Loved the ending credits scene in the last season of Picard. It's two minutes of just beautiful renderings of the screens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWJ0xtJGg3w

Things have a habit of showing up at the world origin in video games when something goes wrong. e.g. In older GTA games there was usually a big pile of cars under the map at 0,0,0. In MSFS multiplayer, planes are showing up at Null Island a

It's not without precedent; there is a long history of soldiers leaking classified info to win some banal online argument. Has happened 10 times in the last few years with the game War Thunder.

Masts have rigging for a reason. You can't just fold one up in a box; the physics doesn't work, mast will be torn off by the first big gust.

The stated position of the labour party, and what they campaigned for, was Remain. At the time, there were many people like you saying one thing about Corbyn while he said another. Nobody liked Corbyn, so he surely must have been a Brexitee

Labour campaigned and voted against Brexit shouting this would happen. "Project Fear" as it was called. But now they pretend like Brexit has nothing to do with it... it's just the torries fault apparently.

The "Dissent and Decision" section is fun. Reads very much as a battle over egos and personalities rather than the technical merits of a particular aircraft.

I don't buy the explanation; I think what's going on is far simpler. You only have to break up the tokens. Literally putting in dashes and slashes, like your trying to bypass the swear-word filter on Runescape works without all th

People really overstate Intel's woes. They got stuck on 14nm for ages, but were for all that time still the market leader. AMD has never comprehensively challenged them; only one segment at time is an AMD product better.

A newcomer most probably won't even know what Delta-V is, let alone any of the other stuf you mentioned. The tutorial that is the focus of the article explains all of that with voice and animations.

Yep. When you add thrust in an airliner, the nose pitches up, aggressively. Too little thrust and the nose would not make it off the runway.

Interesting bit of history. Didn't play Action Quake 2, but had great fun playing The Specialists, which I believe was also inspired by Action Quake 2.

Whilst an issue like this can occur with any network architecture, going with Peer-to-peer looks like a terrible decision. 'Never trust the client' and all that. The in-game money cost real money, but the client is trusted so anyo
