And good reporting would have sourced some pagers from the other clients.

Why? They were only transporting documents (papers for bill of lading) not actual items.

Only the US and China have landed successfully on Mars. China achieved this in 2021. Russia/USSR tried multiple times and didn't succeed. Other countries have sent satellites to orbit around Mars, which is not the same thing.

I very specifically contradicted your claim. If you want sourcing, here is the New York Times[1] saying "B.A.C. did take on ordinary clients, for which it produced a range of ordinary pagers." 1. https://www.nytimes.com

What they don't say is: (1) Vehicles are heavier now, not just EV's. (2) Regardless of the barriers you are safer in an EV because EV's don't rollover.

The problem is that we will have proprietary software (distributed for free) doing bad things, and people blame their phone being slow. I don't like that app stores engage in rent seeking behavior when it comes to payments, but that is

There is the stupid underlying assumption that most people have cars, which is not true in the city where I live (only half of households do). I do have an emergency AM/FM/WB radio at home that I take on camping trips.

I have a portable AM/FM/WB radio in case of earthquakes or other disasters (it's the Wirecutter recommended one). This regulation seems somewhat sensible but I'm not sure what the point is if it interferes with EV motors

Wrong. BAC also sold pagers to ordinary clients.

This is for where there is no T-mobile coverage, so there is no need to choose satellite over a terrestrial station.

Good reporting would have sourced more pagers of this model and examined them to verify this, but regardless, how many copycats did this inspire? DB Cooper's antics led to several security procedures and aircraft modifications being im

Airport security knows what laptops look like under the scanner. Modifications will probably result in it being immediately flagged - increasing done automatically by the machines themselves. What is the likelihood that the manufacturer put

Yeah they have a pager number, not a phone number.

Other electronic devices (laptops, tablets, etc) are far less likely to contain anything like this, because Apple, Huawei, Dell etc manage their supply chains and don't just let anyone make products carrying their brand. There are so m

In iOS 18 you can allow apps access to only some contacts instead of the entire contact book. This makes sense. I don't want apps to know who my doctor is, especially considering many apps share this data with others (including, in som

Possible? Sure, and a lot oft of hippie/environmentalist types in America do live that way, both in cities and in rural areas. Is it desirable? Not necessarily. The goal is to be more efficient with water sourcing, distribution, and us

Sounds like you aren't buying custom wheelchairs then. This is what the order form for a custom wheelchair looks like. Look at the customization possibilities: https://www.adaptivespecialties.com/PDF/TiLite_AeroZ_s

If it's a lightweight wheelchair custom to your body measurements (not a cheap amazon product) the going uphill is fairly easy. There are also attachments like the SmartDrive for steeper grades. Unless you don't have function in y

There are a lot of variables. You can ask an occupational therapist about what sort of wheelchair would be best. If it's a case where they move themselves indoors but get pushed by others outdoors, it arguably does not matter. But if t

Those are not custom (typically come pre-sized) and are generally not very usable outdoors to get around other than short distances. Sometimes known as "hospital wheelchairs". For people with temporary injuries who are mostly taki

Replying STOP means you are a real person who doesn't ignore texts from unknown senders, which means you will only receive more spam.

Annual macOS releases regularly make changes to the bluetooth stack and the sound stack. Additionally, there are always new Mac products as well as new AirPods products being released, and getting them working on new hardware has costs (inc

This has several downsides: (1) If you purchased something just before the new version comes out, it feels like you got screwed over. (2) It requires a lot of new features be released at once for the new major version. This is actually more

The FLAC's are presumably DRM free and are yours to keep once downloaded. Storage (cloud or local backup) is your problem. Not having re-downloads is a separate issue. What company is this?
