Parrots can be extremely intelligent, but are still dinosaurs.

The axis going up is amplitude, the one going right and down is time, and the new axis rightward and upward (left to right on the right-hand chart) is frequency.

The left chart doesn't show the frequency axis. The right one doesn't show time.

The wave shown on the left in the dark cyan color is (shown to be) composed of two different waves of two frequencies shown on the left in gray and in the space between charts as dark cyan. The higher frequency one is lower amplitude.

One possible way to show it. Makes sense to me

That's insane that they apparently replace the subject line. Completely irresponsible.

Should also be labeled as AI regardless. (Or ideally disabled, especially after incidents like this)

Since the page doesn't actually say it (at least not at first glance)

LCARS is the GUI design used in Star Trek, starting around the time of The Next Generation.

The GPS 'time zone' does not account for leap seconds at all and is currently 18 seconds ahead of UTC. The GPS navigation messages from the satellites do however include the current offset.

So do I, but it's close* to 20 years old and has never had driver issues. Back then HP was one of the more supported OEMs for Linux printing.

*Edit: I pulled up the cover and it turns out it will be exactly 20 years old in 3 days.

Yes. 1/2 c is super fast still and gravity that strong would have effects like noticably bending outgoing light.

Neutron stars are right on the verge of becoming black holes and are incredible.

... And truncating messages that were too long?

Reminds me a bit of when Christopher Lee told Peter Jackson how people actually react to being stabbed in the back.

Must have stepped on a pop top after blowing out that flip flop.
