Put a bit of spare sheet metal over the hole and let the pressure differential hold it down. For added safety affix a post-it not with DO NOT REMOVE written on it in all capital letters and underlined. They can even use those special zero-g ballpoint pens they spent eleventy-billion dollars inventing back during the johnson administration.

But they still haven't located the leak. My blob of glue idea solves that by automatically permeating into the cracks.

wait, do they have to have matched CTE and k to the existing material... hmm

Do you know what causes superglue to harden? Do you think that will be found in a vacuum?

ok, droplets of UV-curing resin first, then CA glue, then water.

It's sounds like he wants them to offer paying subscribers the choice to opt out of marketing emails? I'm a bit confused by your implication that journalism is somehow contingent on sending email spam to people who are already paying customers.

This is one of the main reasons that Amazon is my default online merchant, despite all of my reservations with them: a purchase won't increase the amount of marketing email I receive. I don't know how much spam they send to new accounts, but I must have my preferences tweaked to eliminate most of it. Contrast that to every merchant that thinks that since I bought a product from them once, they should spam me multiple times per week, oftentimes even when I've unchecked the "receive marketing emails" box.

Considering Bill hasn't been Microsoft CEO for only 2.6 decades, these things are probably directly related.

Bill is still pulling the strings.

E-something was the big trend before i-something and we still have ebay and email (although only the former is a brand name).

If you go to a private island owned by a man who's known for being a convicted pedophile and you attend sex parties on said island hosted by said pedophile when it is known that some subset of those sex parties involve what can be at best termed "statutory rape" (if we were to give the benefit of doubt to somebody who does not deserve it) and then you donate millions of dollars to a supposed charity at the behest of said pedophile in response to his having threatened to reveal something to your wife that would in all likelihood culminate in the sudden termination of your marriage to her then there is still a possibility that you yourself are not actually a pedophile but I'll just go ahead ans assume that you are one anyways.

Those can kill you btw.

Agreed, I imagine it's been a lot harder for bill to offload all that excess money ever since jeff epstein died.

Most convincing evidence to date that he is in fact dead

I like to explain my opposition to vibe coding by replacing the phrase "write code for you" to "fuck your wife for you". You could make all the same arguments that the AI could do a better a job, its never impotent, it frees you from being pressured to do it when you might be tired or not in the mood etc. But thats not the point and most people would still be opposed to sort of, err, "vibe vibrating".

I feel the same way about coding, its a source of pride for me and when I hear people say I should resign myself to being an "ideas guy" while chatgpt actually creates things I find the very concept to be distasteful regardless of whether or not it can outperform me.

Thats why they gave the measurement in watts (which is power) and not joules (which is energy). The answer is that even if the fist and the bullet transfer equivalent amounts of energy the bullet has significantly higher instantaneous power because the energy is transferred over a shorter period of time.

There's a limit to how many photos you can take with somebody else's satellite. Even if the russkies are complying with every Iranian request, that would at least serve to deny russia the ability to use their own surveillance resources to their fullest potential.

Don't satellites have very limited abilities to change their orbits? A request for Iran would be for Russia to photograph something when the Russian satellite is in the area anyway. Unless Russia happened to want to concentrate on something else in that area this shouldn't impede their own surveillance.

Also, I'd expect that everything Iran wants to see Russia also wants to see.

At this point, China would be interested as well. If Xi decides to get on the despot raiding party bus, he'd like to know how effective Iran's capabilities have been on US assets. At this point, North Korea might be looking south too.

Huh? Satellites follow fixed orbits, they don't get moved around to fly over a specific location. They can take images of everything they pass over.

Not everything at once. The lens needs to be angled.
