What surprises me the most is the 1GB option is even viable though I can imagine this will be for IoT users who shove Pi's into things doing embedded stuff where a kernel with a few user space things along with maybe a container are doing all the work.

Well to be honest, I'm doing just fine with my 1 GB Pi3B home server. Sure, another gigabyte wouldn't hurt, but I'm able to run influxd, zigbee2mqtt, telegraf, grafana, homeassistant (containerized), mpd and navidrome on it without issues.

Agreed here. I'll check in online, but I'll only install their app as a last resort. I'm hopeful that boarding passes are still sent as PDF. Then again, I rarely fly Ryanair anyway.

"passengers will no longer be able to download and print a physical paper boarding pass"

Doesn't look like it will be possible. That's a deal breaker for me, I don't need another app spying on me on my phone.

It's like saying "cheddar". Cheese is assumed

There could be more to it; some processed cheese products can't legally be named cheese.

One of the reasons I stopped participating was that as the second half of december was approaching I had less and less free time for solving the puzzles. So to me it is also a welcome change, I will try to finish it again this year.

There should be small pieces of whatever they hit embedded in the body & glass of the aircraft. As long as they are analyzed, the cause of this won't remain a mystery forever.

Unless it was hail.

It was originally called Nodemation, but the creator thought it was too long, so he shortened it to that, pronounced n-eight-n.

What a stupid naming convention, I'm not surprised it's something coming from the javascript ecosystem. Nodemation would have been perfectly fine.

"Viewsheds" of any location can be calculated and matched with photographs using "GeoImageViewer", an application I wrote a couple of years ago. Any feature in the image can be interactively identified in a mapview and vice versa, including the boundary of the viewshed. As has been mentioned in the comments, it is essential to include atmospheric refraction in the calculation, at least for distances above ~100km.
