I’ve always questioned this assumption. Doesn’t the factory do a burn-in test for the engine and drivetrain? I’d be shocked if they really were delivered without any basic bathtub-curve test performed.

By my understanding the answer according to Christian belief is no. Your body is restored to its fully capability when you enter the kingdom of heaven.

These types of views/takes honestly are not productive. Security is never 100%. If location-based blocking defeats 98% of the low hanging fruit threats, it is most likely worth it. You can then filter down your more costly countermeasures to the 2% of the remaining pie.
Similar reality exists regarding security through obscurity. Is it perfect? No; nothing is. But if the cost to even understand the system in play is very expensive, that alone is a deterrent to low-effort / drive-by attackers.

Yeah, it is called prison. I don't care if someone is "autistic" or "shit-head asshole". If you are a violent son of a bitch, I have a concrete cage with bars to house you in.

You're confusing quality with gross revenue. First thing that comes to my mind: Marvel movies gross an absolute shit ton of dollars, but the quality of the story is absolute dogshit. Yeah, she won't lose her job, but the quality of said movies lacks.

It’s really not that special in my eyes. It’s a miniature space shuttle, minus humans. The purpose is 100% classified but you can guess the usual suspects (advanced sensor testing, experimental payloads, testing space warfare / asset manipulation, etc).
I really doubt they have put humans inside of it, given that they have kept it up there for year-long plus periods over its lifetime.

Microwave and narrow focused point to point wifi is still definitely a thing in remote areas. Although with Starlink becoming very popular I wonder how long until new deployments decline.

You are historically accurate. For a long time there was a lot of fiber that physically hopped through Hawaii, but didn’t actually talk to any gear locally (switches/routers). It was just an optical landing/regen station.
These days I believe there is less “optical only regen” and more IP-connected links.

Most simple answer is you can cram N number of light streams via WDM (wave division multiplexing). You transmit N number of parallel streams on different wavelengths.
