4 days agoCountries have different fiscal years! In New Zealand for example, the new fiscal year begins in April, and in Australia it begins in July.

2·4 days agoYours is clearer, but the example is journalistic style, the same way sometimes headlines come across unclear or confusing.

Clearly sarcasm because of how Spain has condemned Israel’s treatment of the flotilla
Because of the local content law in radio and television, we got Celion Dion and Bieber and Drake.
Is this a selling point or…?
The app also raised initial concerns about its potential GPS tracking capability, but the White House has since removed that functionality.
At least that’s been removed. If only that were the only issue…
2·11 days agoI’ve got a similar mantra - “it’s not hard, I just have to do it”. And then when it’s done I follow up with a “see, not hard, just had to actually do it”
Oh it wasn’t a criticism, I just thought it was a funny image, someone holding a live mouse and being really serious about it.
When an ordinary person holds a mouse long enough, and takes it seriously enough?
I was expecting this sentence to be a “bird in the hand” type metaphor.
Same here
I love/hate that we even have to ask.
That’s to Ceres, Mars is only 9 months, so how do we get from 9 months to 23k hours?
Interesting read, this part caught my eye:
Launching a crewed spacecraft to Mars might require 2 to 4 megawatts of power, meaning multiple MPD thrusters operating for more than 23,000 hours. This presents a challenge as the hardware operates at high temperatures, and the team needs to prove that the thruster’s components can withstand the heat for multiple hours during upcoming tests.
Would the thrusters really run the full 23k hours? That’s just shy of 960 days, surely once you reach a certain speed you wouldn’t need to run them continuously at full power.
What is this from? It looks vaguely Dune-y
I’m the same. I use Google maybe 1-2 times a year and only after exhausting my search terms in DDG, most of the time Google also can’t find what I’m looking for.
