Having not scanned your history, are you German? That sounds like something a German would say.

Action fans will know Around the Worls in 80 Days because of Jackie Chan, many kids will have seen it in the animation with Mickey Mouse.

First entertainment purposes only is corporate language for gives the wrong answers and don’t want to lose the lawsuit if we tell people to trust it. Just like Fox News.

This is intentional behavior on the part of Sxan, and he’s fairly consistent about it. I don’t agree with his reasons, but he has the right to believe what he does and write how he does. I don’t begrudge him making people spend additional mental effort reading it, and most days it doesn’t bother me. I don’t have the energy today, so stopped reading after the first thorn.

I realize there are benefits to attacking Iran, but it’s still wrong.

I feel this should be answered with a number of pancakes. So, what do you say?

For me, I have far too many to count at this point, but one that comes to mind was a few seconds after the roller coaster ride when I decided I shouldn’t have had that sub minutes before the ride. I got to see that sub again almost immediately after that.

I’ve seen your name before in both posts and comments. I can’t even say if I’ve agreed with your content, but your goal should be to post things you’re okay with. At most, if you get a negative reaction assess your opinions and your audience and see if one or both need to change. External validation is always a risky and potentially harmful thing.

So, subatomic particles have free will, but humans don’t?

It’s always good to assess the current state, look for the wins, and be prepared for the losses. Some days, this is the most you can hope for.

What he is saying is, while a lot of the phone calls you got were answered with the KB, this doesn’t reflect the people who didn’t call because they used the KB. For that, you would need to track total sales, new customer intake, volume over time, etc. It’s quite possible you could have customers who got a KB reply from your support staff in a timely manner and decided if it was that easy for you to get an answer to them, it would be worth it for them to try it before calling next time.

Of course, the reality is quite likely that the main users of the knowledge base you built was the support team, which still isn’t a loss.

Caffeine and sugar are my two big vices. It would be healthier to drop the sugar than the caffeine, but it generally isn’t considered a drug. But I get my simple carbs (and caffeine) every day.

Could be this.

Giving you an upvote for using three metaphors in a sentence that small. Impressive!

Brother has also started down the proprietary toner road. Source.

I had a relationship that lasted 3 years. I didn’t think we had no future, but lasting 10 was pretty unlikely. I still learned things that made my future relationships better. While I have some regrets, I’m still overall glad about the relationship.

If you’re getting something of value, it can be worth sticking around. If you’re just having fun and that’s what all parties involved are looking for, that’s fine, too, imo. Ultimately, you have to decide if it’s worth it to you to stick around.

The current solar panel system of the ISS weights about 8 tonnes, the Falcon Heavy can deliver 63 tonnes to LEO. That’s about 715 launches of the Falcon Heavy, assuming space solar panel W/kg hasn’t improved since then, that Starship never becomes commercially viable, and doesn’t include batteries, cooling, or the working components. This still isn’t in the range of feasible for a data center, but could be an option for microgravity industry. The value of a more successful or precise silicon crystal production method, for instance, may make it worthwhile.

Well, I know the difference between alkaline, NiCd, NiMH, and lithium batteries, and that they don’t grow on trees, so at least I have that.

Well, the downside of this not being a 4x game is that sometimes research doesn’t pan out, and you don’t know which ones until after you’re done.

We’ve had 3 major changes in battery chemistry in the last 45 years. Energy density, lifespan, cost, and dangerous materials have all generally improved. We also have 2 new battery technologies in the process of becoming generally commercially available. Also, batteries went from 500 mAh batteries about the size of your smartphone to 3000 mAh as a minor component of that same smartphone, about an order of magnitude in energy density.

No, that’s why we use the same batteries Voltaire did on his frogs.
