  • But there was a time when the system worked during the cold war, because it was tied to "national security" and the military. I just find it ironic that in a world that is so dependent on spatial products that interest seems to be taken so lightly when compared with the past.

  • Looks like outsourcing good management of public resources to "greed" to fix inefficiencies. Why is some greedy fuck with delusions of grandeur needed here?

    PS: ok, ok, you need an outsider asshole who is unafraid to go against installed parasites in the system to streamline processes...so...you end up with one giant parasite that interferes with elections and manipulates markets...:/

  • Can't they delay usual collection scanning for a day or a week in "blue" areas? I think that's the hack here, from what I understood. Especially if the postmaster general is loyal to tramp

  • Space used to be inspiring when it was the playground of scientists and engineers. What made it all vomit was the privatization of astronautics (and the associated place in our imaginations) to the worst possible assholes and their cult of personality.

  • Depends on your attack profile and what you're biting: do you want slash, stab or crush damage?

  • like this?

  • Dating and jobhunting are surprisingly similar, no? (and flathunting)

  • Vacuum is a perfect thermal insulator. The only real losses are radiative.

    Edit: From Stefan-Boltzmann: up to (not sure about emissivities, but could be down to 10% of this) 100kW for a black body of 1m diameter at 1000C.

  • It is not user experience, it is user manipulation. We are so so far beyond Stallman's warnings about enslavement through corporate software design.

  • It is a permission structure for MAGAs to recognize trump as one with the elites they love to hate. I think it's fine, for now to beat the immense cognitive dissonance of recognizing that you were completely wrong.

  • No, that is precisely the point. There is a line to be drawn over that continuum (e.g. you don't go to talks, town halls and lectures to be entertained and be kept hooked on cliffhangers). The fact that everyone is competing for attention these days and that communicators have to become entertainers is a different problem. Look at Marshall McLuhan, Neil Postman...and Habermas too.

  • Many journalists should feel called out by this.

  • Soo...like a general. How much does a general make?

  • At the rate resources are being invested in datacenters AI cities, humans won't ever be able to catch up with AI slop...meaning training data will be poisoned by slop too and make models eventually fail.

  • Well, at least the datahoarders can preserve some things when it all goes to shit...

  • Is that for a gallon? Laughs in 1.7...Euro/L (7.5$/gal)
