If its a optical image satellite, it probably doesnt take much to burn on the camera if it’s shutter is open.

I imagine the precision needed for that is lacking in a solar mirror motor.

Small satellite that’s at least 100km away

Not quite, the true invariant quantity is the magnitude of the spacetime 4 vector, which depends on rest mass.

It actually goes further than that. In spacetime you’re always going the same speed, the more in space, less in time.

At least from the special relativity perspective.

That seems around what I’d expect the measurement error to be anyway

I’m interested in trying to install Linux on my arc laptop, I’m wondering as well. I might try in the next few days.

I’ve only rented an ev, but only about half the time they have successfully taken a cc. Either they were broken, or it was just missing.

A lot of them have apps, which is very annoying as a renter, but if you own the car it should be less of an issue.

Afaik you don’t actually need to purchase a subscription to use them.

Id like to see this normalized for country size. As is, its really just a country size list, with some slight variations.

I think it depends, farsighted? Probably not.

Nearsighted looking at things hopelessly out of focus and not trying to look, perhaps.

I’m very nearsighted amd taking my glasses seems to make them relax, since nothing will be close enough to make them focus.

Somebody that’s farsighted might strain their eyes to focus without their glasses.

They will be safe to eat indefinitely, but may not be palatable, depending on how it’s stored.

There are other elections throughout the year… Midterms at the federal level, and often state and local elections too.

Admittedly how it works in the US, but I’m sure still applies in other countries, maybe not everywhere.

Sounds like intels optane drives

The cost to benefit looks way better if you think long term. Especially with climate change on the horizon to compete with planes but emission free.

One of the major problems for upgrading lines is straitening the route, and people fight the emniment domain way harder than they do for roads.

I’m not disagreeing with that, but high speed rail from Boston to Miami would be extremely practical. Efficient, fast, convient travel along that corridor reducing dependence on cars for city to city travel. And the area has both the demand and density to support such projects.

And while its impractical now, if it was built to cheapen regional travel in the region it could grow to high use spurning economic development.

I’d love to take a train at a reasonable pace from near to DC to my family in Pittsburgh, or to visit New York.

I might even enjoy a cross country trek to the rockies for skiing on a train, but it’s never going to be an option.

East coast united states has similar population density to most of europe.

It’s just out west we have a lot of empty land.

The price fixing is only for steam keys which is completely reasonable.

The average car age is 12.5 years, so many of them are likely approaching 20

Yeah and that’s why I’m not advocating for 100 year cars.

I’d be pretty happy with 20 years to, but 10 just feels like planned obsolescence.

I also messed around with the math very loosly, and only accounting for crashes that total a car, they could be expected to go 20 years or more on average.

And that’s now with all the terrible driving that happens, especially at night. With slight deacrease in accident frequncy that number can increase a lot.

So maybe 30 is a bit much for now, but I’d still like an ev that would claim to last 20 yeara.

So far most ev batteries do much better than cell phones, as long as they have cooling.
