No elements can be replicated. Replicators rearrange existing atoms.
There are tobacco sponsors? I thought that stopped decades ago?
Struggling to interpret what this means. While I’d love it to be true, I assume Aston Martin isn’t going to have nine times the performance of previous races.
"Jinos 3D Filament” is pretty cheap. I started using them during the pandemic when it was hard to find PETG. Seem to be a small place in North Carolina that manufactures mostly for their own use? Sometimes they take a couple of days to ship.
They sell mostly on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/382556327412
[Edit: Just re-read that you’re looking for ABS/ASA - I don’t think Jinos does those, unfortunately]
to this day it’s still exiled on the Xbox 360, not a prime destination for the genre
It’s still ‘exiled’ on not-a-prime-destination-for-the-genre, but it does also run on modern Xbox systems thanks to backward compatibility - with vastly reduced load times and a solid 30fps frame rate.
I think the success of features based on calculated track position - like DRS and the Virtual Safety Car - proves that the time has come for Mario Kart style power-up cubes. Project them onto AR displays in the drivers’ helmets, and show them on the TV feeds.
- Mushroom allows the driver to cut corners and speed over track limits.
- Squid ink appears in the field of view of all other drivers’ visors.
- Verstappen gets blue-shelled and all his power cuts out until he’s stationary!
- etc.
Call me crazy, but I think in 10 years time you’ll be looking back on this post as prescient.
Been around since at least TNG:

Yeah - as a Californian I considered driving to see it - day long road trip out there, stay for the Grand Prix, day trip home.
I stopped considering when I saw the prices.
I want to know how a utility made $17B in profit.
That’s about $425 per resident of California, FWIW.
Net income, after expenses are completely deducted, was substantially less - $406,000. About $10 per resident of California.
If you really do want to know what the money comes from and is spent on, I’m pretty sure it’ll be in the financial reports in much more detail.

Anyone got any recommendations from the books on the list?
It seems like it’s generally accepted that game 3 is the best of this trilogy, and game 2 the worst, but I’m in agreement with @[email protected] - there’s something about the balance of ‘Rise’ that made me like it a bit more than the rest. I hope you like it!
Tomb Raider 2013 is something of a poster-child for ‘ludonarrative dissonance’:

I picked one, but just do any sort of web search for ‘tomb raider ludonarrative dissonance’ and you’ll see a huge number of articles and videos on the topic.
I still loved he game though!
Was in Vancouver recently and they have a system like this. Felt great just being able to double-click my phone’s power button then pay directly with Apple Pay. So easy for tourists or infrequent transit riders.
More locally, I really do think that this ‘easiness’ could encourage the transit-averse, who’d never go through the perceived rigmarole to get a ‘useless’ Clipper card, or who’d never carry it if they did, to try out transit.
The idea is still around! Apple’s APFS file system (and HFS+in its later days) support sort-of transparent compression, and on all its platforms most system files - the ones that don’t change much - are compressed to save space for user files. There’s surprisingly little documentation about this.
There’s a third party tool you can use to compress files yourself: https://github.com/RJVB/afsctool
It looks like the technical details are in this pdf: https://developer.apple.com/support/downloads/Apple-File-System-Reference.pdf
There are two subscription prices - the more expensive one has no ads, the cheaper one has ads.
It seems almost all commenters here are agreeing with the premise that ‘posters [have] to crosspost to both’.
I don’t think this is true. It leads to people subscribed to both having two identical posts with different responses in their feed, which is annoying. Just post to the one that you’re ‘closest’ to, or pick one at random.
Part of beauty of federation is that you can see all the content from multiple places. Cross-posting is not required!
