yeah, I'd love to see your list
It does not generate power to provide thrust; it generates power - using the airstream as the aircraft moves through the air - for the avionics and/or hydraulics.

I guess Steve Ballmer was right all along...
Magenta MAX is T-Mobile's unlimited data plan; $170/mo for 2 lines. 2 lines with unlimited data with Mint is ~$60/mo. You are paying $35/mo because you're only getting 5GB data. Check how much similar plans cost in India, Europe, Israel, UK (spoiler: they are drastically cheaper).

You are delusional if you think T-Mobile and the other big network providers offer good value for money.

Having recently switched to Mint after years of being swindled by T-Mobile, I'm really sad to see this news.

Nice work. I actually found your site thru Google by trying to find this HN post again. Out of curiosity, do you get a lot of paid subscribers? What do revenue figures look like for a project like this?

Re:Robotic Kitchen Automation Levels on Monday November 29, 2021 @07:26PM (#29387224)
Most people don't like to cook or don't care enough to do it themselves. The average household spends an inordinate amount on takeout and that figure will only grow [1]. One could argue 'dark kitchens' are dystopian... food prepared by chefs emulating the menus of restaurants with which they have no affiliation. This has become common in cities all over the world. Deliveroo's dark kitchen network started off using recycled shipping containers [2]. Those who have to prepare meals for multiple mouths (aka parents) eventually get burnt out by cooking.

I love cooking, but I don't see this as dystopic; the kitchen is ripe for technological revolution, and I welcome the democratization of good and (hopefully) healthy food.

I love how that's an obvious option for everyone else too! /s
because people have families, and parents can't just bounce on their children?
