Ironically I don’t disagree with him but for completely different reasons. It’s pretty obvious he wants to use this as an excuse to do whatever he’s paid to do by the biggest bribe.
But Jefferson pushed for vast changes and “revolution” (not the violent type which honestly feels pretty naive) every generation. Because why should the rules and ideals and commitment of the dead hold back the present and future.
Was always why I loved the books so much, every single step highlights poor management and going cheap for profit sake after having invested so much money in the cloning technology.
It’s like buying a brand new super car and then throwing the cheapest used tires you can find on it.
Dr. Wu tries to push Hammond to use slower, calmer, easier to contain dna modifications but Hammond ignores him, Wu can’t quit cause he was sniped as a post-doctorate and can’t publish any of his work so every employer would see a worthless resume
Muldoon demanded better weapons to handle the dinosaurs if something happened, Hammond doesn’t let him have anything more than a single tranq firing rocket launcher because “he doesn’t want the dinosaurs to be hurt”
Nedry was the lowest bidder but then they refused to give him good specifications and requirements “due to secrecy” so of course the code had bugs, which he was not supposed to be on the hook to fix for free, but Hammond went and slandered him to all of his other and future customers, basically blackmailing him till he came and did a ton of free labor.
Dr. Harding, the only veterinarian, (who also was the father of Sarah Harding in Lost World), wasn’t allowed to dissect any of the animals to study their physiology, so when they tried to sterilize them with radiation they had to guess where the reproductive organs were.
John Arnold (hold onto your butts) was overworked and the only person who know how to use the systems, creating a single point of failure. He also was ignored when he insisted that the park needed more testing before they open the park but was ignored by Hammond, because it would take too much time. He also said they relied too much on automation, but was ignored due to costs and cool new tech.
Hammond was an asshole who portrays the typical tech bro attitude even though he’s an old man. He was mostly a fundraiser not the brains behind the project. His former partner who was the genius behind the cloning tech (and Wu’s former teacher) died of cancer. But even during the fundraising he was a total fraud, they had made a pigmy elephant and used it as a demonstration of the cloning tech, but it actually wasn’t a clone or any dna modifications that made it. And on top of that it had a shitty temperament and would get sick if people touched it. Dude was a total snake the entire time. And he ultimately dies at the end by a bunch of Compys after the park has been mostly restored.
This just in. Cutting up a magazine or newspaper is also illegal /s
How could this be confused as piracy. It’s uploaded by the developers of the game?
While I do wish they’d cut back their spending in order to build up enough of an endowment to be good forever, that whole thread just reads like a crappy hit piece where someone is mad that Wikimedia contributes to social and more liberal causes.
My opinion is probably different than a lot of folks’. But when we’ve got billionaires using their ridiculous amounts of money to buy the United States and trying to do the same elsewhere in the world, I’d rather keep supporting an org that aligns with beliefs that aren’t fascist, racist, evil, etc. and Wikipedia is one of the best parts of the internet still, so I like supporting them in general.
That being said, I appreciate the read, it was interesting.
They’re implying that they were purposefully absent to avoid actually voting no on paper, but to accomplish the same goal of voting no and making sure the bill failed
Why can nothing be easy anymore
Curious what you find on open secrets. Stranahan’s is one of my go to whiskeys
Stranahans in CO Woodinville in WA
Are both 2 solid choices from blue states.
Some folks also like 291 distillery in CO, they’re ok. Not as good in my mind as the other 2
I don’t feel like the 4000 series ever really got to easily available at MSRP prices.
But on top of that I know a lot of folks skipped the last couple generations because the scalping was outrageous.
I hate it though. They’re not wrong that the companies selling or making GPUs could easily solve the problem, but they just don’t care.
Yup looks like it. Stupid app lol
I don’t know about that. They literally introduced time travel and then never bring it up again except for one sentence where “oh they all broke”.
Like don’t get me wrong it’s not horrible but it’s also not great. It is good enough for a kids story which is what it is, not something to build your life off of
It was audible he spoke up about and released his secret books on other audiobooks platforms like Spotify and some others.
There were some good trades and pickups this year, and sometimes you get a glimpse of playoff type performances, but our consistency is nonexistent. I’m sure the coaching staff will get at least one more season before they’re in the hot seat, but they have to do something to change things up and/or get everyone firing on all cylinders.
Basically been in a downhill slide since being eliminated by the Stars.
Keystrokes don’t have to be in a text field or input. That’s my point.
If I’m on say google. And I type anything into the field it’s definitely capturing it. You know this for no other reason then it would have to be with autocomplete as an option.
Keystroke capturing is the same as keylogging, aka anything typed even if it’s not into a place where you would assume it’s being seen by the app. Aka, if I had an app open in the background and was typing in my password, it would see and capture that.
They’re completely different things. While the privacy issues of US large tech companies are abundant and awful, there is a large difference between keystroke capturing and capturing input via fields. Especially when you’re agreeing to allow them to process and transfer or even sell that information.
Not usually. Keystroke info is different than text input, like if you didn’t click onto any field and typed it would only be captured if keystroke are all being grabbed. It’s especially scary if you keep the app running in the bg and then type something and it still captures it. Not saying they’re doing that, but the privacy policy says they might.
The rhythm part is annoying, it’s commonly used to ID people even through things like ad blocks and dns blocks. Could also (in theory) be used to capture what people are typing just by hearing how they type.
With the US 2 party system and first past the post voting system practically nothing would ever change then. Which does mean one crazy wannabe dictator can’t do as much damage. But also means getting progressive policies pushed through would also be impossible.
But I do like that idea in theory, once we solve our 2 party problem then something like that would make a lot of sense. I don’t know how we will ever solve that, figured for sure after January 6th and COVID that a real 3rd party would gain traction? And yet here we are.
