Oh, that would be super cool, thanks! I hate to have you do it for me, but my schedule is all kinds of abnormal right now. If you wouldn't mind, that would be great! DM me if you need any info!

Sorry it's taken so long to give it a shot, been a busy couple weeks.

Maybe I'm missing something, but it looks like registration is completely disabled now.

I desperately want SpaceX to have some competition. Competition drives innovation up and prices down.

But at the same time, I kind of want this to be a colossal enough failure that they can't deny that this thing isn't ready.

Counterpoint.

I have a piece of luggage that I love. It is, to within an inch in each dimension, as big as any airline I fly will let on as carry-on (I've seen people carry on larger, but mine is within the stated limits). I can carry it fully packed to the point of nearly bursting, and have done so when one of the wheels was broken.

But it has wheels, so if they're functioning, why shouldn't I use them?

Account creation issue (self.fedia)

When trying to register, I fill out a username, email, and password (copy/pasted from a password manager, so no chance of mistyping). I complete the captcha, check the consent box, click register, and... nothing. Page refreshes, but there's no errors displayed or anything. I've tried resetting my password, but I never get an email for that (I'm assuming because creating my account failed). I've tried different browsers, mobile and desktop, addblockers on and off, and get the same result every time.

Pretty much what the title says. Is there a log file or something I could provide to help diagnose what's happening?

A U.S. government agency tasked with supporting the nation’s nuclear deterrence capability has bought access to a data tool that claims to cover more than 90 percent of the world’s internet traffic, and can in some cases let users trace activity through virtual private networks, according to documents obtained by 404 Media.

I was fortunate enough to spend a very brief day in Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks last summer. I have some better tree pictures, but angles and distance don't give a good perspective on just how huge these trees are.
