For comparison, Voyager 1 is almost 24.8 billion km away from Earth right now and has been traveling since 1977 (near on 50 years).

Haven’t read the article yet, but if the headline is anything to go by, very cool if it can be done.

Edit:

Just read the article. Disappointingly but unsurprisingly:

The paper defined an ideal power plan that can output 1 kW per kg of weight.

This is currently well outside the realm of possibility, with the best ion thruster power sources coming at something like 10 W per kg and even nuclear electric propulsion systems outputting 100 W per kg. Some potentially better technologies are on the horizon, but nothing tested in the literature would meet this requirement yet.

You may need to log out and log back in for the addition of the sudo group to take effect.

The default config sudo should be fine, but if the above doesn’t work then you may also want to look up “visudo” to check/modify the sudo config.

However, if you’ve been following Android platform development news lately, you may have heard of something called the trunk stable project. Without getting too technical, the way that Google develops Android has significantly changed. The first Android version to be released as part of the trunk stable project was Android 14 QPR2 back in March, which is why that release used a very different build ID naming scheme. Instead of having build IDs that started with the letter “U” for Upside Down Cake, Android 14 QPR2 had build IDs that started with the letter “A.”

Robinson was making an appearance at the Mayberry truck show in Mount Airy when he was injured, campaign spokesperson Mike Lonergan said in a statement.

Robinson was treated at Northern regional hospital in Mount Airy for second-degree burns, he added.

The rest of the article is fluff.

Specifically, watchTowr researchers were able to receive a verification link for any domain ending in .mobi, including ones they didn’t own. The researchers did this by deploying a fake WHOIS server and populating it with fake records. Creation of the fake server was possible because dotmobiregistry.net—the previous domain hosting the WHOIS server for .mobi domains—was allowed to expire after the server was relocated to a new domain. watchTowr researchers registered the domain, set up the imposter WHOIS server, and found that CAs continued to rely on it to verify ownership of .mobi domains.

So, it was a takeover attack for a TLD registry that wasn’t properly retired…

Looks a bit like the house from Stranger Things.

The Matrix and Jurassic Park come to mind.

I wonder what will happen to the four sealed bags. If the crown maintains possession of the three sealed bags, the couple will surely be pretty upset that they won’t get access to the cash in the two sealed bags. Not that they would be able to do much with one sealed bag of cash anyway.

Must be a problem with floating point precision.

Just wait until they hear about motor-homes.

Joe Emerson had been struggling over the death of his best friend, Scott, a pilot who died while on a run six years earlier. Emerson had been away for the weekend with friends, celebrating and remembering Scott.

…

On Friday night, the group took psychedelic mushrooms – a drug that can make you hallucinate and typically has effects that last a few hours. Emerson said that for him, the physical side effects lasted days, and the consequences a lifetime.

…

“There are two red handles in front of my face,” Emerson recalled. “And thinking that I was going to wake up, thinking this is my way to get out of this non-real reality, I reached up and I grabbed them, and I pulled the levers.”

I thought that was…

There are many misconceptions about the rules of a president choosing their running mate. There’s no law or regulation against a president and vice president of the United States being from the same state. The reason why some people mistakenly believe such a prohibition exists comes down to a particular aspect of the Electoral College system laid out in Article II of the U.S. Constitution.

Article II states: “The electors shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for two persons, of whom one at least shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves.”

Under the original system, electors did not distinguish between candidates for the nation’s top two offices; the candidate with the most votes became president, while the runner-up became vice president.

The 12th Amendment, adopted in 1804 after two chaotic elections, mandated that electors cast separate ballots for president and vice president. However, the rule preventing an elector from voting for two people from his home state remained in effect under the new system.

The second case that begins next month began with a lawsuit filed in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia by the Justice Department and eight states in December 2020, during former President Trump’s administration.

Prosecutors allege that since at least 2015 Google has thwarted meaningful competition and deterred innovation through its ownership of the entities and software that power the online advertising technology market.

‘They’re apparently not as high quality as you’d think,’ he said before zooming into the chipping colors. ‘It’s looking rough.’

While the back of the medal was significantly more damaged, the font was not safe from the chipping either, as Huston flipped it over for the camera.

As an Australian, kindly have your weird politicians keep us out of this. Besides, nuking the wildlife will only make it stronger. Do you want flying spiders?

My partner suggested this to me once and I thought, “nothing to lose” so I gave it a go.

Correlation does not imply causation, so I can’t guarantee that the sugar is doing anything at all, but every time except once I’ve had a teaspoon of sugar with hiccups, they have stopped.

To that end, I’ll be doing it as long as it keeps on seeming to have an effect.

Please consider talking to someone for support. Some places you can contact include lifeline, and beyond blue. I am not equipped to provide the kind of support that you need, but I really, really hope that you will consider talking to someone who can help you.

It would be really lovely if they would stop cancelling stuff.
