Duck season!

Is this Loss?

Duck season.

In response to the DOJ’s assertion, Apple confirmed for the first time that it at one point considered Android support for the Apple Watch. After a three-year investigation, Apple says that it determined an Apple Watch with Android support wasn’t doable because of technical limitations. As such, it scrapped the idea.

Yeah, bullshit.

Somehow Garmin, Samsung, HTC, Huawei, Pebble (RIP), Fossil, Moto/Lenovo, etc. managed to do it just fine.

Rather than technical reasons, rather I suspect the real reasons were financial and ideological, i.e. it would would conflict with Apple’s brand-wide pathos of vendor lock-in, and would mean the maximum amount of capital would not extracted from the rubes as a portion of it might – shock, horror – go to one of their competitors, Google or Samsung.

But… without Mulder and Scully, who’s going to stop weirdos from coming through our air ducts and getting us, huh???

You know, I overnighted in Idaho twice a couple of years ago, when driving across the country. Both times I stopped in a Lolo National Forest and camped, saw no one, spoke to no one.

I’m thinking that was probably the best case scenario. I’m quite certain I didn’t even stop for fuel within Idaho’s borders.

Candlejack, Candlejack, Cand –

This has been harped on before, but the last time we were allowed to view reddit’s source code, I believe it was determined that deleted comments still exist and are hidden as you suggest but edited comments are overwritten with their new contents.

This is why I used Redact to overwrite all of my comments and posts with nonsense rather than delete them.

I can think of one already.

I’ll take, “Things that didn’t need a reboot, remake, or sequel” for $100, Alex.

In this case, actually no. The bill exempts sleeping in a vehicle provided the vehicle has valid registration/plates and is legally parked.

Small world. My 47LM8600 LG TV (which is 3D, from 2015!) occasionally fails to pop up its pop up menu when asked, the one that has the input list and so forth in it. Instead it shows a vague error about “memory problem” and prompts the user to factory reset the TV.

Turning it fully off and back on again fixes it, and the issue won’t reoccur for usually several months.

in order to shave an additional 1/16 of an inch off.

In order to sell more of their “premium” wireless earbuds.

Well, you’re going to have a much harder time taking down wooly mammoths, that’s for sure.

Provided you knew what you were doing, indefinitely. Or until you died of old age or managed to contract a deadly disease/cancer/manage to injure yourself in a life threatening way that you can’t treat yourself.

You might not be happy about it. But growing basic crops, storing away dried grains for the winter, hunting and dressing animals, making a fire to cook them, etc. should be well within the reach of anyone capable of reading this. Neanderthals could do it, so can you.

If you didn’t know what you were doing, well, until you ran out of easily scavengable canned goods and/or died of botulism from eating one of them that wasn’t as canned as you thought.

Cops: “We gotta have all these machine guns and switchblades and shit because there are dangerous criminals with guns out there!!!”

Yeah, half of them are standing behind you and wearing the same shirt.

“In at least some instances, requiring the Government to disclose sensitive information regarding its grounds for placing or removing a person from the No-Fly List could undermine the Government’s significant interests in airline safety and the prevention of terrorist attack,” Alito wrote.

Horseshit. I don’t know what part of “due process” people don’t understand. If the government is limiting your right to movement, they need to prove why when questioned. No exceptions. Especially so if the individual(s) in question have not been charged with any crime.

Wax would probably work.

If I reduce the count one it will arrange them in a neat grid, albeit with one row shorter than the other. And there is an element of randomness, if you click the arrange button again it will sometimes place the outlier on the other side.

I have no idea what the fuck its thought process is.
