TCNs, or third country nationals. People from neither the US or locals.
From my understanding the reason why is the almighty dollar. They don't get paid nearly as much as our troops and contractors, but still a lot more than they would make at home. There is quite a bit of info about it if you do a quick search.
Also a cinnabon. And a coffee shop called green bean. And a pizza shop. And much more. Sometimes DFACs 1 and 4 gets old.
This is serious. If the USAF sets up shop anywhere we plan on having a presence for a while, there will be some amenities. Even if the base is bombed on a regular basis.
Beef is the biggest mass consumed culprit. I think mutten might be worse, but it isn't eaten nearly as much.
My point is, if you struggle to reduce meat consumption, just reducing beef consumption would make a big difference. Next time you are out, get a chicken sandwich instead of a burger. It's that simple.
I would think they would keep at least 1 of each model/trim of vehicle for testing these things. This leads me to believe one of the following:
Yes, Ubuntu 20 isn't EOL yet. A lot of those downloads are probably IT staff or developers that are running Ubuntu servers or developing on those versions.
ETA: We still have some RHEL 7 and clones at my day job
Churchill: Americans will do the right thing after they have tried everything else.
When do British monarchs do the right thing? You had your chance, Charles, to be a leader and do the right thing. You blew it. History will remember this moment in the way it remembers the cruel imperialism of your ancestors.
If we don't start turning things around rapidly, global warming is going to be saying to WW2: "You think YOU are the master of death, despair, suffering, and destruction? Hold my beer and watch this!"
It's really pretty simple. We have made it socially acceptable to do nothing and awkward to talk about it. Deniers need to be given the same response as someone making a racist comment or joke: "Not cool! The effects IPCC predicted as worst case, years ago, is happening! This almost getting to the point of flat earth!"
I'm not all in on prison abolitionism, but I think this is a good step in legal system reform. Most people in jail probably aren't much of a threat to society.
I disagree with him.
"Nobody that is intelligent AND cares about other people" is more accurate.
There are very intelligent people that deny it because they are old and enjoy doing things that exacerbate it. Other intelligent deniers are making tons of money and can afford to weather the problems.
Misinformation or disinformation? It sounds nit picky, but there is a huge difference.
Those spreading misinformation are simply mistaken and possibly swayed by good information.
Those spreading disinformation are deliberately trying to deceive people.
They get paid 274k...DC is expensive, but anyone that can't live very comfortably on that is awful with money. Being awful with money will lose you a TS clearance because it makes you susceptible to bribery by spies. I would think it would also be a disqualifier for a SCOTUS judge for the same reason.
I think maintaining a TS clearance should be a requirement for all positions above a certain level in the federal government. Not because they need access to TS information, but to ensure they are at a lower risk of bribery, adversarial interests, and criminal activity. Getting a TS clearance isn't terribly hard. Just generally have your act together. As long as you aren't a train wreck, a drug addict, a criminal, an untrustworthy asshat, or have connections to adversaries, you will pass adjudication. TLDR: A TS clearance would ensure high level government employees are minimumly functional humans.
