I believe the route was planned such that wherever you go, the weather was nice. It sounded amazing to me: travel the world, no home maintenance, no car maintenance, no commuting, no packing/unpacking, food included.

I wonder why they’re doing this.
I was really looking forward to the Balmuda phone, but it also disappeared from the market https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/11/meet-this-unique-compact-android-phone-from-a-japanese-toaster-company/
I’d like to see a more ergonomic phone; it’s time to evolve from just a thin slab.
So what is this made of if not lithium?
The one that irrationally bugged me was when Tripp told the captain that he lowered the chair by 1cm, and the chair was still too high for everyone who sat there… I know it’s not supposed to be noticable but I could tell somehow that it wasn’t lowered at all
Haha yes it’s overall very long, but the section on this specific question isn’t too long, just 3 pages.
Brookings did a long but very readable analysis about why this won’t work: https://www.brookings.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/11122022_GA_Investigation_Report_SecondEdition.pdf
I saw an argument that the “necessary and proper” clause in Article I, Section 8 lays out the authority quite nicely:
Congress has the power “to make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or any Department or Officer thereof”.
The Supreme Court would veto it as unconstitutional even if passed. https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2019/12/17/787476334/is-a-wealth-tax-constitutional
This is unconstitutional and based on incorrect comprehension of the 14th amendment. Gaetz is specifically leaning on the “and subject to” part in "born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.”
However, this is clearly referring to exclude children born to diplomats who are not subject to jurisdiction because of diplomatic immunity. The exclusion does not apply to children born to undocumented immigrants.
This is a Kendall Roy move.
Warrants are required for U.S. Mail. Likewise, the government should not have warrantless access to all electronic communication. It’s an outrageous position.
I really don’t even think the votes table would need to itself be federated; it could just be on the user’s instance. Upvote/downvote would be a call, but it should really only require the post or comment ID and voter instance. If an instance spams votes, those upvotes/downvotes could be deleted and the instance defederated
There might be possible technical solutions to this using hashing. Hashing is like encryption in that the original cannot be extracted, but the hashed result is unique.
For example, a solution would be to have a VOTES table with an indexed column that is a hash of a combination of the user ID, post ID, (and perhaps another “salt”, not sure). When a vote is made, the VOTES table is checked that the record (vote) does not already exist, gets an insert, and then a COUNTER is triggered for the actual vote count. (COUNTER is a db command that simply updates a counter). The hash would prevent multiple votes from the same user (as the salted hash is unique), and it would also prevent identifying who the user is from the table.
I’m surprised by the pushback (although I haven’t read the books and thus did not have any preconceived notions). I loved season 1 and have watched it multiple times. I love shows that builds a world, and this one does so epically. I also am intrigued by the immense time scales involved. I also thought the pacing of the mysteries introduced was very good (I’ve been a bit disappointed in Silo for that reason). Anyway, I can’t wait for season 2!
Since Toyota is way ahead with hybrids but behind with EVs, this would be a way to tell the public, “wait, don’t buy a competitor’s EV, because we’ll have something 100x better in a year or so.”
I hope I’m just being cynical, because solid state batteries do sound awesome. I wonder was the weight difference would be
Not just a small phone, but an ergonomically shaped phone is missing from the market. It would be great to have devices again that you can cradle in your hand and slip into a small pocket. Thin slabs are nice on a display shelf, but they aren’t human-centered. Give me a phone with a curved and grippy back and a 5.x inch display.
