One of the incidents was caused by aerial refueling: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1966_Palomares_B-52_crash Palomares is in Spain. Fifty years later, it's still an issue for the people living there.

Some of the suggestions seem sensible, but the maintainer comes off as a bit unhinged. I wouldn't trust my edit library to it for a while.

I love darktable. Incredibly powerful and fun to play around with. I like the interface much better than the other floss raw editors. I didn't mind the learning curve. The documentation is extensive, but I rarely needed it. They'v

Is your math right? 90 million tons of water/10 m gets me 1.7 km2, so a 1 sq mi landfill would last around ... 1 year, not 287. That said, of the 90 million of waste, 60-70 million is construction waste, and just 6 million tons is muni

I guess that's probably true. Though the Walkman and its descendants have been popular since the 80s, and music radio was very accessible and routinely running in the background in situations where people now listen to Spotify.

Yeah I mean, I wish people would illustrate their anecdotes with statistics, right? Oh wait, I did. I even alluded to the fact that I was an outlier in not buying CDs in the late nineties. But then the rest of the world got the message. And

No, I clicked the adjust for inflation button. You do have a point re: population growth -- the per-capita spend on music is smaller than it was. But regarding artists, you're sort of making my point: there are certainly more artists a

I clicked the button. It's literally within a few percent of where it was 30 years ago, adjusted for inflation. I call that broadly in line. Yes, it was much bigger in 2000, and much smaller in 2010, also bigger in 1978 and smaller in

Why wouldn't a modern Napster replacement a) run on your phone and b) have music discovery? Doing both P2P is only a legal challenge (as in, it is illegal), not a technical one.

8 GB of memory on a laptop is pathetic in 2023 and everybody knows it. And you're either using a very broken Android OS implementation or very unusual apps, it should not behave that way.

I thought the Gobekli Tepi age thing was a fringe theory? Not aliens style inanity, but not widely believed in the archaeological mainstream. So maybe a bit early to call it vindicating evidence? Edit: sorry, I confused it with Gunung Padan

The problem with leaving little to assumption is that this tends to be verbose and people tend not to like to listen to long speeches and will simply not read long text. So, as everything in engineering, it's a tradeoff.
