This map convinces me of that. Even amongst the people voting in a dem primary, the rural people preferred the white church boy. Crockett is more qualified, but Talarico has a better chance of actually winning.
Fortunately, they were both good candidates.
Israel will keep fighting to the last American.
Heat energy is primarily dissipated as infrared light which moves at the speed of light. There is no way for space to accumulate heat. If that were the case the entire solar system would be unlivable. The IR emitted by satellites is truly negligible in comparison to the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the sun.
The area of radiator needed directly corresponds to the amount of power harvested by the solar panels. It doesn't matter what the load is. So a compute frame with the same amount of solar panels as the space station would need approximately the same radiatot area as the ISS, unless you are bringing nuclear power into the mix.
I agree that space based datacenters are a bad idea, but the thermals really are not the gotcha people are making them out to be.
Radiators in space work by radiating electromagnetic energy(light). Heat can only accumulate in matter, not in space, so that is definitely not one of the things we need to worry about.
With radiators just like with every existing satellite system.

Very large scale datacenters would likely have some nasty fluid handling problems to solve.
I'll just note that I am not a fan of putting internet infrastructure in space. I think polluting the upper atmosphere with a bunch of metals every time a satellite deorbits will certainly have negative consequences. So IMO space should be limited to things we can't do with earthbound infrastructure.
That sounds similar to what would be called a "medical examiner" in the US.
The rotten ones I brought to the compost this morning most certainly were not. 🤢
I've thought about this quite a bit and really consider advertising to be a form of assault on attention. The presumption that companies are entitled to our attention without our consent feels like an attack on our own agency.
Before we get to banning advertising though we first need to figure out how to connect people to businesses that have goods and services they actually want to seek out. Word of mouth is great, but it's insufficient. We need some sort of directory. The yellow pages were surprisingly functional, but some modern accessibility and ability to update info is needed. I think the 10,000 pound gorilla in this space is Google maps. However, alphabet is fundamentally an advertising company at this point and prioritizes selling ad placement over user experience. Could organic maps eventually serve as a searchable business directory? I'm not sure. I think any open source initiative would quickly be ruined if companies thought that rigging that system woild get them more customers.
Is a public option viable? I'm not sure. There's a lot of equal access and gatekeeping concerns there. We shouldn't allow obvious scams to be listed, but what's the threshold and who makes that determination? Is someone's Mary Kay mlm a legitimate business or scam? The potential for corruption is very high in an endeavor like this. Imagine if someone is buddies with an administrator and can get their competition completely delisted. Such an endeavor would likely face lots of litigation over claims of unfair treatment.
Many companies I think would be eager to stop paying for advertising if they had a means of connecting to customers that was effective and lower cost, but to achieve this, you're literally trying to compete with the entirety of google/alphabet.
The link I included in my comment goes over driving one in recognizeable notes to play the nokia tune. It's worth a read if this concept interests you.
They use piezo buzzers which work differently to most speakers. I would guess that the units used in smoke alarms and microwaves generally have integrated drivers that only operate at a single frequency. However, it is possible to drive piezo discs at different frequencies. Their ouput will always approximate a sound wave though, so don't expect to be able to use them like a normal electrodynamic/ voice coil speaker to play arbitrary sounds.
Crockett has 3 yrs in the Texas House and 3 years in the US House.
Talarico's 8 yrs have been solely in the Texas House.
I think most people weight national legislative experience significantly higher than state legislative experience.
Plus Crockett has a demonstrated track record of getting national news coverage opposing Trump.
I'm really not looking to get into a debate though. I'm not a Texan and have only casually followed this race. They seem like remarkably comparable candidates overall. I just wanted to say that from the outsider's perspective, Talarico seems to have a better chance in the generals.
