Sure but that means a workaround for machines affected, but not needing correct dates could be to set their clocks to midnight Jan 1 1970 and have another 65 years to sort it out

Anyway, the biggest problem will be embedded systems, including many household and business smart devices. Several I have are definitely 32 bit machines and might use 32 bit time precise to the second. Some I don’t know. I have no idea what processor my TV uses

And as long as they get updated, it’ll be fine. Probably cheaper than Y2K. Note that medical and industrial control stuff generally doesn’t care about the date

On 32 bit computers

Do you have any 32 bit computers anymore? Any running important stuff that needs good dates?

You perhaps need to talk to people if you think people now have a high opinion of Elon Musk. His reputation has crashed since he bought Twitter

Now perhaps you’ll still hear space fans singing his praise, but the general position holds no respect for him

China has a problem. It isn’t good at finding the best people and putting them into science (or whatever else). Instead it gets the loyal people and gives them the best jobs, they then select people below them however they will

People then strive for recognition and advancement so scientific fraud is rife

This idea has been around for a while. Make government more efficient by putting a private enterprise person in charge

It never worked because the private enterprise person got efficiency by having a cool project or forceful personality in the private enterprise which let them pay their employees poorly. Or maybe they paid their employees well and had excellent success. But then they have government employees who are hard to fire, have highly specialist knowledge, aren’t in it for profit and so the private enterprise maverick is usually [worse than] useless

I don’t expect it to work this time either, especially as Musk is more interested in Tesla, SpaceX, and his other companies

You say that as if you would claim that Mr Trump is competent, despite his (presumably age related) mental problems and his complete lack of ability in doing politics

I listen to music on a new music radio station - the good new music really stands out

Most people just like the (better bits of) stuff they listened to when they were young

They need an enclosure

Sure, the North wanted consolidation. Of course the only reason the south seceded was because the federation said no more slaves

Many of the people in the North were as racist as the South, but the government was less so

America does supply the best racist symbols after WW2 era Germany

We need a checklist like there is for Russian warships

TOS security were red shirts. TNG rearranged the colours and made command red to try to kill the red shirt meme

When people talk about red shirts dying they are referring to the original series colour scheme

So my commute is on the order of 20km, and that’s quicker by bicycle than bus (on my specific bus route), and much cheaper than parking a car

As a bonus I can park my bike in the office basement parking, versus walking from the nearest bus stop, or parking a car and walking from however far away your budget allows

Sure, but that’s not VPN action, it’s routing or filtering

Where I live it costs $40 to drop a mattress off for recycling, and almost anyone who will sell you a mattress will take the old one away for about $40

Sure, but that’s not generally a thing the commercial VPNs offer, and I thought we were talking about commercial VPNs
