Well yeah you have to fly this car.
Pretty much any kernel bug gets a CVE by default now, right?

I bet there exists data from the 3 cameras to represent some depth to the image.
Re:A Small Telescope That Surprised Me on Wednesday September 02, 2026 @03:55PM (#49541563)
I've never understood astrophotography. It's like taking pictures of the Mona Lisa with a Gameboy camera. Unlike real photography which is dynamic and ever changing, the night sky has remained the same since our ancestors first looked up.

Why not just download HD scans from the pros especially if you're going to "automate" the hobby portion of the field.

Can I just simulate the user interface a smart telescope uses and then just return Hubble photos after some artificial loading screen completes? Maybe toss in some whirring noises?

The proof is in the pudding. On a pure price-return basis without dividends, an investment in the Euro Stoxx 50 in 2000 sat at approximately 0% capital growth for nearly 25 years.

And then I'll switch to Apple's voice to text which is equally awful.

It still enjoys many government mandated monopolistic advantages.

See: American Letter Mail Company.

They are at least 6 months behind the other labs because they got a late start.
The UK, the EU, Japan, and Australia all have identical rules to this policy.

So you think being logged out of Google will keep you more anonymous than this Kagi Privacy Pass setup?
Slop article.
Nevada was able to get it banned. The casino pull is huge.

Virtue signaling is priceless.
Seriously. I recently switched to a minimal phone which has a physical keyboard. I was pretty stoked to have one again but then the space bar broke after a few weeks. The failure rendered the entire phone immediately useless just like that.

All house and senate GOP members voted "no" on ACA. Obamacare is a lot of things, but a "GOP healthcare plan" isn't one of those things.

The author lists Starlink at 100mb/s down but I'm consistently getting around 400mb/s these days with the high performance dish. He's got options.

Teslas always want the road to be as bright as possible for their self driving tech to work well.
Re:Two billion email addresses were exposed on Friday November 07, 2025 @02:21PM (#45849950)
Many spammers will strip the +xxxx out of the emails anyway to not reveal the source of their data so it doesn't matter too much really.
Airlines would pay them all personally if they were permitted.

Looks like they restored service.

Yep I prompt my AI to do that too.
