Convenience and security.

Authenticator apps are still vulnerable to phishing, passkeys are not.

Like, you know he’s not personally involved in the design or manufacture of these things right?

Just don’t look up who made the design changes to stainless steel, aerodynamic flaps or tower capture.

The(y) didn’t pioneer reusable rockets

They did pioneer reusable orbital liquid fueled rockets, closest before that was the space shuttle’s SRBs (solid fuel, dumped and fished out the ocean).

and they’re not cheap either. They’re expensive,

They are incredibly cheap to operate by rocket standards, the reason why they haven’t lowered the pricetag is:

a. Would absolutely be an anti-trust against them if they didn’t stay close to competitors (monopoly by simply being too good is a thing)

b. Capitalism baby, they have no real competitor so they can make a crazy profit (and because of point A they basically have to unless they want to be sued to oblivion).

and they’re floating on government grants

Contracts* They have government contracts. Government requests a service, SpaceX provides the service, SpaceX gets paid, simple as that. They have gotten subsidies to expand Starlink, but every ISP gets that and even then they have been declined it countless times because AT&T, etc. have lobbied against them.

SpaceX s(ti)ll hasn’t done anything hat wasn’t done better long before.

I’m sorry, what other rockets and space capsules can be reused? What other rocket can be returned directly on the launch pad?

They do party hard (wh)en a rocket of theirs explodes, which I never saw NASA do.

Because they see milestones being completed in the testing program, it’s about where it exploded (it was gonna explode either way, planned or unplanned).

They managed to get their super duper new heavy rocket in an uncontrolled spin in low earth orbit! I’m sorry, Noy impressed by results that are less than half of what -again- NASA did in the 60’ and 80’ of the last century.

NASA sent a 50m tall, 9m wide second stage that was designed to be fully reusable with full-flow staged engines and then transferred super-chilled fuel between tanks? Cool! Which system was that? Would love to read about it!

Yuzu and Citra are no more.

United Launch Alliance

GrapheneOS is a really easy process, hardest part is unlocking the bootloader (which isn’t hard at all).

Rest of the process is just clicking 3* buttons on a website and you’re done.

*Some buttons you have to click multiple times

They literally just need to enable it in the dev page of EAC and Proton handles the reat.

Were Valve to let its competitors implement SteamOS on their devices

…

Mullvad is by far the best for privacy since you can literally pay with cash and all your account is is a number. No email, no phone number (unless you pay with Swish), nothing at all identifiable except your IP.

The pricing is honest and very consumer friendly, although being more expensive than average. There is no subscription, just monthly cost with no special discounts to get you to buy it “cheaper”.

And they got raided by police and provided them with everything they had: Literally nothing.

Mouse gestures in Plasma.

Just draw a shape, make it mimic a keyboard shortcut, run a script, launch a program, whatever. Such a nice feature that I use constantly.

Who do you think they are?

Sega?

The minimum-recommended GPU for 540p 60FPS on medium settings is an RTX 3070.

Yes. 540p. without ray tracing.

Tell me again how that’s a realistic expectation.

I love what Futo is doing!

VoiceInput works great.

Matter of time until it’s included in GameScope.

There are only 110 supporters?!

Gotta rectify that…

I caught it a couple months ago. It absolutely sucked.

Not in details view and light theme, obviously.

Xtract Ze Vucking File!

Sequential order just means downloads files in sequential orders, you can’t for instance watch a 2 hour Linux ISO documentary until the file is downloaded.

There is a plugin for VLC which does allow this though, but I don’t remember the name of it. No need for external torrent software, just plop a magnet link in VLC, or a torrent file, and it’ll start streaming the legal Linux ISO documentary.
