Ehh, shootings even happen in Europe and coincidences too.

I always liked Terminator because of the easy splitscreening.

Yeah I’m glad that some series (Pixel AFAIK) are now releasing slightly smaller phones, because the growth was getting ridiculous and highly impractical.

Many “space” fuel tanks have inflatable bladders inside to control the pressure and location of the fuel, especially in zero-g. Otherwise, the fuel could float away from your tank valve. It is possible that this tank has a fully or partially inflated bladder, making it much more buoyient.

I’m 100 percent certain that this is a spacecraft or launcher fuel tank. I’ve worked on reentry analyses of spacecraft fuel tanks before, and I can tell you that these very commonly survive re-entry for several reasons.

Firstly, they are by far the largest components housed inside the vehicle’s outer structure. The structure usually takes the brunt of the aerodynamic and thermal forces, protecting the tank from the largest destruction.

Secondly, the tank itself has to handle the huge fuel pressures involved (easily going towards many hundreds of atmosphere pressures!). This obviously means that incredibly tough materials have to be used.

Thirdly and finally, as can be seen in the pictures, their shape is symmetric, making the shape aerodynamically very unstable. This means the fuel tank has the tendency to tumble in the airstream. The tumbling continuously causes different parts of the tank to be exposed to the heat and other parts to cool down.

Fuel tanks are the major risk during reentry to people and other stuff on the ground, perhaps together with the massive engine blocks. To minimise the chances of hitting someone or something, re-entries are nearly always aimed at the Pacific Ocean, hence them being more likely to wash ashore in Australia.

Things will definitely not move then.

If I remember correctly, dark roast was also originally devised to hide bad-quality coffee beans. Nowadays it is often implied that darker roasts are better, which actually isn’t necessarily the case.

I think most of the bots at the moment don’t have any real purpose other than showing that it is possible to create so many bots. Gathering from posts on the subject and the modlog, many bots have far from a natural name in the form of [random word][long number]. I suspect many of these hots have been created by the same person and/or script.

It will be a matter of time though before real problems start occuring if the sign up process does not become more secure. Fortunately, several pull requests exist for this at the Lemmy GitHub.

They act like everyone already uses reddit and the users are so addicted they’ll put up with anything.

To be honest, this may actually be true for a significant portion of the userbase.

Completely agree! Especially if it some kind of product support. I hate having to scroll through thousands of chronically ordered chat messages to find the solution to the problem I’m having.

ITT: nope, not touching anything touched by Zuckerberg.

I think it is safe to assume that’s happening now anyway. As long as anyone can access the data at the moment, they will too.

Unfortunately websites can’t really go private :P

So after June 30th we will not have an idea about the state of things anymore… :P

I’m surprised it took that long though. Did laws regarding these seizures recently change in Canada?

Some kind of aliasing

I agree, it feels a bit like the internet in the early days, where you can find mindblowing new things just around the corner with a single click

Oh damn, still learning the UI here… Thanks nevertheless!

Just a month ago? I’m using it to post this message and I’m incredibly impressed with how far you’ve come!</fanboy>

Just don’t use the API or you might be 2 million dollars out of pocket in a month’s time.
