I’m not really into the idea of moving everything to a baby Google, even if they’re currently good about privacy. They just added an AI tool to email and a crypto wallet, which could be either awful or great signs depending on your perspective.
I was kind of hoping for Impulse Space, but they’re probably too unproven.
One of Starship’s engines on the lowest setting would tear the station apart. Regardless of whether they make this based on Starship instead of something more reasonably sized like a Dragon or Falcon 2nd stage, it’ll still need either a new engine design or a big cluster of Dracos. It’ll be something custom.
Regarding their Artemis work- the payments are milestone based, so they get money as they pass milestones. Engine relights and ship to ship prop transfer are some of the next ones.
Regarding their other customers- the Starship manifest includes another moon cruise, several satellite launches, and a lot of Starlinks.
Serious answer- SpaceX is building the deorbit vehicle then turning it over to NASA, who will have full control over it.
There’s no way Russia builds a new station. The timeline for them getting Nauka to orbit basically proves that it’s impossible. They’ve been trying to buddy up with China to visit theirs, though.
And it will hallucinate and give wrong answers
Wirecutter and RTINGS both do a lot of testing and reviews, including for headphones.
I set my phone to auto download playlists and podcasts on WiFi, so it isn’t really a problem. I think there was one month when I had to buy extra data so far, and that still ends up being cheaper than being on a plan with more data.
I got mine a little over 4 years ago and am still on the original toner. It gives low toner warnings but just keeps on printing.
I used Edge a bit at work because it feels like Office365 stuff runs better on it, but that might be placebo.
Same. The tab sync from desktop to mobile is also really cool.
This is kind of tangential, but white noise backup alarms are neat.
Tab groups?
“Security as a Service”
I’ve brought up other services with some of my active groupchats, but nobody else cares or wants to switch. Soooo I’m stuck in Messenger+Whatsapp, Discord, Groupme (Microsoft), and Slack (Salesforce). At least I got out of Snapchat?
…Meta owns Whatsapp
Out of curiosity, why are you trying to get rid of Firefox?
I dumped Chrome to switch to Firefox a few months ago and haven’t really had any problems with it. I miss tab groups on mobile, but that’s about it.
One of the use cases on Reddit is to tag titles that are misleading/wrong/changed, which doesn’t matter as much here where titles can be edited.
I definitely agree about community specific tags. Filtering by, for example, community announcements, news, or discussion posts can be pretty helpful on bigger communities. We could self-enforce that for searchability with [terms in brackets], but a drop-down to select tags would be a lot smoother.
I think those other things exacerbate the fear in “AI”. Like, on top of all of that other stuff, some fancy new software is starting to take jobs in writing, journalism, art, voiceovers, etc.
There are private/paywalled Discord servers and forums out there, too, so this could replace some of those. I think the Reddit format is better than a lot of alternatives, so I don’t actually hate this idea.
