I had to refresh my memory about the hybrid use of AC and DC current in telephone networks.
The Alternating Current signals could be used over longer distances and were effective at making the bells ring, moving the clapper back and forth. This back-and-forth is exactly what makes AC so deadly in the body, should it cross through your cardiac muscles, for example, and set the muscles twitching at 50 or 60 times per second.
They appear to be distinguished externally by the vehicle model and new sensor design. Currently, the production fleet in Phoenix and elsewhere consists of the Jaguar I-PACE.
The sixth generation would have been in testing phases -- closed tracks, simulations, and supervised driving. Now they're deploying on the Waymo Ojai (Zeekr) and Hyundai's IONIQ 5.
This is way more fun than I ever had in my Corolla.
From the company who got the world "go-goo"ing like infants, I, for one, can't wait to say "O HAI" to my new ride, or "Isn't it IONIQ, don't you think?"
A disc jockey is an entertainer who spins records or compact discs to play music.
A discothèque is a nightclub where disc jockeys can perform live, spinning to create a party atmosphere for socializing and dancing.
In the United States, the word was quickly shortened to "disco" and became closely associated with the mirror ball on the ceiling and the eponymous style of music and dancing.
So when new styles of music overtook the nightclubs, they shed the "disco" appellation as well. It seems to still enjoy a lot of use in European cities, though.
Traditional malware relies on delivery of “payload” with a custom program and data, and/or establishing persistence by installing files to local storage.
These behaviors generate distinctive evidence of compromise in-progress, active, and after the fact, so your AV software or forensics team can identify it.
“Living off the Land” means minimizing or eliminating the payloads and the system modifications, and leveraging anything and everything that is found already existing in the system.
Obviously while presenting extra logistical challenges, LOL can be stealthier and easier to deploy on your target systems.
During an opening scene in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Dr. Jones is surrounded by hostile Russian soldiers, but he immediately observes that Dr. Irina Spalko [Cate Blanchett] "isn't from around here" and he goes on to describe her unique accent, correctly naming her origin as Eastern Ukrain[ian Soviet Socialist Republic].
Ireland currently has a population of approximately 5,501,000 people. There is great news: Bono and the rest of his band have agreed to provide subsidies for the 5,499,000 citizens who aren't receiving the BIA funds, and they'll brand this supplemental program as U2BI.
The website will be established shortly as https://ww2.u2bi.ie:212/ as soon as the registrars can correct the typos.
Okay, my fault for skipping a lot of stuff in the middle, but a question began to burn in my mind. They have determined the full inscription, calculated the Olmec date, and correlated it to our Gregorian reckoning. The end of the article says:
So, while 32 BC seemed awfully early for the Olmecs to carve this stone, there’s no way they could have done it later. (Or earlier, for that matter.)
But I am not sure if this resolves the burning question: what makes everyone believe that the inscription corresponded to the current date? Certainly, that is a common custom when erecting a monument, but what if Olmec logic said "let us commemorate this auspicious event that occurred 300 years ago!" or "Let us anticipate the far future in 5,000 years from now!" for example.
Or they had a detailed record of all eclipses going back several hundred years. I guess it would make sense that this was the record but it's also plausible they had some ritual reason to refer to a date of an eclipse when building this thing.
a continuous chain of memories is enough to consider it the same culture. They did not imply that the date was the carving date, but that the culture extended as far back as that date.
Now that piques my interest. Could you be more specific?
Using Stellarium, set the location to Tres Zapotes, but not knowing how far off the calendar's reckoning would be, the closest I have come is a partial solar eclipse, after 9pm on September 1, -23.
Stellarium literally indicates a "Year 0" so BC years could be off-by-one, or off-by-Julian-and-equinox-precession, I just have no idea.
Wikipedia doesn't list any [Lunar/Solar] that are anywhere near 32 BC.
“Il a été proposé qu’elle puisse commémorer une éclipse lunaire qui a précédé une éclipse solaire de deux semaines.”
>”It was proposed that it could commemorate a lunar eclipse preceding a solar eclipse by two weeks”
I was very lazy in my search, so I didn’t check anything about this page.
As I understand it, the Olmecs were around maybe 1500BC to 300BC or so at the outside. Yet the article says "32 BC seemed awfully early for the Olmecs to carve this stone". WTF? Early? They'd been mostly gone for hundreds of years by that point.
If anything, assuming they carved it earlier and included the data of the eclipse as a forecast make as much or more sense. But the article is full of points like this, that seem superficially reasonable unless you look at them a little more closely.
In case anyone couldn't be bothered to Wiki, a baktun is 394.26 tropical years (aka years!). So 'a few bactuns back' might sound like a jiffy but could in fact be a millennium or more!
