It's simple, really. Just put the payload on another track and accelerate it in the opposite direction. Then mount said track to the launch vehicle and fire the whole system from the stationary accelerator.
This would, of course, result in the payload just falling off at the end of the track while the launch vehicle fucks off into the sun, which is why you have to employ a little trickery...
Funny, that's actually the argument most often heard in Germany when people want to bring back mandatory military/civil service. Yes, it's slavery, but it'll teach you stuff!
Some examples of scenarios where users depend on client trust include:
Users like visiting websites that are expensive to create and maintain, but they often want or need to do it without paying directly. These websites fund themselves with ads, but the advertisers can only afford to pay for humans to see the ads, rather than robots. This creates a need for human users to prove to websites that they're human, sometimes through tasks like challenges or logins.
Users want to know they are interacting with real people on social websites but bad actors often want to promote posts with fake engagement (for example, to promote products, or make a news story seem more important). Websites can only show users what content is popular with real people if websites are able to know the difference between a trusted and untrusted environment.
Users playing a game on a website want to know whether other players are using software that enforces the game's rules.
Users sometimes get tricked into installing malicious software that imitates software like their banking apps, to steal from those users. The bank's internet interface could protect those users if it could establish that the requests it's getting actually come from the bank's or other trustworthy software.
Combine them and you have an anti-adblocking feature.

How does this affect browser modifications and extensions?
Web Environment Integrity attests the legitimacy of the underlying hardware and software stack, it does not restrict the indicated application’s functionality: E.g. if the browser allows extensions, the user may use extensions; if a browser is modified, the modified browser can still request Web Environment Integrity attestation.
Which is a whole lot of nothing. Of course you can still install extensions and sure, it can still request attestation, but that doesn't mean it will get it. But this isn't even important because I'm sure attestation for being a human (case 1) will fail anyway if the ads get blocked.
But even assuming that it doesn't interfere with ad blockers, this is still going to allow some shitty website to query code running on your device that isn't under your control to snitch on you. It's fundamentally stupid and wrong to trust any client data about the client, using extra processors and features is a garbage, intrusive workaround that still doesn't even actually work reliably from the shitty developers/website owner's point of view. Also see: Android custom ROMs and the lengths they successfully go to in order to run banking apps.
The books you are talking about are mass produced commodity items, right? If you don't want them anymore and don't know anyone else who does just treat them like any other print product and toss 'em out. They weren't painstakingly copied by monks, the knowledge inside will not be lost, just being a book doesn't make them special.
Signed, someone who had to deal with a slew of outdated guidebooks, encyclopedias, cookbooks, reader's digest issues, never-read novels and whatever else from a deceased relative because they just couldn't bring themselves to put them in the recycling bin.
If you have one nearby then maybe, but I bet you even they don't want that slightly water damaged, smelly copy of some cheapo 80s encyclopedia.
Around here it's also relatively common to sell old books by weight/volume, either on flea markets or classifieds/Ebay. But sometimes it literally isn't worth the effort.
While I understand the lack of proper open source alternatives for some software like AutoCAD and After Effects, it always felt weird that the best IDEs/Text Editors are made by big corporations, because you know, these are the tools programmers use....
Yes, I'd rather fuck around with custom ROMs than endure the user-hostile crapware that most vendors bundle. I'd also rather try to make an app work despite safety net or whatever not passing out of the box than not have any defenses against the dumb bullshit software vendors put in their apps. I'd rather go back to a feature phone than live with a walled garden full of spyware and ads.
Democratic Gov. Janet Mills signed a bill into law Wednesday that allows abortions at any time if deemed medically necessary by a doctor, making the law one of the nation's least restrictive. The previous law banned abortions after a fetus becomes viable outside the womb, at roughly 24 weeks, but allowed an exception if the patient’s life is at risk.
I couldn't find a source on this so I gotta ask, would abortion in cases like that just mean that the pregnancy is terminated early, with the child being handled the same way as others who are born prematurely are, if at all possible? In other words, do these protesters have a point at all?
Large numbers of protesters were not in the State House on Wednesday as they were during the legislative debate. Instead, a lone demonstrator stood outside the governor's cabinet room holding a sign that called the law a “death sentence" for unborn babies.
