To be fair your link does say "designed to bypass internet filtering mechanisms or content restrictions", so it sounds like SSH, work VPNs, banking etc. don't count because they aren't designed to get around the porn filters.

It still seems pointless because most of the VPN services are based outside the US for legal reasons anyway.

They could, but probably the only real reason why they maintained access to the ISS is because they get paid for it, and because they wanted to keep their independent capability alive. Aside from those reasons, they probably aren't all that interested in going there.

Can't be a straw man, I was making no argument to tear down.
Also, it's time for some rudimentary English education.
"I'm what you dipshits call..." does not imply you personally called me anything. Please tell me you understood that and were just being lazy.
That aside, nobody here is blind to how you paint "Democrats" and "the left", so your dodge isn't even just lazy, it's also intellectually dishonest.

A Democrat is a member of the Democratic party, or at the very least a voter who identifies as such.
Ergo, I am not.

Indeed I have. Not since 2012, I'll grant you.

Many, particularly at local levels.
These days, they're all MAGA morons unfortunately, so I'm still waiting for you people who live in a fever dream of constantly fellating Trump while a stoma supplies you with a constant supply of air so that you don't ever have to stop to fucking fade back into their trailers.

God, yet another day, yet another misuse of the term ad hominem.
It's so ridiculous. Certainly one amongst you has some fucking formal education, no?
Unless I used the insult as a tu quoque argument, it's just a fucking insult, shit-for-brains. Trying to dress it up in big words doesn't alter its nature.

Except not, lol.
Though I suppose in the universe you live in where you're either sucking Trump's cock or a big-D Democrat- then sure, I guess I am.

China is building a maglev line between Beijing and Shanghai, which will then extend south. Given how fast they build conventional high speed rail, I expect that expansion will be rapid.

It's an interesting design too, and a largely domestic one. They do have a German built maglev in Shanghai, but the new EMUs they have been showing off bare little resemblance beyond using electromagnetic suspension. I'm looking forward to comparing it to Japan's electrodynamic suspension.

The switches moved before the conversation between the pilot and copilot took place.

Your proposed sequence of events:
Engines shut off.
Pilot flips fuel switches to cutoff.
Copilot asks pilot if he cut the engines.
Pilot says they didn't.
Someone then flips the fuel switches back to run.

Makes a whole lot of fucking sense. No, seriously. I bet you're the best fry cook in town.

My favorite was Wilson's 2 years of being incapacitated and his wife elevating herself to Acting President.

You've just moved the goalposts.

You said:
[So you're saying America elected] [one of the worst leaders of all time anywhere.]

That dumbshit isn't anywhere close to one of the worst leaders of all time anywhere. That is, again, one of the dumbest fucking things I have ever read.
When he's got a few million dead under his belt, we can begin to talk about his ranking under the "worst" category of "of all time anywhere".

If you'd like to limit that to say, "American Presidents", then alright- we can play ball with that.
Quit being a fucking moron.

Sucks as a description, too.

Sealevel rise (per year) during the MWPs was an actual (correctly used) order of magnitude higher than today. So scale-wise, it was far more significant. Speed-wise, the level of change was much more rapid.

Correct. Today's problem is a different kind, and one that is far more dangerous the extant ecosystem.

This is one of the ways that "Climate Change" fucks as a description. "Global Warming" really was always better.
The problem isn't that the climate is changing. Life works around that. The real danger is that it's warming- that it's trying to adapt to a warmer and warmer world. There will be no equilibrium until it stops, and the world will get less and less habitable to us.

I'm not a Democrat. I said some of their values align with mine.
I've been an independent my entire life. I am, however, a liberal.

I'm what you dipshits call one of the "Coastal Elites".
People with a substantial income and net worth that are somehow also communists (weird).

Your inability to see any nuance in positions is because you're a stupid person. It's ok. Your time in the sun is almost over, now. It'll be a while before America empowers morons again.

Or, perhaps, just make the process take more time, so that a copilot 1) can easily see that it's happening, 2) put a stop to it
You need to be able to shut off the engines with 1 single pilot, but you don't want 1 pilot to do it if another pilot countermands them (i guess there's a weakness too, but less of one)

I do feel like we can do better, but I don't feel like there's any way to make it perfectly safe. At the end of the day- the guy is piloting the plane- there are a near infinite ways he can crash it.
But we want the redundant pilots to be able to prevent that from happening, if possible.

Captain Steeeve is a fucking dipshit who promulgated flat out misinformation for views.

Engines shut down. That's why data streams are evaluated for why.
This shutdown was manual- accidental or otherwise.

All of the conspiracy theorizing about ways the engines both could have shut off are all based on ignoring one fundamental fact- that the switches were were moved to cutoff.

They fucking all were.
Don't watch pilots on YouTube.

Indisputable is too strong of a word, yes.

But disputed is as well.
We're currently in the throw-spaghetti-at-the-wall phase of coping with what happened.
Some people are very personally invested in that pilot not having cratered that plane.

The disputes become less credible every passing day, and their credibility was strained to begin with.

Complete bullshit.

The engines were turned back on- by the copilot- to save the craft.
The engines did not shut down due to an interruption in throttle control- it was recorded as going to off.
Both Geoffrey Thomas and Richard Godfrey have been consistently wrong, to the point where I no longer watch any pilots on YouTube, since listening to how wrong they end up being is starting to erode my trust in their ability to pilot aircraft.
