It seems a tad doubtful you understand much of Statistics 101, since you seemingly fail at basic reading comprehension. Unlike you, this guy does understand it, as can be seen from the fact that he speaks about probabilities, not certainties. Giving you the benefit of the doubt here, perhaps you need a refresher? This is basic survival analysis after all.

This is about the only thing you are vaguely meaningful about. He probably has some kind of model in mind for estimating that 2%. It can be reasonably accurate, inaccurate or wrong. It would be interesting if he shared it. As to the "wild-ass-guess" part, statistics of rare events is a thing, but somewhat past the 101 level. War chances can be (and indeed are) modeled statistically. Additional assumptions are needed for nuclear escalation and those can be reasonable or not, but the whole process is not by default a magical hand-waving as you imply.

I just run Kodi on a Pi 4 and use an 8TB external drive, that acts as a backup to my main media drive.

Nothing new.

The Apollo Guidance Computers used resistance welded joints.

Modern IQ scores are scaled to have a mean of 100 and sd of 15 (see ref 3 on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...). For the whole population the distribution is close enough to symmetric, so when cast to integers the median is also pretty much 100. Thus, the OP. No triangles involved.

They're sounding more human every day.

Spooky.

I just wish there was a way to filter AI content on YouTube.

So much slop.

Lizard people can't smell flowers and actually prefer bugs to people.

The VAB has it's own weather systems inside, with clouds.

Pretty damn big.

Enema.

No smoking is allowed on the Titan beach.

Same here. I had both hips replaced last year and they get very stiff if I sit for more than 30-45 minutes.

I met Burt Ward at a car show in Memphis in the late 70's.

I am but a wee lad of 62, and we didn't get ABC at the time, so I only saw Batman much later, on afternoon reruns.

And in black and white.

My first real memory of the show was the movie they made in '66.

To clarify, OS X was descended from NeXTSTEP, which was built on Mach and BSD.

We're going to need some primitive projectile weapons.
