If you read/heard The Martian, it’s similarly themed and detailed. If you haven’t, then what are you doing! You need to go read the martian.

Project Hail Mary was fucking excellent!

Tell that to people running a 1080Ti or 1660. They can’t have dlss but fsr works great for all.

My cat let me not only grab her paw like that but also to trim the biscuit knives.

It’s sad they chose his name over Henry Coanda, Sikorsky, Frank Whittle or even Wernher von Braun.

Sick burn yo

I can’t help but think “was this guy president of a major superpower for 4 years?!” Almost every single time I see any of his videos.

Looks like the TCAS system has been doing a fine job, which it was designed to do.

For those who don’t know, there is a system onboard every modern airliner that has one job: detect planes at (roughly) same altitude, heading towards each other. It then very clearly tells one plane to pull up while telling the other to dive.

Pilots are instructed to follow TCAS above anything else they might hear from controller or captain.

TCAS is why we have nearly no mid air collisions, especially considering the amount of planes sharing the same crowded space near airports.

By that logic, Russia could launch it’s nukes on Poland, gift them mid flight to Poland and then ask why is the country bombing itself?

It’s a good thing global defense strategies aren’t made by 10 year olds.

Max dating age limit for 18yo is 22? That doesn’t sound right at all.

The part about hacking Galaxy S8 keys by looking at a speaker connected to same usb… I think it’s very far fetched.

S8 has a battery that is constantly charged by usb cable. When you unlock the phone, power draw doesn’t change except maybe for a brief second when key is entered.

Try voyager, it allows zoom in and out without issues. https://vger.app/settings/install

This could very well indicate resentment of Twitter employees, they were told to change name to X, they tried and it didn’t work, so they did nothing else.

Perfect example of notmyjob.

I love 70% dark chocolate, often with mint, caramel or sea salt. Those are the best, better than milk and white.

Reading? No. But listing to The Witcher Season of Storm. Also starting on Quantum Earth series by Dennis Taylor.

Ex force books are a blast. Characters are excellently presented and story never gets boring. There are some parts that feel like filler but that’s unavoidable with 15 book series.

4th book was a huge let down. Dragged on and on about really nothing.

As someone who works in rail infrastructure management, answer is yes, roads are cheaper than railway network. Hell yes actually, by a factor of at least 10 for electrified railway. A poorly maintained road is uncomfortable and you might damage your car, a poorly maintained railway means derailment and fatalities.

Works for cities, doesn’t work outside cities or for small countries.

When I first encountered the .gif, I read it as G-I-F, as in jee aye ef. From there it was a jiffy to pronounce it as jif.
