...I mean it actually sounds quite good? That's probably better secured than your password manager which has a very similar risk profile.

... It should have been built like that from the start though! And this relies on Microsoft never watering it down so they can skim user data off the top....

Those sound like things that should have been in the original specification?

The article didn't say who is paying for the delay, TFL, or the train manufacturer?

Wow, that site is annoying on mobile...

Game looks like it could be interesting, will wait for steam reviews.

Maybe I could have been more explicit. Without the planetary alignment that made the voyager probes possible an equivalent mission would be ridiculously expensive/impossible due to the fuel requirements (and wouldn't be able to visit all of the planets)

If starship/new glen/the rocket lab one work, it might become more feasible.

Instead, sending smaller, simpler probes that just visit one planet/moon would be much more cost effective, but still expensive.

We have already got a lot of the low hanging planetary science fruit from existing missions. New missions would need new/novel sensors or need Landers/aircraft which make them much more expensive.

Even just a 'standard' interplanetary mission isn't just an out of the box job like current earth satalites are becoming.

The voyager probes only got as far as they did because of their trajectory that got some massive (and rare) slingshots, it will take ages for the new horizons probe to get anywhere near as far.

We could probably spam missions to some other planets, who will pay for it though? We are not at the stage where an 'out of the box's mission can do that I think?

Waiting for the re-drawing of the text on the lid to effect the flatness of the cpu and ruin cooling or something.....

Still, a much nicer issue to have than Intel is fighting!

Part of the problem is that most people will spend most of their time around people of a similar wealth level. They will therefore always be around people richer than themselves and generally see less people that are much poorer (at least in a personal context).

This means that 'rich' people don't feel rich. (Unless they are self aware enough to realise it). It also means that your references for morals etc are now other rich people rather than 'normal' people (although it's normal to them!)

Therefore, they always want to acquire more money, and their references for how to go about that are the richer people who have already done similar things.

It's extremely had to be politically neutral for a global community.

The centre of the political spectrum in one country might be left/right in another.

Then comes the extreme ideologies, are they trolling or genuine? Is that opinion considered hateful in some countries?

It's a complete minefield. Why would someone without an agenda to push even try? Most neutrals would just say 'no politics'.

Respect to the computer scientist who sorted that out. That has got to be an extremely satisfying bug to fix.
