  • The tried and true Russia strategy. China learning well from neighbor.

  • Lemmy Active Users looking good

    Jump

  • Yeah, 1 million would be about the right size for a better active community. 500k would probably do wonders too.

  • US, UK bomb Houthi sites in Yemen amid surge in Red Sea ship attacks

    Jump

  • After more than 30 years of dropping bombs on similar groups you would think the U.S.A would realize it doesn't work. The military has become a joke. Things like this just embolden bigger nations. Iran, Russia, North Korea, and soon China (don't believe they want armed aggression, at least not yet).

    Let's tell Ukraine what they can and can't do with weapons provided. Meanwhile Israel get to do whatever the fuck it wants bombing civilians to kill a few potential targets. More will just take their place. If Israel wants more weapons and money they should go ask their Russians friends.

    From signals official blog, yes you do

  • US concerned NASA will be overtaken by China's space program

    Jump

  • The fact that NASA had to rely on Roscosmos in the first place is shameful. It highlights long standing issues facing the space program. I think some of these problems trace back to the cost of the ISS. It's been hard to convey the importance and investment into the future the station provides.

    For China their station provides proof of concept that they can achieve similar results one day both to themselves and the world watching.

  • The amount of money spent on Apollo was insane. A reduced budget should have been sufficient. It's just been weighted down by shit cost-plus contracts and the abomination that is SLS.

    The fear of China here is that they are basically single handedly their closest competitor. They're the only other nation thats managed a Mars Rover landing, building space station, and have their own plans for Moon and Mars with taikonauts( astronaut equivalent) on the ground in the future.

  • Japan to launch world’s first wooden satellite to combat space pollution

    Jump

  • no living creatures to cause it to rot

    Soon termites will evolve for space environment. On a serious note this does seem cool. The amount of satellites going to burn like disposable starlink ones will be an issue. This prototype is small, but this would be good for cubesats.

    Jailed Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny dead, prison service says

    Jump

  • It's interesting that Russians probably know whats really going with these deaths, but simply look the other way. The way things are going in America the world might see this happening in 10-20 years (Musk first please).

  • Coroner calls on Google and Amazon to act after British woman’s suicide

    Jump

  • Feels like such a reach. I have no love for Amazon but what are they supposed to do here? Ask you at check out "Are you trying to commit suicide with these items?" Typing is most keywords for suicide and Google pops up with suicide prevention info on top screen already. People who want to do something will find a way.

  • SSD prices predicted to skyrocket throughout 2024 — TrendForce market report projects a 50% price hike | Tom's Hardware

    Jump

  • This sucks. For awhile prices were so great for consumers. Finally thought prices would settle low. I'm already seeing a 50% increase in some products. Some cheap team group 128gb SSD could be had for like $12 last year. I tried to look at prices a few days back and it was about $20 and rising.

    From article looks like they don't want to settle at prices before plummet, but at recent peak prices. Shit companies raising cutting output to inflate prices. Car companies are going to be next to follow. They've had to cut prices to sell recently. Once that settles ....

  • Guess if you got nukes you can do what you. Iran going to be pulling this move in the next 5-10 years.

  • Amazon Prime Video will start showing ads on January 29th unless you pay extra for ad-free

    Jump

  • I'd forgotten they were gonna start doing this. I've got Amazon for the shipping there video has always been leaking. I use it maybe twice a year. They're probably trying to delay a price increase to Amazon and increase revenue.

  • It's been almost a decade: Give us more base Google One storage already

    Jump

  • I don't see Google raising that storage limit anytime soon. They've spent the past 2 years years trying to get rid of storage requirements on their end. They combined drive, email, and photo storage in the same storage limit. They're about to start trimming inactive Google accounts. The plan here is to push people into the higher 1TB plan which might be more profitable for them. I'm amazed the price for the plans have held steady. I'd expect a price increase from either Google or OneDrive.
