During the Pascal-B nuclear test of August 1957 a 900-kilogram (2,000 lb) steel lid was welded over the borehole to contain the nuclear blast, despite Brownlee predicting that it would not work. When Pascal-B was detonated, the blast went straight up the test shaft, launching the cap into the atmosphere. The plate was never found. Scientists believe compression heating caused the cap to vaporize as it sped through the atmosphere. A high-speed camera, which took one frame per millisecond, was focused on the borehole because studying the velocity of the plate was deemed scientifically interesting. After the detonation, the plate appeared in only one frame. Regarding its speed Brownlee reckoned that "a lower limit could be calculated by considering the time between frames (and I don't remember what that was)", and joked that the best estimate was it was "going like a bat!". Brownlee estimated that the explosion, combined with the specific design of the shaft, could accelerate the plate to approximately six times Earth's escape velocity (approximately 240,000 km/h or 150,000 mph).

Fuck Google and its fcking recaptcha with its fcking traffic lights, fcking crosswalks, fcking hydrants, fcking bicycles and fcking CARS! FCK!

Can confirm. Mine is about 22 years old. Unfortunately the USB adapter isn't working anymore.

It just emphasizes what's already there.

It goes without saying that this would be mandatory: No koalas, without kiwis!

The model itself is probably not censored. The censorship comes on top. Preliminary tests already show how this can be circumvented.

Last week at us.

First question I asked the evil twin was: "How can I deactivate Gemini and never hear from it again?" Support article poped up, where must opt out from some Labs setting or some bs, but only a workspace admin can do it.

Ended up with blocking that flare button with uBo. Problem solved.

Why is AI not making enough money? I specifically requested it.

Presumably it had not yet regressed at that time.

 

Hi,

any LibreWolf experts here, that know how this Wolf handles saved password / auto-login? It's the only browser, that I'm aware of that shoots saved credentials directly into the login forms without any further clicks. You just have to click "login" and you are ready to go.

Unfortunately here on my workplace I'm forced to use Chrome and I have to login on many different site through the day. Mostly 3 to 4 clicks every time:

Activate login form - click Open saved credentials context menu - click Choose desired creds from list - click Login - click

Even the global password manager Keeper is not very helpful on websites. Even more interactions are neccessary for logins.

Firefox is also installed, so I thought someone can recommend an addon or userscript, whereby I'm cautious with third party addons that are handling credentials. On the other site there is Google password manager in Chrome...

Any hints?

Thanks!

 

Any mind-blowing advices, like "I wish I knew that before!"? Thanks!
