The vulcan gave the very non-vulcan advise to skip any diplomacy but to shoot first.
I haven't seen anything of Discovery yet so I could be speaking out my arse. The Vulcans in ST:E were nearly as trigger-happy and duplicitous as the Romulans, especially when Andorians were around.
I haven't found any diagrams or pictures of a Volocopter parachute deployment, however:
According to the specifications (https://www.volocopter.com/assets/pdf/2017_04_Design_specifications_2X.pdf) it's just labelled as a "full aircraft emergency parachute."
The overhead picture on this 2013 article shows a hump on top of the craft that is probably the stowed parachute - but this hump isn't present on the models being demonstrated in Dubai at the moment.
I am puzzled though about what gets "separated" here.
The rotor heads are attached to the parachute so that they land safely to be reused on the next taxi. i.e.: the passenger compartment falls to the ground and erupts in a Li-Poly fireball.
Then the problem becomes how a new sender with valid DKIM and SPF becomes verified.
They shouldn't be. We see plenty of spam that passes SPF and DKIM validation because it's very little effort for spammers to add that information when they're setting up their DNS records. It's clearly not difficult for them to spread DKIM keys through their botnets. Thankfully there are other "tells" that give away the majority of spam.
Hardly surprising given that Teams is an Electron application. This is also why #Slack is such a resource hog - it consumes about 1GB per Team because each team runs in its own extremely inefficient browser process.
I understand the desire for Write Once Run Anywhere but surely there are better platforms to use than Electron.
Typescript doesn't do anything to fix the if (a = 1) {... } class of bugs. These would go away if the compiler required a constant on the left hand side.
While you could have a trans-Pacific cable connecting Virginia Beach with Bilbao, Spain why would you go the long way round? In actuality this just shows that/. editors are dead between the ears.
Just to be pedantic... FAA's "part 135 operating requirements" require that oxygen be used above 12,000 feet MSL (with a bunch of variations based on flight duration and aircraft type), so the original sentence conflated cabin air pressure with altitude.
Actually AC's got a point. Ignoring kPa and PSI air pressure is commonly measured with mmHg or inHg. Bearing that in mind "cabin air pressure greater than 12,500ft" would be lethal. The/. editors are getting worse as time goes by.
Rather, they're talking about Ctrl-Alt-Del as the non-app-trappable sequence for triggering certain behaviors in Windows NT (login prompt, etc.).
If, by "non-app-trappable" you mean that a Windows application couldn't intercept it you're almost correct. The Control-Alt-Delete key combination was actually baked into BIOS and caused the system to jump to the Reset Vector to start the initialization/reboot sequence. Windows itself was actually grabbing the Reset Vector to prevent this behaviour but in earlier versions of Windows applications could still steal it away from Windows to run their own code. I think they only fixed this with the Windows NT 4.0 kernel.
On an Apple ][ we had a reset key. However it only would work in conjunction with the CTRL key.
That's not quite right. On the Apple ][+ and later you needed to use the CTRL key as well. Starting with Apple ][e series 2 (with the Open and Closed Apple keys) it was CTRL-OpenApple-Reset or CTRL-ClosedApple-Reset for diagnostics. On the original Apple ][, though, just the reset key was enough and was quite annoying.
"Fighting the good fight"... didn't they just take their toys and go home??
Yes. That's pretty much what I said when this story came up a couple of days ago, although other people have been paint this as a "straw that finally broke the camel's back" kind of issue. https://tech.slashdot.org/stor...
Finally, I've got my own additional point: the study was fundamentally flawed because it polled three nerd sites instead of the Ubuntu desktop users themselves.
Don't know about you but after having used Ubuntu desktop for over a decade I moved to other platforms and now only keep Ubuntu servers around.
I thought Android 7 "Nougat" and later didn't trust user-installed root certificates unless a particular app opts into trusting user-installed root certificates through the network security config file in the application's package.
You are completely correct. So your two options are:
As per your own link, add the CA to your app's config. If you're talking about your own apps then you already control those configuration files. If you're talking about other people's apps...
The.dev domains, on the other hand, are valid gTLD and are owned by Google. It's not surprising that Google wants to force HTTPS on a gTLD that they own.
I find that very sad. IMO EFF should be sticking around to continue fighting on other legal and freedom issues that are likely to pass through the W3C. Resigning after losing the EME fight stinks of the spoilt little child taking his bat and ball and storming off home in a huff after losing a game with the neighborhood kids. I thought the EFF was better than that.
What most people don't realize is that, even if you were in a plane crash, there's a very good chance you'll
survive.
No such luck in a hyperloop crash, I'm afraid. Remember that the carriages are travelling in an evacuated tube at 1/1000th atmospheric pressure. If the carriage was punctured in any way it would quickly become depressurized and everyone onboard with suffocate.
That said I think the chance of a hyperloop crash would be extremely remote. It's not like a train where even a slight derailment of one bogey is catastrophic for the whole train - hyperloop carriages will be travelling on a self-correcting maglev field.
I've seen people try this. Not everyone's successful with it but it's a step up from a "Donate" button on your project's home page. With the recurring billing on a monthly basis you're more likely to get a revenue stream just from people's apathy towards having to login to cancel it.
Not true. I bought a HP Pavillion 15-au616tx and that came with an SSD. I'd never buy another HP product, though, as it was DOA and took more than six weeks to be replaced with HP spending the first two weeks insisting they were only going to repair it and not replace it. Fuck 'em.
Link? I needed to install Flash on a Windows 10 machine to be able to watch screencast.com (Jing) videos that my dev manager sent to me so Windows 10+Edge does not come with Flash out of the box.
Have you considered making actual software instead of apps?
Mobile apps are still sofware. Sure they have a different form factor but often their audience overlaps the desktop market.
If someone has a use or need for an expense reporting app, they most likely have a PC of some sort.
Likely, yes. What about tradespeople and mobile support/salespeople? They all have mobile phones so that they're contactable. With the appropriate mobile app they can photograph receipts as they make purchases and send them to their accountants for up-to-date book keeping. (There are actually apps that do this already.) Beats keeping a pile of receipts in your truck that you'll probably lose or just forget about.
Just because it can be an app, doesn't mean it must be an app.
Totally agree. Apps are tools just like any other software and they should only exist to fulfill a purpose. Who'd want an integrated development environment on their phone, for example?

HP doesn't believe in SSDs.
Not true. I bought a HP Pavillion 15-au616tx and that came with an SSD. I'd never buy another HP product, though, as it was DOA and took more than six weeks to be replaced with HP spending the first two weeks insisting they were only going to repair it and not replace it. Fuck 'em.

To be fair the Republic of Singapore (at 719km2) is 1/20th the size of some other cities (e.g.: Brisbane in Australia is 15,842km2).
AC and all. If I had points I'd mod you up.
