It’s ugly for sure, but I think the biggest barrier to entry is the shortcut keys. Blender’s Industry Standard mode makes it a lot easier for Maya users to switch. Something similar for Photoshop users would kill.

Good call. Put a fence on the land they bought to prevent Trump from putting a fence on the land.

New Orleans doesn’t have the voting power to do that. Orleans Parish was literally the only parish that went blue in that election.

They sued to get the rules changed because they said far more black students were being accepted than they thought deserving. They won. Now they’re upset because the number of Asian students declined after admissions could no longer see to the applicant’s race. Am I reading that right?

Yes. So far, the CHIPS Act has resulted in $6.6b in direct funding and an additional $5b in available loans for the AZ facility.

Perhaps unauthorized is a better word than counterfeit. The manufacturing process for CPUs often yields less than ideal chips. Perhaps they don’t hit the clock speed they’re supposed to, or maybe they consume too much power. Those chips are supposed to be discarded, but they often find their way to the black market. Sometimes those chips aren’t even failures. If a fab overproduces, they’re not just going to give Apple the extra chips. These are the things Apple worries about, and they view it as far less likely to happen if those chips are made in the US.

I should also point out that the CPU isn’t the only chip that TSMC makes for Apple. Apple wants to make sure they’re getting a cut of every replacement part that gets sold. You can’t even swap screens on two brand new iPhones without Apple giving you a hard time.

Apple wants to cut down on counterfeiting. The US wants to prevent supply chain issues and reduce reliance on foreign chip production. The wiki article on the CHIPS Act is a pretty good overview: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIPS_and_Science_Act

Because only one of them is actively serving as a US Senator for Ohio, the state in which the supposed migrant pet eating crisis is taking place. The other doesn’t have a job to resign from.

Well in the particular state in which she lived, New York, it is not public record.

The vast majority of states limit who has access to death certificates.

Cheap land and tax incentives to do so.

That’s not at all what the article says. These women went to the actual Four Women’s Health Services website, filled out a form, and were contacted by someone who didn’t work at Four Women’s to schedule an appointment elsewhere.

Well, one is a clinic and the other isn’t a licensed health care facility at all, so I think OP was expressing worry that the abortion clinic would be fined out of existence for HIPAA violations related to not properly securing patient data.

And here I was thinking that Cruz was famous for eating a booger in the middle of a debate.

Must be nice. I can’t remember the last time I drove across Louisiana and didn’t get pulled over in some podunk town whose only source of income is speeding tickets. We’ve had digital IDs here for years, and I can’t help but think that getting people to handover an unlocked phone is exactly the point.

When has a cop ever approached your car with an NFC reader?

Discussion from when this was posted yesterday: https://lemmy.world/post/19055957

I’ve never understood the appeal of digital driver’s licenses. If I get pulled over, there’s no fucking way I’m unlocking my phone and handing it to a cop.
