I just hated the fact the First Order have no pursuit ships. Well or why fighters need capital ship cover (usually that is the other way around in SF type settings)

Sorry to hear that, LC

Hm, so right now there are two vulnerabilities - Meltdown and Spectre. The Intel one is Meltdown and is more urgent. https://meltdownattack.com/

https://www.aol.com/article/entertainment/2018/01/03/eric-trump-insinuates-ellen-degeneres-is-part-of-the-deep-state/23322593/ I always knew Ellen was part of a PSYOP

All of this makes me wish I did better in my Computer Architecture classes. Then I might be earning big money

Well, seen that Intel discovered this as of Nov 2017 or 8 months ago (though in both cases it's '"Some say.." tier of FOAF BS). Some tests with pre- and post-patch are out (in German though) https://www.hardwareluxx.de/index.php/news/hardware/prozessoren/45319-intel-kaempft-mit-schwerer-sicherheitsluecke-im-prozessor-design.html https://www.computerbase.de/2018-01/intel-cpu-pti-sicherheitsluecke/

Well Ross Perot got dinged for it, once, though it seems a bit unfairly even if Perot is the kind of guy you feel like punching. It's one of those situations where context matters.

Well in that case it was a mix of sun in the keeper's eyes and being tougher than the Japanese.

Beat RRT3 but I am unhappy with being unable to beat the personal net worth targets. So will work on that in some scenarios, I guess. But other than that, looks like it is time to tackle Distant Worls, first thing is the manual. I am looking forward to it as it clocks in at 112 pages, so might be a good read

I am looking forward to using this as a reason for client's systems running slow when they file tickets with me. Would be interesting to hear more on how this bug went undetected for so long.

Hm, people seem to have the wrong idea about why foreign aid is given.

Right. You send off the one that is pulling the other's hair, the one that is trash talking gets nothing. No wonder US Scocer sucks.

Right. Just puzzling in a funny way, like some Canadian flying it. Granted some of those meshbacks are actually serious about identifying with "Southern culture". Makes no sense, but Canadians are a pretty stupid people, so...

You didn't think that maybe he's worried that it will lead to vigilantism ? Or could just not be cool with such information being given out freely, that sword cuts many ways. As an aside, what the heck is with the Confederate Flag being used in a signature here ?

Ah, I get a warm fuzzy feeling just seeing the box art for TIE Fighter.

Probably just leave us with more.

Meh, same ****, different year.

As much as I find these dnd stories hilarious, I could never play in a group that this would happen in. It's my own fault for not broadening my scope of "fun". No, you're not playing with weirdos, that's all.

I've been called racist for thinking Finn is boring and uninteresting. Which is kind of funny given my racial background Seems 'subverting expectations' was the only thing Rian Johnson can do : Leia, Finn/Rose, Luke. More I think about TLJ the more disjointed and rushed I think it was.

Completely agree with this. If I were in charge I'd give all the police agencies in the country a choice: 1) Give up your firearms while on duty 2) Give up your qualified immunity. You cannot keep both. That's when you'll see police using non lethal means. They'll always have their "afraid for my life" defense, though

https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/12/kansas-mans-death-may-have-resulted-from-call-of-duty-swatting/ Swatting results in the expected happening. Of course someone can ask if the cop was justified, but given how terrified cops are by everything it'll be hand waved away

...Did you ever see a happy person on public transit? All the time. They're mentally ill, but still..

Well the comment about a list being BS is mandatory anytime anyone posts one
