Yeah, but you can do this in the background without blocking the whole page. In fact you have to go to extra lengths to make it “block” the whole page. Maybe it’s just some css that sets the cursor to the “loading” image, and then ignores mouse clicks for a while, giving the illusion of doing lots of work…
Of-the-shelf SSDs are optimized for speed and price.
Flight recorders are typically specified to withstand an impact of 3400 g and temperatures of over 1,000 °C (1,830 °F), exposure to salt water, and high pressure if it sinks to the bottom of the sea as required by EUROCAE ED-112.
Maybe you could design a flight recorder that uses SSDs, but then you must get it certified again for the new hardware, which will cost a lot of money nobody wants to spend. The next step in flight recorders is to also send a live feed of telemetric data back to some ground station so the last position of the plane is known - with a flight recorder you only get this data after you found the wreck. Currently submitting this signal is optional and can be turned of by the pilot, which is the reason why Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 is still missing.
You could probably shoot down 80% or maybe even 90%. But if the enemy launches a few hundred missiles at the same time then some might make it.
“I was just trolling” - a 12 year old after he realizes he just said something stupid.
Make socialism dictatorship great again!
I think it was lead and cadmium with the Shrek drinking glasses from the 2000s, both chemicals are commonly used to paint glass mugs. This is not exclusively a McDonald’s issue, but also applies to other painted glasses (Holiday souvenirs, Sports club Merch, other drinking glasses and mugs made in china).
You might be able to buy a set of paper test strips for less than $10, but more accurate results from a lab are more expensive.
Maybe is in the metadata as someone pointed out earlier, or it could be an otherwise unused ASCII char that looks different for each user who licensed it when printed out, sort of like a qr code as a single ASCII char.
Or it could be that they simply just check filename, file size and/or md5, all of which can be easily changed.
I think the money is not that important at this stage. As an important figure you will get a lot of favours and freebies from people and companies, so you dont pass regulations that would hurt their bottom line. You also have a lot more opportunities later by being spokesperson for other organisations, can write books because everyone knows your name or get hired by a big company, because you already know half the politicians they deal with.
Nope, you need more than 1 subscription, because quite often services only offer a few of the seasons of your favorite show, while the others are on different services.

That is not important. They sell attention from millions of users to advertisers, just like Facebook, google, YouTube, TikTok, …
lso there seems to be a proposal to exclude women from higher education unless they’ve given birth.
Would they not be required for the skilled workforce?
I’m to scared to verify this…
In the 90s there where a lot more OS available to compete agains windows, who already had existing software (sometimes better and more capable) to compete with windows: MacOS (Popular in print, layout), BeOS, OS2/warp (tried to replace windows), Amiga OS (best for video editing work at the time), Atari, Novell Netware.
It’s not exactly like people where desperate for another OS at this point in the late 90s/early 2000s.
Windows as a software package would have never been affordable to individuals or local-level orgs in countries like India and Bangladesh (especially in the 2000’s) that are now powerhouses of IT. … Had the OS been too difficult to pirate, educators and local institutions in these countries would have certainly shifted to Linux and the like.
While i somewhat agree with your overall statement, this part is just wrong. Linux in the late 1990s and 2000s was very different from today, where you just plug in a CD/USB and select your region. Linux back then was very nerdy, you had to choose your hardware first to make sure there was a linux driver and the installation process was very difficult, especially before plug&play where you had to know which IRQs and slots you had to use for network, sound and videocard to avoid conflicts. I remember trying to install Linux from a CD, only to work my war from one error message to the next because it did not like my videocard, soundcard or both.
Also, what would you do with a linux pc at home or at work if it could not run word, excel, duke nukem 3D, TTD, programs you knew from work/school or software you could pirate from your friends?
Or you could charge batteries with much more usable power because of fewer losses in the system…
I’m sure the CIA would like to get his hands on him as well to get some first hand info.
Looks like i was thinking about a different animation. The balls in Juggler are not static and show a different reflection in each frame.
Was the juggler really rendered? To me it looked like all the balls where just flat brushes with a 3D ball effect that is moved around always facing towards you. Similar to the enemies in duke nukem and doom.
But emit it to what? Vacuum cannot absorb heat.
Might be hacked accounts. The same happens on facebook. Some friend had their account stolen, and could not get it back. Half a year later the name and profile picture changes to “Elon Musk”. Reported it to facebook for Scam and “Impersonating public figure”. They have a report category for this exact case, so surely they know that this is a problem and they will take care of it, right? Nope, according to Facebook everything is A-Ok with the account, and no action is taken.
