Non horns story time ...

A long time ago I was but a young lad living in eastern Europe and I use to watch this cartoon. The actual content of this cartoon are lost to the ravages of my memory but a few things stood out, the main character had a flying board and the opening sequence was him flying through these hallways that were broken into geometric shapes and there was a big face that he flew towards.

Sometime later especially during university it became a recurring niggling idea. Did it exist or was it some dream or fantasy? I'd get enthused once in a while and try searching the depths of the net for it with no luck.

It wasn't until I had graduated and was working, close to 20 years after the fact that I found it ! The name of this show is now imprinted on my brain.

If a person without a nation state's budget behind him can land an object even one the size of a shoe on the moon that would be a major scientific breakthrough and an incredible engineering achievement.

Simply the economics of the feat would basically instantly revolutionise a whole host of industries. Even spaceX who's whole thing is making the economics of space reasonable is nowhere close .

But the object doesn't enter at speed here it's stationary. If a hoop is thrown at an object and passes around the object the object is still stationary. The speed of the portal relative to the object does not impart movement on the object.

The quicker the portal moves the quicker the object appears on the other side but for the object to shoot out it means energy is being transfered from the car to the object.

If you're right then what happens If the two portals are moving at equal and opposite speeds?

You can literally see and hear it , you could even touch it briefly if you like.

The irony of this page ending with a bible verse that specifically references lightning ...

I think it's A because I assume a portal stitches two points in space to each other.

So if I have a surface A and B with a portal ']' in the middle A0 A1 ] A2 A3. B0 B1 [ B2 B3

A portal creates a new surface

A0 A1 ][ B2 B3

And if you move the portal the new surface changes.

A0 A1 A2 ][ B3

Speed is distance over time. When a portal moves the object that passed through the portal stays stationary. Let's say I am standing on B2. When the portal advances I find myself standing on A2 , have i moved? No the environment has changed but i am still in the same relative position with respect to the portal surface. No distance travelled so no speed.

This is exactly my issue. I like the party I like the characters but when I declined to get involved with someone they recoiled from me. Possibly this is somewhat realistic but I don't belive it should be true of every character.

Plus I've known these people for a week. Fair enough you want to smash but don't take it personally when I decline its not like we have a long established relationship.

Wanton environmental destruction at an exponential scale simulator. Also trains

Both of these are terrible takes on the books.

Spice is not a solution in dune in fact the whole 4th book and the end of the third are centered around forcing humanity to wean itself off spice so that it may evolve.

The central concept is that humanity must not depend on machine or drugs or complicated eugenics and must instead look inwards and improve itself by facing hardship.

In foundation (at least the start) the complicated maths is essentially there to prove that all establishments fail and survival requires constant change. Very differently from dune foundation sees technological superiority as key to this and importantly the ability for society to change in order to support the technological progress.

Even if you don't agree with the above neither book aims to "fight imperialist bullshit" if anything they both quite staunchly support the idea of a benevolent dictator controlling all.

Dina , it's a bitmap font and there's a TTF version as well.

It's one of those things where I'm just used to it I think. The bitmap is sharp and everything else I've tried feels blurry or heavy.

Would you rather see a picture of almost 100%empty space?

These are great! Throw a wash on and they will really pop! Well done

Take a look at South Australia, the graphs are funny, that's what happens when you have more Solar then you know what to do with

Depending on where you are following the sources from this website and doing a bit of digging can get you more accurate data especially for things like local carbon gen.

For personal stuff especially when I use git just to sync between laptop and computer most of my commits are the things that don't work and I use for new stuff ~for changes and X for broken stuff.

So a commit can be " + new feature ~logging to accommodate new feature X Edge case crashes the new feature."

Video content like this makes no sense from a consumer point of view. So much more useful to just read an article, you can skim and get the jist , you can copy paste to play with it. And if there's anything of value you can bookmark it and quickly find it later without having to live through 18 m

This is a crazy take.

So in your view nothing is worth sharing unless its complete and you "deserve" full credit? So the concept of idea sharing is alien to you?

The idea of proof of concept is not to claim a stake on a concept. The idea is to show the feasibility of something using some assumptions. It allows you to reason about the work and decide if you should commit to further exploring the concept, or it allows you to identify the key hurdles. It also allows you to even just record a thought or idea because it might be useful to others.

Is running fine with no issue or extra setup.

However they are changing the anti cheat on official servers to something not supported on Linux.

That said its unclear (to me) exactly what will stop working or when.

This is interesting. I'm assuming that like the inline error messages the text is not considered for normal navigation but I wonder since its not at the end of the line if it will be confusing.
