Trump does use Akzidenz Grotesk Bold Extended as one of his main campaign fonts


Apple allows other apps that allow people to notify and track crime, like the Neighborhood and Citizen apps.


ICE also has some bespoke face recognition app already


Even private written communications can be libel if they are false and injure the reputation of the subject.


Not as part of a mass hack where one could just argue it’s fake data.


It isn’t that straight forward. If you wrote it and it got published, it still counts as published even if you didn’t publish it yourself. The crux of libel is that you made it permanent somehow by writing it.


Who's to say you wrote it and that the hackers didn't just insert that in the dataset?


There are already commercial constellations on orbit doing EO and SAR: Planet Labs, Capella, IceEYE, Umbra, Maxar, and more.


Space is an AWS region, just like AWS has terrestrial regions. The AWS space region is named Pigeon.


Currently “space” as an AWS region is only ground stations communicating with satellites the customer owns, so nothing from AWS is actually in space. But with the way AWS allows customers to configure their network configurations, I expect there will be an option to communicate between AWS data centers using Kuiper for people who have a use case and care enough to pay for it. I expect it to be pretty niche, as most customers are fine with public fiber and Amazon’s own fiber, but I’ll bet they sell it to someone, like a remote AWS Outpost with Kuiper terminal on it for people that work in the field.


FOIA doesn't apply to the Executive Office of the President. The NSC is covered by the Presidential Records Act, but its records are not subject to FOIA requests.


SpaceX, ULA, and Blue Origin will all three be on Space Force's National Security Space Launch Phase III Lane 2 IDIQ.

Blue Origin won't replace ULA on that contract, but will compete head to head with SpaceX and ULA to win launch task orders.


I think the parent comment refers to ULA being on life support. The new contracts won't be as flush as the company was designed to need, and there won't be 3x launch cadence.

Here is a deeper history/analysis of ULA and how they were propped up by maintenance fees to retain launch capacity even when there were no payloads.

Having weak and moribund allies is not happy news for the United States.


If they were a puppet of the U.S. like you say, they wouldn't have been investing in and dependent on Russia in the first place. When Trump was President the first time and he chided them on their dependence on Russia and asked them to build a floating LNG terminal, they laughed.

The Germans are in the situation they're in because they did not take U.S. advice on the entirely predictable Russian bad behavior.


>If they were a puppet of the U.S. like you say, they wouldn't have been investing in and dependent on Russia in the first place

A poodle doesnt always behave. When it is slapped though, it falls into line.

>The Germans are in the situation they're in because they did not take U.S. advice

...and the US responded by destroying the poodle's energy infrastructure. Biden threatened to end it and it ended.

You think the poodle ought to be better behaved. I get what you're trying to say, dont worry. You have the same attitude Russians do towards Belarus when it "mis steps".


Germany destroyed its own energy infrastructure by shutting down all of its nuclear energy generation capacity.

The wartime destruction of Russia's coercive instrument is secondary to Germany's own self-inflicted wound.


I think once he started working out and getting strong, he looked less like an android and more like a human male. His politics may have shifted as a result of building muscle:

He was always athletic. I believe he was captain of the fencing team in high school.


He's also a pretty decent amateur runner, broke 20 minutes for 5k which is nothing to sneeze at, I'm still not able to do it after 1.5 years of training 4-6 days a week.


The bimbofication of society unironically has bad consequences for us all. I believe excess gym makes you less nerdy and more reactive, despite studies saying it 'makes you smarter'.


I'm far from a bodybuilder, but this is certainly . . . a take. Whatever happened to the ideal of a sound mind in a sound body? Why does our society have this stupid "jock/nerd" dichotomy where the smart can't be strong and the strong can't be smart?


As someone who enjoys lifting weights, I agree with you. However, I can easily imagine an argument based on all of the strange add-on effects you get from being immersed in "gym culture". Working out isn't just working out, it means you start getting fitness posts in your social media algorithms, surrounding yourself with a new group of people with potentially different views on masculinity, shilling supplements, etc.

Aka don't ignore the social side of fitness.


I learn what I can, apply it, and then try to run the hell away from the mostly online strength community at large. It’s a lot of drama, shilling, fragile egos, harmful advice, useless advice, mixed with some gems you can mine from it with some necessary filtering and vigilance. My local community on the other hand is amazing.
