If you have line of sight you could communicate with a laser, hard to jam light. Probably require a bit of modification though.

It has service every 3 minutes, fully autonomous, and the coverage has been expanding consistently. The T started in 1889, it's got a hundred years head start on SkyTrain.

Viarail sucks, but Vancouver's SkyTrain is a delight.

Could LNG tankers be retrofit to move Hydrogen? I could see some potential there.

Also sometimes their spouses, like a lot more than the average amount.

Trump is now the oldest living former president.

Ah, so same playbook as abortion with those scary 'late stage abortions' that are basically exclusively done to rescue people from dangerous and nonviable pregnancies.

Is that ever performed on minors for gender reassignment reasons anyway? It seems like a weird thing to ban. What's next, are they going to make it illegal to perform GRS on dead people?

Xiaomi Pad 6 is a good price and is compatible with plenty of custom roms. Some people don't trust them because it's a Chinese brand, but I figure the odds are about the same that it's got hardware level spying as a Google or Microsoft tablet. At least it's easy to root or reformat.

Eating clocks is very time consuming.

But 'existing' is exactly what transphobes take issue with?

The sticker isn't saying they're bad because they're a crybaby bitch, it's saying that getting upset at other people just for being who they are is crybaby bitch shit.

Though honestly I think that's a bit unfair to crybaby bitches, who often are just upset over something silly. They're being hateful bigoted scumbags.

Be nice, can't you see they're only able to afford red pixels?

RDP has some nice defaults that make things easy. VNC can operate pretty much the same, but it takes a bit more configuration.

I'm not sure I understand what you're talking about. You're related to a couple who have a son who went no contact, but it had nothing to do with politics or abuse? I'm not sure how that maps onto this situation.

I know some people who have gone no contact due to manipulative dynamics, though the parents refuse to acknowledge they've ever done anything wrong. E.g. financial manipulation, or refusing to use their child's preferred pronouns. I feel like if the parents apologized, acknowledged the problem, and made a commitment to change it would make everyone happier. Not sure how that applies to your story, but that's been my experience.

Weird, I switched to an EV to save money. In my experience they're wildly cheaper to maintain (no gas, no oil changes, no transmission/gaskets/fuel pump/filter/exhaust/spark plugs/starter/alternator, etc.), and my used EV cost the same as the used ICE cars I was looking at.

Most of the places I charge are free, I've saved more on gas than I paid for the car already.

Sensor fusion is another F-35 feature. Elon seems to think visible spectrum cameras are all you need. Even if you could capture a couple dozen photos reflected off a fighter jet from miles away, how could you reasonably know it's speed, distance, and location like you get with radar?

But also, how far can low light sensitive cameras see into the sky? Maybe a couple miles with some sort of telescopic optics? The F35 can attack from beyond visual range using its 100 mile range radar system.

The sad thing about being a Windows user is they've got you between a rock and a hard place. You either upgrade or lose support, and in a lot of cases you can't upgrade without buying a new system.

I know a lot of people resist learning Linux, but it really is the only way out of the cycle. You can start small at first, dip your toes in. Before long it will feel more natural and familiar than the next release from Redmond. On that day you will be free.
