There are designs for a giant glass cone put in the middle of the desert. Air under the cone gets warmed and it rises up through a couple turbines on its way out of the device.

Meanwhile in Georgia (USA) they completed a new nuclear power plant and they have to raise rates because it went 100% over its $14 billion budget.

“In a frictionless vacuum”

If they worked for democratic cooperatives and not dictatorial corporations they would have power to raise their pay and work less.

Oddball is the greatest tank commander in film and I will die on that hill while shooting shells full of paint and blasting music

The fact that KSP2 is still on Steam for $50 is criminal

For a long time nuclear power was going to make electricity so cheap it wasn’t worth billing. Turns out they were right, the reactor is just 92 million miles away

Worf was as good of a father as he could have been to that whiny little shit

If you think this is sad you should hear what happened to Sojourner, our first Mars rover. If it lost contact with the base station it was programmed to drive around to hopefully get line of sight so it can keep doing science.

However, the base station - Mars Pathfinder - failed first. Scientists didn’t know what happened to them until the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter got detailed shots of the landing site. There were far, far more tracks from Sojourner than expected.

So this poor little robot was driving around and around, trying to get back in contact with NASA because it had more science for us, until it too died.

I just watched the movie because there were boobies.

That kinda makes sense. Putting all the partition sectors together would probably make it easier to resize. But as standard maintenance it’s like changing the oil on an electric car.

Most modern OSeses do defragmentation on the fly and you don’t really need to do it anymore.

Which makes me sad because I have so many memories of watching a disk defragmenter do its thing from my childhood.

I wouldn’t trust it unless I wrote it myself. And even then maybe not.
