Yes, operating an aircraft carrier away from home is a massive logistics problem. They’ve been practicing with their rebuilt Russian carriers, but they’re still a long way from being able to sustain a battle group at sea.

We are the Han.
You will be assimilated.
Your biological and sociological distinctiveness will be erased.
Your culture will adapt to service us.
Resistance is futile.

Ukraine is the fire.

America is currently trying to put out the fire by dumping more fuel Russia on it.

Hmm, Trump might actually attempt it, but I think Russia in general is far more likely to sell to Chinese interests and accept a long-term Chinese presence.

I think the inevitable outcome will be China buying up a lot of Russia’s economy in the form of property, businesses, and access to natural resources.

The Z80 (which was the core processor of the TI-8x calculators) was only just discontinued last year. Lots of old chip designs find uses in embedded devices and consumer electronics.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Yeah, it’s more than just the fabrication machines, it’s a massive logistics network.

Maybe. Some of the older fabrication is still in heavy production use (e.g. 28nm, 16nm, 7nm):

These produce a lot of the chips that go into everything electronic, things like bus controllers and timing ICs, which are needed in higher volumes than CPUs and GPUs. But I kind of doubt the older fab technology will be a priority to build in the new facility.

TSMC isn’t just a single factory production line that gets upgraded to the latest and greatest every year. It’s a collection of many fabrication technologies that has grown and developed organically over time. While it will be helpful to build a new facility with the benefit of lessons learned in Taiwan, it will not be possible to completely replicate what that original facility is.

All of them.

The US plants may be coming online but it will still be years before they’re at production capacity, and they’ll probably never have all of the same production capabilities. The chip fabrication lines in Taiwan have been decades in development and growth.

Yes, because everyone who could have voted and didn’t bears responsibility for looking the other way while Trump gained the presidency.

And everyone who was vocal at any point about not voting for Harris for any reason is culpable for assisting Trump in gaining the presidency, and for influencing others to do the same.

When I look at history, it seems the only times that the violence has calmed down are the periods following some immense, extended, extreme violence, to the point that everyone left living is sick and tired of it and says “no more”.

And that… that is deeply frightening in the present context.

Depends.

If you just want a map to find things, OsmAnd is good.

If you want to prepare hiking/biking trail maps and then download them for offline use, Alpi Maps is really nice.

If you want useful navigation that includes traffic data and gets the realistic arrival time close to correct, Magic Earth is really the only option (traffic time estimates depend on users agreeing to share their location data while using ME for navigation so that it can make traffic speed assessments - quality will depend on how many other ME users in your area have agreed to share their data).

All 3 ultimately depend on OpenStreetMap for their map data. If you use them, consider creating an account and contributing with a tool like StreetComplete.

If you want something that has locations of businesses &etc with accurate names, operating hours, contact information, pictures of the location, street view, user reviews… there are no alternatives.

Barkley’s study found that the biggest predictors of shorter life expectancy in adults with ADHD were factors including lower incomes, fewer years of education, a greater likelihood of smoking, shorter sleep duration, less exercise, poorer nutrition and risky driving. He notes that most of these factors are linked to impulsivity — which can be treated.

“These factors – virtually all of them can be changed,” Barkley says. “Change the factor [and] you change the life expectancy. So none of this is cast in stone.”

[…]

“It’s not the ADHD, it’s the impact of the ADHD on how you live,” says Wiznitzer, who is also co-chair of the professional advisory board for CHADD, a nonprofit education and advocacy group for people with ADHD. “Because you’re impulsive, you don’t make the best choices.”

So basically… diet, exercise and regular sleep… the bad news is, it’s advice you’ve heard all your life and you probably aren’t following… the good news is that the science on this is pretty definite, and a lot of it is stuff you can do for free (well, no financial cost - it will cost you time though).

you have to be pretty dense to think that there is any meaningful difference between how Kamala and Trump would have handled Palestine.

This is just blatantly disingenuous. It is not aligned with reality. You’re either delusional or you’re pushing a false narrative intentionally.

He could pressured the party to take away Manchin and Sinema’s committee assignments.

This would’ve just handed control of Congress over to the Republicans due to losing their votes.

He could have gone after them for insider trading.

This would’ve required an act of Congress, as there’s no executive authority regarding such matters.

He could have gone after Manchin’s daughter for price gouging insulin,

This might be ethically justified but it’s outside the scope of the office of the president.

Ah, what is it you think he could have changed, without Congress? Like, specifically?

Which part is that?
