Agreed. But you don’t have to go that far to make rain and snow transparent. And radar might not be a bad idea to have on self driving cars, as long as it’s not the only thing.

LiDAR can be done with different wavelengths. It should be possible to make one that can see through rain and snow.

His disdain for NASA’s caution is obvious.

What a dumbass. If we send people in the quickest possible way (or any way at all, really) and they all die in the attempt, that will set the whole project back decades.

The answer to the radiation problem is better shielding, not a fundamentally unsafe mission.

btw it is not the nuclear propulsion that I’m calling unsafe. It is the idea that we could do without redundancy. That’s just a monumentally stupid idea.

I truly hate that phones don’t readily have file browsers and folders, and when you do add them, they aren’t effective. Mostly that would be useful when moving files between phone and computer. It’s not simple even to get the computer to mount the phone’s drive, probably because everyone is fine with having all their files “in the cloud.”

I could be mistaken on this: don’t they get just one try?

I’ve never heard “as the crow flies” used that way. It is always used to talk about distance, not direction.

Exactly. In other words, they have not been “allowed to infest” the fediverse.

I have not noticed any threads content in Lemmy.

I use Mulvad, and seeding seems to work for me. Am I missing something?

I don’t know of the US ever occupying or controlling (explicitly) a south american country.

And Mexico. And Spain. And even Britain (in the pacific northwest).

ETA: And Samoa, Philippines, Cuba, Guam, etc.

The headline is about “alarming” amounts of CO2 emissions. The comment is pointing out that these CO2 emissions are essentially meaningless. They did not imply that the demise of the lake is unimportant.

Helping others to do their best, especially when it’s something they are truly passionate about.

So frustrating that their logo is a nice looking round watch, but their product is an ugly rectangular one.
