That one pic with Solar eclipse is amazing. Especially with the visible stars in the background. it's rare to see a pic from a man missioned with stars being visible in the background.
Do you honestly believe that by repurposing money from missions like these would suddenly free up money for text books? That’s not how it works. Especially not in 2026.
North Korea executes its own citizens and anyone that speaks out against the Kim regime. It also has nukes and even occasionally even fires missiles over our allys. I can name a few other countries that have harshly responded against protestors in recent years. Why aren’t we attacking them? Trump vowed that the U.S will no longer be the world police. Using your rational , this is the U.S being the police. Disclaimer - I voted for Trump believing what he said about staying out of conflicts like these. I’ve come to the realization that I made a mistake.
Yeah, I think that's a assumption Apple made that most AppleTV devices would be in the same household where people can simply use the streaming app's ability to switch profiles. That sucks if you have roommates that pay for their own streaming subscriptions or the AppleTV device is in a common area such a dormitory. I suppose they could solve this by allowing ad-hoc profiles if AppleTV and user's IOS device is on the same network.
Windows file search has been useless as far back as I can remember. Especially file indexing and the load it puts on the CPU. I usually just disable file indexing on a new windows install.
>GenX? Yeah, it's not just the Boomers despite the memes.
No its not. This is pure ageism on your part. You either don't know much about GenX or are just making it up. Both generations are vastly different. GenX being the smallest generation has very little influence on the economy , politics or culture.
My son, an 18 year college student with no legal issues ever (except a speeding ticket) - had his Global Entry revoked last year. For no apparent reason. We filed an appeal and are waiting for a response. From everything I've read on it, it seems it could take upwards of 18 months to get a response. But per the article you linked, it seems that less than half are able to get it reinstated. So I'm not really hopeful.
I read somewhere that Google has largely abandoned support for their Coral TPUs? I still use a Coral TPU for Frigate NVR. But not sure how long they'll be supported.
There are dozens and dozens of NUC style / form factor machines available these days. Especially cheap ones from China. Not sure what you mean by gaping hole post 2023. I'm running 3 of them with N97 and N150 Cpus. All bought within the last 18 months.
PC gaming is a small single digit percentage of the total volatile memory market. Neither Samsung or micron or Hynix currently have any incentives to increase production to address the shortage and lowering prices for that segment of the market. It’s just not a money maker for them.
After I read this article, I realized that I have a huge backlog of unplayed/partially played games in my steam library. Significant chunk of those games are from Indie devs. Probably enough games to last me a year or two. Plus, most of them seem like they will run just fine at max to high settings using my 3080 Ti on a 1440p display. Point is, I really need to stop looking for the next hardware refresh so I can keep playing newer big budget titles. This and current memory prices made it easy for me to forget about upgrading for the next 2-3 years.
I got into ST about a year or so before samsung acquired them. Amazing ecosystem at the time and the ST community was great. I even taught my self groovy, so I could write my own device handlers. Then it went down hill couple of years after the acquisition. I still have my gen 2 ST hub and have been slowly trying to pivot towards HA. How easy is it to integrate ST into HA? I have a bunch older zwave wall switches and few other sensors that are tied into ST. But I really hate the ST app.
I remember paying $250+ to some company out in CA and shipping my Xbox to them. Recommended by some friends. A week later it came back modded and a new HD installed. Along with a 10 page guide on how to use xbmc. Including mounting a remote windows share using smb. Or transfer the media files to the Xbox via FTP. This was around 2004. At the time, there wasn’t any easy way to play downloaded or ripped content on a TV from over the network. So a modded Xbox was a game changer.
