Well-well look. I already told you: I deal with the god damn prophets so the Bajorans don’t have to. I have god skills; I am good at dealing with gods. Can’t you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?

You don’t even need to get new drives to begin, just use what you probably already have lying around, old external hard drives. Use a RAID and swap drives as they fail.

We should ban Sweden from the ESC for sending Loreen twice.

The contest was fine, the voting patterns and final result were not.

Doubt it’s that, I’d rather assume that Huawei is just much cheaper. At the scale of telecommunication network operators the people who make the decision to buy new equipment aren’t those who have to work with it.

Roko’s Basilisk is about halfway there.

You can go north across the arctic ocean (not sure if it gets ice free enough) and through the bering strait, but you end up around 500 kilometres away from new zealand.

All these Wifi for tracking people methods use the channel state information (CSI) that is used to help decode the transmitted data. CSI is obtained from pilot signals that are transmitted as part of a regular transmission. This is done in basically all digital communication standards, so you could do this not just with Wifi but also with 4G or 5G or older mobile communication standards. This is all not very surprising, there is a lot of research in contactless radio based heart rate monitoring, they usually build on radar systems not communication systems though. The buzzword for 6G for all this is joint communication and sensing.

They have plenty of documentaries about all sorts of things from different european countries, it’s not just all about France and Germany.

Ah yes, that’s why in the rest of the world that didn’t do racially segregated bathrooms there are only unisex bathrooms.

Assuming it’s 768GiB, then it would be 824.6GB, not 832GB.

Especially when they’re shipped from China to Germany. German authorities have no say there, only Murica.

It only has to be compatible with Mastodon, not necessarily be an actual Mastodon instance, see Meta’s threads.net.

I’m pretending to not be at home.

For GPS jamming there is research into alternative ground based location services, I’m currently doing research in that area. Interestingly one major problem there is not GPS jamming in hostile areas, it’s truckers using GPS spoofers for their tracking devices, because apparently that happens and it happens far away from any wars. Loss of communication was what I researched before, i.e. how reliable communication links are. For most of the other things you list a regular pilot can’t do much more than someone remotely operating the aircraft from the ground, the pilot is not going outside to fix an engine mid-flight, or hit the landing gear with a hammer until it works again. For autolanding, the whole idea of remote piloting is to not rely on autoland.

I did research on communication systems for exactly this. You need a few more than just one pilot, but the general idea is that only take off and landing are hard so you have pilots on the ground remote piloting the aircraft in these situations. In theory you don’t need pilots at all, but current autoland systems reduce throughput at airports.

It’s all he needs.

You have to pay google to use it (only works on pixel phones afaik).
