Landings are pretty much your first focus after basic air work, and you can solo in 15-20 hours typically. A full license is around 80 hours (at least here in Canada), and she had a ppl already.

When i soloed my instructor was kind enough to get out of the plane while we were on the ground. What a horrible experience for this student.

Not for any modern console. Easier to sell you a portable android box that can run emulators.

Personally I’m fine with paid apps here, lots of people use tailscale for example. I think the larger issue is the drive-by spamming without contributing outside of their own promotion thread.

I like the comment elsewhere in this thread referencing a subreddit that requires X comments over Y days in the community first.

They should hang out a while first and not have only posts promoting their software, and not only have comments in those threads.

The lemmy attitude is very anti commercialization, and they don’t know any better. That doesn’t mean we should allow it.

I think new accounts that show up to shil their app should be banned. They’re not actively participating in the community, it’s just spam. There’s been a huge uptick recently.

Not quite open hardware, but it’s minimal compute - https://www.slate.auto/

It was… ok.

Maybe I’ve just been watching too many vfx breakdowns on YouTube, but I found them disappointing in this. The animals and the car / train scene in particular.

Plenty, the first that comes to mind is Everything everywhere all at once.

He’s missing the super long ear hair tufts. Here’s my guy for comparison

piefed.ca is set to just follow lemmy.ca, not sure how often it refreshes…

Some instances operate on an allowlist rather than just blindly being open, but honestly the number of problem instances is much lower than you might expect. Most are just wide open. Spinning up an instance will cost you some time and a domain, so it’s not exactly a zero cost effort.

Honestly I have no idea what “chan” has to do with this, I only know it as the japanese honorific. Edit: Oh, chan like 4chan? That one didn’t occur to me.

Thanks, just defederated us

For pc, very. I spent hours downloading rips of games off a BBS. One of the few games I bought was duke nukem 3d and that’s just because I wanted the build level editor that I couldn’t find a download of.

For consoles, less so. I had a pirated “100 in 1” nes cart of from China but all the games were crap. Cartridge copying wasn’t a thing.

I vaguely remember a n64 device that could load cartridge images off a zip drive or something. Nobody had one though.

Piracy became bigger again when the ps1 mod chip came out and we had brand new cd burners. Dreamcast too.

I’m quite happy with Thunder

The science behind this one confuses me. Bluetooth is short range, and gps is too low power to penetrate. There’s no way a gps will get lock from inside a ship, and someone would need a compatible app and internet to relay it out.

The issue isn’t the tracker, it’s the person with their personal phone and the app that relayed the position of the tracker while they were in cell range of the shore.

Via LA told Streaming Media that it contacted unlicensed media companies during 2025 to give them “a window to secure a license” under the previous terms, but the company didn’t go to the trouble of issuing a press release or public announcement, opting instead for direct outreach. Any company that didn’t respond or wasn’t contacted now faces the new rate structure as its starting point for negotiations.
