Because Lula isn't much better. He wears the "leader of the poor" mantle well enough, but he's made plenty of money himself using his position.

That said, the Bolsonaro's lost me the second Jair made the comment about just casually culling 30k indigenous lives like it's no big deal. I'll take greed over blood

> I wouldn't be surprised if there are marines and/or mercs on the eixo monumental in November.

Unlikely methinks. I think next on Rubio's docket is Cuba. Brazil is a much harder sell dude to the sheer size and population of the country. Not to mention China would have a huge problem with it due to them having as many fingers in Brazilian pies as the US does.

Ahh man, I'd have had so much fun with this had it been released back then. The Rare/N64 era of gaming was a great time to be a kid.

> You can disagree with the tradeoff, but if you don't acknowledge it you're just doing propaganda.

The propaganda I'm seeing is coming from Google. I can't tell you how many times lately I've seen ads on TV/streaming pushing the security narrative for Play Store. Google knows what it is doing is blatantly anti-consumer and they very much want public sentiment to think it's not.

There will always be means to scam individuals through technology. Pulling stunts like this is not justified simply because it closes off one means of doing so.

Oh wow. I had no idea this was based on cellular automata. It really does give a totally different feel versus the other sections of the dungeon.

It's AI. I can tell from the pixels and from having seen a lot of AI in my time.

> They clearly didn't have this case covered.

More likely they considered it and determined it to be a remote enough chance relative to a passenger being the hijacker that keeping the door locked was the better default. A LOT of things have to happen correctly (or incorrectly depending on perspective) for a fully trained pilot to decide to and successfully attack the other pilot and take down the aircraft.

Hijacker in cabin shoots the inside of the plane to depressurize it. Pilot has to dive to rapidly equalize pressure. Door unlocks and the plane is hijacked at gunpoint.

This is but one of myriad scenarios. "Why not just X" ignores the amount of thought that has to go into security design on aircraft.

> sickle cell anemia (minor trait Thalassemia)

Thalassemia and sickle cell anemia are two separate conditions (though admittedly similar in symptoms, affected part of the blood, and likely evolutionary origins). Are you saying you have both, or trying to provide some type of clarification with the parentheses? I ask because hypovolemia IS low blood volume, and you used the parentheses the same way for the latter condition.

The server asks the bug "Why the long face?".

The bug, being a bug, proceeds to overflow the buffer

This has very little value when everything gets prefaced with "in my opinion". Government officials should be held to a higher standard when it comes to releasing these types of statements.

> Really curious as to what’s going on over there, if you’ve got any insight let me know!

Microsoft. That's the answer. Microsoft is happening over there.
