15·11 months agoThere are ways of creating oxygen onboard submarines. The only real limits to time submerged is the amount of food the boat can carry.
Here is a video by Destin from the Smarter Every Day youtube channel explaining oxygen generation onboard submarines. https://youtu.be/g3Ud6mHdhlQ

1·11 months agoYou’re right. I only wanted to include the search term for anyone wanting to pursue this on their own. I think it is better to search the proper term and build knowledge from there than to summarize it and hope laymen understand the underlying principles.
I wish I could give you a source but I recall this from college almost 20 years ago. If you read into “contract law” you will arrive there pretty quickly. It’s one of the main principles
You’re right. I just want to add the proper terms for people to search for in case this information helps them. The main matters considered in contract law are “consideration and performance”. Happy hunting y’all. Take down these corporations that do not care for you.
I once successfully defended myself from a lawsuit by invoking a previous TOS. The court allowed me to choose any version of the TOS that benefited me the most. It was akin the doctrine in contract law that ambiguity is always found to be detrimental to the drafter of the contract.

I got corporate involved and they said the dealerships should fix it for free but they could not force them to. Corporate said that if I paid to have my car towed to a dealership 600 miles away they would repair it under warranty.
The estimates I received from the dealerships wanted $12000 to replace the becm. The car was valued at $15000 so that made no financial sense to repair.
The car only had 62,000 miles on it and was in perfect condition other than the becm.
Same thing happened to mine. Except 3 Chevy dealerships refused to fix it under warranty. Despite there being a service bulletin on exactly that failure. They even charged me for the diagnostics.
Every car I ever owned was a Chevy but after this I will never buy another GM product.
So you don’t dry yourself after using a bidet?

Trump is a traitor.
It was never a bet. It was him attempting to inflate the price by saying he would buy it above the share price at the time. It was an attempt at market manipulation and the SEC made him go through with it.

I like to peruse code and have read a lot of it from the sources that make it available. It’s not always the languages I know but even then I can get the idea of what most of it is doing. There are some code bases that are too big for any one person to fully comprehend. That said, I think the only way for one to be confident in open source is to read it yourself which is a problem for most as coding knowledge is not common combine with the size of some.
So it’s always going to be trusting trust for most people. The fact that it is open source and makes available the code for review limits malice to a much greater degree than proprietary ever will.
Nobody outside a select few know the real dirt inside the proprietary code that Apple puts out. Open source is the only truth that you can see for yourself. Apple is the antithesis of open source.
Yes and no. Buy a used pixel phone and don’t give google a dime on the new pixel that is not fully supported yet.
