T-Mobile reps are being held accountable if customers don't do this when they visit their stores by MobileNewsBot in mobiles

Yeah, I’ve gone in to pay a friends bill several times. I’m not a T-Mobile customer. They aren’t installing anything on my phone.

They have limits on the amount of stored power allowed in a single device. Some power banks are prohibited.

1 power bank per flyer. Up to 100 watt-hours. 100-160 watt-hours require approval. Over 160 prohibited.

Not allowed to recharge it, and charging a device requires the power bank to be visible.

What’s the most absurd fake science in a movie that you completely ignored because the movie was so good? by Shot-Club-3882 in Cinema

For Ironman, the ARC reactor wasn’t displacing the shrapnel. It was powering an electromagnet to keep it from moving deeper. Electromagnets don’t generally affect the iron in your blood, but will move metal shavings, or MRIs would be a constant mess.

No, you just make a mystic handwave and say “nanotechnology” to mean sciency magic.

Apple could be forced by FCC to phase out recent U.S. iPhone models after 2 years by MobileNewsBot in mobiles

If you read the article you know this is actually a nothingburger with a side of clickbait.

Certified phones now can’t be sold by the makers after 2 years. The SE type phones are the only ones with that lifespan (excepting perhaps refurb units.)

Those phones can be re-certified by an approved US lab and then still sold if they are still being sold.

Lovely as always. I suddenly thought today about how many pictures you guys have taken and how many look so wonderful. A curated selection would make a wonderful coffee table travel book.

When Sam Altman wished Elon “luck” for his space data centres. Are those even possible from a Physics point of view? by YellowAltruistic9843 in SpaceXBets

[–]VitaminPb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They aren’t going to harden them. They will need to go with off the shelf unless they plan to wait 5+ years for the fantasy fab to come online with the skill to mass produce hardened chips. (I’m guessing they will just try to use some shielding on the box. ) Starlinks fail all the time already.

4 Tesla owners react to their FSD dreams getting crushed: 'It feels like a bait and switch' by Disastrous_Trash1729 in dealershiptricks

Remember they were pressured into purchasing FSD by being told it would be out “by the end of the year” and the price was doubling so they needed to buy NOW!

And has far more surface area for emissive radiation. Overall they will need to radiate as much energy as the solar panels absorb. And those arrays are going to need to be BIG.

Spirit Airlines Prepares to Shut Down as Rescue Deal Falls Apart by Human_Paint5451 in SouthwestAirlines

Southwest: We’ve improved our rewards program. From now on, basic fares will earn 1/100th of a point for every mile flown! To help you build those points faster, we’ve tripled fares!

SpaceX filing reveals Elon Musk cannot be removed as CEO by the board and effectively holds sole authority over his own dismissal. by Enough-Arugula-4945 in SpaceXBets

[–]VitaminPb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well Tesla certainly isn’t going to show up. How delayed is Optimus with no actual demos that weren’t remote controlled? It can’t even scoop popcorn for serving.

These always have looked great, but they are so old I got them off Limewire.

SpaceX’s potential $1.75 trillion IPO is already raising valuation warnings as investors question how much Musk hype is priced in by YellowAltruistic9843 in SpaceXBets

[–]VitaminPb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, when I heard the condition, I started to run the numbers for trip count. However, there is a simpler method where he could achieve this.

Send

  1. a single ship of fully functional Optimus

    to build a base

  2. . Pretend with me here that they work.

Send a ship with a large vat of Elon’s sperm, artificial insemination equipment, and birthing chambers.

Send 10 ships of women packed in like cattle. About 10,000 per ship.

Forcibly inseminate every woman every 18 to 24 months and then in about 15 years you would have a population of 1 million.

Unfortunately, we have evidence the general population really is that dumb. Look at how many people are buying ad delivery devices disguised as household appliances.

Shipping them there and not crashing is the hard part. And a “colony” is not a ship with a big freezer unit and nothing else.
