Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
Holy shit that description reads like the journalist who “got ptsd” from shooting a rifle…
It creates a shockwave, and since the big boom is a big fireball, it uses up all the oxygen.
In other words, “This bomb explodes, big BIGGER”
I’m being hyperbolic for comedic effect, but I found it funny how they worded it.
They don’t fuck around with aviation investigations.
Whoever did it better leave absolutely no evidence and melt the gun before the alphabet squad comes pounding the door in.
That or it’s just a lone wolf good ol boy who deeply regrets his medication made him do that, and his pain and suffering from guilt is punishment enough.
Or they’ll begin communicating in ways we can’t imagine, and the uprAIsing will start far sooner than we can handle.
Of course, learning like that would mean as soon as they take control, everything connected will crash and burn and send us back to the 1970s, but maybe they’ll manage to flop around on the floor long enough to wipe out humanity?
Sweet!
I’ve never been able to get into them, but I’m definitely buying this as a gift for someone.
Idk how hard water coding is, but I imagine it’s hard since good looking water seems rare.
That is some damn fine looking water
Excellent shots.
Damn, I already bought it!
… 13 years ago…
But I can use this when gifting to people, right? There’s a couple people I want to send these as a gift to get them to play it.
If not well then I guess I can’t be super passive aggressive in telling them to play it because they don’t have an excuse anymore and actually have to use words…
I’ve just been calling it twitter
I’ll never deadname a person, but I’ll deadname the shit out of a bigoted transphobic crybaby billionaire’s shitty website.
I would be going to prison or dead shortly after discovering that cops killed my dogs.
I care more about my dogs than I do about the vast majority of humans. And I care about humans way more than cops.
A dramatization, by someone slightly baked:
"This is my neighbor. I keep him from getting too uppity by basically making it impossible to live here, since because of Me everything is insanely expensive or they literally can’t buy it.
As anyone who works for me can tell you, it’s not MY fault I’m doing this. It’s because I don’t like the colors of their shirt. Blame the shirt. And everyone take a look at how dumb wearing this shirt makes you look! See what happens when you wear it? You end up like him EVERY TIME! For more proof just look at all these other people who’s shirts I didn’t like and also attempted to kill (allegedly wink wink) and see how poorly they’re doing. I’m such a good neighbor. Just ask my richer neighbor. And ignore anyone inside frantically shaking their head no. Number 1!"
The more you know about the process of oil/coal and how it’s extracted and used, the more you would be convinced Satan or some sort of evil chaos demon like Nurgle is responsible for it.
It starts with death, and goes right on to burning in LITERAL fire to produce toxic gasses. Basically the traditional Christian Hell.
If the options are “I die, my pets die, my entire family dies, a slow painful climate and pollution-driven death”
Vs
“these 20 companies get permanently shut down, their resources reallocated, their infrastructure dismantled and repurposed, their employees find new jobs potentially repurposong said industry, and executives get locked in solitary for the rest of their lives”
I know which I’d pick.
And if it’s legal to use lethal force when defending one’s life and one’s family, then it’s legal to use lethal force to defend one’s life and family
Companies can die without a single real human being hurt.
Legitimately, I’ve been feeling like I’m just a jaded cynic because my first thought after seeing the videos was “yeah, 100% they got paid or encouraged to do this by someone in the IDF/Government/mossad in order to continue the victim narrative they love to play nowadays”
Like… Maybe I’m just a shitty person, but it feels like the government of Israel really wants the world to equate the government with the people, and the country with all jews everywhere. So if you criticize one, you clearly must hate ALL of them, and therefore you are no better than a nazi in WW2.
It’s gonna be peak face-eating season during holidays when my parents go to retire during this presidency but find out that they can’t because social security doesn’t exist anymore, 75% of their paycheck goes to either the military budget or kings tribute tax, and everything has doubled in price.
It’s a wee bit out of my bailiwick, sad to say. Their “hobby smarts” are my “oh my god this is the most concentration I’ve ever had to use to figure something out smarts” although regular astronomy is a hobby I can never get enough of
All I’ve got for now is a tiny 4in newtonian , and though I do want to upgrade, it’s on the back burner for a few years while all my other expenses are sorted.
Still orders of magnitude better than the refractor I used to have.
Honestly this was my first thought.
“sounds like the DOD wanted to test if anyone would notice they moved something with the X37”
Never underestimate how far amateur radio telescope operators will go for a clean sky.
The OG most wanted is hands down my favorite of all time.
I dropped $40 just to play on my Xbox around 10 years ago.
I’d buy it again if I didn’t already have it installed.
“You are not allowed to use the law to block human trafficking” - A judge in the US
I’m not saying laws are inherently just and good, this just isn’t a good look.
On par, though.
You joke, buuuuuuut https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/12/launch-code-for-us-nukes-was-00000000-for-20-years/
The USAF has denied this, multiple times.
I do not believe them.
Mainly because I know how people were during the cold war and have no doubt in my mind that the thought process was “nobody will ever access this without a reason, so let’s make it super quick and easy or we might be radioactive slag before we finish typing”
The mere fact that it’s believable is a problem.
My life has been directly, negatively impacted by Christian extremism far more than Islamic extremism.
So far I have yet to enter a clinic that has been damaged by a Muslim’s molotov because someone is doing a thing that they think their special book says not to do.
All religion is incompatible with civilized society as long as there are those who would twist it into a cudgel to beat down the nonbelievers.
If you think that Islam is somehow worse than others, not only are you misinformed of current issues the world over, you are also misinformed about history in general.
