The comic lists tall structures existing in this moment. Aside from not starting at ground level, as an experiment, the space tether does not persist until today.

Usually, you notice it, as Mastodon automatically adds an @username@instance for everybody the commment replies to, Lemmy doesn’t.

That wouldn’t be good for the fragile ecosystem in the Baltic sea.

The known types of angler fish are much smaller than humans and they do not prey on researchers.^[citation ^needed]
- Comment on U.S. start-up unveils ‘world’s largest’ transparent organic PV window 2 weeks ago:
Maybe, as heating is contained in the term “HVAC”, there is no real contribution to heating beside perhaps better isolation, and HVAC was used beside only the “VAC” part being affected.
- Comment on Im watching an episode of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, filmed in black and white. In this scene a guest is showing glass making. What is going on with the film to make these black areas by the flame? 3 weeks ago:
No offense taken.
- Comment on Im watching an episode of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, filmed in black and white. In this scene a guest is showing glass making. What is going on with the film to make these black areas by the flame? 3 weeks ago:
I would suggest it’s the shadow the flame throws onto the coat of the glass maker, as they probably had a light source behind the camera while filming.

Yes, you can:
If you beat the blood, it turns pink and becomes a stable foam - perfect for baking sponge cakes or meringues.

- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 3 months ago:
In Germany, you may also use the built in DVB-C receiver of the TV for free TV and an additional CI card for pay TV. But cable companies want you to use their set top boxes.
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 3 months ago:
Similar for me. I have an old Philips “smart” (actually today it is very dumb as basically all services are disabled and all apps heavily outdated) TV which I occasionally use for watching TV, but most times I use the attached Raspberry Pi with Kodi for watching public German Mediathek, Youtube or Amazon Prime.
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 3 months ago:
A TV usually comes with a remote, a monitor doesn’t. Additionally, you can use it to watch linear TV if you don’t feel like making an election.
- Comment on How can I migrate my current Lemmy profile to another lemmy instance? 4 months ago:
AfaIk, posts and comments cannot be exported.
For the rest you may use the “export settings” function in the “personal settings” section on the webpage of your Lemmy instance (yet I don’t know what is actually exported).
Alternatively, you may use one of the tools mentioned in this post (the post is in German, the linked webpages are in English): https://slrpnk.net/post/10923543

Ah, obviously you’re right and bash is less tolerant than I’ve had in my mind. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/an-introduction-to-useful-bash-aliases-and-functions
- Comment on Can Bash aliases be nested? 4 months ago:
Preferred over alias is function llaa { … }. Alias is for backwards compatibility.
Again what learned. What is wrong with having spaces around the equals sign, though?

The 600000 € probably include the development cost. Thus, on a larger scale, the cost per unit length will decrease significantly.

- Comment on Starlink is increasingly interfering with astronomy, scientists say 5 months ago:
Considering their instance, I’d assume they’re more out of their mind than huffing Elmo.
Another important part in this argumentation is that each type of telescope has its use case:
Extraterrestrial telescopes, as they are not objected by atmospheric blur can obtain much better ‘images’ from the cosmos even of weak, low brightness signals, which makes them best for observing the ‘far’ cosmos until the boundaries of recognition.
Yet, they are and always will be much more expensive and more difficult to maintain than terrestrial telescopes. Thus, using them for observing our cosmic front yard, the milky way, is like shooting with canons at sparrows.
Due to their cost, extraterrestrial telescopes also will always be ‘few’, too few to effectively keep track of the objects around us. Thus, ‘cheap’ terrestrial telescopes, large professional ones and small ones run by amateurs, will always be needed to observe the objects ‘closely’ around us, i.e. in our galaxis. - Comment on Starlink is increasingly interfering with astronomy, scientists say 5 months ago:
Don’t forget important discoveries are also made by amateurs, who permanently observe the night sky and measure the coordinates, i.e. their relative positions, of luminating objects. This allows others, mostly professionals, to calculate their motions and obtain information about the (hidden) masses, i.e. luminating and non luminating objects, inducing and influencing them.
- Comment on Starlink is increasingly interfering with astronomy, scientists say 5 months ago:
The number of satellites in orbit around Earth is rapidly increasing, with some 100,000 expected to be in place by 2030. And as their numbers grow, so does the difficulty of observing the universe from Earth.
So basically, our billion dollar radio telescopes are blind on certain frequencies during the rest of this decade.
- Comment on This Nightclub Turns Body Heat into Energy - YouTube 5 months ago:
The heat is probably stored in water by using a simple counter flow heat exchanger. So at night they are using the ‘cool’ ground water for cooling and during the day, they are using the ‘warm’ ground water for heating, probably involving a heat pump.

Maybe https://speechify.com/da/ works. At least they mention the recreation of the voice of your beloved one on their German page.

Maybe the term you are searching for is “AI voice cloning”. The engine of https://elevenlabs.io/voice-cloning claims to be able to understand and reproduce even Danish.
