Call me crazy but hoping for two innocent astronauts to die on the off-chance things improve isn’t something I would consider morally gray.

Yeah that’s right, they’ve decided to not use one of the 5 again because of performance inconsistencies.
The people in every one of these Starliner threads seemingly hoping for the worst case scenario to occur just so they can dunk on Boeing for it are disturbing
Completely untrue. There are currently only 3 human-rated spacecraft docked to the ISS and none of them are set aside as some sort of emergency capsule. There’s no trickery here. The number of astronauts on board is equal to the number of seats available for them to ride back home in. The only reason they aren’t stranded is because Starliner is still fully capable of undocking and taking them home whenever necessary. If it wasn’t, then they would actually be stranded with no alternative way back beyond straping them to the floor of Dragon.
They scrubbed, investigated, found it was acceptable, launched, and discovered previously unknown issues. The original leak isn’t getting worse, they discovered more, smaller leaks, that still don’t pose a danger to the mission.
Discovering the cause of the 5 RCS thrusters shutting down with only 4 of them being able to restart is the current focus of things, because the spacecraft is no where near running out of helium.
It’s all still within the scope of this test flight’s objectives, so they technically aren’t wrong to say things are going well even when they’ve found issues.
As Business Insider previously reported, helium supports Starlink’s reaction control system thrusters, which allows them to fire.
Can’t even get the spacecraft’s name straight
It’s opt-in because it’s a beta
This headline makes me think maybe AI isn’t as useless as I once thought
I don’t know how far things have come since the aptly named Acer AH101-D8EY, but that was the last time I tried to be “productive” in VR and it was absolutely not working.
IIRC, these things exist to exploit a legal loophole around vehicle registration in Japan as well. Safety is not the highest concern lol
Do they have a case here? Are they entitled to have that money returned if they paid it out already?
They go to cloud storage for 90 days. You can then save it locally from the Xbox website or app.
What do their TVs run on now if they aren’t updating Tizen anymore?
I think I’ve mentioned the HDR issue in every comment I’ve made about my attempts to daily drive Linux, but I’ve never seen anyone get mad about it. It’s also not the make it or break it issue that’s keeping me from switching full-time though.
Are there ways of doing that reliably?
Yeah sharing fun clips or a screenshot from a game you’re playing seems as valid as posting any other video or picture you’ve taken to social media.
I’m not sure I follow. The comment I was replying to said Valve’s 30% cut isn’t being put towards buying yachts, but it is. Apparently racing teams too. Whether they’re doing good things for linux gaming or not, Gabe is still a billionaire and he sure spends the money like one.
The cartoonish artstyle might hide it a bit, but Fortnite is basically Epic’s showcase of all the newest Unreal Engine tech. The move to UE5 a couple years ago brought with it all those new features and a huge leap in graphics. Fortnite has been around for a long time now, so the minimum performance targets are probably changing as tech and average system hardware improve. I don’t actually play it, but it’s pretty much a different game now compared to when BR mode was first released.
Uh, not to take away from your point about Steam making it possible to ditch Windows, but that money is absolutely being put towards buying yachts. Gabe Newel owns $1 billion worth of yachts, 6 of them in total. Like, good on Valve for making Linux accessible, but the money is still quite literally going towards Gabe’s yacht collection.
I’m not talking about people who just want Boeing to fail, I’m talking about the ones who think the best path to changing things is if they publicly kill two astronauts. eg. See the “morally gray” comment below
