I think armor that makes you blind might just give your opponent time to figure out where you’re not wearing armor.

I doubt they’ll use screen shots to implement anything like piracy controls. It’s too messy and inaccurate, and there are easy and accurate ways to check for file signatures. Every virus scanner already does it.
If they’re going to institute license controls that’s how it would work. Any signature of unlicensed software would get locked out by file heuristics.
I’m betting garbage trucks actually end up being first. A half dozen trucks per human monitor sitting back at the station, with two guys in a pickup to run out to any problems.
There are no good guys in the middle east. Only civilians that are angry about being shit on.
I heard Hawaii, but that could be completely wrong.
Already moved on to a boat, I’ll either be staging to leave, or already out of the country, when the election is decided. Depending on the results I’ll be back in the spring, or not.
They broke into shit that had already been broken in to, and removed an intrusion. That’s literally their job.
It’s about time someone did. War is just violent economics. Taking away Putin’s income will cost him the war faster than killing Russians.
Just because you can buy a degree, doesn’t mean you have a damn clue how to perform the work. Degree’s and certs are a good indicator of a qualified candidate, but by no means can they be trusted. Even being a vet doesn’t mean a lot by itself. Although I do have to say, all of the vets I’ve known with degrees, have been highly effective employees.
Because they all hired way too many people right after the pandemic and are just realizing they fucked up.
They’re called laser printers. Ink is for idiots, especially if you only print once in a while.
Guess why it’s not a law already.
It’s easier to get a recording of a hawk that never shuts up. Eagles let out a screech too, but not often. Try stealing a fish from a bald eagle. Bring a tape recorder…and some bandages.
Mandatory voting would include prisoners.
We might see improvement on some deposition materials after the recent discovery on dolomite crystal formation.
So how much closer does this put us to a space elevator? Assuming mass production and fiber creation was even possible.
Finally figuring out that war is economics with violence. Our sanctions have been half assed from the start, and need to include some serious pressure on any country not abiding by them.
China has long had a unification plan. It’s not really anything new. There’s just been a huge political football made out of it for decades. And of course that led to stupidly huge over investment in their economy by the rest of the globe as a way to encourage China to back off. Xi doesn’t see the value in the status quo. It’d be like California seceding, then making tons of money while the rest of the US went fascist and built military power. Same ending.
Yeah, but if everyone hadn’t played the game, that book would cost a thousand dollars.
It would be impossible to build today by any means. Not because of any technological problem. Physically it could be done rather quickly, as others have posited. The problem is that you could never combine the political and economic will to complete it.
It’s the same reason it would be easier to colonize Mars than to fix climate change. There’s a half dozen robots on Mars that will do whatever you tell them. On Earth, there’s 7 billion assholes who think they have a better idea of what to do.
