Ok, magpies.

No, I don’t think all animals necessarily have a significant sense of ownership. But plenty do.

I found opensuse’s default firewall rules were very restrictive and you needed to open a port.

I expect so.

KDE Connect also works great as a remote control for many things, presumably including this.

Consider the dog that barks at/attacks anyone who approaches its yard, even though the dog uses it for nothing more than crapping in.

What you are describing sounds more like all leasing is theft - holding property not just for personal use, nor just to deprive others of it (as in the dog), but to extract additional gain.

Re 1 & 2, just because there are differences and conflicts does not mean they are unmanageable or irreconcilable.

3 is just sounding no-true-Scotsman.

robots should take over repetitive, boring, dangerous labor that nobody wants to do so everyone’s time can be freed up for work and other activities we prefer to do = luxury space communism

“Iain M Banks’ The Culture is the best possible civilisation”.

Just because some property can be owned does not mean all property must be owned.

Land rights are sometimes split up e.g. a wolf pack might mark and defend their territory - but this is only with respect to other wolves; they are not claiming ownership of the bird nesting areas. But a bird would not appreciate another bird taking their nest.

I am not sure that either #2 or #3 are universally accepted by those who consider themselves ‘left’.

I can see that being an ultra corporate enshittification take, too.

No personal ownership of cars. You must purchase a non transferable license that gives you the opportunity to benefit from the use of a Tesla^TM vehicle. Available in 12- or 24-month periods.

And the heat then means the air can absorb more moisture.

You want hot dry air for maximum evaporation.

$10 says anti-suicide.

Especially post Brexit.

I promise it will barely be harder than turning Copilot off…

Damn… NZ is every two weeks for plasma, and they can’t pay you.

The UK has somehow managed to have multiple reasonable scale independent parties survive, but agreed.

And that is why electoral reform is important; so that splitting the vote is not penalised.

Written from NZ who adopted MMP about 30 years ago.

Still increases air resistance. It gets hit by air, and that pushes it back into the fuselage.

Larger aircraft commonly have a ram air turbine (RAT) or Air Driven Generator (ADG) to provide some electrical power and hydraulics in certain emergency situations.

On CRJs, it’s right up the front: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxgPrpjByTE

Still delivers a percent or two penalty to fuel burn, and the tiny little generator doesn’t even come remotely close to making up for that.

No. They provide phase shift to give the single-phase induction motors a rotating rather than oscillating magnetic field. They charge and discharge 100/120 times per second depending on grid frequency.

They do not cover inrush current, and would need to be orders of magnitude bigger and a different topology to do so.

Still tens to maybe low hundreds of microfarads.

Try 78: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/life-expectancy.htm

Obviously not everyone reaches that. Even if you set the retirement age at 50, some people would die first.
