It is always sad when a so-called “news” organization gets so much wrong. Swift never had any thrusters for maneuvering and the shut off of Swift has no bearing on being unable to deorbit Swift in a controlled manner. That was never possible.

The Switch is also 30%. Unless you contend no console will be successful.

And forgot their PIN/password? That Apple forces you to use every 8 days or so?

Seems like pretty good for TV backlighting?

That is not true for Ring.

Are there a lot of homes that have 125 year old oil heating? Or have they been replaced along with way with more efficient oil furnaces?

Is there an induction oven that is more efficient than a gas oven?

Solar’s payback time is poor, and comes close to lifetimes, leaving not much time for pure profit. Plus grid rules are bad and often hostile to individual solar, further breaking the economic model. And few have the extra income to spend on such long term returns.

This seems particularly stupid. Didn’t finish.

Not sure they were wrong, just gave up on it too soon.

It then goes on to contradict itself immediately, stating the original hardware included a 1200 baud modem - so which was it?

Paywalled.

I’ve used WineVDM (otvdm) to run my Fluke 16-bit application to talk to my VR101 Voltage Event Recorder on 64-bit Windows for a few years now.

It plugs into an outlet, records time stamped records of high/low voltage, power outage, surges, etc. Then you use a serial to optical cable to read the data safely.

Why not? If I discovered a law of physics that explains superconductivity and could use it to make a room temperature superconductor and kept it a trade secret?

Kuhn?

How did you read the novel if it wasn’t published?

It shouldn’t be a fixed age, that’s the mistake too many laws make already is not accounting for change. What happens when i. the future the average lifespan is 200 years? It should be something like no older than 75% of the average lifespan.

The second part says you can only be elected once in that case, so you do “run afoul of the rule”.

Sometimes hard things are hard.

And the same search would find them easily regardless of period.

I would say WinForms in C# is still the best today.

So instead you are creating a bad UI for all of your users. That’s very Java application (or perhaps Electron these days) of you, but seems like a poor trade-off to me.

The early Mac made huge functional improvements over the Smalltalk GUI, improvements still used today.

Citizens do, why should a government employee be given free reign to do illegal things?

Apple also fought the FBI in court to prevent complying with a similar request.

Voter lottery? Make it like jury duty.

Can you list any of those limitations?

How is that working out in the US?

Fortunately the government can’t just steal everyone’s net worth.

What countries has France attacked recently?
