Expanding on what the curated language of the press release actually means for the Forestry Service is not wild claims. It's context.

"This is just streamlining" is the bias. This is 'streamlining' in the same vein of what happened to USAID.

The yahoo article is talking about a facebook post. The main article is talking about the USDA press release.

The press release is talking about shuttering research facilities and "consolidating" them as if forestry research is the kind of thing that sits on a table and can be moved easily.

It goes on to talk about reorganizing base on state level instead of regions and how this "strengthens federalism". Those regions aren't as arbitrary as state borders. The forestry service mission was split up like that because those regions have different needs. Colorado and Wyoming do not need separate forestry offices.

Repeating points from a press release does not make a source unbiased, it makes them have the same bias as the source.

Hey it's my desktop! Love that case. Horizontal motherboards make more sense with how big graphics cards have gotten.

I bought a 16U rack this year to organize stuff a bit. Zigbee dongle is still installed exactly like this. I'm not convinced there's a better solution.

I want them to survive so bad.

I don't need my vehicle to be a third place. I don't want a molded dash with an entertainment center that will be obsolete when it's new and unable to be modified because they abandoned the DIN standard so you could only buy factory replacements. I just want a thing that can do ~50+ miles a day and recharge that overnight. Which Slate could do with just a regular 120v outlet.

Who knows if they'll actually make it to market or if it'll be $40k+ by the time it does, but even without the EV incentive $28k puts it among cheapest new cars in the US. I'm just severely unenthusiastic about any other newer cars on the market if my current one dies.

In 40k they're kinda like mushrooms.

But a more eccentric one, no collision is going to waive away orbital mechanics.

It depends what you're doing.

There are meals you can make by setting the stovetop on high and leaving the pot for 30 minutes but expecting it to work for everything and blaming the tool is just showing a lack of understanding of the tool.

To be clear the failsafes barely did.

Of the steps in this diagram the only one that prevented a nuclear detonation of the first bomb was the arming switch. In the swiss cheese model of accidents, out of 17 layers of protection, 16 failed. The safety mechanism that succeeded in this case had a history of failing because nuts in the plane could fall down and short the switch, arming the bomb unintentionally in flight.

The pilots who bailed out were both arrested by base MPs for 'stealing parachutes' while trying to get to the base and warn about the unsafe condition of the crash site. It probably didn't help that the first pilot to make it to base was black in NC in the 60s.

Birthday hike, Batou just turned 4.

Cycle count is important for the lifetime estimate on the battery, how long before you have to spend a large portion of the cost of the car on replacing / refurbishing a key component.

"Fill up" time is the most obvious and common 'maintenance' anyone will ever do on their vehicle. One of the biggest objections large swaths of the population have about EVs is/was that could take an hour or more for each stop on a long road trip or if you can't charge at home. (apartment / street parking / etc.) They usually do 10-70%r 80 or whatever because the speed trails off exponentially closer to 100%. (logarithmically? whichever.)

This is city center. The park is nice. It was the 1974 world's fair grounds, it's a bunch of bridges over waterfalls and there's been a decent amount of investment / upkeep the last few years.

The business owners in the 70s all opposed it's construction because they didn't think it would be good for downtown. Since then they've really doubled down on surface lots to charge people going to the park / mall / downtown businesses.
