I thought it was called Union Station. The closest light rail station is in Steel Plaza. Apparently there used to be a light rail station near Union Station, and the light rail station was called Penn Station, but it closed like five years ago.
Does the light rail even make it to the Amtrak station? Last time I was in Pittsburgh I had to walk almost a mile down Grant to catch it. This map seems more aspirational than existent.
There’s adapters that allow charging at the same time. I’m not sure why audio jacks are difficult to waterproof. Samsung managed it on a few models, so it’s certainly possible.
Personally I haven’t had a situation where I wanted an audio jack in years, I assume the extra internal space goes towards things like longer battery life or slimmer form factors; not nothing, but also probably not a big deal for most people.
It seems like laptops are doing the same thing: all external ports are USB, and any specific needs get handled with dongles.
USB-C ports are pretty flexible, you can split one into many, use them for video & audio, use them for power delivery & networking, and they can transfer more data per second than cat5. It seems like manufacturers are trying to make it the one port to rule them all.
I really can’t say for sure. It rains a lot where I live, so water proofing is a pretty big boon for me. I used to carry around a USB-C to headphone port adapter, but I never used it.
That makes me wonder how the Zune pulled of having a pretty solid and clear radio without an antenna. Must have had one wrapped around the inner casing or something.
I think most USB-C ports have sensors that allow them to turn off when wet. I’m not sure what the challenges are doing something like that with the headphone jack.
Waterproofing is very difficult with a headphone jack. You’ll notice virtually every single phone with a headphone jack is ‘splash resistant’ while many without are able to survive being submerged. It also saves a relatively large amount of internal space, for something that easy to move external with an adapter.
If we’re talking about adding back in older communication standards, I would personally prefer an am/fm receiver and IR blaster; it would be cool to use my phone like a universal remote.
The only things that are holding me on Mac are the specific features I’ve mentioned.
Isn’t that the vendor lock part?
Yes, Islam and Christianity both have a penchant for holy wars.
There are many large organizations that don’t put so much effort into shielding abusers.
Anyone who called out the evils of the Nazi regime was persecuted, including atheists who were often labeled ‘Russian supporters’ due to their lack of faith. ‘Godless’ communists were the first targets of Nazism.
I think most modern anti-theists aren’t interested in forcibly converting anyone, they see the rise of atheism as inevitable. They want to remove religion from schools and public life, stop posting the ten commandments everywhere, stop putting ‘god’ on money, etc. at least that’s what I hear about.
I don’t think anti-theists need to be advocates of forcing people to stop being religious, they can simply be opposed to theism. Like I’m opposed to the smoking of tobacco, but I’m not interested in prohibiting it, I just think it’s unhealthy and the world would be a better place if there was less of it. I think that’s how many anti-theists feel about religion. At least that’s the impression that I get from talking with them.
That was the aim of some crusades, there were also the northern crusades which had the goal of slaying pagans and forcibly converting people to Christianity. Obviously not all war comes from religion, but Christianity does seem to have a penchant for interfaith violence.
Not only have there been an out sized number of sex abuse scandals involving christian churches (most prominently the Catholic church) there’s been a clear pattern of retaliation, cover-ups, and defense of abusers. When there’s a scandal in a public school, the offender is fired and indicted. The church has routinely shielded offending priests, shuffling them around to avoid accountability.
Nazi Germany was theistic, 98.5% of Nazis were Christians. Their belt buckles had “God is with us” inscribed on them. There has been more violence waged against theists by other theists than by anti-theists. Interfaith wars, sectarian violence, pogroms, inquisitions, forced conversions, over a thousand years of history shows clear patterns of religious violence. The USSR was anti-theistic (at least originally), and their persecution of religious people was wrong, but pretending that every anti-theist supports violent purges of the faithful is absurd. I am not an anti-theist, but I have friends who are, and they just want to be left alone.
She can’t end all weapon supplies to Israel, she’s the vice president.
Even Biden couldn’t do it, he paused shipments and Congress passed a bill forcing them to resume. The power of the president is limited, especially when a super majority of Congress are firmly committed to sending weapons to Israel.
Harris is working to end the genocide right now. She’s fighting for a permanent ceasefire and two state solution. That might not be your preferred way to resolve the conflict, but it would stop the carnage and give Palestine more leverage to negotiate on the world stage.
How is it misrepresented?
The Global Health Security and Biodefense unit — responsible for pandemic preparedness — was established in 2015 by Barack Obama.
In May 2018, the team was disbanded and its head Timothy Ziemer, top White House official for leading U.S. response against a pandemic, left the Trump administration.
Republicans have claimed it was ‘streamlining’ as opposed to elimination, since some members of the team were reassigned to other roles related to pandemic response, but the team was disbanded under the trump administration, that’s just a fact.
Those dang anti-theists, with all their crusades, and inquisitions, and molestation scandals. At least when theists isolate you from your friends and family for being gay, or leaving an abusive relationship, it’s done in the name of God. What’s the anti-theists excuse?
The Addams Family, the black and white show from the 60s. It’s actually pretty great.
Look at me, I am your database now.
Only 10% of bank robberies fail, and 80% of stolen bank money is never recovered.
And if you don’t get caught you can use the money for food, housing and healthcare.
There’s evidence, but I don’t know enough of the science to tell how conclusive it is: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7139786/#:~:text=Regarding grey matter%2C the main,the anterior hypothalamus (INAH3).
