Tom, I know you did not watch DS9. You should watch in The Pale Moon Night. Itโ€™s a great story.

Also for most, itโ€™s a highly leveraged investment. At 10% down it has a 9/1 leverage. With a carry cost of 6% of the leverage per year. Anything less than 5.4% growth after inflation , taxes and maintenance effectively wipes out your principal.

I think that this dark age is really shown by the Klingon family. They shun tech and live as simple hunter gatherers. There are people who still have ships. The battle shows how out of date they are.

I have been reading about using the noise framework instead of a standard HTTPS. Since it derives a sender and receiver keys, does it meet your definition?

Well that is just rude for United Kingdom, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Netherlands, Japan, Thailand, Bhutan, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, Malaysia, Oman, Qatar, Brunei, Cambodia, and Morocco. Could you imagine flying in as the King of one of those counties and seeing that.

Me as a kid: Nobody could figure out who Batman was
Me as an adult: He drives to crime scenes so he is local. He needs to have a ton of money. He also canโ€™t have a day job as he is up all night. Gee, who could it be?

Wisdom is conflated with willpower. In D&D Wisdom is more an attunement with subtle things. It helps in understanding people, animal handling and attunement with a deity.

Me as a child: How does Batman have time to do everything?
Me as an adult: Man, Batman's life is easy. No childcare, eldercare, commuting, long work hours, budgeting ,cooking, cleaning and taking care of a house. He has plenty of time to be a superhero.

Call your mother is a great place. I don't like hot honey but their bagels are great.

to be honest, anyone can land an airplane. Landing one in a manner that you can walk away is a different thing.

Yea but the hackers could not figure out how the numbers worked as all of the programs were in reverse polish notation 2,3,+

That could mean that you are celebrating due to a good result or realized that a doughnut ice-cream sandwich won't matter.

There is a game called universal paperclip about an out of control AI that convert the universe into paperclips. I'm currently using the comet browser to have an AI play the game. It's weird.

I'm just looking at the image. Could the graph be any different? I guess it could be flat but without a Y axis, would there be any time in the future where the risk would be less as time goes by? It basely says "As time goes by, risk goes up"

I think it is time to toss those eggs from your fridge. They are well past the sell by date.

They are going to call and say they found a note saying โ€œGmail passwordโ€ . Now we canโ€™t trust that youโ€™re the right person so could you just confirm what it says here?

Unfortunately for the 3 injured police officer, the trail did not go cold.

Is this how he previously evaded the police?

He was caught when he stepped on a Lego and gave away his location.

The Coast guard's focus is 200 nautical miles from the coast of the U.S. Anything outside this is international water. The distance from Puerto Rico to Venezuela is about 500 miles. It would be intresting to know the jurisdiction of the boat where the boat was when destroyed.
