Fun fact: Columbia, pictured with the white tank, was the heaviest shuttle and was not modified to have the airlock necessary to dock with the ISS because the performance losses compared to the other shuttles made it difficult to use for ISS operations.

The government is. What did I do as a Native American just trying to live my life and not voting for the current administration? And what does that have to do with cars?

Where do you think white people came from? Hint: it wasn’t America.

America is not the only car centric culture. What is up with all the ‘America bad’ bullshit on Lemmy lately?

Also, I literally live next to a fully separated bike lane in an oil state…

Honda had the Clarity.

I was confused by your list until I remembered that they didn’t change the Winter Olympics to being a different year than the Summer until 1992.

To me this just feels like the next step of ‘shipping a game before it’s finished’.

You can do that as part of an OAuth workflow. You don’t need to have them on separate pages for that to happen.

Idiocracy is about what happens after the current time when smarter more level headed people are trying to put the pieces back together. We are in the prequel era, things are going to get worse before they get better.

Though this does vary by locale, in most places legally it’s only permanent if you have to leave it there when you move.

For a permanent installation, yes, just like a large solar installation. But I can go down to Lowe’s and get a gas generator capable of similar output as the balcony solar and it won’t require any permits.

No it isn’t. The same thing happens with the kind of gas generators you can get from your local hardware store all the time.

Obviously. I was just pointing out that it isn’t an issue unique to solar.

The same thing that currently happens when somebody does that with a gas generator? Linepersons get zapped… people get sued… etc…

There isn’t any data transmission over the wires…

That’s very wrong. Not only can you extend Ethernet in your own home using your power outlets, the power companies have been reading meters this way for decades.

What’s masculine about it? My wife does this to me all the time.

Ugh…

Recently or are you talking about the 1987 movie Masters of the Universe?

I think most people don’t realize that Usenet is older than the World Wide Web. It’s still a thing because it wasn’t corporatized like the Web was.

AT&T used to include Usenet access as part of your Internet connection since both Usenet and the Web are on the Internet but they quit doing that some years ago (back in the halcyon days of DSL).

Why is the text all blurry?

… no undo…

Have you thought about adding the erasable pen libraries?

This feature debuted on the Moto Atrix in 2011. There was even a version of Ubuntu that could use the feature.
