It's usually what sunk, rather literally, the projects of the libertarians on water so far, lol. They're not willing to invest sufficient coins in maintaining their toys and it sinks at the first big storm.

"Sea steading" became a running gag, at that point.

Now, the Oil Party are forced to pay for oil rigs maintenance tho if they want to keep access to oil, so mysteriously those tend to stay mostly afloat by large. Crazy that difference when the means are put in, lmao. ('cause yes an oil plateform is basically a floating city the size of an aircraft carrier, think CATOBAR big, with sometimes thousands aboard, based on offshore oil mining & pumping away. With motivation for it to stay functional, this time.)

^ Yes it's a giant supertanker for oil docked, if dwarfed, next to it.

And when they pay people adequately they even got enough crazies to properly staff em, all the time, year long : https://www.maritimeherald.com/oil-rig-workers-salaries/

Yes there's some danger around (gas, falling in water or lower decks, ...); but people still almost fight to get a feet in with those wages.

^ tens of thousands a year 'cause they want oil and suddenly even the tanker boats are suddenly all crewed too. NoBoDyWaNtStoWorK right. For 3$ tipped, yes. Put 40-270K and the entire old crew lines up on deck and texas has their oil delivery.

i don't understand quantum physics nor the related maths (way way above my head currently); but science bitch §§§

Pretty useful for information transmission, energy & thermodynamics, space tech i guess (eh you can use a microwave using that fancy science to heat food without understanding precisely how everything works on theory side). And lotsa other topics

Lol. Symptom of the automoderator drowning under work, coping on it's own with one fifth of the necessary hardware and processing power with no one to reboot stuff crashed in time, no spare parts nor giving a second advice. Twitter's ml made a mistake by erring on the side of caution ah.

Give twitter some slack, we're talking triaging like easily tens of thousands images a second at a glance. That's why there were so many people around the computer yes.

I'm told 2fa is crashing too, btw. And export of tweet history.

Did i mentionned somebody told 7000+ experienced persons to take the door if they didn't want to work 80h a week after an hostile takeover of a very large tech corp ?

Btw ftx is totes history imho. I'd really like it for twitter not to end up the same y'know. Did i mention the old ftx ceo probably faces prison for embezzling a billion straight up ? https://www.cnbc.com/2022/11/17/ftx-ceo-shreds-bankman-fried-never-seen-such-a-failure-of-controls-.html https://edition.cnn.com/2022/11/17/business/ftx-ceo-complete-failure/index.html

Like i'd be surprized if investors yelling rug pull just let him walk out a sudden billionaire while ftx crashed hollowed our.

Of course twitter had a smarter tech bro walking IN then hollowing it out and who keeps denying any issue. /s or not

It's currently a driving assist (it can do a lot but not everything, esp off roading). Maybe they shouldn't call it a self driving yet. Maybe in 10+ years. Imho it's an advertizing and naming issue. They're at the edge of tech and progressing, but only so much can be done today. A driver need to stay at the wheel to avoid eventual mistakes.
