Mostly navigation and handsfree phonecalls

Wasn’t the US a part of the winning team?

Apparently not… Is it somehow still widely used. It’s the most likely paper to give you paper cuts though https://physicsworld.com/a/researchers-cut-to-the-chase-on-the-physics-of-paper-cuts/

My previous phone was a Nokia 6289

A colleague had a Nokia 9110 back in 1998, that was very advanced back then

I still have my HTC touch dual and my HTC Magic in a drawer somewhere. Those were such exciting phones, coming from a Nokia.

Flashing Cyanogen Rom and custom recoveries felt so bleeding edge. Now a new phone is just an incremental update. A lot more stable and capable, bit kinda boring

That Trauma Center sign looks traumatized

As a European, it’s so odd coming to the US. I was going to the US to see some NFL games. Picked a hotel 1,5 miles from Giant Stadium, thinking we could just walk there. Nope! 20 minute car ride, or 90 minutes by foot

That’s a very valid point

True. Didn’t think of it that way

347 apparently, across 7 years of operation

I think messing up on NASA projects will hurt a company way more. Of course aviation is supposed to be safe, but even the 737 Max has flown thousands of hours. Comparing how many people that have flown on them, versus how many that have been hurt/killed, is still a small number, which is still is supposed to be zero of course.

Traversing space, a pinnacle of engineering, is quite another level of danger, and if you insist on your product being functional and safe, and then kills two astronauts, would cause a whole different level of backlash

In this particular situation, if Boeing says it’s safe, I would be inclined to trust them, because if they make the return happen, and it fails, Boeing is done fore. As a crew member though, I would pass for sure and wait for a Dragon

I was thoroughly impressed with the skill level of the participants. Although I haven’t been to a high level event since Covid, there were a lot of elements I’ve never seen done in women’s battles

Now I really look forward to the mens event too, to see if they have evolved just as much

Imagine planning to be away for 8 days, and then ending up being away for 8 months.

If it’s Boeing, you’re not going (home)

At least they made it to the ISS Let’s hope they manage to be able to fill in the roles of those not going to the ISS for the next rotation. I recall that they do a lot of training to be able to handle different operations on the ISS.

Unity engine is also of Danish origin

So we do have a few large innovative companies 🙂

No innovative drugs? Wegovy is made by Novo Nordisk.

Novo is the most valuable company in Europe and 16th in the world

I use the Google calendar, with different types of events in different colors sub-calendars

• One the things, that only I need to know (eg. Refill the automatic cat feeder, dentist appointment)
• one shared with the wife, so she can see, if I have plans to see friends or similar, and she has a similar I can see
• one shared for the daughters appointment
• one shared that contains my work schedule
• Public holidays (Maintained by Google, so always up to date)
• Birthdays and anniversaries All of them displayed on a widget
