  • So much This.

    I don't understand why Valve is making this. The MOBA shooter genre was already played-out when they released a sequel to Monday Night Combat over a decade ago..

  • Isn't this a major plot point in EDF?

  • The Olympics.

    Anti-piracy operations always pick up when big sporting events happen because the networks that pay for broadcast rights don't want to have to compete with unlicensed streams.

  • Firefox stores cookies in a DB file called cookies.sqlite, i just cleared cookies on a fresh new Firefox profile and the file is 524.3kB. A text dump of the file has four lines of text that describe the structure of the cookie database and that's it. No actual content.

  • Nah, this is still Season 1.

    That lull that everyone thought was a season break was just a ploy

  • Steph has been a treasure, I've been watching her since long before her transition.

  • Nick is sitting next to Judy in a wig and a dress.

  • The healthcare system murdered a pillar of the furry community yesterday and I haven't been this pissed-off in a very long time.

  • Yep! Line of sight alone would limit laser countermeasures to the horizon, to say nothing of the air scattering the beam's energy for the whole distance.

    But interceptors (anti-missile missiles) have no such limitation and would remain the only effective countermeasure for hypersonics.

  • I'm looking forward to it. Sure, it'll hurt my employers' stock price too but that's all fake anyway.

  • Re-releasing them for newer consoles isn't profitable enough on it's own, gotta add new content so people who loved the original can get FOMO about it.

  • Well that's boring. And here I was hoping they wanted to help with Meshtastic somehow. XD

  • What are the AI bots doing with Long RAnge radios?

  • How long do they even have between detection and impact?

    Depends!

    Carrier groups usually have an AWACS plane on standby, and wikipedia suggests modern systems have a 400km detection range. Assuming the missile has a steady speed of Mach 13, that's about 90 seconds of warning.

    It's more complicated than this, though, because (afaik) these missiles cruise at a much lower speed and only reach maximum velocity when accelerating in their terminal guidance phase.

  • My auto-downloader has the new season listed as #9

  • Against hypersonics, this isn't really a solution.

    The missiles are designed to force their way through thousands of pounds of air per second. Adding a few ounces of lead and/or hardened steel in the last few milliseconds before impact won't do much.

  • Nah, they haven't even started panicing about AI yet. Expect Nvidia stock to drop by another 50% when that happens.
