If you have the hardware for it, you can set up moonlight and sunshine and make your own open source cloud gaming setup. I’m getting very close to moving my primary desktop into a server case and putting it in my rack and setting up a thin client for access at my desk. I have easy access to my steam library and can stream 4k in my home with very low latency, and it can do 1080p over a mobile connection

Strands #241 “How sweet!” 🔵🔵🔵🔵 🔵🟡

They never said it wasn’t, just that we should start with the 1% and only once they are back down to a realistic wealth level do we start taxing people who are working class. At a decent pay rate (100k/yr) a million is achievable over a career, a billion is not and can only be had through consolidation of wealth.

Trump is a figurehead and mouth piece only, it’s clear the backing and power behind him is pushing him, not the other way around. If Trump is dead or unelectable then they will sub in someone else. Trump’s “saving grace” is that he was good at speaking in a relatable but obfuscating way which worked to foment the masses against imagined grievances, but that’s not a trait unique to him. He is unfortunately replaceable with not much loss in momentum.

Probably trees around the impact area.

Aircraft Maintenance Controller, I coordinate and advise on the maintenance operations for a fleet of cargo 737’s and 767’s. It’s a lot of auditing and making sure everything is done right, but also troubleshooting advice and on the operations side it’s a lot of making a plan to keep the flight schedule as intact as possible while still handling maintenance issues.

Dishonored series was pretty good at offering and rewarding a peaceful playthtrough. It was definitely the more difficult option but usually worth it.

I think that would also see an eventual reduction in device costs eventually as more people will be unable to pay the premium costs of a flagship device. Or the mid tier devices will start selling more, androids popularity will probably rise too, matching the rest of the world

It’s only a thing if you are on some form of lease plan where you don’t own it outright. Pretty much every carrier in the US sells phones on a monthly payment for the device, which usually is just the cost of the device spread over 30 months, etc. While the device is still not paid off its carrier locked. After its paid off you need to jump through a few hoops but it’s honestly not too hard. I’m not sure what the FCC is hoping to accomplish here, it’s a similar arrangement to leasing/financing a vehicle, where the dealership holds the title till it’s bought/paid off.

Exactly my experience as well, I work in a very conservative industry and everyone who mentions rank choice voting blames the R losses on it. The first vote with it, it was clear that they had their head in the sand about how it worked because they thought it would fail, then came the “Rank the red” which didn’t work. It’s very surprising to them when people don’t vote the way they think they should. Their whole attitude is very childish and tribal.

Also it’s cool to see another Alaskan on here.

I’m not sure it would survive a repeal measure vote, any conservative support it seemed to have has eroded because it hasn’t worked in their favor and their team keeps losing. I’ve even heard it blamed for elections that weren’t ranked choice like the Anchorage mayoral election. We’ll see how long it lasts but I’m not hopeful

Yaw damper is on MEL, deal with it

Aircraft maintenance here, even a tiny drone can cause a lot of damage and potentially cause the aircraft to be down for maintenance for a long time. The rotor blades are tough and would probably be ok to get back to the ground with a tiny 250g drone strike but would require inspections and could possibly damage the rotor beyond continued service and require replacement, which may not be on hand. Anything larger and it could be catastrophic

Fairbanks, AK made the list not for smog or other hydrocarbon pollution but for wood smoke in the winter. The cold air settles over the town and traps the smoke particles in a haze.

It is in half the world, but Israel is in the northern hemisphere so the wrong half for that line of thinking

I saw two guys riding those monowheel things in 5 pm traffic on a 50mph road today, didn’t know they could go that fast, it was crazy

While I can’t say I’ve paid more for less as a whole, I’ve definitely had a higher fun to dollar with SC than many other more finished, flashier games. It’s what you make of it and the people you meet along the way, just like any other MMO. It definitely has its warts and issues, but I think a lot of people also hate it because they were told it was bad and evil and I don’t think that’s really true. It has the trappings of any large game service products which people call greedy but it does cost a lot to run. I think a lot of the criticism boils down to that’s a lot of money and not a lot of fast progress, and that’s fair but this game is also unique in being public from a far too early point of development and many other games with smaller scopes are just as slow when developing a new engine/IP (relative to the scope) but the public doesn’t see much until we get to just about this point in development.

DSP is pretty good, definitely feels like 3d factorio but has a bit of a different philosophy on how production and logistics work. The latest major update added enemies and military management to the game, which gives it a better focus for your production.
