Unfortunately, it also provided no useful information quantifying the statements. Maybe there is a problem elsewhere, maybe the pool is contaminated, maybe the sensor used is very sensitive and 300 cpm is not as concerning as it would seem.

Unlikely in this case. Water is amazingly as a shielding medium, and unless the water was contaminated (very unlikely, as it’s easily detected and heavily monitored) he likely got lower than background levels while in the pool itself.

If we’re just making stuff up, why not just have a warp drive or something?

That’s not really what ‘infinite’ means.

Infinite time since we have no realistic way of making such a laser at this time - and anyone trying it is likely to get nuked before they finish their massive death ray.

Fascists already ‘know’ that violence is inevitable. By accusing the opposition of it first, they delay it and get the upper hand. Read up on appeasement and tell me it isn’t applicable. [ https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/N

Uh, it does - the ‘fuel’ is the other probe. Notably, this also has a particularly bad ISP? Also, probes are presumably also heavier and rarer?

What you’re advocating is appeasement. You can’t out reasonable an unreasonable person, when then unreasonable person refuses to respect your (or others) boundaries. Most of the time, in a civil society, other members of society (police, et

This doesn’t actually work in the real world where people cannot be isolated from or protected from people who keep doing this to them. You can’t ’out empathize’ someone doing 24/7 manipulation against people. The only thing that works

For any given time period N, if it takes > 0 time or effort to make a tool, then there are provably less possible tools than infinity for sure. If we consider time period of length infinity, then it is less clear (I don’t have room in th

G workspaces support has always been at least decent in my experience. MS support, less so. Oracle support took the cake however, but that was with a commercial support license and a weird bug triggered by a newly released feature (never do

It absolutely would. I can even tell you what type of laptop/dev equipment you’d likely get. Hard to say what the actual office environment would end up like (plenty of toxic nerds out there), but I’ve worked for CEOs who were devs, an

I’m fairly certain I’d deeply regret my life choices if I had to use teams daily. Occasional (mandatory) usage interacting with it for various gov’t usage, etc. has reinforced that view. Why subject yourself to something you know you’ll hat

The alternative is… what? ‘Defending’ against the use of Em-dashes by LLMs? Or people reacting to that? You might as well be sweeping a flood uphill. Tilting at windmills at least has a chance you might actually damage a windmill enough to

Every good firefighter knows this feeling. Nothing says ‘go ahead, destroy that shit’ like money going up in smoke if you don’t. P.S. don’t park in front of fire hydrants, because they will have a shit eating grin on their face when they

Not an active datacenter, but I did get to use a fire extinguisher to knock out a metal-mesh-reinforced window in a secure building once because no one knew where the keys were for an important room. Management was not happy, but I didn’t

The number of nuclear armed countries with large economies that will get worked up if you call them racists for being ‘the west’ is waaaay larger than zero.

Not too many commercial aircraft at > FL 360. They’d be hard to miss too.

But why would anyone want to do that? You do realize that antagonizing people with nuclear weapons and the largest economies in the world rarely results in positive results, right?

They’re the same thing. Either you go sideways really fast, or go straight up really far (geo-synchronous distance). Either way, you need the same total velocity delta.

I think you mean ‘fighter jet’ which is a small set of ‘combat aircraft’ which is further a small set of ‘military aircraft’. And not all fighter jets are single engine. For example, the F22, F18, etc.
1557.
by lazide 1y ago
Sure, but then you also have the F22, F117, B2, A10, SR71, U2, and a bunch more I can’t think of right now. Some helicopters have a single engine. Most have 2. They are still unreliable death machines, and arguably 2 engines makes the probl
