    We really don't. We can barely make it to orbit. Boeing is failing at even doing that.

    It's like saying your grandpa can climb Mount Everest because he can shamble to the local tesco. It's not even close.

    We can land corpses or soon-corpses on Mars sure. Getting people there and back reliably and in good shape is going to be extremely difficult if not completely impossible. And the benefit is near zero.

    He didn't engineer anything, nor did he do any trustbusting.

    At best he half understood what day it was when they gave him some documents to sign.

    Buying new, unreviewed products can save you money, since sellers often list things cheaper to get a few buyers and then increase the price.

    If you're buying something branded and it's less than 1/2 of the US price, be prepared for it to be different than in the photos.

  • Can windows see files in the Linux partition?

    We don't know.

    While Windows doesn't present the ability to read Linux filesystems to the user, that doesn't mean that it can't do it at all for some covert security state purpose.

    Forums and lemmy have very different user experiences. Forums tend to have long running threads, sometimes with tens of thousands of replies over years. They also bump up threads when there's a reply.

  • Okay, Wayland is the future, blah blah. Would it be possible/make sense to make a Wayland compositor that would emulate a X11 server so a X11 WM could talk to it and be used to manage windows? I'm just thinking about how we could make sure that the tons of obscure but cool WMs survive the waypocalypse.

    Are PressTV and RT banned? Is there a list of banned sites and tech used?

    I can't seem to access https://www.presstv.ir or https://www.rt.com Are these banned in the UK? Is there a list of sites banned in the UK (whether by ofcom or any other agency or company)? I couldn't find any news stories or discussions about this. How does the UK banning people from being able to access foreign news sites apparently just fly under the radar? What is the technology used? Thanks.
