"employees"? More like NPCs. We funded both sides (both parties/unipart). The politicians friends and families are making a killing through product and contracts. Maybe we should be focusing our attention in house to root out corruption on both sides no? Everyone here picking sides are just tools to keep the fight going for profit. Should be separation of business and state(much like church and state) as that is where the problems start. People in power gaining more power through control or influence of government.

Google is one of the companies that built the tools that allow propaganda to be made much more efficiently, funny its own employees fell for it hook line and sinker.

In the age when males are beating females in sports by pretending to be females the structural inability to tell the truth, to provide negative feedback is not only hurting female sports. Musk will never land a star ship on the Moon or Mars or anything because he is a sharlatan and he hires former government officials who signed government checks, he is burning through billions of tax money with every flight, all of these star ship flights are pointless. Gaza residents and Hamas operatives not only indistinguishable, they share the same values. People protesting pro terrorism (against Israel) are wrong for the same reasons this male athlete is participating in female sports. USA denying help to Ukraine is literally murdering thousands of Ukrainians and promoting putinism, which is terrorism. USA federal reserve has created the inflation by monetizing government debt and so the economy is dying. The planet is going to become extremely hostile to people because we are still burning coal, oil and gas for power and heat production instead of building more nuclear power plants. There are more and more lies all over.

These Googlers are a sad reflection of the modern approach to reality - our game is ignorance, lies and denial and these protests are just a form of it.

Terrorists are very good at pushing their messages, this is clear today. ruZia, hamas, Iran, north korea even, apparently they are very effective at this entire psyops thing. Israel needs to eliminate the threat, AFAIC this can entirely mean whiping out the entire Gaza population also I hope they take out Iran's rocket and drone manufacturing capabilities, this would help both, Israel and Ukraine.

But their kids tend to grow up to knock over liquor stores.

Remember the dudgeon last year when some of the abortion Taliban states started data tracking residents who left the state to possibly get their desired medical procedures in 'free' New York or California? Now these same states have developed Strange New Respect for tracking it helps them collect their extortionate taxes.

More relevantly, we have already identified a few rocks spalled away from Mars and captured by Earth. Plus how many more over the millennia that we don't know about? If deadly viruses existed on Mars, they are already here.

A 19,000 seat arena in Manhattan that rents for $5/ seat? Uh, no.

Do you really imagine you can rent and staff Madison Square Garden for less than $100,000/night?

It's an improv comedy group - it is a structured D&D themed improv event.

Why do you think Ticketmaster is keeping "100% of the profit!"? It's more likely that Ticketmaster collects a fixed percentage of ticket price plus a fixed per ticket "fee" - I truly believe the organizers of this D&D themed Improv show get the lions share of the ticket price.

The issue isn't Ticketmaster for charging the high ticket prices, it's that people are willing to pay that much for a ticket in the first place. I suspect the event organizers could have chosen to sell the tickets at a fixed price if they wanted to, but would have only lined the scalpers pockets...

Reminder that this happened because NASA wasn't allowed to use foam made with nasty evil CFCs, even for life-critical purposes. The CFC-free foam was a lot more brittle.

It also happened because of other design decisions such as the crew vehicle being placed next to the fuel tank instead of safely above it, each poking holes into the "Swiss cheese model of safety".

They are a movie theater chain, people only come to their theaters to see movies - they can't branch out into another business model, what would they do?

Wanting product to show us not a sign of a weak balance sheet, it is a sign that they depend on the movie studios to get people in their theaters!

I saw Civil War, it was bad.

Imagine if Hollywood made a movie called "Car Chase" and for 90 minutes we watch a car chase in progress, and the movie ends before either the. OP's catch them or they get away...

We're never told why the country is at war, why/how California and Texas join forces, or anything other than one guy is old, another drinks vodka & smokes pot, and it's perfectly normal for a teenaged girl to cross a war zone to become a photojournalist (from Missouri to NYC), or why said teenager is using a film camera, storing photo chemicals in her pants, and can develop said film in broad daylight.

Just stupid.

Thankfully my local theater offers a movie pass card that for $100/year lets me see one movie a day for free...

Remind me again, what was the inflation rate under Trump? When he left office it was 1.4% year-over-year, Biden shot it up to what, 7, 8, 9% before bringing it down to 3.5%? Yippee! Those 9% price increases remain, and prices are just increasing 2x as much as when Trump left office.

Biden has promised to cancel (let expire) Trump's Tax Breaks - and once he does (if re-elected), you'll quickly learn about the benefits you never knew you had from Trump's tax cuts, because the press went on 24x7 about how "the bulk of the cuts went to the rich!" News flash - poor people don't pay taxes, and rich people pay most of the taxes - so obviously, they benefit most from tax cuts...

He saw it, the engineers saw it, they dismissed it, now he thinks "if only I, a journalist, had shared my special insight into something NASA dismissed I could have, single-handedly, lead the nation to dream up a successful rescue mission!"

Is everyone at CNN as so self-centered as Jim Acosta?

A rescue mission WAS impossible.

I can't imagine what the 16 days of the flight would have been like, the crew knowing they were going to die, and the press hammering it and second-guessing NASA until the shuttle exploded...

What could NASA have done? They couldn't prep a shuttle before the astronauts ran out of oxygen - that's just a fantasy born out of ignorance. They were dead the moment that foam fell off the shuttle, there's nothing that could have saved them.
