To real hell? Or made-up hell?

The charged particles that affect our electrical and electronic systems have mass and therefore cannot travel at the speed of light... We can see the visible light effects of a flare and know that the slower-moving particles that will cause actual damage are on the way.

They flew the plane just fine...

It was the landing where they struggled.

But, to be fair, it was on a short runway (for the plane) in heavy rain and with a 15 knot tailwind (the maximum allowable).

It's not propaganda when it's true.

And SLS is hideously expensive compared to every other launch vehicle in history.

Brave essentially has done this all along.

I wonder if they started eating something else.

I am Spez's raging bile duct.

Could be worse... AIG

Not being allowed to defend yourself until the intruder finishes breaking in to your home and attacks you simply means self-defense isn't allowed, because at that point you're probably already dead.

When you choose to get drunk, you've also agreed to accept the responsibility for your future drunken actions.

Also hard to shoot somebody breaking in to your home with violent intentions when you don't have a gun.

And the only way to find out what the intruder's intentions are is to wait until it's potentially too late to defend yourself.

WTF is up with the random preview images anyway?

I do exactly this with a SteamDeck and USB-C docking station... with the added bonus that I can pull it out of the dock and take it with me to use as a hand-held when I travel.

The wording of 14A doesn't require a trial and conviction. It was used extensively in the past without convictions to keep former Confederate officials out of Washington.

New computers are the ones more likely to fail.

You are unlikely to find a new non-smart TV... the TV manufacturers get kickbacks from the streaming services for bundling their apps.

If you did find one, it would be more expensive than the dumb TV because you don't have a bunch of streaming services subsidizing the price of the TV for you.

A computer monitor may work for you, or just buy a smart TV and never connect it to a network. You should be able to set it to automatically start up on the last-used input so you never see the built-in UI.

I use traditional packages and Flatpaks... with "user apps" being preferred as Flatpak. This is potentially safer as the OS itself can't be affected by installing or removing these applications, and also can mitigate dependency hell as apps that require different versions of the same dependency can coexist peacefully, with each one using its own bundled version of that dependency.

I also have a couple of appimages that aren't available as a Flatpack, and I'll simply find an alternative to anything that is only distributed as a Snap due to the performance issues, mount clutter, and proprietary nature of the Snap distribution back-end.

It's a very rough town with a nice coat of paint in some places.

It doesn't say "convicted of...".
