Sounds like it's a recoverable error (if the scientists can't do it the spacecraft has an automated process that'll kick in in October.) Still, I can't imagine what that must feel like.
What's always maddening about this is we tend to do a kind of communal thing in our household where we all connect to the smart TV and stream short little videos.
But shorts won't stream. So you'll see one, want to share it with the group, and be completely unable to do so. Why they are restricted that way I have no idea.
This is so heartbreaking. That ecosystem is so much more fragile than it seems. I wonder if replanting would help in this instance, or if it would be too difficult/expensive.
Very impressed by the people who do this work; it's got to be soul-crushing. I'm glad they caught the guy and I hope it brings his victims some peace.
Oh man, I'm so excited. I really enjoyed this book when I read it a couple years ago, and I know the narration will only improve it. It's a fun read.
#3, though all are nice.
Looks nice! I'm working on a Lily58 but once I'm done burning my fingers on that I'll definitely be looking into this.
It was like this in my CS department a decade ago, too. There was me, one other gal, and for a while a German exchange student who wanted nothing to do with either of us in the entire grad program. I learned to talk a lot louder over the course of that program.
I have an ortholinear kit I built but it's caseless so it's not suuuper portable. Which Planck do you recommend? I'd be willing to give a 40% a try even if it's not for this trip. I'm okay with soldering if it's a kit and/or there's decent instructions.
Thanks for the recommendation! I've been putting off a travel keyboard for a while now, this time I'm actually planning ahead so I have plenty of time to mod. I'll look into the mint switches and see what they've got in stock. (Ah, the classic struggle.)
This was just so sad to read about when it happened. I felt bad for the intern: one arguably small mistake led to such terrible consequences. I felt really bad for Hickam too; he tried to help the intern but I don't know what came of it.
If you're talking about the tucked-in arrow keys, you'd be surprised how quickly you adapt. I've gotten so used to it that the more spaced-out configuration feels unnatural to me at this point. I don't think I'm alone, as I'm seeing this layout more and more.
Give it a try (maybe not on something as expensive as this is!) Maybe you'll like it and it'll open up more options for you.
