Oh weird. When I click the link from my client it goes to a 404, but if I copy/paste the url into my browser it works

404. Seems like it got removed…

URL includes /2009/05/ so I imagine May 2009.

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

Ah that’d make sense

Interesting that that works haha. In the end it’s still connecting to a USB C port.

Seems like an overblown statement, they just shaved their head :(

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.

Google Asia released a video about a physical Gboard product which made me remember it is basically the equivalent of April 1st there. But on the other hand, Nintendo released this on the Dutch language channel too, so I don’t know if this is real or not anymore…

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.

Honestly I was expecting it to be gross, but this is fine. Thank you for your service.

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.

And isUneven which just calls isEven and returns the opposite lmao

Having never used this software before, my guess would be your VPS provider is limiting the upload speed of the VPS. The data would be uploaded slowly to you, which means your download speed is limited as the client.

Meanwhile the upload speed is reported as being high enough, since the VPS can download your data at 50mbit/s, as this cap is higher.

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.
