I've been here for a while now. The userbase can be seen as an advantage, but it's also a negative. Things move so fast in reddit and everyone is just passing by each other. You can have actual conversations here though. It feels more communal.

I want more users so niche communities can thrive, but I'm also worried about it becoming too much like Reddit has been for a while now.

Better slow than too fast too. Lemmy feels like a nice fairly small community. I'm not sure that'll continue once it's the size of Reddit. We'll get more content and niche communities will be better served though, so there's pros and cons.

I don't think they did. They didn't consider that it's someone harassing her though. Most people have only considered it spam/scam, not something targeting whoever she is.

I think it's only Windows that will break things, so you should be good. Also, I think it's only when it's on the same drive, but I'm not sure. That's how mine was that got messed up. I just ended up ditching Windows because I didn't need it anymore though. That's the proper solution.

Oh, damn. OK. That's a really good price then!

It looks like you'll still be needing to pay for hotels for the nights you aren't traveling. Still, not bad especially since you don't have to deal with the hassle of driving. You just get on the train, sleep, and just appear at the next location.

I meant check it out if you want to be informed. Otherwise, why comment if you're admitting you are wilfully ignorant?

I'm pretty sure they didn't expect it to land sideways. Yeah, there are a lot of craters. They can be avoided. Check out how Firefly's guidance system was able to change landing locations to avoid hazards.

I'm certain they were aware of that. They got to the fucking moon. They aren't stupid.

I don't think it'd matter much. On earth the poles get less light, even in summer, because the angle of the sun is low so it has to pass through more atmosphere. This isn't true on the moon, obviously. The angle will be really low on the south pole, but as long as it's in sunlight it doesn't matter where it is. There are locations on the poles of the moon that never get sunlight, but I suspect it wasn't going there.

The good are more likely to be killed by the evil, but there is no karma. Sometimes good guys die for no reason, and sometimes bad guys do too.

The number of cars isn't the issue. I don't know how many times I've said this. That part doesn't matter at all. The number of cars Tesla sells is what matters. More used sales means fewer new sales, all else being equal. The number of cars could remain the same, but Tesla (and by extension Musk) make less money.
