The linked article has a table that gives 1.74 uW/cm^2. However glancing over the rest of the paper there's a ton of variability of output.

That requires the people at the top to have the intelligence to hire a competent IT department and keep frequent enough back ups. This is a line of though most of American civilian leadership rejects outright. They see IT as nothing but a huge cost that can be cut at a moment's notice and then offshored to some third world country to "save money." A move which invariably costs them more money, but that's next quarter's problem.

Wait, didn't you just describe a fair chunk of the US?

I get your anger, but if they no longer have the license to play the song, they cannot allow you to play it, even if the file is on your device. I don't find it scummy in the least. You didn't own the file, you were renting it from Spotify.

It's almost like most of the time in history cutting edge tech tended to be unusable by the public until it matured enough to get businesses interested. Then they'd invest in a usability layer that was unimportant to the cutting edge research.

I'll tell you what they're missing - maturity. They're acting like a spoiled child.

For old timers like myself, Tom Baker was our first Doctor. He's the bar by which all others are judged by us.

He is well aware. But if he did that he'd make maybe one tenth of a percent less and we can't have that!

Won't happen in Texas. There are so many people in this state convinced that unions are a horrible evil. Then they complain about how their job mistreats them, doesn't pay them enough, etc, etc, etc. You know, all the problems a union fixes. These people here are the very definition of sheeple.

After experiencing my own false memories and how easy they came to me, I will never, ever trust an eyewitness account. Give me video proof or gtfo.

No one should trust another human's account as being 100% accurate and true. The only thing that's trustworthy are recordings from secure sources.
