Taiwan is incentivized to keep the latest and greatest local, so they can hopefully get protection from the USA and Europe

Nope, only from GitHub at the moment

Global keyboard shortcuts are pretty nice. E.g. muting yourself without alt tabbing to your browser.

How the fuck is this a meme

Also note that 100km is the minimum height to be “in space”, not the minimum height for achieving orbit.

That doesn’t really mean anything. You could achieve an orbit at a lower altitude if you wanted to, it would decay faster, but you could do it. The 100km karman line is an arbitrary thing, there is no solid line where on one side you can orbit and on the other side you can’t.

I agree; the comment I was replying to seemed to imply that there was a minimum height requirement, or height by itself equaled orbit. But that’s just my interpretation of it.

Well this seems like a bad semantic argument to me.

Maybe it is, but personally I prefer to see the result 100% finished. I am very impressed by the booster catch, and the non-stop camera feed on Starship was awesome, but I would like to see a full mission before saying that they reached orbit. And to me, demonstrating capability usually means doing it.

So what you’re saying is that SpaceX deliberatly doesn’t let Starship orbit, to keep reentry predictable. Which is what Lichtblitz@discuss.tchncs.de said; they don’t actually orbit.

Also note that 100km is the minimum height to be “in space”, not the minimum height for achieving orbit.

Finally, I disagree with the note that having “enough fuel” to reach orbit means they have demonstrated such capability; I believe they easily could achieve this, but they haven’t actually demonstrated it yet.

All the pop ups to pwetty pwease upgrade?? And Office 365 saving to it as the default, rather than to local storage.

Twitter wasn’t profitable right? So most of the “value” is in the name of the product. Elon changed the name and added his signature to everything the platform was doing, completely changing the platform Twitter is. So yeah, I do get why 75% of the money is gone now.

He tried to back out, I don’t think any of this was about anything. He’s just a dick with a weird sense of humor.

If the heart stops working while the brain is healthy, you’ll still die.

Maybe provide some personal insight, instead of basically just posting an ad.

It appears they are suing OceanGate, the company that made the submarine. The use of cheap, consumer grade hardware for critical functions (literally controlling the sub) is one of their criticisms.

From what I’ve seen others post, he got silver because of his teammate. If his solo performance was used to score him, he’d’ve gotten gold.

Based on the article they are more expensive than li-ion batteries (for now), so probably not yet. And the article doesn’t mention anything about this, but I imagine there would be scaling issues.

Be the change you wish to see in the world!

I doubt it, there are some grammar mistakes in there I think. At least, it doesn’t look like the typical ChatGPT writing style.

The boot function should have some kind of randomization in it, so it only boots about 50% of the time. Either that, or include a random string in every download of the iso, so that only half of the downloads work.

very meme, much funny
