JPEG also reduces color depth as it’s first step but just in a smarter way. RGB is converted into YCbCr.

I’d argue at least a number of the belligerents need to have switched to a war economy and then simultaneously span multiple continents.

Maybe only Ukraine right now is in a war economy?

Yeah they caused the problem but they won’t be able to solve it at this point. It’s not like they could just go and redraw the lines.

Does anyone know if there’s a place I can watch this? I’ve done some cursory searches before but didn’t find any full races.

But the route is The Dawn Wall which is a trad route with some bolts.

He is free climbing. He’s not using things like a ladder to climb.

He’s not free soloing, which is done without a rope.

There’s also rope soloing where you use a rope but you don’t have a belayer and have to catch yourself on falls.

Is it this picture or this ledge? I believe his half dome assent was scary because he wasn’t fully prepared. However this specific picture was taken afterwards.

There’s a video rental shop in Houston. Don’t understand how they’ve stayed in business for so long.

By that definition, it can’t be exactly 7 then either. 10^-7 is just an estimate that we’ve agreed works fine. To my knowledge we haven’t really tried to improve this accuracy either?

Also I’m pretty sure it’s only coincidentally 7. The calculation for pH isn’t based on any property of water.

Room for parks!

Use an attosecond laser and hit it with a petawatt!

I think they meant the failed attempt at using it to rescue hostages.

Meh I don’t like wearing the logo outside but we get a decent number of hoodies and sweatpants which are great for WFH/indoors days. Usually a decent brand and comfy.

Samurai did use bows and other weapons beside their sword,

Did George Lucas know that? Or maybe he just wanted to emphasize the mysticism around katanas.

But anyways, weapons and abilities are plot devices in Star Wars and hardly consistent.

There’s plenty of one handed lightsaber usage. Ashoka famously dual wields.

I think it more like how some samurai considered firearms dishonorable.

Do you know her in person?

While that’s quite sad, in the case of their road trip, the comparison was made against the many splatters on the chase vehicles making the trip with them.

One interesting tidbit is that due to the aerodynamic design, bugs are swept over the windshield and don’t splatter. This effect was theorized in simulations but they were able to demonstrate it during the roadtrip.

The issue is the plastic internal mechanisms will wear out eventually. The Pentels have a metal core which has never worn out from my usage. I always end up losing the pencils before they break. The same can’t be said for the BICs.
