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

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

It really does read like an ad, which is amusingly ironic since linux mint is free.

Sounds like intels optane drives

Do really need need 4?

If you cant get by on 2, you might have less power, but you can get better efficiency. With better efficiency you can have a smaller battery for the same range and reduce some of your increased cost that way.

If you’re gonna go through all this trouble, why not put motors directly into the wheels? Then you can bypass the drivetrain all together and directly power the wheels.

The newer technology at that time was cars and roads, and many European countries did try the American system of roads and suburbs.

Its just that most of them realized it wad a bad idea around 20 years ago and started rethinking their cities.

Many city centers were even turned into parking lots like American ones.

Again cities arent supposed to be static, and normally they grow denser, rather than sprawling.

The problem with American cities is partly zoning, and partly nimbyism, where people don’t want their places to change.

And sprawl sucks for pretty much everyone. Less arable land for farming, poorer anmeties, longer travel times, and finally huge transportation costs. Cars are by far the most costly method of travel, both personally and for governments.

The stupid thing is that fixing it isn’t even that hard.

Step one Get rid stupid zoning laws like single family housing and reduce parking minimums.

Step 2 Modify existing roads piece by piece to include alternative transit methods. Add bike lanes, if you can’t slow down roads and people will bike.

Actually run decent buses where peoole want to go, not oversized 50 person buses on 3 routes that nobody uses becasue it doesn’t go anywhere, and has an hour between the next bus.

That’s it, the market will build more housing in areas that need it if its profitable, then use that new tax money to drive transit infrastructure.

There’s a lot of fine details, but we’re bankrupting cities with cars right now.

It’s a good point that cities aren’t built anymore, and that’s part of the problem. Our population has grown drastically, but we don’t build hardly any new infrastructure for them outside of roads. So traffic is terrible despite enormous amounts of money from both government and people.

Cities aren’t supposed to be static, they’re supposed to grow and adapt to the needs of those that live there. There is a large need for non-car transport that is either ignored or sidelined for cars.

I’m not talking about 90% empty land, that’s not where people are.

When the car was invented, governments had little issue buildozing entire neighborhoods for highways, but now that some places are realizing that’s a bad decision, its really hard to undo.

There are places that would be wonderfully served by trains, but just aren’t.

Cars are best in rural areas, but by far the majority of peoole live in cities where cars are the worst, yet we still build them for cars.

Recent controversy over an absurdly high failure rate.

Might be fixed now, but i wouldn’t gamble.

Your best bet is probably to make your own.

Find a high quality NVMe drive and put it in a USB enclosure.

If the USB ports or anything other than the drive fail, the data is easily recoverable.

Given your use case, buying an external drive is probably fine, just don’t get one from SanDisk.

That sounds like a good deal for whoever ends up buying unity

If housing was true free market, demand would drive new construction.

But its not, developers are artificially constrained into building inefficient single family homes, or giant luxury condos due to zoning and other hindering regulations.

Removing these regulations would allow new upstarts to vastly undercut the current market leading to more affordable housing.

Only if it equally applies to men who get someone else pregnant out of wedlock.

Also it’s supposed to be federally illegal.

The federal Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978 (PDA) makes it illegal for employers with 15 or more employees to discriminate against women because of pregnancy, child-birth, abortion, or medical conditions related to pregnancy or childbirth. Pregnant workers must be provided with the same benefits and accommodations and treated the same as non-pregnant workers who have similar abilities or limitations to their work.

Dont forget they removed a tank slot, greatly changing how the game was played. And IMO not for the better.

If they’re making record profits why did they decide to come to steam?

I think their player numbers have dropped and they’re trying to boost them.
