The life-bearing debris would have to arrive quite some time after formation of Earth, as it was molten. Surviving atmospheric entry is hard, surviving after landing in lava is impossible.

You might know them as street racers and/or "these assholes with loud pipes at 3AM".

Teslas also require a couple of OoMs more interventions driving the same distance than Waymos.

This is not supported by crash data. In Australia alcohol is involved in some 30% of fatal crashes. A lot of crashes are caused by a very small number of hoon drivers, distracted drivers etc. Autonomous cars beating the average that include

GBM/DRM Kodi supports HDR video on the Orange Pi 5 family. You can grab whatever audio from HDMI or plug whatever in the usb port, the only advantage of this Vero is the optical out.

Any SBC like Radxa Rock (cheap) to Orange Pi (powerful). 4k output, a linux you control, play retro games or stream torrent movies.

The argument against "they can do something else with their lives" is not a strawman though. In a hypothetical end state where the people who own fully-automated production of everything, and need maybe few millions employed to su

As a kid I'd often start reading books from about the middle, if I liked it, I'd restart from the beginning before I finished, if I didn't, I got another book.

I don't know. The website does what it needs to and doesn't do anything to annoy me.

Creativity and originality? Like when you try to scroll a page and it rotates an image gallery instead?

IBM is more than 100 years old, has defined a huge part of how we think about computers, made plenty of its employees and workers of the wider field rich, has sold many businesses it considered distracting, and is still worth $200B+. Anyone

At least Victoria and NSW treat ubers exactly like private cars in terms of child restraints. "Cannot carry safely" is valid defence for whatever discrimination suit I believe. Then again, plenty of Uber drivers carry a booster se

Nope, see above - 144 vs 80-90 right this moment, taxi is way more expensive.

13cabs, a licensed cab operator, just gave me an estimate of AUD144, UberX 79, Uber Comfort 90.

A taxi to the airport in Melbourne was >AUD100 from where I am more than 10 years ago. An Uber is ~AUD70 still, past all the subsidies.

LED clocks, alarm motion sensors, bluetooth speakers and whatever other appliances also get a bit warm. How would you tell a legit device from one with a milliwatt camera?

I understand the sentiment, but there are limitations. You can't make a wheelchair-accessible treehouse, but that's not an argument against treehouses. Democracy is about letting people do whatever they want, the laws that forbid

The "dissidents" are in plain view, you don't need flock to identify them. Track them down, catch some traffic violations to throw the book for - maybe.

Let's also shoot anyone we don't like with poison gas shells, take hostages from our own population and work a few hundred thousands to death for good measure.

Imagine being incensed by use a pejorative term used towards a movement that almost always killed more people in peacetime than even fascists. Remove outliers like Hitler and Pol Pot and you can drop "almost".

It shouldn't really matter. If you have the proclivity to sit on your bum for hours monitoring many parameters at a time and making decisions you're a much better fit to be trained up for ATC than someone picked at random.

For anyone contemplating the same, go play paintball for half a day. You don't just get killed every other round like in Arma, the "death" it's somewhat painful, you get out of breath and start valuing any semblance of c
