DOW II is perfect for co-op with a friend. You have much less to keep track of, and it’s a good time playing through it!
DoD work (both civilian and active duty) tends to bind people together a lot more than other industries, in no small part due to the factors you mentioned, but also because a) the additional barriers of national security/clearance work make it only really possible to vent about work to coworkers/friends from work, b) the work can often be unique enough that only coworkers have shared experiences to bond over and empathize with, and c) the civilian side of the DoD tends to attract career folks a lot more than it does transitory people. I think a disproportionate amount (when compared to private industry) of civilians who hire into the DoD stay in federal service for their whole careers. And people sticking around their whole careers tend to invest more in personal and professional relationships in the workplace, because networking is how you get opportunities, and you never know who you might owe a favor some day (or who might owe you one).
I have not had first hand experience, but I would recommend you find out if the degree program you’re interested in from them is accredited or not. The school I went to for undergrad has ABET accreditation for the Mechanical Engineering program (and the applicable accreditations for all other degrees). A lot of employers do require your program be accredited, and whether or not TECH has the applicable accreditations will tell you a) whether it would be a good move for you career-wise and b) whether you can expect the appropriate amount of rigor from the program (i.e. The program may be a degree-mill rather than an actual learning opportunity).
I think the meaning is that the Lemmy.ml fascists aren’t actually communist.
Yeah they did. My reading of the policy is that YouTube does not allow content that shows off legally dubious (or outright banned in any state) accessories, and does not allow firearms in live streams (because shit can and often does go wrong, and live censoring isn’t really a thing). Teaching firearm safety is still very much allowed.
I feel like that comes down to misconceptions over X-ray vs. MRI. Because you absolutely CANNOT have any metal on you for an MRI.
The frustrating part is that it’s just a giant fucking advertising billboard when they aren’t hosting events inside.
Add chopped fresh roasted hatch green Chile, and I’m yours
That is correct. The ratio is nanograms of substance to kilograms of bodyweight
Any idea when these are gonna be available in the US?
Okay, most absolute basic troubleshoot check: is there an on/off switch on the power supply that might be off?
I think it’s intended as a tongue-in-cheek comment about phones already tracking you, and the OEMs selling that data.
Also they’re completely ignoring the immense personal safety benefits that come with knowing if, say, an abusive ex has slipped an airtag into your car somewhere. This is actually a responsible move for once (assuming it works as intended) because it addresses an unintended but dangerous use for the product, and attempts to prevent it rather than just killing a useful product.
I’m sure there will be in the coming weeks. It’s just a brand new change, so no one has published an extension yet. I did learn you can block the ai results with uBlock origin, however, so that’s huge.
Strictly speaking, that doesn’t really answer my question. Would you be physically holding onto designated copies for people?
What’s the point of you storing physical copies? Is this deal only valid at the time of sale, so you could essentially just put the physical copy back on the shelf if they want the ebook, and then just grab a copy if they wanted to exchange? Or are you planning on dedicating a large amount of storage space to the specific book each customer purchased and then wanted the ebook of?
We benefit from the bottomless DoD budget for sure. We have the ability to spend as much as it takes on material and training to ensure reliability and safety for the crew. And it shows. We’ve had several undersea collisions (SSN-711 in 2005 and SSN-22 in 2021), and while both incidents were extremely serious, both boats made it safely back to port for repair.
SUBSAFE was implemented in 1963 following the loss of USS Thresher (SSN-593). It’s a remarkably strict QA program for systems and components exposed to seawater/operating pressure. To our credit, we’ve only lost one submarine since 1963 (USS Scorpion, SSN-589, and she was never SUBSAFE-certified), so the program works.
Similarly stringent controls for the Titan would have either caught all the manufacturing defects in the carbon fiber, or prevented anyone from thinking it’s a good idea to begin with. A big part of innovation is learning what rules you can reasonably bend/break, and which should never be touched. I tend to think pressure hull construction falls in the “never touch” category, at least not without a mountain of testing, data collection, fatigue life calculation, etc. along with communication with regulatory bodies to ensure you meet the principles of the regulation, if not the exact words (again, innovation has it’s place).
I work on submarines. Everything that company was doing gave me a panic attack. The SUBSAFE program exists for a reason. Like, there’s a time and place for innovation, and when people’s lives are on the line is NOT it.
The actual quantity of radioactive waste generated is tiny, and even combining the storage space for waste products with the footprint of the reactor plant itself, nuclear is by far the most energy-dense and space-efficient form of power generation we have.
