ramble81 , to linuxmemes in I find this to be most accurate with Debian

“Way too much work” — if you ever said that where I work I’d fire you or not hire you in a heartbeat. An administrator’s role is not only to the stability of the system but the security too. You’re a hackers wet dream.

ramble81 , to Interesting Global News in China doubles down on national security, expanding its state secrets law to include 'work secrets'

“Work secrets” that’s rich coming from a country that regularly steals IP of others. Unless by “work secrets” they mean “if you find out we breached you, you must keep it secret.”

So what happens if the price changes while you’re waiting in line? Will they post the prices to the last car in line or do you have to wait till you get up to order. What about drive throughs that don’t have enough space for someone to get out of line? Are they gonna try to guilt people into paying whatever price they’re given?

ramble81 , to History in What has been the least interesting, eventful, or notable year?

I assume you’re talking from Human history?

ramble81 , (edited ) to New York Times gift articles in China’s Electric Vehicles Are Going to Hit Detroit Like a Wrecking Ball

Realistically it’ll just cause increased teriffs on imports or they’ll find a “national security” reason to block them.

Edit: Called it

Usually after you eat it.

ramble81 , to xkcd in xkcd #2898: Orbital Argument

When dealing with gravitational systems the gravity of each object has to be taken into account. So even though the sun is 99.999% (hyperbole) of the gravity in the equation, the earth’s gravity contributes that small 0.001% and thus the “center” of where they orbit isn’t truly the center of the sun. Tack on Jupiter, which is much more than a fraction of a percent and that “center” moves even farther away from the middle of the sun.

To look at it further, if you had two objects of perfectly equal mass and no other gravitational interference, they would orbit around a point in the middle of each other since their pull is equal. So it’s basically a sliding scale of sorts.

Hope that explains it!

ramble81 , to politics in The Supreme Court Is on the Verge of Criminalizing Homelessness

What’s gonna happen is they’re going to get arrested and sent to a private prison who will then profit off their free slave labor. And in states with three strike rules that’ll happen a couple times back to back and then you have permanent indentured servitude.

ramble81 , to InsanePeopleFacebook in Sovereign citizen made a special appearance in court.

This is fake. He used “judge” instead of “magistrate”

ramble81 , to Reddit in The message users get re: Reddit's attempt to leave users holding the bag. Part 2 in body.

I know this may not get seen but anyone who jumps in on this will basically end up linking their Reddit account name to their real info. Let that sink in.

ramble81 , to World News in China at the International Court of Justice: "Palestinian people have the right to armed struggle... Armed struggle in pursuit of self-determination is not terrorism"

You can argue all the semantics you want, but the optics of this statement direct relate to how this can be interpreted with Taiwan. Really odd that they chose to make this statement.

ramble81 , to politics in U.S. Defends Israel’s Occupation of the West Bank at Top U.N. Court

I’m torn on that. My state only allows you to vote in one primary and I was looking at the Republican one to vote for Nikki Haley.

ramble81 , to xkcd in What if you threw a baseball at nearly light speed?

“ A careful reading of official Major League Baseball Rule 6.08(b) suggests that in this situation, the batter would be considered "hit by pitch", and would be eligible to advance to first base.”

ramble81 , to Work Reform in Starbucks Just Saw the Largest Single-Day Union Drive in the Company's History

I see Starbucks closing 21 stores in the future for “issues”

ramble81 , to TechTakes in worst tech/crypto songs of all time?

The only tech song I ever knew about was Weird Al’s “All About the Pentiums”. I didn’t realize there were other actual songs
