The part that annoys me the most, is people will doom about huge swaths of humanity dying in the future due to climate change, then bemoan and rage against building nuclear plants today, thus solving solving a huge portion of the issue.
I just do not understand people’s priorities, or if they really believe everything they say.
B&H is a solid source for computer parts.
Yep, compression can do wonders. Let’s say a piece of data is 1010110010110101 repeating 10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10^10 times in a row. (No I didn’t screw up my notation there, that is just a massive number)
You cannot fit that piece of data on a hard drive uncompressed, yet I just communicated it to you in a compressed format and you can view the data accurately at any position.
Edit: That number in an easier to read format:
a self-guidance mechanism that can be turned on at the final approach to when signal can fail due to proximity to the ground
I believe this is exactly what we are seeing.
There is a crosshair that stays centered in frame at the start of each clip. Then a bounding box and smaller crosshairs appear around the target. This bounding box stays on the target, even as the frame moves around. This appears to be when the lock on occurs, which is almost certainly manually triggered as it occurred all three times when the target was in the crosshairs.
At this point, the self-guided part is enabled and the drone does the rest of the approach to the target by itself.
Seeing as one of the disadvantages of drones is that they’re relatively slow, this could massively multiply the amount of damage a single pilot can do!
Absolutely! All those things your mention are well within the capability of tech that is cheap enough to put on small, disposable drones.
Do it!
Are you asking why the USSR didn’t send a missile to blow up the US moon lander on the moon? What purpose would that serve?
Are you asking why we haven’t found intelligent species on other planets currently involved in a war? Well, we haven’t found intelligent species on other planets yet at all.
You can often get such assistance if you are poor. If you aren’t, it’s expected you or your parents will cover basic costs.
This was, unironically, one of the largest things the US was doing for Ukraine.
Edit: Europe needs to step up their game. If we aren’t seeing European AWACS over the Black Sea by tomorrow, they are fucking up, hard.
O, damnit. Not the last bastion of hope!
Edit: 100% serious. Like Rossmann, Brother was the go-to brand.
human and civil rights aren’t “politics”
You will agree that human and civil rights, such as the right to keep and bear arms, is not politics? If you disagree, why is your preferred civil rights not politics, but other’s preferred human and civil rights are?
I think they mean profits are 545% of costs. Which would put revenue at 645% of costs.
Profit margin = (revenue - costs)/revenue = 545/645 = 84.5% profit margin.
So, yeah, headline is obtuse as hell and profit margins that high are either deliberately lies or grossly exploitative and uncompetitive.
If you have a question, ask it. Don’t fish for people’s personal info.
Well, they certainly didn’t help by running a candidate that got destroyed in the only primary she ran in. I’m hoping they will step up and run some solid candidates next round. It’s fucking embarrassing they lost to Trump…twice.
Solar panels on the roof and hood of a car are dubiously useful. This car has panels on the sides of the doors? Those are going to get but a fraction of the light the roof ones will. This just looks like someone tried to shove as many on as possible with zero thought into the efficacy of the idea.
Alternative: Submit resumes directly to companies you are interested in and/or use a recruiter. The latter is surprisingly nice. Last time I used one I got lined up for phone interviews with little effort and the recruiter pushed the company forward during the hiring pipeline when the company was being wishy-washy.
The recruiter only gets full payment if you get hired and stay at your job for a full year. (And this payment does not come from you!)
Absolutely. Wind, solar, nuclear, grid-scale storage, and geothermal should all be invested and built up together. With stakes as high as they are, no one horse should be our only bet. And these all scale differently in different geographies, making each of them the best choice based on local conditions.
