In the press conference he’s trying to pin it on DEI. Disgusting behaviour.

Procrastination is going fantastically well.

Gravity doesn’t care what a fundamental force is, or who considers it to be one. It just exists. The labels humans put on such things are entirely arbitrary.

Very 'andy.

Why not all carmakers, forever?

He must have one of those showers that heats the water as it’s used. If there was a hot water tank involved, I might have read the whole thing.

I liked his commentary on those squirrel videos.

Elf on the shelf sees all.

The shiny new thing can be better code to do the same thing.

I have a doubt.

If they actually wanted the SLS, it would have been funded in such a way as to have delivered the big orange rocket by now. It’s not funded in that way. The big orange rocket is not the goal of the SLS or Artemis programs. It’s all about “pork barrel” projects, which are just socialism with extra steps and less benefit. And maybe we get a cool rocket and some excellent science out of it eventually.

The primary reason NASA still exists is as a way to funnel federal tax dollars to the states in a way that doesn’t look too much like socialism. They also spin it as a way to keep rocket engineers skilled up and in-industry in case they’re needed for war.

The stuff that we care about, the science, and the inspiring future generations, is all just a sideshow to the politicians signing the bills.

Tablet doesn’t fit in my pocket.

The missing part was a brand new iPhone or two.

I think MacroDroid has this.

I wonder how Hayao Miyazaki would draw this little guy.

Buy VPN stonks.

Pretty much.

My kit arrived way early so I was worried they’d be a little dull and stale by today, but I needn’t have worried. They all had plenty of clarity and character, and the decafs were basically all the best decaf I’ve tasted. Overall I liked the non-decaf one the best, but it was surprising how little difference there was in quality.

I think I get best results by alternating manual and electric. Like if I use only one or the other for a few days in a row, then my teeth feel cleaner after I switch.
