Rather than criminalizing more substances we should legalize more to apply a uniform standard.

A dedicated group of people with some engineering knowledge and an achievable amount of money could easily launch a missile into space. Getting to space is easy, staying in space is what's hard. You don't even need a warhead, as long as the missile intersects the data center's orbit, just hitting it at speed will have the same effect as a bomb.

The point is moot though, as data centers in space is a complete fantasy that will never happen.

>group of people with some engineering knowledge and an achievable amount of money could easily launch a missile into space<

ie. people like the German Isar Aerospace Startup, which raised 800 Millions just to get 2 launches done?

No - space is hard.

Staying in space is much easier when orbiting the sun.

BASED. I'm going to feel a lot better about getting software from Flathub from now on.

An AI generated poster signals low effort. If you're too lazy or too cheap to make a real poster it makes me wonder what other corners have been cut.

Where do you draw the line?

Does a restaurant that doesn't grow its own vegetables "too lazy or too cheap?"

Wow Maps is cool, I had no idea this was on my computer.

Games, especially multiplayer games, should start using CSPRNGs and hash functions for random events. This has in particular been a problem for Minecraft where people can reverse-engineer coordinates from screenshots of natural terrain. Most games don't need so much randomness that performance is an issue.

If you were living in 1992 and already had a good TV you probably would turn down something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpBMLFLjNx8

How many flights are you people taking that it's cutting into your work time? When I fly I just read a book.

For me it's more that flights are extremely boring. I find watching any movies or TV shows on a plane to be a horrible experience. The noise of the plane can ruin even the best of movies.

Maybe better for a train; the benefit is that when you unfold your bike for the last mile, you just put your work into partial transparency and navigate using the external cameras.

The seal between the piston and the cylinder isn't perfect, so when the engine runs combustion products will mix with the oil, making the oil eventually unusable. That's why ICE engines meed oil changes so often.

And in fact it is necessary for it to be imperfect, and the oil is what lubricates the interface. So it is necessarily exposed to lots of heat and pressure.
