The Demise of Net Neutrality Under Trump’s Reign

3 Fcc Seal Repaired
If Trump wins, net neutrality is dead for one of several reasons. A second Trump presidency, whatever its likelihood or one’s opinion on his other policies, would be fatal to net neutrality efforts.

Air resistance limits the maximum speed, so it’s not necessarily going any faster falling from 18,000 feet than 1,000 feet,” Wiens explained. The gravitational force pulls down and there is also an upwards pushing air resistance force. This air resistance increases in magnitude as the phone moves faster through the air.

The Enduring Power of NFT Communities: Weathering Both Love and Hate

Love ’em or hate ’em, NFTs can survive thanks to the communities that drive themNFTs have suffered everything from ridicule and scams to a broad dip in demand due to the crypto winter. Sometimes it almost feels like some of the projects in the space are kept going simply on hopes and dreams. Most people are holding on to their NFTs regardless of their monetary value, according to Yat Siu, co-founder and executive chairman of Animoca Brands.
