They always could. And they’re not elected, so it’s nothing to do with democracy.
But they only issue opinions, they’ve never tried to enforce anything. Andrew Jackson famously ignored their decision in 1832, and nothing happened.
It’s really just another aspect of our society being built on trust and respect. And that trust and respect has been exploited and eroded in the past few decades.
Remember, government only exists by the consent of the governed.
Laptops with Ethernet are still pretty common. I just bought one recently. At work, we buy a lot of them. But I don’t think smartphones ever had integrated wired networking.
But that aside, what you’re describing is already happening. Wireless network deployments are much, much cheaper than running wire to each building. In semi-rural areas, WiSPs are pretty common. And 5G for home Internet access is pretty common in high-coverage areas. And as time goes on, the ISP-provided equipment is more locked down.
But I don’t think those things are related.
Safe is relative. Air travel is safer than a rocket car, less safe than staying home. Generally the risk is acceptable, especially since the rate of injury per passenger-mile is lower than driving.
Did you finally look through other games on Steam to find this one?
Funny enough, that’s exactly what the article says.
That assumes the court finds that enforceable. Usually they do, but a few times recently, they’ve said it’s not.
Their name checks out, I guess.
I don’t see anything in the article suggesting it’s particularly dangerous, only that it’s very expensive to fix, and in a collision will probably cause significant damage to the other vehicle (though that doesn’t mean it’ll necessarily cause injury).
The US doesn’t exactly approve or deny vehicles in general; any vehicle that conforms to the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards can be sold, as far as I know. And I don’t see any section that covers safety of the other party in a collision, unfortunately. Maybe write your reps and suggest they add one.
Because they share an etymology. Con+serve, from Latin for together+oversee, and con+fide, together+trust.
From the picture, looks like a fire on one of the wheels. I’m guessing something about the brakes. The article described it as a “hard landing”, so maybe something broke and jammed, then caught fire from friction.
Shit happens, especially with a lot of flights every day. Truck brakes catch fire sometimes too. This isn’t particularly unusual.
And even more indie clones like Monster Crown if that’s your thing.
We almost certainly can’t catch a disease from them in the same way we can’t catch most animal and plant diseases. Each virus and bacterium relies on certain aspects of the host to survive and reproduce.
Fungal infections are more possible, because fungi just feed on decomposing organic matter. As long as they’re carbon-based, they’re probably edible. Same for parasites: as long as they’re made of meat, they’re edible. (Barring any strange chemical composition, like if for some reason they carry large amounts of what we would consider toxic metals.)
Ideally, you’d limit your resource utilization to always leave enough of a buffer that your management tools can run. But even if that’s not the case, you should also be able to disable incoming traffic so that your servers stop even seeing the requests. Or you can just plain destroy and recreate with a new version.
But none of that addresses the fact that your retrying clients are basically DDoSing you. That can be mitigated by your WAF filtering requests so that only a fraction are passed to the server, as mentioned in the article, but preferably you’d just scale up to handle the load, or fix your clients to retry less frequently so that they don’t DDoS you with retries. Even a large number of clients shouldn’t be retrying so frequently that it overwhelms your system. Even if you’re selling Taylor Swift tickets, where millions of clients are hammering you, you can scale horizontally to at least implement a queue for users so they’re not hitting refresh every time they get a blank screen.
tl;dr:
Each request takes exactly one second to process, and a new request arrives every second
That’s their core issue. They were never able to process requests fast enough, and the moment there was any delay it all came down like a house of cards. If you’re already running at 100%, yeah no shit you’re going to have problems if anything changes even slightly.
Further, it doesn’t seem like retries backed off enough, or maybe should have just given up eventually.
The writing style also made it kind of hard to follow. Technical articles work better when they’re not written like a children’s story, but with technical writing.
I buy mine used from eBay. When I receive them, I inspect them, check SMART data, and run a test. I’ve gotten one that had a cracked connector, one with a bunch of bad blocks, stuff like that. I reached out to the sellers and they replaced them at no cost to me.
There are dozens of other very good games for every one live service. Find some you like and play them.
It’ll probably crash when you try to view it. I would scan with the flipper zero.
Invest billions of dollars? Yes, because they have billions of dollars. Russia has been reduced to bartering for their imports.
Who the fuck was this woman? Why did she do this?
