Yeah, or the US just invades Yemen with global support, triggering the regional crisis Iran wanted.

None of the regional powers actually care about Palestine outside of using it as a convenient political excuse.

What if the turbines are hooked up to an electric milling machine ?

Unless the board is just lying, it sounds like they got everything that they were asking for?

If that's the case, how is it a bad move?

Don't worry, he'll upset Putin soon enough.

Another way to rank them how other states have first/second/third degree felonies.

Kind of like how burglary is a bad, but not as bad as murder or rape.

They aren't exactly writing checks and sending it Kyiv.

They're sending stuff we already have. Ammo, tanks, etc.

It should be phrased as "Joe asks mom it it's cool to give Volodymir, his friend down the way, his old iPhone, and then go buy a new iPhone 15 Max, which has sick BVR capabilities and stealth, from LockMart."

You can hardly blame that just on Gates. Every moron in the government has been pushing standardized tests as some way of grading teachers and schools for decades at this point, and this program coincided with Obama's equally disastrous and very similar federal program. Which was an improvement over Bush's even more disastrous program.

Especially when you realize Gate's program was of limited scope while Dubbya/Obama/Trump's DOE's fuckups covered the entire country for a far longer period of time.

I got one, but got rid of it after the screen cover plastic became rigid and creaky...twice. Worse, Samsung said they'd cover it once under warranty, and that after their ubreak ifix people were telling me it'd cost $200 to fix and I had to explain I had a protection plan to the braindead tech ten times.

Not worth it until they solve durability issues.

Insurance would have to prove the modification caused the accident by disabiling some safety mechanism.

Legally, software mods and hardware mods are no different, and people have been modifying their cars well before you could hack a seat heater on.

Modifying your car isn't a valid reason to yank coverage in most circumstances.

Even making your car faster isn't enough, assuming your mods are street legal.

BMWs have had this, to some extent, for a while. Bimmercode can do things like change sounds and enable software disabled features, like anti dazzle lights. (This is disabled because the NHTSA refuses to adopt ways for them to be easily tested in the US, despite their being approved for decades in Europe and a congressional mandate telling them to allow them on the roads, so every automaker has to disable them.)

No exploits needed.

It's also really stupid because the idea is to create a system that's better than humans. And let me tell you, people miss stuff all the time when driving. Tons and tons of accidents are caused by "negligent" drivers who looked both ways and missed someone due to a visual processing error or literally not being able to see something.

Yeah. GM's subscription nonsense is for their ice cars too. BMW's aborted seat heater thing was too.
