I am not familiar with what is required for hydropony, but I would guess it requires more equipment. Plus growing them on Lunar soil means eventually you get some elements from the Lunar soil itself and do not need to have full recycling otherwise, which means you don’t have to have a fully closed cycle for this.
There is still the issue of the closed cycle for air though (which is where Mars is easier than the Moon for medium term colonies).
It is on the Moon, it knows it can die due to decompression at any moment and we completely screw up it’s circadian cycle with 30+ days. Of course it will be anxious, no need to prove it.
Let’s see if it wakes up once the sun hits the solar panels. Hopefully the thermal conditions do not kill it by then.
I, too, have children at home.
It means that U.S. automakers find it cheaper to have their vehicles made in China and then import them in the U.S., rather than make them directly in the U.S. in the first place.
This means that manufacturing in China is so cheap that even with the tariffs, it is more cost effective to go there. If your goal with the tariffs is to level the game, then this should not happen (no one would relocate like that unless there is a massive gain).
More accurate data here: https://planet4589.org/space/con/star/stats.html
Total down over the past 5 years is 355 over 5200 launched. And definitely not 50-100 satellites were lost in a week.
It’s not really major news because the report is inaccurate and they are not dying at any abnormal rate at the moment. The only news is that one website is having issues updating their data and can temporarily display misleading information.
Be careful about news on this. The data coming from satellitemap.space can be unreliable for recent data.
If you look at he work from Marco Langbroek https://twitter.com/Marco_Langbroek/status/1705562829225410697 or Jonathan McDowell, respected figures in space object tracking, these reports are inacurate.
Sorry, my autocorrect changed its into it’s.
Tailscale surprisingly was the fastest, even faster than plain Wireguard, despite being userspace. But it also consumed more memory (245 MB after the iperf3 test!) and CPU.
Do we know if this is a variation due to the test protocol or Tailscale is using wireguard with specific settings to improve, slightly, its speed?
I actually would not be surprised if SpaceX starts using Starling for one of their thrusters in the future. I’ll keep the typo.
If you have fiber, it’s unlikely you will benefit from something like Starling. Transfer data wirelessly through a constellation of satellites will have running costs much higher than just having a fibre. That is unless you have to dog a trench or run a fibre on mast for km for just one customer, which is where Starling starts making more sense.
Starling is for rural customers, mobile customers, and possibly an option to counter monopoly abuse by some Telco companies. But if you are in a city with fibre, then do use the fibre, that’s your better option.

It’s not a contradiction if you put my whole sentence. When it is really cold, a heat pump will be more expensive than a gas boiler. But over a full winter (hence “overall”), the period where it is more efficient make up for it, especially since that when it is bad, it is not that bad.
But you are right to mention the high cost of heat pumps. I would not advise anyone to get a heat pump with a goal of saving money, the return on investment is slow and rather small.
The Oxford study is really good. But I can’t say the same about this article.
A COP of ~2 is not great for a heat pump, calling this a triumph is really weird. But from a journalist saying that a COP above 1 means the heat pump “creates energy”, I am not sure I should have expected more.
But what’s great is that this COP of 2, while bad, is not catastrophic. That’s still in territory where gas boilers are more cost efficient that a heat pump, but unless you are living in a place that is consistently under -10C for several months, then a heat pump has overall lower running costs than a gas boiler. And you are starting to hit pretty northern territories with this.
What’s important is also to be able to store heat during the day so that the heat pump runs at its most efficient time. But that can unfortunately coincide with the higher consumption time, so the timing needs to be adjusted properly to avoid using it during consumption peaks.
It goes much more into details than that. Math comes very fast into play (and yes, simple sums is math and many people struggle even for that unfortunately) and if you want to avoid it, you have to trust other people to do it for you. And that comes with a small or very high price, depending on how well you are able to judge them.
For example, if you want to build a fence around your house, paint your walls a new color or with a design, or sew yourself a new outfit or quilt, all of those activities require knowledge about measurement and scaling. More complicated construction projects, such as building a treehouse, require lots of mathematical problem-solving skills.
Once you’ve laid out the plans for one of these projects, you need to buy all the materials. Percentages – which are special kinds of fractions – are especially important to understand when managing money. Understanding percentages can help you budget your money and increase your net worth.
Beyond budgeting, you might find yourself using percentages when cooking a double batch of brownies, determining how much medicine to take when you’re sick or understanding the weather forecast.
One thing to keep in mind is that the websocket sync is not straightforward to set up with vaultwarden and the proxy. If you don’t have it working, then your client does not necessarily sync on every change.
Maybe this is related to this, with sync not being performed by the client you were using for modification?
If you are in an enterprise environment, it is easier to sell Ubuntu - at least there is a company that can provide support for it behind. Companies want to make sure someone is on the hook to fix an issue that would be blocking to them, and this is much harder with something like Debian.
That’s why Red Hat is used that much in companies, and what Canonical main revenues are coming from.
But as a selfhoster, I use Debian by default for my servers. Only if there is a very specific need for Ubuntu would I switch, and I am frankly tired of the Snap shenanigans on my desktop (thinking of migrating to PopOS or KDE Neon).
This is in line with all the MOND theories. The main problem with MOND theories is that so far we have not found one that would explain things better than dark matter. But this analysis shows that there are some observations were dark matter seems to break while MOND holds up better. This is quite interesting!
One caveat with MOND is that we have to be careful about overfitting the data. You could very well elaborate a very complex model that fits all the observations, but at that point you are basically back to an empirical model.
I have been using Bookstack, I like it though it is missing a few features I would love:
