That's mostly true for those who would quickly abandon the whole thing anyway.
To me, a steep learning curve rarely played a role when i was truly interested in something.
Best example is vim, i guess.
EEG is sensing passively, sure, but the display is transmitting actively. 10 images per seconds, via eyes right into the brain. meh. sustaining such a shitstorm for longer than short..doesn't sound particularly healthy to me
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.
I should've read grandparent before posting. Turned out parent wasn't mocking on wget, but rather stated it as a suggestion. He implied a windows user could possibly have a geek badge, probably that was what confused me. I.e. i didn't realize that it's a windows context, disregard me.
You're an even better example, since even if it is exactly 100, there's nothing wrong with saying 'about 100'. It would only be wrong the other way around.
Well, what you say makes sense, but your computer analogy is flawed. I guess nobody is talking about assembling new Satellites *only* from those recovered parts. Fair enough, that'd be a pretty tough task.
My point is, eventually the manufacture of spacecraft like satellites is to eventually be shifted into space anyway. I think you are exaggerating the hurdles which must be overcome in order to do that. There are even simplifying factors, think clean room, pretty easy to achieve in space. I don't see the deal-breaker (ignoring costs) in docking such a module to the ISS (or yeah, fair enough, docking the ISS to such a module), in order to start manufacturing satellites right there. Recovering used satellites would serve the purpose off having potentially reusable parts right on-site. They wouldn't be needed to be 'hacked' into existing designs, they could just be considered for use in existing designs. And you do realize that while there is no standard or anything for satellites, at the very base they work mostly all the same, and they do have large overlaps in what parts where used. Think solar panels.
Capturing withough inflicting damage seems rather hard, a major part of it being the approach + synchronization with the satellite.
That being said, why would disassembling and reusing existing parts be "hard. very hard"? How would it be harder than the normal process of developing and deploying a sat?
> but the gear lever takes a decisive action
Oh noes, is this actual American wisdom on how to drive w/ manual transmission? How ironic. No wonder the cliché is you don't drive automatic for no reason. (Yeah, mod me troll)
FWIW, you should go easy on the gear lever (while there's no need to be gentle with the clutch in any situation other than starting, it just causes the clutch to wear out more quickly). Being 'decisive' with the gear lever will shorten the transmission's lifespan, the slower you shift, the more time the gears have to properly synchronize. Of course, being *too* slow will similarly cause unnecessary wear inside the gearbox, so the optimal shift (for no performance or racing purposes) is a nice and smooth, gentle move. If the lever resists, you're doing something wrong, don't force the gear.

Oh no, a steep learning curve on a device which is intended to encourage learning. Seriously.
and miss potential threats? no way the military would do that. i guess they'd rather try to counter it with some drugs

screw you for triggering that nostalgia in me :3

someone might have the idea to sell robots, though
Yeah, or two, for even higher accuracy!
Troll harder

what's wrong with wget?
son,
u r the h4x
is that dangerous?
I'm no compiler either, but what you said doesn't make any sense whatsoever

Thanks for playing
Damn this makes me wanna be a lunar cow for sure!
And which insurance company will insure this relatively incalculable risk, and at what price?
Probably the same insurance companies which insure the equally (or even more) incalculable risk of human drivers.

Your comment is wrong and overrated.

yeah disregard the mars..
...given that lithium batteries are notoriously unstable? I'd sure as hell not wear that.
And your point is what exactly? You're not going to fit the entire thing into your RAM are you?
I'm sorry but 2gb is plenty of memory. It only seems low because of the damn bloatware you're used to.
