It's not White House's Correspondents' Dinner. It's White House Correspondents' Dinner.

The Correspondents organize it. It's hosted in a Hilton hotel, not at the White house. The White House doesn't control it in any way. This is simply the press rolling over to appease the fascists because they are scared of losing access.

The best thing about Vim is that despite having all the features of a modern IDE it starts in 0.1s and you can start editing right away while the code data is loading asynchronously.

The worst thing about Vim is that... just kidding, there's nothing bad about it.

I also had them. The last one I bought turned out to be made for Indian market and had a firmware that was calling 112 every time you looked a it the wrong way. So yeah, it wasn't hard to find one on eBay but it was risky and there were no official distributors in my country any more.
The previous Android BB I had worked fine until the OS died of old age as Android used to do back then. I had no issues with the hardware or security.

I understand you had different experience with them than I did. For me it was the best phone with hardware keyboard at the moment and it worked fine.

‪Richard Goldberg: is an expert on Iran, worked in NSC as expert on Iran's nuclear program in first Trump's administration, wrote press release announcing Waltz's nomination, currently works for FDD (a pro-Israeli think tank).

Waltz: currently doesn't have an expert on Iran in NSC, also works for FDD.

Isn't it obvious? Waltz selected the wrong Goldberg.

They meant 'white citizens'.

You're right, they finished at 10.

I liked the Android phones. The hub was still nicely integrated, the hardware keyboard had good features. The main problem was that they were expensive and hard to get.

Reddit has proper moderation. As in actual people moderate it. It basically has a lot of content that was verified by 'experts'. And they do it for free.

In the age of bots, fake news and AI generated pages Reddit is a pretty good source of actual facts. Search engines lean on it more and more so it means there's bunch of money in it.

At least that was the plan. If people will stop moderating there because of politics it's worthless.

It's a sect. Most of they are willing to sacrifice for the greater good. Basically they can suffer for a couple of years as long as the immigrants will suffer even more.

No way they will bring BB 11 OS back. Android emulation is just not good enough and without it you would have 0 apps.

QNX was the real-time OS they sold for embedded devices. Modern BB phones used BB11 OS. It had Android emulation but obviously no play store or google services so they had to abandon it. Android BB phones were still great but obviously not enough people cared.

Is this a US thing? I had to install windows 11 in a VM like a month ago and I didn't have to create MS account or use any bypass scripts.

If you listen to the actual talk the bird they are talking about is an albatross and they are simply saying that to improve efficiency you need to make the wings longer and slimmer but then the plane will not fit in current aiport gates so they are working on folding wings.
