They learned from our local high-profile crooks that if you can delay proceeding for a couple years, the process ends.

Just fucking wild man

Yeah, we US Americans know. We’re despairing that our justice system has finally failed after decades of active undermining be the right wing to install unqualified and ideological judges instead of people interested in a rule of law.

The delay delay delay tactics mostly work here if you have the money and connections for it.

I’m hopefully that Romania actually uses this case to prove their nation has a functional legal system when it counts, especially with such a high profile case. These brothers publicly derided, insulted, ignored, and put down Romania to their millions of followers. Go get them and make them pay for crimes and the insults. Show us all that Romania will enforce the law when it counts because the US barely is.

You do realize that the US alt right propaganda channels like Fox News would salivate over this title, right? They’ll gladly use it to imply that Azov is in the United States for some crazy conspiracy theory reason.

They had to change their venting and airflow system for that building after it formed a cloud and rained inside. When your room can have weather systems, I feel you’ve entered a whole new category of ‘room’ by definition.

I got lucky at a conference. They got us a VIP tour of the Boeing Everett factory, which walked on the assembly floor. It was a phenomenal experience. The sheer scale of the operation, the size of the planes, and the detail work was astounding.

I did.

I was there 5 months before heading back to grad school.

I had one interview where they literally got me to fix their Sendmail server while I was there.

If you’re a professor with a doctorate in Germany, the official way to refer to you is Professor Doctor [last name]. If you hold two doctorates it’s Professor Doctor Doctor.

Professor is also a serious and registered title in Germany. You can’t just start a school and start handing out professorships without oversight and approval.

I’m in the “be prepared” group where we usually have a couple weeks of food and water around. We also have two forms of heat for when the power goes out.

Will we survive WW3 on this? No, but it has been very helpful after big winter storms that took out the city power.

Having some supplies to use in the short term is good for everyone. Being ready to go out to help neighbors and get the community back on its feet is how we get through to the next good times.

For a loose definition of “me” and more “my parents when I was young” was a mid-70’s Fiat. I have lots of memories where we waited in some parking lot or by the freeway for a tow truck or some other help to arrive.

Run as a right winger, especially an outright neo Nazi, in any EU or US country and they’ll ship a briefcase of cash to your door.

Nothing. Build it if you want, but parking minimums are anti-people and city decaying laws.

According to Fox News, President Obama is still president and so is Traitor Trump. Everyone is president, depending upon who is watching at the moment to stir up one kind of hatred or another.

I had a Pentium I 120 MHz Packard Hell machine. It came with Win95 OSR 1 and I loved that beast. I upgraded the disk (1.1 GB to 3.1GB!) and the RAM up to 40MB. The screen was a 13" fishbowl so I get a Sony Trinitron 15" screen eventually.

The combo modem/fax/sound ISA card wasn’t worth keeping, but I got a PCI Sound blaster as well as a 3Com 3c905 fast 10/100 Ethernet card. I had one of the best machines in the dorm for a while. Warcraft II played so very good.

The Linux support in RedHat 5.2, then through 6.2, and sometimes Mandrake, OpenBSD, and some other distros was great. As long as you set the IRQs in the bios right it worked like a dream.

It was quite early for me. I shouldn’t post when delirious.

That doesn’t make them correct. The strength of the belief has no bearing on reality unless it’s combined with evidence to warrant that belief.

It’s all about biblatex. I only write using Word/docx if they force me to for publication, otherwise I use LaTeX for typesetting. It’s vastly superior for serious publications, especially technical ones.

I use JabRef for managing my citation databases.

I did some work In a field with a total of 6 papers over 30 years. It was niche as all get out. Did my second paper cite the first? You betcha. I literally cited every research paper ever done on the topic, including mine.

Now there’s 7 papers on the topic.

The statements about how much people just have to have their cars parked everywhere because there’s not enough space for their cars so they need to take over everything for the cars is scary. Didn’t the city exist before cars were invented? Maybe there’s ways to live without the car at all times?

I turned down a professorship position at a uni in part because they used windows for the whole curriculum. It would have driven me crazy having to use windows given how annoying it is for dev work. I put value on my sanity and it wasn’t worth the modest pay bump to be driven batty every day.

I likely get to teach an IoT class next term. It’s going to be so much fun with SBC systems running Linux and Arduino sensor systems! That’s worth a ton to me.

It wasn’t fun, that’s for sure.
