has the added benefit of potentially provoking them into getting themselves arrested if there are cops watching.

As long as the cops don't sympathize with the nazis

That was interesting.

Is there an add-on that changes the header information from an HTTP request to show bogus but common identifying information?

That is crowdsource the most common configurations and set that as the default in the add-on, so now you look like just another face in the crowd.

Russia uses nukes in Ukraine to "win" the war. Now they control land that has large swaths that are completely unlivable and non-productive for farming. And the "livable" parts Russia would have to spend huge sums of money to re-build the infrastructure from the blast(s).

Even if the rest of the world let's them get away with that (which I doubt they would) it doesn't seem like a very good strategy.

Nixon lost the 1960 election to Kennedy in part due to how he looked during the first televised debate.

while I agree with you and would love to have policy be the main driver of people's decisions, elections are unfortunately more about likability than policy for most voters.

Where can I apply for a position to be a "they". Sounds like a really fun career.

You could see part of Harris' teams strategy was to bait him with things to make him mad.

There was the statement about him losing 400 million dollars, the statement about other western leaders laughing at him, the rally size comment. Probably a few more.

If he was smarter he would have seen what they she was attempting and changed how he responded

You don't have to if you don't want.

But whether you like it or no rich entertainers like Taylor Swift get lots of media and views. Which parleys into influence and bringing attention to a candidate or an idea.

This is the reason why anyone that wants to grow a brand and/or an idea will try to get a celebrity to endorse it.

Edit: This doesn't mean they know more than the average joe it's all about marketing

I think this company has few different teams that work on the problem from different angles

Some are on the boats in the Pacific some are building interceptors in rivers in countries that are the largest producers of waste that makes it to the ocean. Of course they can't fix the problem just slow it down. The fix comes from these countries changing how they allow garbage to be collected and stored.

 

Covering large parking lots with solar panels is an idea that goes back decades but in America at least it's an idea that has never really taken off.

What is the reason for that? Is it due to the overall cost or is there something else that keeps Walmart, Target, Costco, Sams Club, Malls, etc. from covering their parking lots with these panels and selling the power?

 

What's your go to for music while you workout?

 

This question has been around for a while but I'm curious as to your answer

 

Sometimes you just want to brag about something you excel at but never get the chance or you're just to modest. Now is your chance to tell a bunch of internet strangers about your amazing talent.

 

Native Land is an app to help map Indigenous territories, treaties, and languages.

 

When I tell people I've never seen the Lion King they are really baffled by that.

 

I see a lot of posts for apps that I would like to try but they all send me to a Github link - What is the process for getting an executable of these apps? Do I have to compile them myself? OR am I missing the .exe or .zip file option?

I really feel like I'm missing something easy..
