He can't be president, and I don't see him interested in any other position.

Agreed. But you don't have to go that far to make rain and snow transparent. And radar might not be a bad idea to have on self driving cars, as long as it's not the only thing.

LiDAR can be done with different wavelengths. It should be possible to make one that can see through rain and snow.

Anyone bitten by ~~a wild~~ an animal should be treated for rabies. To wait for the animal to be tested, quickly or slowly, is just foolish. This animal could have been quarantined and observed without any danger to the bite victim.

edit: the animal needn't be wild, just as this one was not.

I mean, Kamala runs the senate. They really don't have any option to try the same scheme again. I do worry though, what new tricks they might try.

The disorder can only increase, just like your toys on the living room floor.

His disdain for NASA's caution is obvious.

What a dumbass. If we send people in the quickest possible way (or any way at all, really) and they all die in the attempt, that will set the whole project back decades.

The answer to the radiation problem is better shielding, not a fundamentally unsafe mission.

btw it is not the nuclear propulsion that I'm calling unsafe. It is the idea that we could do without redundancy. That's just a monumentally stupid idea.

It would be like calling FEMA 'democrat run' when talking about the latest hurricane recovery efforts. It is literally true, but it is not relevant. To add it would only serve an editorial purpose, not a factual one.

Your typo makes it sound like they're doing something terribly cute!

I truly hate that phones don't readily have file browsers and folders, and when you do add them, they aren't effective. Mostly that would be useful when moving files between phone and computer. It's not simple even to get the computer to mount the phone's drive, probably because everyone is fine with having all their files "in the cloud."

I could be mistaken on this: don't they get just one try?

 

Thanks so much to all of you for creating this community and for bringing it to the fediverse!

And oh yeah, Ahrrrr!

 

My instance has downvoting enabled, but I've learned that some other instances do not. Do the vote totals look different to users on different instances? It seems like some users on instances that don't allow downvoting are unaware that it's not the same lemmy-wide. It would be pretty confusing for them to see their vote go down.

 

It was in the last place I looked.
