NASA paid for the promise of a super cheap, high-availability, super heavy lift vehicle that could land on the moon and on Mars.

Rapidly reusable boosters and ships for refueling in orbit is the most important part of that promise, the landing on the moon and Mars part is relatively easy in comparison and has all been demonstrated by NASA themselves in the past.

Of course that’s all just why they pretend to develop such systems, the true reason being American military presence anywhere on the planet within minutes.

Don’t you have to touch the bow above the thing raising the strings to play the violin…?

Someone tracked it until splashdown, so by using the camera angle and landmarks they can pinpoint the exact position it fell in and fish it out, it was pretty close to shore!

In his official statement, president Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho said “The people are right to not trust a science they can’t pronounce”

The “Go to your room and think about what you’ve done” approach is weirdly appropriate here

“We are the default country” lol get outta here!

You’ve been down voted to shit in this whole thread, I wonder who “everyone else” is exactly?

I don’t see USA mentioned anywhere in that comment. I assumed it was a joke about the “overly polite Canadian” stereotype.

YOU assumed it was about the states cause you know the average American is batshit crazy

One way to do it is for each company to develop their own flavor to ship with their laptop, in much the same way phone manufacturers just modify Android and ship it.

As an example, check out System76 and their laptops featuring their Pop!_OS distro, which is very user friendly and stable in my experience.

People are scared. Most employers will prefer hiring friends and relatives and all their families rather than skilled workers. You do what you can, I know many people living paycheck to paycheck. They just can’t afford to revolt.

Thankfully there are unions that help workers organize, but in many sectors you’re discouraged from joining one.

Retaliatory tactics are all too common. Your life is made miserable within the workplace (if you don’t get fired) and then good luck being hired somewhere else in the same field.

You can be fired after a year without a severance package for no reason.

Where I work now we’re short staffed on pretty much every department and yet we won’t offer higher wages to attract new hires, cause then you’d need to raise the wages of the tenured people as well.

Instead, you squeeze the everloving shit out of whoever stays for the same money as the last 5 years while inflation is still soaring.

Greek here.

I and many thousands of people like me have already been working 6 or 7 day weeks for years now. I’ve worked 50 hours this past week (no paid overtime either) and I’ve done 70 hour weeks this year, but not regularly, so I’m actually one of the lucky ones.

The only difference this makes is legalizing it so boss can’t be sued or fined.

But what about Hunter’s laptop? :p

I’ve been in IT for a few years and I’ve changed companies a few times. I just checked my login creds for various systems of 3 previous employers and like half of them still work. Unfortunately it’s a lot more common than any IT department would like to admit

3 short for now

Am currently in IT, can confirm.

Leaded gasoline

This is a measure designed specifically to reduce the amount of things that make an impact

We’re in the days of Intel’s top chips degrading themselves in a matter of weeks due to thermals being simply unmanageable under anything less than a beefy 360mm AIO or custom loop cooling at stock settings

Hello my friends, my name is Amram Eimnan and today we learn how to defeat missiles

Oh man, haven’t heard about Infogrames in a looooooong time.

I remember playing Trophy Hunter 2003 when I was a kid lol it’s been over 20 years since I last heard that name
