Thank you for the clarification. Best way to get the right answer is to post the wrong one.

Whoops! I said exponential instead of inverse squared. What a crackpot I am.

From my layman perspective, yes the measured gravity would be double it’s original value if measured from the same place.

Gravity is an [edit: inverse squared] function, so it gets weaker at an exponential rate as you move away from the source. But even if it’s a value of 1.0 at Earth’s surface and .02 at some distant point from Earth, doubling Earth’s gravity would double both values to 2.0 and .04, respectively.

You shoved it full of towels and… Is that a pillow? Sounds like a high risk of ruining a component with static discharge.

Best approach would be to take out the heavy components, like GPU and possibly CPU cooler and then bubble wrap them (ideally put althe GPU or other electronics into a an antistatic bag first). Then make sure the rest of what is in there is secure and won’t bounce around and move it as-is.

But if this post was all a joke, you just /wooshed me

Edit: And. I just realized this is a bot post of something grabbed from reddit. No OP here to see my comment.

I agree. Grusch could have been misled and bought into lies/misinformation. But at the very least I think HE believes it or wouldn’t be putting his career in jeopardy by reporting to Inspector Generals and testifying to Congress.

The above poster makes it sound like he is likely to be lying about it, which I think is a weak character attack and not arguing in good faith.

Don’t forget, along with the oral and written testimony, Grusch supposedly provided enough evidence to the ICIG to warrant an “urgent and credible” threat.

Unlike pinky promising, there are serious criminal penalties for lying under oath. It’s perjury and counts as a felony and comes with up to 7 years in prison. Not to mention what it would do to your career, especially a career in the military/intelligence.

Thanks gpburdell01, I just spoke with an old SCCM admin colleague and he confirmed the same thing you said.

That makes this much less of a big deal.

The way I read this, it makes it sound like updates need to be imported manually this way forever, from this point on. Is that correct?

Does this cause a large risk of missing or delayed updates for corporate environments using WSUS, or am I misunderstanding something?

All the posts by Yogthos, for some examples. But as Zabadoh helpfully pointed out, because I am from a federated instance I am not seeing all posts in this community. Maybe Yogthos is one of the only users posting in a way that is shared across instances. I don’t yet understand the mechanics of Lemmy enough.

Great info, thanks for the enlightenment Zabadoh!

I heard the theory that this is a close up spiderweb, and the orbs coming out the sides are either dew droplets or an artifact of light/focus. Rewatching it I can certainly see a resemblance, especially the way the orbs seem to bob up and down along an axis.

I haven’t looking into whether this was proven to be taken by 2 different people at different locations at the same time though. If that was confirmed it would certainly eliminate the spiderweb theory.
