I read the article but I'm still confused how this works.

My understanding is the herpes virus DNA is integrated into our own. So once the gene editing molecules snip at the herpes virus damaging it, how does the chromosome get put back together?

Is it actually sniping at two places in the herpes genome in a way that the two ends match up and reform while cutting out a section in the middle?

That doesn't really contradict their premise about making modern RTS. StarCraft and Age of Empires 2 are ancient at this point. An entire generation of kids has grown up since they came out.

I don't think the fact that you could make a successful mainstream RTS way back then really says much about whether you could make one in 2024.

What does all this mean?

The Rog Ally is a Windows machine. It doesn't really need a team to maintain compatibility or "mainline their source code".

When asked why the Times doesn't see its job as trying to "stop Trump," Kahn completely missed the point and said journalism's role is to provide "impartial information" rather than becoming a "propaganda arm."

That's pretty rich when you read any of the New York Times' coverage of countries that are America's geopolitical enemies. Their articles practically read like State Department press releases.

The problem with applying existing laws is then you're under the regime of rule of law, and TikTok could escape by complying with the law like anybody else.

This is a xenophobic witchhunt, though, and that won't do.

The place you're talking about isn't even open during the hours being discussed. Which is the entire point of this post.

Who cares who is being loud are they disturbing the non-existent regular patrons?

Revolutionary! They've done it again!

How can I pay?

From the article:

On the federal charges, Dedmon and Elward each face a maximum sentence of 120 years plus life in prison and $2.75 million in fines. Hartfield faces a possible sentence of 80 years and $1.5 million, McAlpin faces 90 years and $1.75 million, Middleton faces 80 years and $1.5 million, and Opdyke could be sentenced to 100 years with a $2 million fine.

Fortunately, doesn't seem like they're letting them off easy or anything.

I guess my original point was just agreeing with you on your main point. I figured I was supporting your position by pointing out the media dishonesty extended farther than just Israeli publications. The Ukraine point was a throwaway of another example I thought was fairly straightforward, but whatever, it's cool, we don't need to continue this conversation.

Hmm suit yourself.

It's a funny example of Gell-Mann amnesia at play I suppose.

Just waiting for that Russian military with low morale and hollowed out by corruption to bring us that imminent victory in Ukraine we've been promised any day now for the past two years. Keep believing in victory citizen, it's right around the corner!

Now, I literally do not trust anything that is published in Israel;

It's pretty stark how much the press in pretty much every Western country has been carrying water for Israel and Ukraine as well.

I'm blanking on this. What's the song?
