I’m no expert, but usually when missiles “go ballistic” their engines turn off and they have limited maneuvering capability at the end of their flight.

This one looks like it had engines on all the way to the target, which is a fairly newer class of design.

Shepherd my love!

I’ve used SystemD for years and the pure joy writing system initialization units in Scheme gives me can’t be overstated.

Seriously, a lot of times I feel like I stick with Guix’s many problems just for shepherd.

Soooooo… Kind of…

I didn’t check the cargo numbers but for Crewed missions we have some nice estimates from the OIG in 2024 based on the crew program development costs and the built-in 6 flight missions we got for the contracts:

-SpaceX Dragon ~ 55 million/seat

-Boeing Starliner ~ 90 million/seat

-Russia Soyuz ~ 86 million/seat

-Space Shuttle ~ 87 million/seat (adjusted for inflation)

Soyuz was ~ 20 million a seat in 2007, 2013 it was ~ 55 million a seat, and 2014-2018 it was 62 million a seat, now it’s that 86 number.

Funny thing is happening at SpaceX recently, namely NASA used up all 6 flights that were 55 million a seat, so they needed to extend for flights 7-9 and 10-14

In February 2022 NASA Extended their contract with SpaceX for flights 7-9 at around 258 million per flight (so ~64.5 million per seat) and again in June 2022 for flights 10-14 at 288 million per flight (so ~72 million per seat)

So SpaceX came out of the gate with their handfuls of investor cash and subsidized the original contracts, but they’re likely rapidly increasing prices now that they’ve burned through most of that runway.

I have also been done in many times by git-filter-repo. My condolences to the chef.

I’m not sure if it would work for your situation but you seem to be able to ssh into a server on that network? If so you can run a browser on that computer and tunnel the X session over ssh:

Otherwise neko seems neat, I’ve actually been looking for something for watch parties.

Looking forward to every other country on earth advancing space exploration while America feeds SpaceX more money to blow up endangered bird sanctuaries.

I’m not sure how you’re getting wallpaper engine to work on Linux because it’s not supported on anything other than windows.

Are you using Wallpaper Engine? If so you are likely going to keep having issues with your screen blanking while you try and use it, as it’s not supported on Linux.

Thanks @ryan.gosling.stan

Jokes aside I actually do appreciate that almost all guix packages are verified source and not just copy scripts of already built tarballs.

Guix is awesome!

I feel like it’s more likely more and more young people will just retreat from the open internet and only trust content from people they already know don’t post AI clips.

I know right. Let’s put a more realistic “before they’re out of kindergarten” on that.

Nah you can’t even use cash in a lot of post offices now.

I agree to some degree but the gnu project doesn’t have a great track record for performative hosting (savannah is very prone to going down for long periods of time.)

I don’t begrudge better hosting infrastructure from a different non-profit.

As a guix user and package maintainer I’m ecstatic.

I’m so proud of the community for rallying around the needs and pain points of everyone and making this decision. This reduces so many pain points for a guix user and will hopefully smooth out the package maintenance process a great deal. Email is simple but trying to do code change communication over it can be very complex and time-laborous.

If you’re curious about functional packaging systems grab guix on your distro and give it a try!

Special shout out to anyone burnt out on Nix lang. Come feel the warm embrace of Scheme’s parentheses. :)
