Well, to get humans to space today you have either the crew dragon on a SpaceX falcon 9, or a Soyouz.
And relations with Russia are a bit tense nowadays, so if you are not Russian, there are currently no other options than SpaceX.
Kinda looks like a monopoly, with another actor starting to compete (and SpaceX is historically very competitive on prices, so without huge government subsidies, I doubt Boeing would consider maintaining their crewed vehicle)
Gave a presentation last year, using a joy con as a remote for switching slides.
Nice thing is you can have mouse with the joystick as well
I’ll explain as if your first language is not English.
Dry means something that has no moisture in it, like sand can be dry or wet.
Obviously something dry contains no moisture or liquids.
A Martini is a cocktail, mixed from mostly gin and vermouth. In this context, dry means “little vermouth”, so the taste of the gin is most prevalent.
So the joke is between the two different meanings of the word, as obviously a dry cocktail makes no sense if you take the first meaning of the word.
I’m very sad they are closing shop, but I understand it.
I find their last DLC awfully expensive, but I think I’ll buy them anyway, as I really loved all their games (bought desperados 3 day 1, same for shadow gambit, and no regrets).
Their games were crafted with love, and it shows. If you haven’t, go and try them on, it’s a fun genre.
I started playing because I had nostalgia for the commandos games, but they really refined the gameplay and made the different difficulty modes so everyone can have fun.
I highly recommend it, its a very good game.
Have you ever tried storing a string in an INTEGER column ?
Due to a bug it happened in a software I worked on.
SQLite just stores the string. I have no idea if the column type has any real effect on storage as far as SQLite is concerned.
I have a old gaming laptop that is not supported.
Intel i7-7820HK, 4cores 8 threads 2.9Ghz.
Released in 2017.
That’s not old-arse as far as I’m concerned, and I don’t see the need for an upgrade. I’m going to install Linux on this PC because I have the know-how and desire to check out how electron fares. But I can see how that is not an option for everyone.
I don’t think it goes with the vibe of the game, it would disrupt the factory too much
They hint that the drilling awakens something, so I’m guessing different enemy
Yes, and Red Alert 2 as well (since it runs on the same-ish engine).
I’ve been hoping for this since the release of the remastered versions of the original C&C and Red Alert.
I really hoped we wouldn’t be as close minded as on Reddit.
Nuclear, like anything, has advantages and drawbacks.
The question is: are those advantages overcoming the drawbacks ? (This is obviously an oversimplification, as there are lots of questions, even nested within this simple one, like “will the advantages overcome the drawbacks for the lifetime of this project?”
Factorio is one of the very few games that has a demo though.
The free demo allows you to figure out if you enjoy the mechanics of the game, and if you don’t, you do not end up with more bloat in your library.
I completely agree with the incentive, and in some countries there are.
For instance in France, there are government helps for buying ebikes.
I bought a moonlander by ZSA about a year ago.
I found the split allows for a much more relaxed position while writing, and being able to adjust the halves individually when I reposition myself is very comfortable.
They also have the benefit of having thumb clusters, giving more work to the strongest finger of the hand.
Another benefit I find is that most split keyboards are fully programmable, which makes customizing it to your needs very nice.
The only drawback I find to this keyboard (apart from the price, which is not cheap) is that it is hefty, and not easy to transport. The fact that it is wired clutters a bit the desktop, if this is something that concerns you.
I recently built a corne low profile yo have something more transportable and wireless, but this is much more involved, as the configuration goes through writing code and not a nice UI.
However the comfort of this new board is very nice.
There was a whole subreddit dedicated to ergonomcal keyboards, ErgoMechKeyboards, which is very interesting to browse, as what I have done is seen as extreme by my coworkers, but tame compared to what some people are do.
Funny thing is, the way this is phrased seems to me the person complaining is part of the issue.
The complete and absolute refusal that something is someone good may lie in the whole of the Trump administration is part of the issue. The extreme polarisation of dems vs reps is part of the issue, and the exact reason some voted trump, because, well, at least he’s red.
Not understanding that someone may recognize this, and speaking out about anyone who does, leads to more polarisation.
And what happens with enough division ? What is to be gained to spew hatred on your fellow countrymen ?
If you really think your opinion is superior, don’t yell at others, explain and share. Don’t judge hastily.
In this post I don’t see the proton CEO as a MAGA supporter, I see someone who recognizes something good in a context that cannot be changed. (Like it or not, Trump won and will be president legally for the next 4 years).
