It’s a nice story, but it doesn’t seem to be accurate to what happened - not at far as I found with some superficial research [1][2]. I’d be interested in any further reading you have on the subject.

Though what I read, the US were still pretty much shitheads. No big surprises there

No-one’s obligated to read trash. I don’t read other tabloids in case they might have a point.

I admire your willingness to engage and respond to vague BS. Keep on keepin on, dude. (also get some rest)

I feel for the people of Huntsville. It really sounds like they got fucked because their last name. But ultimately, you won’t attract talent from other places in the US if you tell them they’re going to be working in Alabama. This is just the consequence of their politicians and the folks to voted for them.

If say Bernie Sanders also broke the law but in his supporters’ minds was morally right, they wouldn’t abandon him.

To add to this, this literally happened in 1963 and is referenced as one of his biggest selling points.

In a climate thats already saturated with “streaming services” Why even create a “streaming service” if the intention seems to be just “NASA news”. It would in my opinion still be better to partner with one of these larger streaming services in order to push NASA to more people.

Huh, that’s actually a reasonable point of view - none of which could’ve been extrapolated from your original comment. Thanks for clarifying.

The ad-free, no-cost streaming service will include live coverage of future launches, documentaries and new original series that will be exclusively available on the platform.

Protip: it’s better to respond to the article rather than what you think the headline means.

Online services cost a lot of money. People don’t realize how much because VCs and corpos w/ deep pockets have been subsidizing most major services for a long time. Now that the free money period is more-or-less over, these services need to start paying the bills with their users - commence enshittification

I can’t tell if this is a deliberate propaganda campaign or people are actually this clueless and think incumbent presidents regularly compete in primaries.

Honestly I think it’s both. This type of talking point is easy to sell to the people who whine about The Establishment without putting in a modicum of effort to understand why things are that way

This post is also from Sept 2021

1. I didn’t call you conservative

2. I don’t believe as single word you said in your first paragraph

They should do everything they can to stop fighting ASAP including a surrender to the Russian forces if necessary

3. Go fuck yourself tankie.

4. Tens of thousands of taxes from any individual or family does not go towards the war supplies being sent to Ukraine. Unless you’re a multimillionaire - which you are not.

The choices aren’t Democrats or Republicans. It’s Democrat, Republican, or stay at home and not vote. I’m not dumb enough to think people are willing to change positions easily these days. But R’s just got fed some good red meat (Dobbs), which means some of them will become complacent. There isn’t one issue at the moment which motivates their base as good as abortion, which is why they’re flailing around and trying to demonize trans folk

The moronic general public already thinks holding 45 accountable is “political persecution” source. This is with rocksteady evidence. And now you people are talking about charging R-aligned Justices on loose bribe accusations? Just… no. This is how you fire up their base and hand R’s the election with a supermajority.

This is the Congress’ job to fix. Want it fixed? Stop relying on the president and start figuring out how to make Congress actually work again.

I wish to subscribe to your newsletter. I’m guessing a search for open RTMP ports, geolocation, and a few other criteria?

I’m just curious - would you have been in favor of cutting aid to Ukraine? If so, this is the best confirmation of horseshoe theory I’ve ever seen.

The use of lead alloys in telecom cables started in the 1880s and the industry began to phase out placement of new lead-sheathed cables in the 1950s after developing a new type of sheathing," the trade group’s website said. “Some of these cables still provide customer voice and data services, including connecting 911 service, fire alarms, and other central monitoring stations.”

Sounds about right. So they did stop using it when the negative effects of lead started being more well-known. You know what happens when they try to remove that cable in favor of fiber? You get people who whine that the telcos are getting rid of landline copper connections.

Works fine for me too. Used an iPhone/safari

It’s bonkers how much money you can save making food yourself by just planning meals based on what’s on sale this week. People don’t believe me, but chicken thighs/legs go on sale here every 3/4 weeks for 99 cents a pound. Week’s worth of meat for the equivalent price of a McD’s meal.

I thought the free awards thing stopped a while back. I’d be surprised if a lot of people still had them
