I'm guessing `insolation` turns you into a clean energy source. Can't imagine it's good for the immediate surroundings though.

Endeavour flew a red ensign during her service in the Royal Navy, as far as I can determine. The White ensign only became the ensign of the entire Royal Navy in 1864, prior to that it was flown by ships of the White squadron of the Royal Na

Compared to vanilla KSP, this interface is excellent. Intuitive placement of translate Vs rotate. Heh. Far less change of RUD due to using the wrong one at the wrong time. And no clampotron bounce XD

We've had alerts for packet loss and had issues in recovering region-spanning services (both AWS and 3rd party). Yes, some of these we should be better at handling ourselves, but... it's all very well to say "expect to lose a

another example of a single dc in a single AZ rendering an entire region almost unusable. This has shades of eu-central-1 all over again.

the eu-central-1 datacenter fire earlier this year was purportedly just 1AZ, but it took down the entire region to all intents and purposes. Our SOP is to cut over to a second region the moment we see any AZ-level shenanigans. We've b

to be fair this was not the fault of the F-35 but rather most likely due to a rain cover that was supposed to be removed before flight. So human error rather than mechanical.

I have found WFH to be enjoyable and rewarding, but this is despite both of us being in high stress careers and due to reasons somewhat unrelated to work (no commuting, more time around the family, etc). We have both simply adapted and now

Exactly. The shape is likely only just resolvable at a safe highway following distance, whereas you'll see it flashing from further away. Arguably the visual design might even trigger the "something is wrong" reflex and make
