it is impossible not wonder why there are not very fast uncrewed interceptor boats that would handle these situations,great big hydrofoils that just jam in there and litteraly grab a drug boat, drop a ladder down for the poor bastards to climb up, into there surrender cell for there remote debreef and a mre, if they are part of drug smuggling, it is strait off to some prison/mine and if they are bieng trafficed or other innocent, they get a phone.
the main thing is that there is no excuse for ANY drug boats getting through, and the US, trillion dollar+ military/coast guard should be perfecly capable of intecepting and inspecting anything and everything in US waters without it bieng a stretch or any big deal.
but then we come full circle, and the fact is that drug demand is driven by peoples lives, sucking so bad, and that is systemic in origin, with a ready domestic industry there to manufacture all the drugs, and more
greenlands glaciers are many thousands of cubic kilometers/miles in volume, and the issue is that with a collapse of the gulf stream, the melting might stop, and Iceland
and the rest at the "meeting"
Ok, I suggest that you install the "Stoutner, privacy browser", which treats seeing text, as the default, with the ability to allow other content as optional, though certain sites that are still hand coded, show, as they always have....adds and all.
Elo gets a trillion dollar performance based pay package, and lo two fairly significant insiders fade, too high up to just vanish, but clearly not on "the team"
the timing is highly sugestive of bet's placed, and lost
algae eats jet fuel, fast enough that there are algasides added to discourage them.
plastcics are more or less like liquid hydrocarbons, with there lack of porosity as the thing that keeps them from bieng eaten, so that unlike most things plastics present a 2 dimensional surface where engulfing single or small groups of molecules is impossible, so other sort of feedingmechanism* must be at play to eat plastics.*
in other news, busses in Norway have been found to have had internet conectivity installed by there chinese makers,spy busses
and spy cranes, which is supposed to terrify us enough that we stop demanding $10000 chinese electric cars, which will spy on us, and send pictures of our children, likely throwing sandwiches at each other, back to china, for analysis of our eating habits and child rearing practice, so that they can wage profound psychological warfare on us, yes you, YOU, are making your child, FAT!
as always, Douglas Adams was here first, with the idea if FTL travel powered by bad news, but as the ships were so unwelcome wherever they arrived, the idea had to be abandoned
too harsh by half
even if you are correct
the picture I get from your words is a population bravely huddled , and making the best of these, there last moments,chirping along to cozy lyrics,shivering, before a horrible doom befalls them.
and so yes, I am not also not a fan of things that encourage nebbish behavior.
though as I did go to school for sound engineering, with courses in acoustics and music theory, music business managment, etc, the inevitability of our current musical landscape's inevitability is clear, but still "infuriating"
I am begining to dislike mint, that I incidentaly downoaded via mobile data onto an old hinky android phone, then put on a usb drive with a usb/c adapter, with "etchDroid", and booted an ancient desk top with.
The phone I have now, has a sim tray with places for 2 SIM's and an SD card, so with one of these 1TB, USB-C drives and a 1 TB SD card, it should be possible to carry a local copy of OSM, and a copy of wikipedia(text only) with plenty of room left, the full wiki is a monsterous 410 TB
Every Wikipedia article including pictures is ~111GB. Unless you want all of the edit history then maybe you are right.
I have had Wikipedia on my phone for years, local search is fast enough. I also recommend Wiktionary, which has practically every word in every language and is less than 10GB.
ok!thanks
I took the numbers I found at face value.
Having local copys of OSM and wiki will be a
big asset for work, as mobile data is my only source, and it is not exactly reliable.
though I do have enough data on my business plan to indulge in an occasional download frenzy from the awsome site you linked.
