It's pretty dumb to see people still going after the bluesky team about yesterday's outage over them using AI for coding, when this had all the signs of a DDOS attack.
I also have HUGE concerns about the use of AI in society & software, but shouting at someone for the wrong reason persuades nobody.
We all have days like this

In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime; and the pope, who prosecutes the offenders.

losing contact with the earth for 40 minutes sounds nice
This doesn't appear to include anything about Israel's part in this conflict - will they also stop bombing? I can't imagine peace holds if bombs are still flying
i haven't a crafty bone in my body but someday i want to to make a cross-stitch sampler featuring SRB separation either from the shuttle or the SLS with the caption "you aren't falling apart, you're just undergoing stage separation"
Yaoi hole logic
So no mention of ground forces in spite of the leaks all day on it. Which means it’s more likely.
Still believe all of this is for show, the strikes today and the increase in forces tell the real story.
Back to waiting and watching.

We are a diseased nation, placing bets on why the president is gonna mention during his speech.
(also holy shit that Artemis launch was so fucking cool to watch)
I think this is moreso because we've historically underfunded and yanked NASA's priorities around CONSTANTLY rather than SpaceX being impossibly brilliant, but the direct comparison just feels misleading IMO
The Artemis launch today was huge but this comparison feels wrong. The SLS program started in 2011 (only shortly after SpaceX first launched the Falcon9) and Starship is intended to launch twice as much mass to LEO compared to SLS at a fraction of the cost.
hell yeah

What a beautiful way for a community to physically instantiate a story about itself that will long serve as an inspirational reminder to future generations of “who we are.”
As one Gay, it would be real swell if we didn’t have major candidates for the party stopping just short of calling GOP folks closeted fags, it would be real cool if we didn’t go back to that time when those things were tossed around lightly for chump change imaginary internet points
*sigh* reset the "Democrats use blatant homophobia to try to score political points" counter back to 0 again.
This is just Nostalgia Politics by a different name. I have basically zero interest in anything that politically looks like this.
