Yet no planet to be found! And they’ve looked. I propose a micro black hole instead, much harder to spot with similar gravitational influences

CEO first please. He’s not worth it

This is clearly a tender fail. Byte code can be emulated for a fraction on that price. And it’s a two or three man job with a rota

F-Droid is the single biggest reason that Android is actually usable. And the only real reason Google aren’t getting sued for monopoly practices. If only ReplicantOS was more viable

DRM infected files mean that you as a consumer don’t own anything. As someome else can destroy it.

The power to destroy a thing is the absolute control over it

DRM violates this principle. Atreides forever

Everyone talked about tanks as ww1 winners. But people don’t quite realise the stupendous artillery advantage the allies had. 2 or 3 to 1 by the end of the war in places. And significantly more shells. There’s a reason we are still digging then up today

Yup, welcome to capitalism!

Pay peanuts get monkeys

No, maslows hierarchy of needs mandates a lack of savings equating with a lack of stability at lower tiers and hence your employees will fail to function at higher levels. So you need to pay more than minimum rates in every role, everywhere, if you want to actually have people and not worried as fuck drones.

Now, how much more depends on local factors - but here’s a quick rule: if they add value to your business pass on about 25% of that profit from that individual. Finding a profit for a person can be challening, this is why you get a HR person and accountants.

About fucking time

Yup, https://duckduckgo.com/?q=horse+gas+mask&t=fpas&iax=images&ia=images - loads of varities though I’m not sure on numbers deployed. Due to the rather static lines of defense I do believe the second world war actually saw more horses used! The nazis were always scrambling for oil and petroleum and thus they utilised stupendous amounts of horses

The thing about air: there’s a lot of it. Not many gases take that long to settle/dissipate. And a gas mask is pretty effective at filtering. I do imagine worst case scenario in the heaviest bombardment is a brief evacuation of current line of defense only, as this is what happened back in the somme. It was far more effective vs artillery: artillery regiments weren’t equipped as well and thus they were denied counter battery fire for enough time to allow front lines to cross no mans land. Which were backed up by creeping barrages, which I haven’t read much out in Ukraine yet

Gas in WW1 changed the battlefield for about 6 weeks whilst they scrambled for gas masks, but after this it didn’t have the effect either side thought it would. A stupid distraction that will earn Putin and his generals a trip to the Hague for sure

Wow, what’s the size limit going to actually be? 20MW is phenomenal from a single turbine, but what could we hit?

Too much wiggle room imo. If your business needs out of hours support: pay on call rates. Nobody should be contactable outside of office hours

openSUSE worth a consideration. More frequent releases than debian, but still pretty conservative

Also, obviously no

100% this isn’t a lost technology, it “just” needs some machines built

Only older people. I know of none under 50 using it still. Most use kg from my experience these days
