Idk, current president and general staff seemed to be very against it as well. Foreign influence and realized threats of assasination seem to be a factor.

This is such a loss

He was a guy interested in computers working at IBM at a time when computers were just getting going.

It'd be a bit like working at Google and being really interested in the internet at a time when it wasn't essentially an alternative to consulting for upper-middle class college grads.

What would it cost, realistically to print and publish these in the US? Is it not mostly just laminated paper on cardboard with some resin pieces?

Being recommended low viewership channels is a positive.

Having everything be polished, scripted and ad friendly is tremendously boring. My complaint over the last few years with YouTube was that I missed the wackos. They were the thing that made the web interesting to begin with.

There’s a good reason for people to flag these posts.

It seems like most folks in the comment section didn’t even read TFA.

Per TFA, this impacts F-16s NOT F-35s

Per TFA, the US is not actively “turning off” any piece of equipment, they are no longer providing updates (something with which we are all familiar.

Per TFA, this means that the US is no longer providing active support in a country-vs-country battle of electronic warfare. Which is what the title and article says, and very different from what most of you actually READ.

Honestly, a source dump with a “have fun” message is pretty useful. Adding a bit of documentation and some technical notes on how and why things work the way the work is gold.

I haven’t spent _that_ much time reading the doom3 codebase, but when I go “I wonder how that should work,” it’s a decent place to look.

Having a base of useful code to read that’s better than anything you’ve written is always a good thing.

They made good points and I made a call. I still think I made the right one.

I wanted to do exactly this, and was told many many times to rethink it.

A lot of very smart, very technical people voted for the guy. And there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s a free country and people can vote their conscience and speak their piece.

The article above is needlessly, wildly inflammatory. Frankly, so is your comment. Not everyone agrees with you, and you’ve made no case beyond cliqueishness as to why they should.

> at the pleasure of the president

The point poster above is making is that the president should be able to fire them, and should be able to audit whether or not they have been doing their jobs correctly, which is essentially what is occurring.
