Yeah, nowadays I think it only affects that game, but older valve titles handed out instant bans on othet titles that used the same engine.

Cheating in one of the following Source games or a Source mod will result in a VAC ban for all games in the list below: Counter-Strike: Source Half-Life 2: Deathmatch Day of Defeat: Source Team Fortress 2

Similarly, cheating in one of the following Gold Source games will result in a VAC ban for all games in the list below:

Counter-Strike Counter-Strike: Condition Zero Ricochet Day of Defeat Team Fortress Classic Half-Life: Deathmatch Deathmatch Classic

Have you tried tweeting at him?

All regulation is written in blood. If there was no regulation, everyone would be cutting corners and we'd get daily titan submersible-like situations.

Do you want a piece of suspension up your ass because a cab driver hit a road bump too hard?

Do you want your legs amputated? Because we can make bumpers go lower and more pointy to improve fuel efficiency.

If manufacturers could, they'd drop the catalytic converter and we'd be back to seeing/breathing cars spewing thick black smoke.

All that and they would still charge you the same as now.

Do you have a computer telling you that speed or are you just making a guess? Because I find it unrealistic to be +30 kph on flat ground with a mountain bike for 30 minutes.

I say this because I have a gravel bike and can only keep +30kph for long periods if I'm on a slight incline and I'm pedaling with a purpose (not full sprint, but you wouldn't see a commuter pedal that hard)

On average people in commuting bikes will most likely be at around 15kph, low 20s on descents.

Only a couple of the final pod nanos had built-in radio, the other iPods all required additional hardware to be plugged in. I found that the hard way with an iPod classic... Even my shitty flip phone had built-in radio with an earpiece connected lol.

[Not OP]

I have not followed space launches in a few years, but in the past they did carry multiple payloads, in what they call "rideshare" launches. Some times, even with confidential cargo where the release of the main mission payload would be 40 minutes later offstream. But I have no clue of the frequency of those.

The wikipedia page indicates some of those launches https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Starlink_and_Starshield_launches

That's the treshold for you to get a 1st degree burn. No, it's not instantaneous at that temperature, but it certainly denotes that it shouldn't get there at all.

Got a chuckle out of the idiosyncrasy of Bottas getting screwed up by both Williams within a couple of laps.

RCS is a carrier-side standard (the sucessor to SMS) that is older than iMessage (circa 2008 iirc).

Some phone manufacturers started to implement it when iMessages was released, but it didn't really become a big thing until Google pushed it to become the standard messaging way in 2017.

The message of this video is that Apple has maliciously held back implementing the standard for years because they'd lose some of the selling points of the iDevices and would also end the narrative that "androids are trash, can't text them properly and look at how pixelated the videos are".
