It’s used for very minor repairs, in this case, a more permanent repair is under the tape, but is likely curing, so they slap some speed tape on it.

Speed tape never holds anything down, it’s just used to smooth over a surface, to allow better air flow.

Whatever is being covered by the speed tape will likely see more attention from maintenance later.

Fascism is just conservatism with the addition of hyper-nationalism and the blaming of minorities for all of society’s problems.

But the core belief, that some groups are inherently better than others, is exactly the same.

The definition is that Tesla is shit.

They’re selling a spotty lane assist as Self Driving when it is not.

Other companies are selling actual self-driving cars, (even if those companies are fucking up as well) but Tesla is nowhere near that level of autonomy. All because Musk cheaped out on the sensor package.

Teslas will never be self-driving, because they literally cannot detect the road and obstacles with just their little camera setup.

They should not be allowed to call it self-driving, or autopilot, or anything else that implies that you can take your hands off the steering wheel.

but you need to supervise it because you are both responsible and because it’s not perfect

Not self-driving then. Words have meanings.

Then it’s not “Full self driving”. It’s at best lane assistance, but I wouldn’t trust that either.

Elon needs to shut the fuck up about self driving and maybe issue a full recall, because he’s going to get people killed.

1.7% is more than enough to flip some swing states. Most swing states.

And two in particular have more than an average number of Puerto Ricans.

So yeah, it matters.

Or maybe some Russian State backed programmers have tried to slip in backdoors in various key systems, numerous times. Including one that almost went live on millions of machines.

The actual answer is at vaporization temperature. Which the satellite did not reach.

Eh, it’s honestly safer than you’d think. The size of the reactor plays a huge role in safety.

A reactor sized for a container ship would be literally incapable of melting down, because there just isn’t enough fuel to get to those temperatures. You could then limit the ship’s speed, and over build the reactor a bit, so that the reactor is never truly stressed during normal operation.

Then for refueling, you just remove the entire reactor and replace it with a new, fully fueled one every 10 years or so.

That’s where you want your controls.

Other than that, yeah it would be safer than oil. A crash just means your reactor casing gets wet.

The main worry is someone cutting into the reactor to take out the spicy rocks… and there are easier ways to get spicy rocks.

Fun fact, -40C and -40F are the same temperature.

Then 575K and 575F are the same.

Yup, those 15th century typesetters fucked up the language.

Why are people just repeating the same thing over and over?

Windows has always had broken versions. The old advice was to always skip every other version.

NT, Millennium, Vista, 8… 10… 11… More misses than hits really. And the bad updates are turning hits into misses.

If someone poured a shitload of money into it, and had actual humans on quality control and some writing… You could generate a setting with a bunch of NPCs who have generated back stories and connections and shit.

And it would still come out as some of the blandest of bland as for as game went. But hey, a bad game is better than no game right?

It also doesn’t take into account how Disney actually uses these movies.

Disney makes the bulk of their pure profit in the theme parks.

They just announced that they were dropping $50billion to upgrade the parks, with an expectation of making that back completely within 2-3 years.

The movies, are seen as giant commercials for new merch and Disney parks.

As long as the movie is seen favorably by the target age group (children who will want to go to Disney world) then it’s seen as a success.

Then scenes from the movie can be used in the theme parks.

As a note, the scenes used in the park, may have been made years before the movie was filmed.

Bots building post history in an abandoned looking sub. Usually done to get access to some other sub.

With the right looking post history you can scam your way onto a surprising large number of moderation teams.

Lenin betrayed the revolution. You mention the banning of the political parties. While it’s true that they “took up arms against Sovnarkom”, you’re leaving out the part where Lenin used Sovnarkom to coup the newly elected government because his party didn’t win.

Again, Lenin was flat out wrong. But I don’t think he ever actually cared about Russia ever reaching the true Marxist communist utopia. Lenin cared about power first and foremost.

He built up that dictatorship, and then handed it over to a monster.

Tried a bunch, but tried wrong.

The Lenin model of communism is inherently flawed for one simple reason. An Authoritarian Communism is an Impossibility. It cannot exist by pure definition.

The true ideal communism is a stateless utopia.

So yeah, the Lenin model is flawed to the point of uselessness. Or worse because any authoritarian government is going to kill its own citizens, while also being a low grade threat to neighboring countries.

No. The only path to true communism is via democracy. And there are countries that are moving in that direction.

What’s worse is the links to white supremacy in all this shit.

The origin of many of these ancient alien slash ancient apocalypse “theories” are 1900s Germany.

People who were looking for a “scientific” reason why Germans were the superior race.

The core thrust of every “ancient” whatever theory is that ancient people were idiots and had to be shown how to pile rocks into a pyramid shape or shit.

The imaginary people who “showed” ancient brown people how to do shit are always depicted as white.

Two main methods, the first is with a fishing pile like normal. The second is to get down into the water and feel up under the bank. If you wiggle your fingers a catfish will latch on, and you can just pull it out by hooking your fingers into the gills.
