A senior Secret Service official briefed on the planning for the Wisconsin rally said the agency was “never configured to provide such an elevated level of protection for an increasing number of protected.” The official was granted anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.

“Our personnel and equipment are being pushed to their limits to sustain the current operational tempo,” the official said. “This proposed Wisconsin event also took place during the United Nations General Assembly, where the Secret Service is responsible for the safety and security of over 140 world leaders amid a challenged global threat level.”

Seems like a reasonable justification based on check notes literally everything happening right now.

Weird how OP’s article misses out on this key piece of information. Might be a bit of bias there 🤔.

Now is probably the best time to try counterfeiting US bills.

I’m actually surprised at how benign this report is. It’s all stuff we more or less already know. I wanted to see the couches.

Are split peas and chickpeas not beans?

This is 90s thinking. Why must terminal emulators only be text and only do things that a physical terminal could?

I keep trying to imagine what abandoning TTY interfaces in Linux would look like and I can’t comprehend the rework that would be required. It’s so fundamentally different.

For example, how would the SSH protocol work? How would that be compatible? Would we have to abandon SSH or always X forward?

There is definitely a pressure to extend beyond standard TTY. Tmux captures mouse action and has a window management system. fish shell has autocomplete. But both of these still use the same medium of text.

I may simply lack imagination.

TIL viu exists.

I think the issue fundamentally is that this isn’t what terminal emulators are. The terminal emulator initializes a TTY session and enters a shell environment (sh, zsh, fish, etc). The medium is text and cannot be anything else.

Begin able to view images in the terminal would be amazing alone - just like you can cat a text file. I would hate to need to launch a GUI program every time I wanted to see what was inside a text file but that is exactly what I need to do for images or PDFs.

Would be convenient. There are things like neofetch’s backend capabilities that magically embeds images, but I don’t know how it works and it might not be scalable.

Being able to collapse the output of a command would be nice as well.

Skill issue. Pipe your output to something (like a file or the “less” command)

They should put controls on lathes and mills to prevent making guns. Metal guns are a lot more effective than plastic guns anyways. /s

The link provided doesn’t actually lead to a study or anything. It just leads to a website that repeats the same claim about dryer efficiency.

It’s the implication

From the website:

The truth is that [the] whole project is (most of the time) quite inaccurate and error-prone, and often involves way too little data to really make a judgment, despite my best efforts. It also involves my amateur method of “age-adjusting” the results to be comparable. So this whole project is quite inaccurate and shouldn’t be used for serious conclusions. But if you understand the inaccuracies involved, you still may find it interesting.

Cost of Disposable seems like a logical place to start pushing.

Landfill disposal rates (i.e., tipping fees) have remained exceptionally low in the U.S. relative to many other developed countries. Since tipping fees are typically the largest revenue streams for recycling processing facilities, this has hurt the business case to expand organics recycling infrastructure.

Don’t make it cheap to toss unsold food into the trash. Weigh and tax unsold food from grocery stores to give them a cost incentive to develop better methods of disposing unsold products.

I remember having a similar gut reaction to seeing images from Lower Decks. I ultimately enjoyed LD so I am going to give it the benefit of the doubt.

However, 😬.
