We're going to Mars. This is unstoppable money now. They raised three years of NASA budget in one day, becoming worth more as a company than the accumulated total budget of NASA since inception, adjusted for inflation.
Hmm. Just from my own bullshit experience, if you find yourself in an empty room, you probably look to the right and then, naturally, you're moving counterclockwise.
Also, frist psot. Been a long time since the last one..
Super El Niño, AMOC shutting down. Mauna Loa CO2 shutting down reporting 432 PPM before we shut them up. The mighty Colorado river died. We drank it up. India has been over 95F for months, and parts are becoming uninhabitable reaching 114F.
Dinosaurs had 165 million years. Sea turtles 260 million. Genus Homo, 2 million. Sentience may be self defeating, which solves the Fermi Paradox.
If they had some super powerful analysis and synthesis computer that solves problems for them, would it be able to sort this out?
It makes sense that a long-lived species would take longer to develop
So then what is the point of Yoda being immensely old? Is he basically 63 in Yoda years?
I really wish that Git had stayed as a stand-alone free service for Linux developers.
It did. The authoritative upstream repository for the Linux kernel is hosted at kernel.org, not GitHub.
How can this be seen as a victory?
The "victory" is literally "pwning the libs." The thought process is, "Anything that denies them something that they want makes them weaker and us stronger." The base rallies and cheers, and meanwhile Trump and his cronies go back to extracting ungodly amounts of wealth from the entire world's resources.
If they leave them there, the next administration might be able to switch them back on and start gathering woke climate science data again.
Kinda unlikely. If you leave anything sitting under the ocean, it's going to experience significant wear and tear. If there's no budget even to monitor the status of the monitors, let alone conduct routine maintenance, they're likely to be as good as junk by the time they're switched back on.
Literally hundreds of scientific papers have been published using data from the OOI
Not to mention that the data is also used in industry, particularly in farming and fishing, where it is used to predict climate-related events. And this aren't just long-term events we're talking about. "Where are the fish likely to be this year" is a question this data can help answer.
What? I have one. It's hooked up (through an adapter) to the VoIP port on my fiber router. It rings and everything.

Grogu is already 50 years old so that might explain his powers.
Yeah? So how come he never speaks and has the language comprehension of a 3-year-old?
Many people are unenthusiastic about their work.
