Maybe they didn't really need the capsule to touch down at a lower speed since it can withstand this, so they save a bit on cost with smaller parachutes? Not really sure if this item alone would make any difference, but if they do plan

Are there any new developments regarding the TC license? I seem to recall that part of the problem with doing a follow-up project based on TC's source was the license. Has VeraCrypt addressed this successfully or did they just went alo

Well, in part I agree. But I think there is (or at least will/should be) a difference between a trained astronaut and a space tourist. I mean, being an astronaut is more than just going to outer space, isn't it? A space tourist mi

Well yes. But I think the parent was framing it with reference to the intelligence world conflicts. At least that's how I Read it. Imagine you torture a guy to get the name of it's cell leader. You can't verify this easily. Y

I think that sometimes there's another factor that gets overseen when discussing torture. The "problem" that I believe is also tried to be addressed with torture is the view that the society that "supports torture"

I have always wondered about Aldous Huxley's death. He asked his wife to inject him with 100ug of LSD while on his deathbed. I believe that he died some hours later. Maybe dying this way is not pleasant, who knows, but at least sounds

What exactly is the brainfuck for you? I don't fully understand when you say "I'd like to get out of it, but at the same time, I feel like if I can get out of if, I can get out of most things". What I mean is, as far as

I came to the conclusion (which I later confirmed by reading a quote by someone famous, can't remember right now), that most intelligent people will realize that no matter how intelligent they are, there always someone else more intell

The article says that part of the need to get programmers back in the project is to be able to get exact readings on the amount of energy that's being used and the amount left. It appears like they are currently working with estimates

For me it started to decline in season 9ish, but I did enjoy lots of episodes from seasons 9-12, some of the 13 might be good. But after that I started to actually count with the fingers of one hand the episodes I liked from the current sea

Maybe it could be due to being different countries? I was talking about Mexico in this case. I'm not saying there aren't shitty private schools in Mexico. There are a lot of everything. You can find some of the best high schools a

Thanks for the explanation! I was reading the paper but not being an expert I could hardly pass beyond the abstract. So if I understand correctly, the idea would be to have only one curve that has been thoroughly examined for weaknesses and

I guess it would be nice if someone could suggest a registrar that has absolutely zero complains. Like I said, it has worked for me. I didn't say they were perfect. Please show me what domain registrar do you use that you would recomme

Maybe "can't work in the industry" could mean only to avoid work where there was a direct relationship previous to the retirement? For example, let's say a Nestle competitor that doesn't have any stakes in that part
