The object of a system of authority is order, not justice. Justice matters only after injustice sufficiently compromises order.
If that happens, that hypothetical progressive government would put guns on a back burning.
LOLNO. There isn’t a single leftist / progressive politician currently in office in the United States that would willingly “back burner” the 2A issue. That is not going to change in my lifetime either. They want them gone.
It wasn’t widely known to the general public. If you were / are new to the community it’s highly likely that you don’t / didn’t know.
As someone with a BL P2S I really appreciate other people helping with this fight. I won’t buy another BL product but I’d like to keep using the one I already have.
The current cost for what they’re calling “windows 365” is $99/yr per user.
Windows 365 Enterprise basic starts $31 per user per month and goes up from there.
I suspect you are confusing Windows 365 with Microsoft 365. The former includes a virtual (Cloud) PC and licensing for Windows and Office, the latter only provides Office licensing. Additionally the price point you quoted makes me think you are looking at Personal / Home pricing because Commercial & Government Office 365 pricing is calculated per user / per month and will vary wildly in price from $10 pu/pm to $50+ pu/pm.
Rather than declare this balanced budget a smoke & mirrors failure, let’s see where it stands in 2-3 years.
We should start by waiting to see if this budget even comes to pass. It relies on a number of disparate groups to approve various line items.
I suspect the city will be much improved by then.
I suspect it won’t. Receipts from personal income tax are expected to decrease and budget gaps dramatically widen between now and 2030.
No, let’s pretend doing something great, and extremely rare, like balancing the budget, is a bad thing.
This budget may be balanced, assuming everyone involved votes for it to happen, but the structural problems remain.
For getting a big pile of money from the state and deferring contributions to city pensions?
“Balanced” by getting one time money from the state and shorting the city pension fund.
Why does every fediverse reddit clone have to pull this shit?
People want to live in Echo Chambers.
Politically motivated censorship is the type of thing many people are trying to get away from.
Nah, most of 'em just want to be the ones doing the censoring.
First the US isn’t mentioned in this article. Second this is NOTHING like Minority Report. Your comment is dumber than a bucket of hair.
It’s not enabled by default.
Since we’re whipping out credentials, I’ve been in IT almost 30 years and I can tell you it’s not going to work like that.
I’m not the person you were replying to but I’ve also been in tech since 1996 and lots of things have worked just like that. All successful technology starts off barely functional and improves over time until nearly all members of it’s intended audience can successfully use it.
As an example in 1996 setting up a router was a specialty task that required training, by 2016 any moron could buy one off the shelf and have it running in an hour. As another example basic HTML was a specialty skill in 1996 but by 2003 you could do it with Microsoft Word. Smartphones are another example, they went from barely functional Windows Mobile and Blackberry devices which required ridiculous amounts of back end skill to deliver email to iPhones and Androids that any numskull can use for nearly anything at all.
My point is this; too many people are stuck on the “What use is a newborn baby?” question without realizing that the infant is growing-up at blinding speed. It’s also the first technology to carry the promise, real or not, of self-improvement when it reaches sufficient maturity. Assuming that happens all further improvement will be increasingly automatic and happen even faster.
AI isn’t going away and it’s only going to get better as time goes on.
There must be reasons why there aren’t at least SOME areas are doing this, since it essentially doesn’t exist.
They aren’t yet common but more are built all the time and they are far from non-existent.
You probably don’t realize how many of them there are. Here’s a link showing dozens of Solar Canopy projects done by just Lumos Solar. There’s dozens more companies across the United States doing these kinds of projects you just don’t hear about them. As examples did you know about the the solar canopy parking lots at Dell, Intel, Cincinnati Zoo, and Rutgers University? There’s also solar canopies in Omaha, Kansas City, Chicago, and Denver that you probably have never heard of.
Don’t feel bad for not knowing about them either; these kinds of project simply aren’t newsworthy unless they are tied to some major project or entity.
A comment up above says that in Canada the age limit is 50.
Yep it’s tiring but comment aged link milk because the very next day a bill was introduced to Congress.
Not even close, both of these projects are wildly deficient for that kind of use and the effort required to solve those deficiencies would at least 10x if not 20x the cost.
That doesn’t mean they are useless, I can definitely see some eyebrow raising asymmetric possibilities.
If you’re seriously interested in this DIY Radar System I strongly suggest you grab a full copy from Github and put it on local storage as I doubt it’s going to remain up for long.
David wasn’t God’s Son nor was he a Christian, but you knew that already.
Even the Apostles got it twisted while Jesus was alive. Luke 9:51-56 is relevant here.

I’m not the person who made the claim but Device Fingerprinting has been around for decades and Hardware ID is certainly part of that.
There isn’t enough AI code out there (yet) to cause this. IMO what’s really happening is that AI Code Review is finding vulnerabilities and creating ways to exploit them way faster than they can be patched by Human Dev teams. An easy example of this is the Linux exploits like Dirty Frag that came out last week and the week before.
It’s going to get worse before it gets better.
