I don’t disagree but it seems to me it’s going crescendo, with de facto monopolies running the show and buying anything that could be an obstacle, be it other companies or policymakers.
That there are such wild variations in price between countries shows how little that subscription is correlated to any actual costs.
At best subscribers in richest countries are subsidizing poorer ones, but most probably, Google is just trying to maximize the amount of money they can extract from everyone’s pocket. The repeated seemingly random price hikes seem to confirm this hypothesis. It’s just the MBAs enforcing terminal stage capitalism and ruining everything that is good.
what a punchable face
I’m really relieved we’re out of the uncomfortably skinny pants phase.
The partial pressure of oxygen in the Apollo 1 capsule was about 16.7 PSI.
I had always assumed they just compensated with oxygen pressure to match atmospheric partial oxygen pressure, but I checked and indeed you’re right, but it was only that high an oxgen pressure for testing purposes on the ground. Once in flight, they would have dropped it to 5 PSI. It also makes sense as to why that Apollo 1 fire was so violent. Thanks for that learning opportunity ! :)
Partial pressure of the gases you breathe is what matters though, that’s why astronauts could breathe pure oxygen for days during the Mercury/Gemini/Apollo missions and be fine (as long as there’s no fire :/ ).
There are 850k people living in La Paz, Bolivia (elevation 3650m) with the equivalent of 13.2% sea level oxygen and they seem to be doing just fine. And granted, the natives of the region display some hemoglobin adaptation, but still… Even Aspen, Colorado sits at about 15% sea level oxygen and I’m pretty sure people don’t wear breathing gear while skiing there.

Well, this is a post about flashlights, a growing number are using them. And since a type-c charging port is more and common on this type of devices, you don’t need to worry too much about how to top them up (though they fit in a bog standard Lii-500 just fine). Anyway i’m not contesting the ubiquity of 18650, I’m just saying 21700 might be the future.
Sure, but 21700 is a superior format. It’s barely larger than 18650 but thanks to the square-cube law, the stored energy is significantly higher. 18650 is usually around 3500mAh, whereas 21700 is more like 5000mAh.
An even realler lamp uses 21700 batteries

This guy could suddenly rupture a brain aneurysm and you wouldn’t even be able to tell the difference.
That’s not soup, that’s pasta with extra sauce.
Not to defend Musk, but the payout would be in stock options, so it wouldn’t really cost Tesla any cash. But that volume of new shares would probably devaluate other shareholders’ portfolio even faster that Musk’s erratic leadership already has in the last couple years.
Besides, NO ONE deserves this kind of money. Ever. This level of payout shouldn’t be normalized. I mean the guy doesn’t even work full time for that company !
Yes they can in fact say this. You do realize english is not the only language that exists or ever existed right ? Or that northern american culture is not hegemonic (yet) ?
Niger/nigra/nigrum is a latin word that simply means black or dark without all the prejudice attached to it in english, and believe it or not, variations of that root word still exist in a shitload of european languages and dialects to signify the exact same thing : a color.
To claim as you do that the denigrative usage of the word is the only understanding some farmer from the depths of the Urals should have is frankly preposterous.
