> A rational company
I've never worked at a rational company. I'm not sure that's a thing.
One might argue (successfully, I'm not sure) that the influencer referral link program was a form of Ponzi scheme.
Volvo's Epic Split comes to mind.
I thought they used Starshield and not Starlink now? Doesn't USAF control that?
Three words: glue on pizza.
> Without billionaires you wouldn't have SpaceX, Starlink, Neuralink or FSD cars.
If that's your best argument, billionaires are in trouble.

I am not sure I'm OK with the fact that people like this are allowed to set the stage, much less roam free.
Something is wrong somewhere, because I've had ~15 of those and battery life is 16-20 months for me (I use Battery Notes in HA which keeps a timestamp since you last changed the battery so I have a pretty good view into battery life). I have not adjusted reporting thresholds/intervals in zigbee2mqtt.
They're really annoying to pair though, so I've replaced most of them with Sonoff SNZB-02P which runs a CR2477 battery and I expect the battery life to be at least 3 years; with some luck maybe 4? Not as slim however, but the built-in magnet makes up for it.
I really don't get this meme.
AAA batteries are terrible for most (not all) sensors because it makes the sensors enormous. Like the newer door/window contact sensors.
Coin cells aren't expensive, which people often claim. Maybe if you buy them 1 by 1 at the grocery store.
If you get the right sensors, battery life can be 2-3 years.
Like, IKEA's Zigbee water leak sensor (BADRING?) with 2 AAAs (1.2V; they don't like 1.5V) has a battery life of 9-12 months. My Aqara water leak sensors (CR2032) have been going strong for at least 3 years. They predate me starting to track it with Battery Notes and that has to be 3 years ago (and yeah I test their functionality every 6 months or so).
No human will read that though.
The US also has insane stuff, yes. Romex stapled to studs, impossible to change, fix or renovate without tearing up the walls.
Balloon framing itself isn't crazy though: look at Scandinavia (maybe excluding Norway since their electrical system is a bit... special) for the same type of home construction (Western Framing Construction or whatever it's called), but with in-wall conduit and star system like in continental Europe.
Cute optimism.
Attractive people: shipped off to Epstein islands
The rest: medical experiments, weapons testing and biomass
Cool, can I get my right Ctrl key back? Didn't find a solution to un-Copilot it for my HP laptop on Linux since its keyboard firmware immediately sends a keyup after 3 ms even when the key is held down.
Harsh but true. It's the same phenomenon as defending the BS 1363 power plug that needed an embedded fuse because their domestic postwar electrical wiring was Not Great -- to save on copper.
But we all do this with our own stanky poop.
If they truly, truly believed that, would they be speeding towards building it? If yes, that would make them truly insane, right? Not as in a quaint "off their rocker" but more "non compos mentis".
I think the missing word there might be "private", because there's also Esrange (for smaller satellites as of now).
Today, Opus talked about "rotation slabs" in relation to logging. (and not log rotation). I didn't even bother asking what that was supposed to mean and switched over to Sonnet.
Ah, another article doing the "oh this extremism thing is just because there's an election cycle; they don't really think like this" defense. Similar to how the western media did in the 30s.
But then we also have the "the democrats are mega extreme now and they want to destroy America and make Hasan Piker their God-Emperor" thing that the same media organization are pushing. Traditional US media is completely fucked and captured.
Fission reactors in multiple European countries had to shut down due to heatwaves. And in Scandinavia (Sweden), they are "routinely" stopped for scheduled and most importantly unscheduled maintenance.
But those don't have scary sounding German names, I guess.
> The choice matters.
Yeah this is where I stopped reading.
All these creatures need to be Jack Ma'd.
> Supporting a flip device with vertical folding would be a new form factor for GrapheneOS. The main use case for those is a tiny phone to use with one hand in the folded form factor.
So, I've been using flip phones now exclusively since the Samsung Z-Flip3 (and will never go back to slab phones unless the flip segment disappears), but I almost never use the outer screen. Maybe that is just me, but I have a feeling it's pretty common.
Railway dust contains quite a bit of PM2.5, PM10 and NOx.
Similar trivia with a Swedish connection: the original name of the Honda Fit/Jazz was Honda Fitta, but then they found out it's the Swedish word for "cunt" so that was a no-go.
> These pile of rocks were funded by Qatar and that money could’ve been used to build schools
Just so Israel would have had more schools to bomb.
Why stop at flying? Just go for teleportation.
Is anyone using it for that though? Or is it being used for double-tapping girl schools?
> Just buy unprocessed, basic food, fruit and veg.
I have the problem that I absolutely abhor most fruit and veg and would rather not eat anything (which you can do for a couple of days at most). It's hard to get full on onions and sundried tomatoes.
