while you’re propelling a tonne of metal

The Model S weighs 2 tonnes in fact, or 2.2 US tons. Electric cars are insanely heavy, so much so that existing traffic safety items like guard rails aren't really designed to handle the heavier ones.

Not sharing to be Pedantic Internet User, just mind-boggling how heavy those things are.

Wow, just something like 1200 baud FSK on 70cm. That's stupid simple, and stupid. They could use cellular modems (the locomotives already have one, normally) or LoRaWAN or....anything without even trying and it would be an improvement.

One would think that MAGA would be enraged at all the waste, fraud, and abuse in this process of inhumane torture, their tax dollars being wasted.

Apple doesn’t exactly try to converge OS platform, even forking off iPad OS from iOS

It is more that they couldn't figure out how - but they keep on slowly removing bits of all three and making all of them act the same way, so eventually they will be one bloated monolith if they continue down this path.

Same with MacOS and iOS. They're doing the same shift Apple has done over the last 25 years. Build on open-source, and slowly pivot to closed-source binaries. The perception of openness lags for a very long time until people finally realize it has just become more proprietary limited crap.

Medication, education, therapy, lifestyle changes can (mostly) wrangle it so you are in control.

https://theholdernessfamily.com/adhd-is-awesome/ is highly recommended.

Can you use T's though, once you have enough As to redirect the wind overtop them? Capital T's of course, lower-case would just get all tangled up in the turbulence.

Stupid manufacturers. Would be a non-issue if you could just slide open the battery door, pop it out, and recycle it, like we could over the last 2 centuries. (The D battery was introduced in the 19th century).

Eventually. The budget approval and equipment ramp-up will have a lag of months at minimum. Now is the time to rent all the white vans and hide them in an abandoned factory so they have nothing to drive but George's mom's Chevy Nova.

Don't forget to put them all in italics so they execute faster!

Their business management policy going forward will be to milk existing support contracts until they wane, and then piecemeal/gut the company. The brand will end up somewhere else like how Motorola was scattered to the seven winds. (Cablemodem line became Arris, which is now owned by CommScope, cell phone line now owned by Lenovo, enterprise/mobile compute now owned by Zebra, chargers/headsets now licensed by Binatone/Zoom, radios now owned by a spinoff called Motorola Solutions, etc.)

Intel already sold their modem line to Apple, which is probably why it took Apple so long to make their own modem, they were starting from a place of garbage. They also sold their NUC line to Asus, which, given the lack of quality in the NUC13 series, probably good as they obviously stopped caring.

The martyr window would have been more during the campaign leading up to the election. That window is closed now.

So Democratic leaders are not exactly lining up around the block to pull that move.

I believe, you misspelled coward.

They also killed off part of the line in 2020: https://www.belkin.com/support-article/?articleNum=316642

They're experts at creating paperweights.

And about every other US military base in the US, and probably the world.

As if a man who bankrupted a casino

Oh, not just a casino, multiple!

Dug up from a previous post and updated:

Mango Mussolini's failed businesses:

• At least four failed building ventures
• Had a failed “university”
• Failed vodka business (how hard is that, right?)
• Failed steak business
• Failed airline
• Failed board game
• Failed casinos in Atlantic City (how do you fail at running multiple businesses that only exist to hoover up money?)
• Failed magazine
• Failed luxury travel organization
• Failed mortgage company
• Failed presidency that took Pres. Biden’s administration most of their entire term to fix. We’re talking documents that are gone, departments that are deleted, abject chaos that had to be rebuilt from scratch in some cases.
• And soon, a failed wireless "carrier" on T-Mobile with an "American-made" phone made in "Chyyna".

Successes:

• Had mommy’s money to get him going
• Had 5 successful buildings built, mostly in the 1980s
  • At least three of them had fraudulent financial statements, inflated valuations, and inflated tax losses

"Rocket Money: give us access to all your financial information, and we might help you cancel stuff!"

Bluetooth and WiFi can be tracked as well, even with "anonymized" WiFi MAC addresses.

that ignore safety in favour of driver convenience

How about one better? Municipalities that ignore both safety and driver convenience in favor of feeling good about helping the environment, or so they perceive. The end result of more pollution, more hazardous navigational conditions for everyone, and more problems.

Example, a state law that made it so bicyclists no longer have to come to a stop at intersections. It was a feel-good measure to make things easier for bicyclists so they're not having to come to a complete stop over and over. In implementation, it just means a car driving 55MPH comes up to a green traffic light intersection that would ordinarily be safe, except one of the cross-directions has trees blocking the side road, so a bike comes chugging down the hill at 35MPH and blazes through their red light right in front of the much heavier and slower to stop car. (C.R.S. § 42‑4‑1412.5)

Now, couple that with another law that allows large trucks, buses, and RVs preferential treatment at roundabouts. All other vehicles must yield to the large vehicle no matter what. And going back to... the bike doesn't yield to anything. (C.R.S. § 42‑4‑715)

Welcome to Colorful Colorado.

People think the pandemic invited driver chaos, we were bold, and asked the universe, "hold my beer?"

The backscatter x-ray body scanners are the only scanners to be concerned with, that and improperly shielded luggage x-ray scanners you stand next to, which run at a much higher power level. The newer luggage scanners that do a CT scan are still using x-ray, it just spins around the luggage.

mmWave scanners use non-ionizing radio waves, in the same spectrum area as mmWave 5G, in fact, but at a much lower power level. Radio waves have over a century of evidence and science showing that non-ionizing radiation can't mutate cells, which is necessary to cause cancer.

Ionizing radiation like x-rays, can. Likewise, flying in an airplane at an altitude above the protection of our atmosphere, and being exposed to the sun, also exposes one to ionizing radiation at much higher power levels. That being said, why would anyone trust humans in a mediocre security organization to properly maintain their machines? Especially now with the current admin gutting everything to the bone.
