I hear that the US has oil and WMDs

Hmm, telescope pointing downwards, huh?

Thoughts and prayers 🙏

I can understand.
We have some new dedicated cycle lanes in our city (I mean, they are a few years old now. But fairly unique in our country).
I feel bad for the cyclists. They have a dedicated path, which pedestrians are super ignorant of (they are better marked than this picture).
My parents think they are a menace when they visit, because they are unaware of them and get menaced by cyclists.
Except, that's literally what roads are. They just grew up with roads and (even faster) cars.

So, I am understanding of the transition.
And everyone needs to call everyone out over it. It will make everyone safer

Have you considered a doctorate?

You are probably underestimating your abilities.
People that worry about overestimating their skills mostly underestimate their skills.

If someone says they are "good" at something, I take it to mean competency and some enthusiasm.
They might make a mistake, but they won't (or at least will rarely) make it twice.
They know how to find the solution to something within that domain of knowledge. It might not be the best solution, but it will be a solution that works.
They are also aware of what they don't know in within the domain. So, they can do C++ but know they can't do embedded programming. Or they can do C#, but know they can't do game dev.

And I would take them at their word for that, until they prove otherwise.
If they are below where they claim their skill is, I would try to help them learn (unless they show no interest in improving).
If they are above where they claim, I would tell them this.

It's always hard to judge our own skills.

US arms should be considered compromised.

If they didn't already have a backdoor, one is being engineered into a "mandatory" update.
US already have an off-switch. Or US will have an off-switch.

Such a shitter that the us became - essentially - a compromised nation. They were such a powerhouse.
They could've remained as a dominant faction. Seems like there are going down the russia-path where they truly expose their inner self, and suffer because of how inadequate they are.

Sounds like:
eat a shit sandwich from the US.
eat a shit sandwich from the EU.

Unless - somehow - the perks from both are enough to outweigh the consequences from both. Which I doubt

It's sad. Also, not really surprising. KSP2 has had a very rough development cycle, and a very rough release.
Do they still support KSP?

She’s just been through her junk email folder and found a “We’ve noticed a new login” email from instagram yesterday

The junk-ing security notices is so common.
A few months ago, my dad said "uh, I got some email from my bank, and now my credit card doesn't work".
The email was describing some problem with his account which would have been so much easy to fix before they cancelled the card.
Similarly, I lost a domain name because the registrar notifications for renewal ended up in my junk mail.

It's probably quite a significant issue. Companies can go "well we tried to contact you" and wash their hands.
Doesn't matter that they also spammed bullshit marketing emails from the same address that issues security/renewal notifications.
Doesn't matter that spam email has been such an issue it is near-impossible to host your own email server (and expect delivery) for a decade or so now.

No, the containers all lock together, and lock to the ship.
Certain parts are more "structural" and get cross braces, extra tie-downs and stuff.
Gravity plays a huge part, and there will be a maximum amount of roll/list. But containers should not go anywhere.
When they do, it's normally because of incorrectly fitted (or missing) connectors, bad load balance, or because a heavy load inside a container shifted when it shouldn't. Probably a combination of these things.

I think the fingers are through the holes, it's just a stupid perspective
