IIRC, Season 6, Chain of Command.

Reroute power to the deflector dish. Solves most problems. Failing that, reverse the polarity (even if it's not a charged particle, such as neutrons - apologies to the Third Doctor).

What an idiot. Or is he suggesting that Harris will trigger a global thermonuclear war and so China, India or the other space powers will never be capable of interplanetary flight?

Thanks for the update and all your hard work - it is definitely appreciated!

Isn't this old news? I recall Trump not only throwing out the handbook, but disbanding the pandemic response team, too...

About the only thing Google is right to be concerned about here is the timeline to enforce these changes - requiring them to be implemented within a couple of weeks does indeed pose a risk that something will go wrong or be missed (causing vulnerabilities). Other than that, I look forward to Google being forced to allow competition.

Okay, this might be a non-issue: https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil/issues/2697#issuecomment-2403792309

To those that arrive here from any Youtube or Twitter posts, please know that disabling Recall via DISM works fine, and preserves the modern File Explorer (though some might consider this an anti-feature). CBS correctly disables it, and the disablement is preserved through reboots, just like with any other feature.

Edit: of course, the big problem here is that it's still present (even disabled) and hence malware could turn it back on without you realising. Ugh.

It's about time the government did something about indoor air quality. It's a huge factor in the spread of COVID and respiratory illnesses and has a number of relatively straightforward fixes.

Just wanted to make sure it was abundantly clear that that wasn't my opinion!

Sadly, you're right. They don't want demographics to vote that would threaten their ability to hold onto power.

“These findings are now final...,” Penn said in a statement, noting the five-member hearing board’s determination that Wax “violated the university’s behavioral standards by engaging in years of flagrantly unprofessional conduct within and outside of the classroom that breached her responsibilities as a teacher to offer an equal learning opportunity to all students.”

Wax’s conduct, according to Magill’s letter, “included a history of sweeping, blithe, and derogatory generalizations about groups by race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and immigration status.” She also, according to the letter, breached “the requirement that student grades be kept private by publicly speaking about the grades of law students by race and continuing to do so even after cautioned by the dean that it was a violation of University policy.”

So years of breaking the rules and already having received a caution from the dean and effectively all she gets a slap on the wrist - a year off at half pay. She should have been fired.

Looks pretty standard to me.

Oh, and you interrupted the cleaning cycle. Now Mittens will have forgotten where she(?) was up to.

 

Of all the schisms that cleave contemporary America, few are more stark than the divide between those who consider themselves to be victims of US history and those who fear they will be casualties of its future.

Not Facebook, but still the same sovcit insanity and in this case, how the Australian Tax Office (ATO) is responding.
