized which, IMO, is hard to do with an online platform.

We used to have hella fun playing Mario Kart on N64 with the neighbors when we were kids but it isn’t like problems didn’t occur, they just got resolved quicker and we learned that it’s best to be(e) nice if we want to have fun.

In an online game, you’re probably talking shit for weeks before you get forcibly removed from the game for any length of time.

Edit: to add onto this, it isn’t like you’re seeing most of the people you play with the next day at work or school so there really isn’t much incentive to involve yourself in the game’s community.

I feel like we all just need to chill out when playing video games, it isn’t like anything we’re doing is important, has an impact on the world around us, or is meaningful in any way.

If I, an adult, went into a laser tag arena filled with a bunch of kids that are screwing around, not really playing the game, then I get angered about this, I’m the asshole and I’m the one getting kicked out of there is a problem.

I could say to these kids “we should focus and play the game” but they’re already playing the game, it would just be me that doesn’t like the way that they play.

Then, the only things that me being annoyed have achieved are: I’m no longer playing the game and enjoying the time I spend, I’m making the environment hostile and toxic, and I’m probably not having a good time for the rest of the day.

Easier and less stressful to not pay attention to what others are doing if it genuinely has no real impact on your life.
