I carry around PowerPoint presentations that contain huge loops of satellite data. I love my 1TB USB stick.

They currently live in the US. So, whether they properly answered your prompt seems to depend on your definition of “your country”.

Can you recommend some models to try?

It’s pretty amazing to me that a company hasanagednto become so reviled that Walmart is the better and more ethical option.

In a town where I used to live there was a row of businesses that went CasketMart > Mortuary & Crematorium > Sausage Shop. Never went to any of them.

Whether they have wifi on ship or not isn’t the issue. Sometimes, when a ship goes into an operation, they will turn off all signals except passive or directed signals so that they can’t easily be detected. Having a communications signal that isn’t under the control of the ship’s officers is a huge security risk during operations.

Someone is going to be court martialed over this.

Video tape isn’t really that durable over time. Most of the info I can find comes from digitization services, but they are fairly consistent in saying that, for tapes that are stored in “normal” conditions, you can expect 10-25% degradation in 20 years. These tapes are 40 years old. They have likely degraded significantly already and may fall apart when played.

There are places a skinny naked person can hide things. What do we do about that?

I don’t think they really query one another. Maybe they do though?

I wonder how undergrads would do on the same exams given unlimited time and internet access but with LLMs blocked. That’s essentially what the LLMs have.

I don’t agree with these religious nuts but, in this case, I don’t think they’re completely off base regarding “God given rights”. The Declaration of Independence (not the Constitution) says:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

I wish the Declaration didn’t include “by their Creator” but it does.

I wonder how this compares the the number of businesses that existed in 2013 that no longer exist. I wonder for two reasons:

• Is 38% similar to the typical rate of failure for businesses and other ventures?
• How much of the 38% can be explained by closure of high-risk businesses like restaurants?

Something else that could explain a lot of it is webpages that were always intended to be ephemeral. Political campaign websites for instance.

May I ask what service you switched to? I’m tired of my music app being cluttered with podcasts and audio books. I use other services for this things and don’t need them in Spotify.

Other instances hosted outside of Russia but available from inside Russia can still federated with them, though, right?

Oh, do you mean X the window manager or X the social media website?

The fact that a clarification like that needs to be made shows that Twitter has a branding problem.

Now, tell me which is which:

I don’t really disagree, but I think that was the original intent of the meme; to show Crowder as a complete chode by having him assert really stupid, deeply unpopular ideas.

The meme’s use has become too soft on Crowder lately, though, I think.

I’m fairly sure that the admins of lemmy.world said that we could expect a big spike in active users after the upgrade to 1.19 due to a change in how active users are calculated. I can’t seem to find the post now, though.

Babies never stop squirming, whether they’re smiling or crying or anything else. The only exceptions are if they are sleeping or sick and neither of those is a guarantee.

I do have a little one and have thought about the logistics at times. I’d never actually do this, but it as definitely entered my mind at times.
