NASA and Boeing say Starliner astronauts ‘are not stranded,’ but will be on the ISS for a few more weeks
  • Lol. People want Boeing to fail, because they're corrupt, lying, poorly engineered pieces of shit riding on bribed politicians. They've already deliberately caused the deaths of hundreds of people due to willful and deliberate negligence to save a buck.

    Nobody's wanting the astronauts to die. And they won't, they're safe on the space station, and there are multiple options to get them home safe even if they have to abandon the POS Starliner to do it.

  • Begging for all the Lemmy Audiophiles recommendations on computer speakers!
  • Honestly just keep your old ones.

    Speaker technology hasn't exactly advanced by leaps and bounds like graphics. The greatest innovations have mainly been adding RGB lights and manufacturing then more cheaply.

  • Wild New Study Suggests Gravity Can Exist Without Mass
  • It kind of is. It's an extra variable introduced to account for a bunch of things that aren't adding up.

    Aether was the same thing, until people discovered electromagnetic fields. People knew light was a wave. Waves travel faster through more solid mediums. Light is pretty damn fast. Space is pretty empty.

    Things didn't add up. Light is simultaneously traveling through possibly the stiffest material in the known universe while also through nothing at all. People had to come up with Aether to try to explain that.

    It was wrong, but it was an obvious placeholder acknowledging that something huge is missing from our current theories.

  • Are you going to need an unlimited data plan to use The 8 Pro's Video Boost feature?

    From my understanding, the P8P's video boost can't be done in the phone itself, but it's actually uploading the video to Google's servers, processing it there, then downloading the finished product back again. In fact, it probably uploads two videos, one at high ISO and one at low ISO to get the full HDR range.

    For anyone who wants to take lots of videos, this sounds like it'll blow through your data caps very quickly.

    Pixel 8/pro camera features leaked - no main sensor upgrade?

    Looking at the details listed from this leak, it looks like all the previous leaks were wrong. The specs for the main sensor are the same as the P7, the Samsung GN1 sensor.

    Also rumors of the IMX787 ultrawide appear to be incorrect as well, only 48MP instead of 64.

    Still waiting for Canoo to produce a consumer version, but at least they've made the vehicles for NASA. Maybe the publicity from this will help them get enough interest for the initial production and sales?

    I'm guessing it's still a production line test unit, but it seems like the design is finalized and volume production could actually begin by the end of the year

    Can't wait to see more of these. I hope that Rivian eventually makes an RV/camper version of this, it would go well with their adventure vehicle branding
