That's interesting I actually didn't read it this way. I could be wrong of course but I didn't really think op was implying guilt or innocence on Russias part. Just more a statement of what's happening. EU is seizing ships, and they probably do think US will back them, maybe not so much recently haha. Don't think op was making a moral judgement on whether that's right or wrong.

I'm a novice when it comes to this, so apologies for the dumb question. Can you explain how you manage the taro plant? Like how can it grow in a pot completely submerged then be brought inside? Can taro be both grown partially submerged and out of water? Thanks for the info.
Re:HP LaserJet Tank – Refillable laser printer

yeah, I had an older rpi and I did that for a bit, but I couldn't get scanning work on it well or the way I wanted, plus the older PI was super slow. I'll probably revisit this in the future. However this whole thread had me track down some drivers for the printer and now it works. Seems like what HP now does on their site when you select windows 10 or 11 or even 7, is just say, windows update has the driver, you're good. However, if it's not "officially" approved by MSFT then its not in the windows update as is the case with this printer. So I found some raw bundle of drivers, extracted them and windows was able to manually locate the driver file. I just want HP to host that file so that I know it's trustworthy, and honestly, why shouldn't they host their own driver files?

I have an HP deskjet f4210 and it doesn't work with windows 11 at all. Gave my wife a new laptop with windows 11 and there are exactly 0 drives anywhere to be found for it. Can't even re-use windows 10 drivers. However, they will run you through about 5 different tools and HP accounts and personal information gathering while trying to "find" drivers for it. Sure, I get it, super old printer, but it works just fine for what we need it for, why upgrade just cause we are using a new OS?

on my carbon x1 I had to use fwupdmgr to update the Prometheus fingerprint device firmware. Additionally the firmware that was "current" in the repo didn't work and I had to allow using the beta or experimental version. can't remember exactly the steps I took to enable the beta firmware, this was almost 2 years ago as well, so it could be that that version is the now the correct latest version in the repo. after that I just installed fprintd and followed those instructions. But for sure it didn't work for me until I updated the firmware. good luck.

Agreed, the k8 operator is terrible. I deployed it at version like .4 and there is 0 upgrade path to the current version. I'm stuck with basically doing a completely new deployment and migrating all of the data from the buckets, ACLs, users, etc.

This interestingly made me think, I wonder if there is the opposite of this. Capture those signals to a capture card to avoid HDCP or the likes. I realize there are HDCP splitter/strippers but maybe one day those don't work, who knows.

I'm actually not asking this tongue and cheek but do fuel cells weigh significantly less when they are empty? I would think that a hydrogen fuel cell would functionally weigh the same empty or full, so itd be the same issue as batteries, no?

yes, I spent some time on google trying to find the article but I guess my googlefoo is failing me today. However I do remember it was the autoland system developed by McDonnell Douglas on the MD-11. They had to add some small randomization to keep if from always touching down on the same part of the pavement all the time.

sure but these aren't really weather balloons. the last two are basically tethered dirigibles. the first one is the closest and it's more like what project loon is doing. Yes, it's true, balloons can stay up for long periods of time, but this is not how weather balloons are made or what they are designed for. Weather balloons are designed to pop at a specific pressure and fall. As the balloon rises, the volume of gas expands due to there being less atmospheric pressure. At a point the balloon pops and it falls back to earth. The loon and the balloon in your first link probably use a system that adjusts the pressure in the balloon by compressing it into a storage container. This allows it to "hold" an altitude and keep the balloon from ascending until it bursts. Also, at least in loon's case, it uses a different material than a standard weather balloon. This probably also plays a roll in it's expandability, resistance to long term UV and keeping itself from popping.
