You can visit your bank in person, send a check to pay for your apartment, call your doctor to schedule an appointment, etc. Not everything has to be done online.

A website that pulls this crap is a website I will simply not use.

It might take them a few more centuries than us to develop the tech, but just because we use chemical engines doesn’t mean it’s the only viable method. I’m sure they’d figure something out eventually.

You’re sort of right. The change in distance from the surface is insignificant, but a spacecraft orbiting a bigger planet has to travel further with each orbit so its speed must be faster to avoid falling out of orbit, even if the gravitational acceleration at its orbital height is the same.

Pretty sure the distances are to scale. It would be harder to see things if they also sized the Earth and Moon correctly, but there are some good images that show them fully to scale.

A much simpler animation: Animation

Mint does have a graphical app store. Steam also has a .deb package on their website to download, which opens by default in the GUI installer when you double click it. Using the CLI is fine, but it’s definitely not necessary.

Buy old PC, play Minecraft, be happy.

I was really hoping for a lunar impact, oh well :/

It’s your phone, it’s your app store, it’s your browser, it’s your email, it’s your storage, it’s your search, it’s your maps, it’s your music, it’s your news, it’s your credit card, it’s your password manager

Google is so deeply integrated into most people’s lives that they can’t imagine going without it.

Somewhat unrelated, but wtf is the link you posted? The full (currently broken) link is:

Which, URL decoding the proxied URL, gives you:

Decoding once again:

And one final time actually gets to the original link: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/00/Łajno_końskie_400.jpg

Was this AI upscaled? It’s too coherent to be fully AI slop but has a lot of artifacts.

The next line implicates the de.mschae23.grindenchantments mod; seems like a pretty clear starting point for troubleshooting.

Most of the journey is spent traveling very close to light speed. It’s not a linear ramping up and ramping down of speed, since it takes more energy to accelerate the closer you get to light speed. Rather you quickly accelerate to near light speed and spend most of the trip working on that last small bit of velocity.
