Here is what's missing from that MS document:

MS says this about it:

After inspecting the HIF and booster, BlueOrigin reported that both are okay.

What's more important is that the China Space Agency refers to them as astronauts, not taikonauts, so it's time to stop inventing new words for 'astronaut' for every country that puts humans in space.
We don't do it for any other occupation, so why needlessly complicate the word 'astronaut'?

That's not quite what I meant. I expect the Start menu to contain:
- everything that is part of the OS
- every application I install.

To me, the phrase "discover new applications" sounds like Microsoft intend to deploy shovelware, where the first indication that anything new has been installed would be new crap in the Start menu. That's what I don't want.

I used that extensively on older Windows versions, but the recent versions have enshittified the Start menu to the point where that no longer works. OpenShell remedies that.

I don't want to "discover" new applications in the Start menu, ever.
The ONLY applications that appear in the Start menu should be the ones that I PUT THERE by installing them, so I don't need to discover them.

things like:
- rapid movement of heavy structures like those grid fins and the engines
- rapid pumping of propellant
- separation of the stages

For comparison, a single Space shuttle main engine turbopumps were rated at 17 MW for the oxygen side, and 53 MW for the hydrogen side.

That's not a series of tubes, THIS is a series of tubes!

I asked because I play with the speed control on videos too, and I can rarely set it above 1.5x before it gets unintelligible. But I guess for those "I've heard it all before" videos that doesn't matter.

5x? Are you a chipmunk? Overdosed on cafeine?

Giant Lego bricks did happen, at a slightly larger scale, over here in .nl. A few years ago, a concrete factory started making bricks of about 160 x 80 x 80 cm with 8 pyramids on top, and matching holes in the bottom. They did this initially with the leftovers that came back from building sites. These turned out to be ideal as roadblocks, for marking boundaries at building sites, building temporary walls etc.

In the EU, standard e-bikes are regulated to a top speed of 25 km/h. We already see an increase in bicycle accidents due to cyclists being unable to handle 25 km/h safely. This applies to kids who don't know their limits, and older people who have been cycling without assistance all their lives and are now getting an ebike for the first time, and are driving faster than their reaction speed warrants.

I have a faster model (similar to the Class 3 from the article) with a top speed of 45 km/h. It is regulated as a moped, so I need liability insurance, a drivers' licence and I'm required to wear a helmet specifically for this class.

In the part of the Netherlands where I live, I get the option to use this on the road network, or on bike paths. On a bike path in the city, at 45 km/h I'd be a danger to unassisted bikes which rarely do more than 20 km/h. 45 km/h is also incompatible with the road surface of many bike paths, and with the limited sightlines into site entrances etc. When I'm on a bike path, I rarely exceed 30 km/h.

CA's approach isn't "ignorance and stupidity", it's paying attention to what has already happened in other places.

So the albedo goes from 12% to 16-18%. Is that significant, in view of the four orders of magnitude brightness difference we already have?

in what way do you think I did that?

The moon is not that reflective: on average it only reflects 12% of the sunlight that falls onto it. Still, that's 12% of 1360 W/m2, which means the surface still is four orders of magnitude brighter than the very dim stars.

IDK if the crew took photos of the stars. Just for fun, try taking photos of the stars tonight, under these circumstances:
1. you have to use a large DSLR.
2. you can't put it on a tripod, the only support you are allowed to use is the windows in your house.
Try keeping the camera still for the 10 seconds of exposure you need.

Voyager used a simpler method: pack all of the Pu-238 in close, and just radiate the excess power away.
