  • I would say that rule should only apply to purposefully taking something for an unfair advantage to juke the competition, like most steroids.

    For the ones where the only reported reasoning is being harmful to the user or has a potential for abuse, I would say the decision be on a case by case basis.

    My reasoning is that there are also people who’ve turned their lives around and quit the substances in question. Being banned when you are fully “legit” would be extremely demotivational and can increase relapsing. It could also be controversial to one of the ideals of the Olympics; overcoming adversity to be the best you can be.











  • Only systems running CloudStrike were affected, but all systems were Windows-based as that is the only OS it works with.

    I think it’s more touching on the vulnerability of infrastructure if a larger portion is run by only one OS. Something a lot of usb here may realize, but the general public has never really understood it. Where a scenario like this or similar can can cause a wide-spread blackout, all from a single bug; be it from popular software, or the OS itself.

    CNN just aired the presidential debate about 5 hours ago.

    Here’s a shortened version. (You’ll understand the level of despair within the first five minutes.)

    TLDW: Trump lying and ignoring the question to try to slander Biden like a 10y/o trying to displace blame after getting caught bullying. Biden was was talking like someone with the grogginess just getting woken up in the middle of the night then smoking a joint right before coming on. (i.e. We’re fucked either way.)
