Tampons weigh nothing
When you’re dealing with the tyranny of rocketry, every gram matters.
That said, I agree with your point. The mass and volume was well within acceptable mission parameters.
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Buy European@feddit.uk•EXPOSING The Billion Dollar SECRET VPN Companies Are HidingEnglish1·6 天前Knowing I’m using a VPN is not the same as knowing where I’m using it from.
The browser thing is bloody irritating, though.
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Video Game Art@sopuli.xyz•Castle of Dr. Brain, front cover US DOS EGA 3.5" disk release, by Sierra On-Line (1991)English1·7 天前I was just looking into this, too. Got on the topic of old “Sierra” point and click games, and the as brought up being similar in many ways.
Sir. I will not hear a word against LaForge.

SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Buy European@feddit.uk•EXPOSING The Billion Dollar SECRET VPN Companies Are HidingEnglish10·8 天前I think I’m dramatically overestimating normal people’s understanding of computers.
I know a VPN isn’t a cloaking device. I just want my ISP to not know what I’m looking up, and my website top not know where I am located.
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Buy European@feddit.uk•EXPOSING The Billion Dollar SECRET VPN Companies Are HidingEnglish14·8 天前Would you care to expand upon this point? I know that a VPN is not going to protect me from everything, but “almost nothing” seems harsh.
I would like to know more.
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If copyright on a work expired immediately after death, would be that a bad or good idea?English11·9 天前In this example, the child is living, and has needs.

SaltSong@startrek.websitetoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•NYC Mayor Eric Adams vetos bills guaranteeing minimum pay to grocery delivery workersEnglish7·18 天前Well, that’s not gonna win him any votes.
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Should you fantasize about having a relationship with someone you know who has expressed they are not interested in you?English421·18 天前As a pure act, I can’t see that it causes any harm.
However, it will very likely lead to frustration, anger, and poor treatment of the person in question. Those things are bad.
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•White House UFC cage fight will take place on the South Lawn, Dana White saysEnglish111·19 天前Very nice.
How about those Epstein files?
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronicsEnglish1·24 天前Do your iPhones usually take oil?
What do you think plastic is made from?
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronicsEnglish2·25 天前Packaging, no. But manufacturing it into something else, yes.
Do you think a tariff on copper would apply to an iPhone? Or a tariff on oil?
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•Republican says state's GDP has plunged 6% due to trade war—'Troubled time'English60·25 天前Congratulations on getting what you voted for.
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronicsEnglish2·25 天前That’s generally how tariffs work. A tariff on grain is not a tariff on bread. A tariff on steel is not a tariff on knives. A tariff on cotton is not a tariff on clothing.
It can be, of course. A tariff can be on steel and items made with steel. But that’s not usually the case, and it’s usually called out as such. Of course, Trump is not what you’d call the most precise communicator in the world, but all we can do is work with what he says.
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronicsEnglish2·25 天前Right, but this tariff, at least as I understand it, is on chips imported as chips, not on products that contain chips. An iPhone will, of course, be subject to some other damn fool tariff, but not this specific one.
Of course, my understanding of this specific tariff may be wrong.
SaltSong@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronicsEnglish6·25 天前What he means is, if I buy an iPhone built in China, this tariff won’t affect the price I pay.
But if I buy a phone built in America, with an imported processer, this tariff will make that phone more expensive.
Look, I know I’m wrong. But I like it that way. Jog on.
