I get emails notifying me of WhatsApp messages. All the more amazing when I don’t have a WhatsApp acct. (Phishing spam, obviously)

Ouch :)

Thanks. If they can serve Seoul they certainly can serve other Asian destinations like Beijing, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Tokyo.

There appears to be flights from South Korea, Frankfurt, and London, in addition to Canada and Mexico (source : Wikipedia) but not from other cities in Asia. But I guess there’s no reason why there can’t be flights from more destinations, since there’s already an international airport in Las Vegas - other than airport…

Landslides. Flooding. Traffic accidents. Power lines down causing blackouts. Sometimes, you just can’t win.

Assuming a conservative 4 miles per kWh, that’s 62.5 kWh in 15 minutes, or an average charging power of 250 kW. Doesn’t look like something that’s going to happen at home. Not until we all get our own Mr Fusion anyway.

I’m most disturbed by the months of solitary confinement during the investigation.

There are books that are fun, light reads, and there are books that require multiple readings to get the most out of them. With some books, I discover new things when I re-read them. Not all complex stories are worth reading a second time, obviously. Dune is a complex story with layers, that I personally found to be…

Didn’t start with them - first case I was more deeply aware of was the prosecution of Dr Lee in the late 90s : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wen_Ho_Le…
