The nice part is that they had two options. They couldn't prove the safety of Starliner completing the crew test flight, but it's good that there are 2 commercial crew vehicles that they could have chosen. That kind of choice is what the commercial crew program is all about.

He'll lose the election, but maga won't end. He had poisoned politics in a way that won't just disappear after he loses an election and hopefully a few court cases.

YouTube shorts either don't start or they play through one and a half times with audio and no video.
Sometimes regular videos sometimes won't start well and I restart Firefox and then they work.
No other site that I know of has problems like that.

They did host a git server at git.mozilla.org, but took it down years ago.

So videos that reference timestamps in their own video won't work? And comments that reference a timestamp won't work?

I like the idea of heat pumps for efficiency, but I fear I would be like you. I'm in a mild climate and my (gas heat) winter utility bills are so low already I have a feeling a more efficient heat pump would actually cost more to run.

If you live in a place that rarely stops below 40F, it's not worth the extra cost of bringing a gas line into the house, just use electricity.
However I'm right in the middle of that patch of the south and have gas heat and water heater. I'm looking into a heat pump for my next one, but gas is way cheaper than electricity here, so we'll see...

For astronomy, check out Dr. Becky.

Lemmy and kbin are two different pieces of software that both implement the activitypub protocol in a way that they can federate with each other. So it's not just a different UI on top of Lemmy backend (which is also possible).
When backing out of the submit page you get this question where you have to guess which button does what.

It would be nice if you could collapse a comment to hide all children, third make for easier scanning of high level comments without needing to scroll through all the replies. Relay it my reddit app of choice, and its thread navigation and searching tools are awesome, is you want some inspiration.
