Regarding antisemitism in France:
I can't speak to it personally, but my mother's told me the story of the month she spent in high school, going to a French school in 1981. She didn't tell anybody she was Jewish, and the moment they found out, she was the victim of ridicule from the host family and the other students, the hosts complaining that they wanted to host a real American, not a Jew. Antisemitism in France, at least in the early 80's, was a real thing, and very well could have been by the time the Bogdanoffs entered the field, and the line of sight of Flato.

@stevehaire6324 I know it's been 2 weeks since you initially commented, but having lived in the USA my whole life and witnessing court matters myself I can answer all of these "holes":
1. The entire reason why it failed to plead insanity was because he wasn't insane, but unfortunately after being unable to make a functional defense there was no other option. That's his entire point; it was his only option, and it failed.
2. In the USA, some states have sentencing recommended by a jury, with the judge giving final say on what the sentence should be. They're present, of course, but they're not allowed to interrupt the judge, or else risk being held in contempt.
3. He's probably referring to the legal or probationary system finding a probation violation, or at least imagining one. Possible if he lives in a city or the south and is black, because USA. Somewhere in the process of trying him for the probation violation, they probably looked through the legal documents and the court proceedings in front of another judge where they might have been able to have a semi-fair shake at doing things properly, and he threw out the probation violation and got the charge expunged from his record.
4. As for double jeopardy: That only applies if you're deemed innocent, you're not allowed to be retried for the same charge in teh same circumstances, only for something else. It doesn't apply for times when you're found guilty, or appeals would not be a thing.
5. "Despite nothing a jury felt was illegal" yes, and he wan't ever allowed to say he was defending himself, so the obvious conclusion is guilt. During the sentencing hearings when they found out they provided a sentence that was effectively nothing, which shows that they went back on their initial decision once hearing all the evidence they didn't previously have.
Everything makes sense within the context of the USA legal system.

As anybody can say, no matter what goes on, no matter what you're pulled over for, they will generally find a reason to ticket you.
The best thing to do is to:
Look clueless, but doing your best to comply (this works in my case, since I'm 20 and look a little bit younger), and if they ask to search your car, let them, since I know I never have anything illegal in my car. That way, when it takes 15 minutes to do their job, they don't even bother to give you a ticket because you're completely clueless about the situation that they just pity you and let you go.

@Bialy_1 To best epitomise the difference between "Reliable" and "fixable", let's look at the 90's toyota. How often does stuff break? Rarely, if ever. If it does? Well, on the side of the road you could probably do everything short of a head gasket of an engine/transmission rebuild as long as you have the right 3 sockets and a wrench.
The Model T was built to be cheap, except for the choice in steel, reduce price as much as possible. "The car was known to drive and serve for many decades" yes, so is the VW beetle, there are millions of those around, but most examples have gone through at least 2 engine and a transaxle rebuild by now. Are they reliable? Hell no, but if your throttle cable snaps you can hook up a string to the carb and actuate it with your hand out the window.
When I say fix, I mean fix. The trembler coils which drove the ignition were accessible by undoing a single strap, the spark plugs were massive units where you could pull out the electrode, polish it up, then shove it back in there and keep driving. A downdraught carburetor was used because it was easier than using a good carburetor gasket. Before driving you always had to pull the oil drain plug to make sure there was enough in there to keep the transmission lubricated. People had to drive backwards for enough fuel pressure to get over hills and if there was any kind of collision your seat was the gas tank and you should consider yourself Johnny Storm, because you're gonna be on fire.
I won't disagree that the Model T was well designed, it absolutely was, it achieved its goals well, but well designed to meet its specific purpose doesn't mean it's reliable. It's not reliable, it wasn't built to be. Cars of that era were expensive not only because of the work that went into building it, but also the endless maintenance that had to go into making sure every day that you were in good shape to go for a drive, lubricating every joint on the car, checking the magnetos, oiling the dampers, etc. The Model T did away with that by making the car cheap enough to be disposable, and if it wasn't disposed of because it was so cheap it was cheap to buy more parts to replace where it failed.

"Not hard to find an attorney if you've got a good case"
I have to disagree with you there Steve. It's a bit of a niche situation, but a real one.
I know a guy, who to be honest, is morbidly obese. In the late 90's he hurt his knee, couldn't walk for a few months, blew up like a balloon.
A few years ago, he was having some issues, and was in rehab for one reason or another. Because of his long term high weight, he has issues with his kidneys, to the point where it's in his doctor's notes that he should never be given diuretics, because despite the large amount of water weight he's got stored up, the harm that it'll do to his kidneys would cause kidney failure. The rehab place? They saw his doctors notes, but they then ignored it and gave him the diuretics. After a week? Kidney failure. The doctor knew it would happen, he knew it would happen, everyone knew it would happen, but the rehab place chose to do it anyway.
He's got a slam dunk case for malpractice, but he can't find a single lawyer willing to take his case. He's going into bankruptcy because of the massive medical bills that were piled on as a result of this incident.

Around 5 minutes, the type of relationship you're referring to is called parasocial. From what I've seen among youtubers, it's really hard to strike a good balance to keep it from becoming weird. There's some cases where they try to make the viewer actively feel like their friend, causing a very unhealthy bond (such as minecraft youtuber Dream), others try too hard to separate themselves and end up whithering away at their popularity, by being actively hostile towards their community whenever they try to give input (such as Karl Smallwood of Fact Fiend fame).
You've struck a good balance, I think. The role the viewer plays is that, if they want, they can email you or write you letters informing you of news articles, sending presents, and you thank them, nothing else. You don't try too hard to be a friend, you don't try to distance yourself and burn bridges. Very professional, which I put down to your history as a radio host and attorney.
Rest in Peace, Normal Creller.

Because valve is privately owned, they aren't legally bound to try to squeeze every possible last but of profit from the consumers for the stake of their stock holders. The moment it goes public, if it does, the gates will be open.
Publicly held companies are legally bound to always increase their profits by any mean necessary, to avoid stock manipulation where they purposefully lower their value to make it easier for certain parties to profit in weird stock ways. Downside is that once it grows to its largest reasonable size, like patreon, Google, Netflix, and Apple, they start doing extremely anti-consumer things, because according to the law they have to do what they can to make more money.

I must disagree with your assessment of how the bulldozer architecture works. The reason why it ended up working as wonky hyperthreading is because the second ALU never ran at full speed, because Windows never allocated tasks to both FPU pipelines, only feeding one. It was treated as hyperthreading by windows, so that's how it ended up performing.
Awful single core is due to AMD's poor architectural choices, with low associativity and high latency.
Also; regarding the lawsuit, it was settled, and AMD didn't lose. All that means is that it was cheaper to give the payout than to continue onwards with the lawsuit. Honestly, AMD would have probably one. The core vs thread thing with ALU was a weak argument from an architectural standpoint, with most performance losses on that specific front being from software not treating the CPU to work optimally as it was designed. All functions of a CPU core can be emulated from an ALU, and they had 8 ALUs, therefore 8 cores. If the ALU didn't count as a core, then no CPU without an FPU could be considered a CPU (which is every CPU before the 486).

@esra9426 Great, so there are some standouts. Generally, the cars known for lasting several hundred thousand miles were built in the 90's, such as old dodge trucks, all toyotas and hondas of the era, ford sedans, etc etc.
Now a large amount of them burn oil, fry coils, have head gasket and overheating issues, transmission problems, have failed tensioners, etc etc, at a significantly higher rate than back then, amongst the noted marques.

If Greg's airplanes and Automobiles is to be believed, the F4U Corsair was not made a Goldwing just for the sake of the landing gear being shorter and feeling better, and accommodating the propeller. Fact was, in those days, telescopic landing gear was widely used on aircraft.
The reason why Gullwing was done, was twofold. First of all, protrusions from the airframe made at 90 degrees to the airframe reduce drag. Having the wing down allows the plane to have that 90 degree angle, while also having the wing be low slung for better handling. The added benefit, was that it allowed landing gear that was only a single piece so it was more reliable, an important factor in the Pacific theatre.
Overall, the main goal was aerodynamics. Short landing gear was a side benefit.
