It wasn’t even that hidden back then, games like candy crush admitted to journalists that they changed the difficulty based on spending habits. The fact they might have that formula fine tuned even more shouldn’t be surprising.

The Linux development is about maintaining a viable option for a store if Windows went walled garden.

It’s going to be close, they barely passed it the first time. The speaker really didn’t want the senate to make changes and they did. It passed the senate in a tie, so the house really can’t change anything, which could be a problem for marginal supporters and hardliners.

The GOP just like the Democrats aren’t a monolith. The Dems may be more fractured, but there’s still 2-3 major groups in the Republican party and not all are 100% behind Trump.

I’m pretty sure that last decade or so has shown that Europe doesn’t spend enough. It’s not just Russia’s invasion. Military action in Libya was reliant on the US to sustain more than a few days of action.

Dread delusion claims to be like Morrowind, but it’s just on my wishlist soni can’t say how accurate it is.

There hasn’t been direct conflict between powers since it was created, so I’d say you’re wrong. Think we’re far more tense in the cold war era than now.

This isn’t the first time Iran’s nuclear program has been targeted. It’s been regularly attacked over the years. Getting weapons grade enrichment is really hard, it’s years of lead time to get centrifuges up and running before you can even attempt enrichment. It’s not unbelievable that they haven’t gotten pure enough uranium for a nuke yet, it matches up with what we know about their program from what has been inspected.

The UN has largely worked as intended, even now. It’s purpose is to allow the world powers to peacefully interact with each other and control everyone else.

It had congressional authorization, that’s what the war powers act does.

They were shooting at those people though. NYPD is absurdly inaccurate due to lack of training and absurd trigger pull weights.

The Iran strike is a terrible reason to try and impeach Trump. That’s why so many Democrats tabled it. While impeachment is a political process, you need something to attach to it that’s plausibly illegal, this was a legal action.

If they focused on sending marines to LA or the rampant detaining of citizens by ICE who technically has no authority to do so, they might actually get somewhere.

I think someone elsewhere posted that that authorization was cancelled. The real reason is the war powers act, all a president has to do is tell Congress within 48 hours, the tweet is probably good enough as it was ruled an official communication source in his last term.

Impeachment over bombing Iran was a stupid move, it was technically legal. If you want any chance of success you need to pick something more than “Trump is a big fat doodoo head.”

LA cops would physically beat the NYC cops, but the NYC cops would shoot a lot of bystanders before they got in beating range.

The war powers act makes it lawful for a president to take military action against any country, provided Congress is notified within 48 hours of that action. Then a president gets 60 days + 30 “withdrawal” to wage any war they want without congressional approval. Furthermore it’s been ruled violations are basically irrelevant if troops are gone before the matter gets to the supreme court.

Clinton and Obama both violated this law with 0 consequences. Trump might also violate the law, but we won’t know for 90 days.

If Congress wants the power to declare war back they need to repeal the war powers act.

Most favored customer clauses are not uncommon in the retail world.

This is becoming a really good case study for austerity working. Argentina still isn’t great, but they were bordering on hyperinflation and are now stablizing.

It’s the same in female fields, it’s not just prestige. Men face increased scrutiny when working with children. Male nurses are expected to perform the more physical parts of the job almost exclusively.
