The higher amperage rating is not really relevant - that just indicates the max current that the power supply can provide. If the device pulls less than that, it isn't a problem.

However, the polarity of the power supply is very relevant. If it's is the opposite of what the ZX81 needs, and you powered it up, then yes, you may have damaged something.

The polarity should be shown on the power supply - usually it's a diagram with three circles which illustrate which part of the connector is positive and which part is negative. There is often times one on the piece of equipment as well. Those diagrams need to match.

‘It’s That Simple’: Mark Meckler Says The Only Way To Secure The Border Is By Invading Mexico (www.rightwingwatch.org)

Mark Meckler is the president of the Convention of States Foundation and a leading proponent of the right-wing movement to get state legislatures to call for a dangerous Article V convention that will consider constitutional amendments to radically alter American government and society by making much of what the federal...

The War in Iraq lasted 8 years and cost over 1 trillion dollars.

So aside from the immense risk of starting a war with a nation right next door to you, ...aside from the fact that there would be no clear strategic objectives, it would also cost a fortune.

If the US wass really serious about supporting the Mexican government against the cartels, then they would start with increasing financial aid to said government. But these very same people would probably be against that idea.

I think it bears pointing out that both the UK and France have their own nuclear weapons and are ultimately not beholden to the US.

So encouraging Russian aggression with the implicit notion that the US wouldn't do anything in response to an attack actually makes nuclear war more likely because even if we didn't respond... they would still feel compelled to.

You might think that too if you had retractable razors on your hands.

Yea some of these are pretty cherry picked.

I mean "the Roman Empire" in the loosest term, from the beginning of Rome's expansion out of Italy, to the fall of Constantinople in the east, was over 1700 years.

And the Ottoman Empire was still very much alive and threatening Europe into the 18th century before they began their terminal decline.

It's Balance of Power, which came out in 1985. It was a geopolitical simulator where you either play as the USA or the USSR. The goal is to gain influence across the world by sending economic and military aid, fighting proxy wars, stuff like that. There was also a newer version that came out in I think 1990 which introduced some newer features and slightly better graphics.

Read the indictment. It says he specifically went behind his own lawyers' backs to remove the classified documents from where they were stored and moved them to his personal residence after they had already been subpoenaed. ...and then basically lied to his own lawyers. The prosecution is going to make the case that this was obstruction of justice.
