Does anyone remember the CD bootloader shit they pulled? They've always only been kept on check by competition. Hopefully at least Steal and the Steam Box continue to grow to actually compete with the console market.

    Its better performance than existing non-gps systems - not better than GPS. For ships , being within 1nm after thousands of miles of travel is really well performing. Obvious the real play here is weaponry though, since GPS isnt reliable in warfare and on-board sensors can do the detail work of target identification once in an area, the hard part is a way for them to self navigate accurately over long distances without GPS.

    Love the great lakes! I wouldn't live anywhere else because of that, but would never think myself better or worse than someone for that choice either. Its right for me you know. Plus ive had as much or more fun in some of the "nowhere" places as I have in the places everyone wants to be. People should live where its best for them and be proud of it, but not try to use it to one up others in different places in life.

    I've never even been near there (great lakes stan here) but even I know Mt Washington in NH is one of the deadliest places in the country. Besides, people trying to flex on other people based on where they live is small pp shit. You didn't build the mountains and have no right to try and get superiority over others because you live nearby.

    Store near me has one named "Tally" thay goes up and down isles doing inventory. Its real tall and just scans the shelves. It is ironically one of the most employee-focused grocery stores, offering 401k and paid vacation and the like to its employees. Its a family-owned chain and well respected. The kids love Tally.

    That's open source for you. The biggest issue for things gaining traction is a million projects that all do the same thing "better". Look at Linux, if people are curious about "switching to Linux" all it takes is one comment thread somewhere to confuse then enough to bail on the idea.
