That's why I'm upgrading myself off of AT&T and on to a modern provider.

I miss having a quick toggle to turn GPS on and off. It was on some of my early smartphones. Now I have to dig into the location menu...

This is version 1.0. CERN education has a great track record of native language activities and will no doubt expand to other languages assuming this course is successful and useful.

My grandfather referred to it as "stinky foot cheese". I still covered my spaghetti with it...he did not. lol

I have a physical copy of your documentary, which I finally decided to buy probably a few months after it was no longer for sale (thank you ebay). It is a memory trip for me and I learn something new every rewatch. The BBS scene in the late 80s and early to mid 90s was amazing, and is something I miss -- though I dip my toe in telnet bbs'es from time to time to reminisce.

The NASA weekly movie selection for the ISS is the classic 1997 film "Event Horizon".

I know I've found my people when I remember the same relatively obscure video about a relatively specific repair of a long forgotten (by most) device.

Fermilab operated the Tevatron until the LHC was online. They then pivoted to emphasize neutrino research, which is perfectly doable with the linac and the main injector ring. There is a lot to learn about neutrinos. I certainly do not foresee any future where Fermilab is shuttered. There are always frontiers in physics worth exploring.

Kind of makes me want to hook a multi-mode decoding radio to the output of a high efficiency (lol) neutrino detector to see if any of those extrasolar neutrinos are just interstellar packet radio...

I bought an Extech CO210 CO2/Temp/Humidity datalogger about ten years ago. It's been a very useful, reliable device. Maybe there are newer models or different manufacturers (e.g. the Aranet 4) that make ones that would work for your application case. I didn't just want the readout, I wanted datalogging, and back then it was way more expensive to do datalogging than to just have a readout.

The only competition it would have would be a Microline ML184.

Only humans have real names. I'm a figment of the computer's imagination.

Okay...I think this might be interesting. I've seen and read a lot of "math for dumb physicists" works, which as a physicist...yeah, I see their point. This could help me understand the math wizards a little better.

Somewhere I still have the StarOffice CD/s that I received (bought?) when it was a SUN microsystems product in the...maybe very early 2000s. And now I use LibreOffice...so, fairly successful software.

Does this analysis also consider the wide ranging massive impact of fentanyl and similar drugs that have skyrocketed drug overdose problems in all communities in the past five years?
