Common misconception actually. Moriori are an offshoot of Māori, most likely Ngai Tahu, who arrived in Aotearoa during the same migration period as everyone else.

I forget, did Pegasus end up disabling their networking after they made their initial escape? I don’t remember it being mentioned, but it makes for quite a plot hole if they continued on as normal.

The flip side to this, is that the vast majority of meat in pet foods is effectively waste from human-grade meats, for the same reason. That means the price point for competition in pet foods is significantly lower.

It also means that there won’t be as direct of an impact on livestock numbers should pet food be sourced via synthetic meats, as it just means the byproducts which would enter the food chain for dogs instead become waste products with a cost of disposal.

Did she name her car “dick turpin”?

Can you provide an example of this? Only time I’ve encountered that behaviour was with a laptop that had a defective lid-switch.

Now look at an x-ray of an abdomen with a metallic object in it. Seems pretty plausible thata person could look at an x-ray containing a bunch of metal and approximate how much of it there is.

Raid 0 offers no redundancy though. If any of those three disks fail, you lose the entire volume.

For the sake of backups, switching to Raid 5 would be more robust

Holy FPTP, that represenation is fucked. How hoes 33% of the popular vote translate to 60% of parliamentary seats?

Y’all need electoral reform.

Gays to the vanguard?

You can buy similar commercial chassis for about one fifth of that. Control systems depending on whether they are intended for autonomous operation or remote control would be maybe 5-20k on top of that. I have no idea what the mounted weaponry in worth.

The real question is whether they are paying inflated military prices as is typical with US equipment, or building them in house at cost.

I am totally on board with individual vehicles as a last-mile solution, and self driving vehicles are a great option for that, but expecting them to provide the entire trip puts us right back in the situation we find ourselves now with human driven cars.

Unless we are going to shrink these vehicles down to the size of a bicycle, mass transit for the bulk of the route will always win out in terms of efficiency.

That is called public transport, my friend. You can sleep all you like on a bus or train.

smartmontools has some good functionality for interfacing with SMART via usb bridges that do not provide native functionality.

There is no scientific consensus supporting this being a burial site at present.

Lets wait until the analysis and peer review before making any bold claims.

Because it reduces reaction time? If you set the cruise control and cover the brake with your foot then you have a faster braking response than if you have to switch pedals first.

Do think think you could fight a ninja? We made some bad deals with the yakuza and we’re kind of desperate for someone who can.

Indeed, the difference between the two is that a driver has no responsibility for any debris already present on the road that they inadvertently caused to damage something. They are however responsible for damage caused by any object they themselves introduced to the roadway.

The NASA equivalent would be pretty straightforward, they are not responsible for any space rocks that they accidentally disturbed from orbit and caused to land on your house, but they are fully responsible if thier own craft or parts thereof fell from space onto your house.

Fair. No arduino kits though?

If you’re going to the expense of putting a camera on it, why not take it a little further and slap together an arduino-based sensor suite with some logging? See if you can find any correlations in temp/humidity/gas conc that might help with diagnosis.

I haven’t spent any time in the Middle East, so please forgive my armchair analysis if you are more versed in the culture, but it seems like they have a legitimate need for guns, given how unstable the region is, rather than seeking guns out because of a deification like the US.
