God damn, they’re an asshole. Never even heard of them, but that comment was wild and out of left field

Gotta kill 10,000 people just to get a message to one place.

What happens if you die in transit? Could you? 🤣

If this were the case, what if your soul also had to adhere to the speed of light on its way to reincarnation. So iw you were reincarnated into a creature 1000 LY away, it wouldn’t happen for 1000 years.

You might be right. I am also not a lawyer, and I’m also in the US. I assumed that they would arrest since Walmart is technically provate property, L&P might have had her legally removed for trespassing? I don’t know, who knows. It might also just be that the police were just listening to the orders of their corporate overlords 🤷

I’m guessing that the L&P staff are acting as legal proxies, and therefore can press charges

Yes and no

What do you mean “tab completion is AI based”? We have had tab completion for years before LLMs were a thing.

If you have access to the router, you could probably adjust their device to have random packet loss. Which would effectively slow them down, might piss them off.

As for the deauth attack, it definitely isn’t “easy”. But here’s a tool to do it. https://github.com/aircrack-ng/mdk4. However I doubt this’ll be interesting to you.

Also, microwave (2.4GHz interference) won’t affect Wifi 5/6, given they’re in the 5+GHz range

I don’t wanna be the “well the book said…” Asshole, but it is one of my favorite books. So…

Well the book said that they actually have a dedicated (well a few, redundancy, you know?) Astrophage powered DC generators. They turn miniscule amounts of astrophage into electric power for the ship to run its systems. There’s also battery backups.

Minor spoiler for something that had more detail in the book, but also happened in the movie (towards the end, with an explosion).

The spin drives also don’t generate electricity for thrust, so there isn’t really any way to “siphon” it off.

However I am inclined to believe your train of thought, if nothing else maybe they just didn’t have a way to use the DC generator while fuel wasn’t flowing for the engines (although that seems like a design flaw, but the ship was definitely rushed)

Good point on the radiators vs astrophage. Gotta say I didn’t think about what would need to be radiated.

Thanks for the pictures, definitely nice to visualize it! I will continue to think that they’re radiators as that makes more sense, and it was just a goof that they were rotated the wrong way. Makes me less angry than there being solar panels on an astrophage powered ship. Unless it is there as a backup method?

Hmmm, maybe. But same question. Astrophage can sink a ton of heat energy, so you theoretically wouldn’t need radiators. Granted, it would only let you cool things down to 98°C (or so, can’t remember the exact temp) which isn’t exactly cool. But still.

However I’m gonna stick with your interpretation, since I like that better.

Yeah, the centrifuge is really my biggest issue with the movie.

And then fact that the ship has solar panels.

Other than those two minor nitpicks, it’s a fantastic movie. PHM is one of my favorite books, so I was pretty happy with the movie overall.

Like how he straight up said he was worse (in terms of people his genocide has killed) thank Hitler and Ghengis Khan…

I’m curious if the Wolfram Alpha of 10 years ago could have answered this properly. I remember fucking around with weird math related word questions in Wolfram back in school, like “how many calories are in a cubic lightyear of butter” and it given a reasonable sounding answer (and backed it up).
