Very useful on the off chance that vampires are real. Otherwise… Less so.

Nice. Hope they can keep it up, even if the new oil drilling going on makes one sceptical. Of course while there is a demand for oil there’ll be a big incentive to drill, we really need to wean ourselves off the dead dino goop soon.

I mean, yeah. The splats are not made to be balanced between each other. The themes that each splat is about are wildly different as well.

It’s neat the mechanics allow cross play between the games though. The world would strangely feel smaller if they normalized the power scale across every game line.

Oh. Yeah most bands used by satellites are also regulated.

You can do this same attack on any antenna, noise can’t be protocolled away. Repeating both signal and noise is a downside to bent-pipe setups.

Input frequencies are regulated via band-pass filters.

Typically satellites have beams they turn on and off to service different areas, with one beam pointing towards the RAN that receives the data rather than just repeating a broadcast out to everywhere the satellite can theoretically reach. For mobile telecom backhaul via satellite it is standardized that the data should be encrypted for untrusted transport links so this seems to me like an issue of not following specs.

The fools! The cowards! We should take away their metal boxes!

Twin films I think that phenomena is called.

Here’s a few movies it might be: Donnie Darko, Frequency, the final cut,

I haven’t been actively job searching lately, but based on the recruiters cold contacting me about job offers I’d say no, I don’t recognize this at all.

Steam vr sucks. I got Monado working alright with a bunch of fiddling around, though I don’t use fbt so no idea how well that part works. I’m using an index btw.

Only unsolved issue I have is that I can’t get steam vr to update my base stations.

You could prove you had a link to a JPEG. Whether that link says you own it is up to interpretation.

Also I could upload that same image to another IPFS node and create a new link to that on the Blockchain.

Nfts were funny. Beyond the JPEG stupidity they were all just a solution that was so desperately searching for a problem to solve, and every time it turned out to be a massively more expensive way of doing things we can already do without nfts.

That they failed to predict our CO2 output would jump up to 35 billion tonnes a year is probably not their fault back when the Ford model T had just entered production a couple years ago.

Straight to jail I’m afraid.

Most hotels I’ve been to have milk and oat meal too, basically what I’d get an average day. Nah I’ve been fine with hotel breakfast even travelling for work, pretty much the same shit I eat at home and then some occasional candy like food like waffles and pancakes.

Couldn’t really find any sources, but honestly it sounds reasonable enough. Engines are way more specialized for their single mechanical task than our legs are.

Of course you also move around way, way more weight most of the time. The mass/payload ratio is way worse with cars than with bikes so the comparable thermal efficiency would need to be greater to make up for that.

Beyond being a curiosity it is a moot point anyways. Humans need exercise to be healthy, and as you said, there are other environmental factors like car construction, gas refinement, etc. That I imagine mostly favour bikes too.

Unionised software developer here. I think you’re more referring to just Americans.

The countries in the EU simply haven’t really needed to spend a whole lot. Most of what our military did for the past 20 years was uselessly fucking around in the middle East at the behest of the USA. Having a low military budget at this time made sense.

Times have changed though. The geopolitical landscape looks different. The US itself is a possible threat, having stated invasion of Greenland was not off the table. Russia is a threat and even if they can’t convincingly beat Ukraine they can be a massive pain in the ass and an existential threat to the Baltic countries if NATO collapses.

Yeah, we have to invest more in military. I don’t think things would have been massively different through most of the 2000s and 2010s even if the EU and the US weren’t close allies. Perhaps Russia would have been bolder earlier.

I think using your left signal if you’re leaving on the third exit of a four exit roundabout is actually standard practice in some countries. I saw people do this a lot in Norway for instance.

Security through obscurity is generally considered terrible practice in the cybersec community. It’s much better to actually find and fix the flaws than just put your head in the sand and hope no one notices the issues.

Exploits in games and the exploits used by hackers for various other purposes are very similar in nature if less often in effect.
