I have a Sony Erickson bluetooth headphone adapter from 2005. It still works perfectly and the battery has good life.

My diesel truck takes three years to turn over the carbon emissions that it took to make my EV.

Because when you’re screwing with important systems it’s generally better to write scripts.

He’s right. Intel dumped their Tick Tock fast development cycle and let their product lines languish. Real stupid way to generate short term investor gains.

I hear they’re free now

Sure they can. Look at Venus.

I think open source is a very Star Trek-ish Idea, so it’s natural that people from that community like a show with similar values.

This is probably why you get a nearly endless stream of covers and remixes if you just let Amazon Music play random music.

At least Musk is so loud and obnoxious that it’s easy to avoid him. Lex Luthor sits over there at Amazon quietly taking over the world and almost nobody gives him a second thought.

This guy has never used Powerpoint on a Mac.

I can’t speak to compatibility with AMD but having a display connected isn’t a requirement

Like not plugged to power, or not plugged to a display?

An armchair war commentaror? ON THE INTERNET?!?!?!?!?1one

I’m not sure where you think I argued that the civilians would win. My argument is that there would be a civil war because there would be a ton of armed people on both sides of the conflict. You bring up Gaza City like they’re all finished clearing it out. It doesn’t matter how well an army is trained or equipped, urban warfare is absolutely brutal and it would be in America too. You think that the US military could take a city like New York without heavy civilian resistance? Don’t make me laugh.

To answer your question: Me and my buddies would likely be the first to die.

Your entire post ignores the reality of what urban small arms warfare looks like. Look at the hellish time militaries have in urban settings: Fallujah, Kabul, Aleppo, Gaza City. Yes, militaries are way better than regular civilians, but there’s something like 400 million guns in the US. This isn’t just a few people we’re talking about here. If 1% of the population puts up a half decent resistance there’s going to be a hell of a fight.

I disagree. That’s all well and good when it’s a common enemy, but when you’re ordered to attack your family and friends who live in NY, that’s a different ball game.

What makes you think the armed forces won’t split in a civil war?

There’s huge numbers of armed Americans who would be on both sides.

ITT: people who think the armed forces wouldn’t split in a civil war, and that hundreds of millions of civvy owned guns wouldn’t be a factor.
