tomatolung,

Anyone know what launch method is intended if the Taurus was given to the Ukrainians? Can the F-16 they have launch them? Or are they considering a modified ground launch method (similar to the GL-SDB)?

tomatolung,

Good choice, although the swiss aren’t selling to Ukraine apparently (veto’ed several transfers). There are a few other CIWS systems which would also be good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYJ2KKnl6kA

tomatolung,

Interesting! Any list of good TUI games on Linux?

Water is running again, ram pump installation year 2 (slrpnk.net)

A couple of years ago I built two ram pumps and installed them in the stream near my house. They pumped water for the garden for a few months during spring and summer. I’m okay with the fact that the pumps are just useful during part of the year, but didn’t really like damming up the entire stream for my installation, seemed...

tomatolung,

Agreed! Also where is this in the world?

tomatolung,

Yea, Planet Mechanics did a great show with one years ago.

I was wondering literally where this was, country and location.

tomatolung,

Arguably. Reading the comments on avhearld, the cowling latches to each other rather than to the frame and the latches themselves are very low and easy to miss. Airbus has tried to eliminate this potential oversight, whereas Boeing has not. So yes, potentially missed non walk around, but also a possible systematic design failure.

tomatolung,

Failures of design can lead to maintenance failures. Where as maintenance failures do not always stem from failures of design.

So not mutually exclusive in this case.

tomatolung,

Not going away from Proton myself, but yes this is damned infuriating. Although I’d deal with a reliable Android app. The Beta Android looks good, but why Proton has struggled so much with Android is beyond my current digging.

tomatolung,

Possibly, but in other social contexts (aka a cafe in Europe or elsewhere) time pressure might not be a priority. Having a single seating for the entire morning may not seem viable, but can be in some places.

tomatolung,

Mind you that’s mostly non-liquid accounting of his stock and assets. Not that he’ll have to worry about what he spends, but it’s not cash in the bank billions.

tomatolung,

Anyone else use NewsBlur Apps or WebApp. They have a free and paid, which works well enough to aggregate the sites I need to get a diverse news collection in an RSS like format.

I still miss google reader and past times, but gotta adapt.

tomatolung,

What feeds do you watch? Anything stand out? Thanks for the tip on the app!

tomatolung,

Great thoughts and proposals. Thank your for the history, insight, and forethought!

tomatolung,

While empathize with the sentiment, if pay alone is figured, $174k for two households (one in DC, one in their district) plus flights and etc doesn’t allow for a huge amount of savings especially if you are in a high cost of living district.

Now do they nearly always find ways to supplement that pay in legal ways, yes. But the question is do we want them beholden to those supplement ways? Or do we want them clear thinking and loyal to the voters who put them there?

tomatolung,

Factoring in the current year inital cost and MBTF, did you figure out an ROI on HDD vs Flash including Power and space?

tomatolung,

They say a good opening should capture the viewer… Well they slaughtered it here.

Proton Mail desktop should hide web and give desktop menus (lemmy.world)

I’m fine with the Proton Mail desktop client being an Electron app, but it still need to use desktop-based interactions. For example, when right clicking on the inbox, I expect to see options to mark all as read etc. - not an Inspect Element menu (that actually works and opens up devtools inside Proton Mail)....

tomatolung,

I’m assuming you’ve given this feedback to Proton?

tomatolung,

I wonder if this is what started Ukraine on the track to get the M1150 Assault Breacher Vehicle. The line charges in particular seem like they might help solve some of the momentum issues.

tomatolung,

As a seafarer who moves through the world, arguing out of timezones is an uphill battle. (Minus the half hour timezone insanity.)

Daylight savings on the other hand, can be dropped like the smelly turd it is.
