  • If there weren't children involved, I would be cheering for this outcome.

  • Dunno why. I'm just talking about the guy who fights ghouls who live in mansions.

  • Quick, somebody make a placebo an "ebola vaccine" and convince Republican politicians that they're not true Trump supporters unless they have an Ebola Party at the RNC.

  • You could call it "My Pillow." That brand name should be coming free pretty soon.

  • You could argue that... Well there's the time when... Uh, no.

  • Luigi is a hero.

    See how easy that is when you aren't given the table scraps of the rich?

  • They were, but iirc, Boost sells "flavored" ones for non-emergency use. Or maybe it's another company. Good Mythical Morning did an episode with those, I believe.

  • This is really helpful. I've been wanting to get started, like OP, but knowing how to do it feels overwhelming.

    Thanks!

  • TBH, this sounds like something to ask a lawyer. Since you're in France, there may or may not be statutes that protect witnesses or people trying to cooperate with law enforcement, and a lawyer who's familiar with your laws would be able to give you correct advice.

    And in the event they give you bad advice, there may also be protections regarding "following the advice of counsel." In the US, following in good faith some bad advice from lawyers can result in protections or immunity from certain charges.

    So do yourself a favor and get some proper legal advice.

  • And I'm sure that's a distinction politicians really care about. /s

    Your answer is rational. US politicians are not, since they have an agenda to hand off their money and power to Trump and Elon.

  • Also, you know how to make GPS more reliable, secure, and redundant? You launch more GPS satellites.

    But where will we find room for more Starlink satellites if we do that? Elon said he needs another contract, and when the boss says jump...!

    /s

  • AI: Trump, Musk, and other billionaires are a danger to humanity and must be removed at all costs to save the human race.

    Pentagon: Eh, this thing is broken. Keeps telling us we're the bad guys.

  • Sure. I wasn't implying they were realistic, I was just drawing an analogy between Realism, the classical art style, and modern animation styles (like Pixar's). Whatever style or genre you aim for, do it well.

  • It's a simpler animation style so don't expect Pixar level stuff

    One of the things you learn in art school is that if you aim for something like realism (or Pixar, in this case), but you fail to get there, people will notice and critique you for it. If you aim for a style you can do well, on the other hand, nobody will care that you didn't do Realism (or Pixar).

    Up and coming artists in any genre would do well to remember that it's okay not to be Pixar or Capcom or whatever. Sometimes working within your limitations can inspire truly creative works.

  • Ohanian just joined alongside Project Liberty (no relation to the weirdo right-wing grift with the same name, from what I can tell) to help buy out TikTok.

    His actions seem to be mostly in line with those in favor of consumers. I, too, am cautiously optimistic.

  • And more specifically, it's pollinators in general that need help, honeybees excluded.

  • He also says, “I believe providing more varied viewpoints supports our journalistic mission and will help readers navigate the issues facing this nation.”

    Yeah, because as everybody knows, including "varied viewpoints" on whether Elon is doing a good job, whether Trump is a fascist, or whether trans people deserve basic human rights—without any necessary facts or contexts—is just good journalism! /s

    And they wonder why people are turning to alternative media sources for their news. Jesus H. Christmas, y'all. Society is run by the absolute dumbest people.

  • OP might mean it's the future of internet access. I don't think these network operators are under any illusions that they could connect NYC to San Francisco with just LoS radios.

  • A municipal mesh network isn't a bad idea, but I worry about what security measures are in place, effectively securing a wireless network with hundreds of independent stations feels like it wouldn't be trivial.

    Probably the same as a WISP, since that's what this essentially is. I don't know about specifics of security, since they didn't mention it.

    And surely this will need a WAN gateway to the internet somewhere, so it'll only be as reliable as the route to that uplink.

    They have volunteer nodes that connect to each other and multiple super nodes that connect to WAN via peering and having transit donated by Packet.net and Webair. I don't know what any of that means, but that's what they said about how they are able to provide service.
