Yeah, she ruined Magic the same way the terrorists in Iraq and Syria ruined the name of Archer’s spy organization, ISIS. (Also the name of Catwoman’s favorite cat, and an ancient Egyptian goddess.)

But Trump clearly said, “Now is the time for peace.” No takesies-backsies, Iran! /s
Probably around (0, 0.5)
Won’t stop the red hats from buying it out of loyalty to the Emperor.
God do we need to move away from first past the post so when we get into these situations, a new party can be formed without fear of splitting the vote and handing the election to the other end of the spectrum.
Russia doesn’t get to dictate who other sovereign nations choose to associate with.
Sea otters exhibit this behavior. They keep their favorite rock in their pouches and use them to crack open shellfish.
Unfortunately, the contingency plan is going to be “Give more money to Boeing and Lockheed Martin,” and we saw how that went with Starliner.
The problem is SpaceX has the best product around, and it’s not even close. Falcon 9 launches are so much cheaper than anything that ULA has offered that it’s not even funny. They weren’t even looking in to reusable boosters until SpaceX made it a standard practice in their system. For station cargo flights, Cygnus is an option, but it can’t bring anything back the way Cargo Dragon can. For manned missions, the only other option would be Boeing Starliner, and I don’t think anyone else is ready to call that operational.
Yes, SpaceX has a near monopoly at this point, but for once I don’t think it’s from any underhanded business practices, it’s just they were willing to innovate when the legacy space carriers were coasting along on government contracts. Once NASA, the DOD, the intelligence agencies deemed the Falcon as reliable, the only reasons ULA stayed in business was the government’s desire for a second launch provider for contingencies, and the occasion payload that was too big for Falcon.
Yeah, unfortunately, there’s no one in the line of succession I particularly like. At least RFK is #12 and Linda McMahon is #16, both pretty far down.
The Justices may be doing their own political calculus. Trump’s gone in four years, their job is for life, so long as they don’t dilute the role of the judiciary to the point they no longer matter.
I’m assuming you already tried to get the work application to run on Linux via Wine or Proton? I know Valve has been putting a lot of R&D effort into Proton for their Steam Deck, trying to improve compatibility.
Most significant digits first. You write the thousands place before the hundreds, you write the month before the day. Of course, the whole argument is blow away when you write the year at the end instead of the beginning. (ISO YYYY-MM-DD dates for the win.)
It’s only in the last 150 years that information could travel any faster than a currier ship or rider. Before the telegraph and the radio, information traveled at roughly the same speed as goods or soldiers.
Thanks, now I’m actually hoping Pfizer’s lobbying team is able to sway government policy.
The Ankh-Morpork League of Temperance* has been petitioning the Patrician for months trying to get a vampire onto the City Watch. The Campaign for Equal Heights and the Fresh Start Club have already gotten dwarves and zombies onto the force, so it’s only a matter of time.
* They’ve sworn off the red sticky stuff, oh deary me, yes.
The procedure when doing a carrier landing is to go to full throttle as you touch down. It may seem counterintuitive, but the idea is if you miss all the wires, you have enough thrust to get back into the air to go around and try again. If you catch a wire, they’re designed to stop the plane at full power. I’m curious what went wrong here to leave the plane short of the necessary power to get airborne again.
I’m thinking specifically of People magazine. With paper magazines, the time to print and distribute come into play. If they had waited until after, the article wouldn’t have hit store shelves until late mid February, after it was most relevant.
Replied to the wrong person, it was supposed to be in reply to the person that was complaining that MTG use to stand for Magic: The Gathering for 20 years before the rise of the representative from Georgia.
