The charged particles that affect our electrical and electronic systems have mass and therefore cannot travel at the speed of light... We can see the visible light effects of a flare and know that the slower-moving particles that will cause actual damage are on the way.

They flew the plane just fine...

It was the landing where they struggled.

But, to be fair, it was on a short runway (for the plane) in heavy rain and with a 15 knot tailwind (the maximum allowable).

It's not propaganda when it's true.

And SLS is hideously expensive compared to every other launch vehicle in history.

Not being allowed to defend yourself until the intruder finishes breaking in to your home and attacks you simply means self-defense isn't allowed, because at that point you're probably already dead.

Also hard to shoot somebody breaking in to your home with violent intentions when you don't have a gun.

And the only way to find out what the intruder's intentions are is to wait until it's potentially too late to defend yourself.

WTF is up with the random preview images anyway?

I do exactly this with a SteamDeck and USB-C docking station... with the added bonus that I can pull it out of the dock and take it with me to use as a hand-held when I travel.

The wording of 14A doesn't require a trial and conviction. It was used extensively in the past without convictions to keep former Confederate officials out of Washington.
