They’re not. The ship has 1 bad thruster, but need like a dozen to fail to make re-entry impossible. They could leave right now and everything would be just fine.
The thing is the module that’s malfunctioning doesn’t survive re-entry, so the only time to investigate the problem is before they head back.
Stein isn’t in the ballot in enough states to win the electoral college. She literally cannot win.
You might as well vote for Barney the dinosaur for all the good it will do.
A vote for a candidate who cannot win is wasted.
The only person older than Trump to ever run in the general election is Biden.
Carriers will offer better deals on the phones though if you’re planning to stick with them.
I’m looking at a $1000 phone that ATT will give me for 2.99/month for 2 years. That’s over 85% off on the phone. The trick is they give it to you by actually charging like $42/month, but then giving a $39 credit every bill for 2 years, so you have to pay the difference on the $1,000 phone if you jump carriers.
But since they’re the only carrier that works at my office, and this is gonna be a work phone (my company pays me a monthly stipend for it), I can live with that.
Worse than that. You bought software licenses specific to that Wii, not to an online account. If it died, you lost all your purchases.
That’s also most of what’s on Amazon these days.
Doom 2016 was just about perfect. It blended old-shool FPS fundamentals with modern aiming, collectibles, etc.
We should be able to charge them for ad time. You want to paint an advertisement on my car you have to pay me. Why should it be any different when you want to put ads on my work computer screen when I’m working with clients?
And it’s gotten much worse since then. The $185 billion number listed as the highest wealth would be around number 5 now, with Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, and Arnault all having more than that now I think.
My favorite statistic household net worth (includes cars, houses, retirement, everything).
Median from 2022 was 192,000 Mean from 2022 was 1,063,000
The ultra-rich are such incredible outliers that the mean is more than 5x the median.
The 10 wealthiest people in 2024 control almost 1.7 trillion dollars. That’s more than the GDP of the pooreat 100 countries combined.
I like the bleep-boo sounds of the command prompt scrolling by on computers.
“.9…” is repeating, but rational. So it’s actually “1” . Let’s do the math.
.9… / 3 = .3…
.3… = 1/3
1/3 x 3 = 3/3
.9… = 3/3
3/3 = 1
.9… = 1
Still not convinced? We’ll use algebra instead of fractions.
0.9… = x
10x = 9.9…
10x - 0.9… = 9
9x = 9
x = 1
But the “…” matters.
The sound is higher-quality than the files we’re getting from the streams, so it’s fine.
For me it’s been “I see you bought this specific laser engraver. Would you be interested in buying that exact model?”
No. I already bought it, and it’s not a consumable. If I decided I needed a new laser a week into ownership, it wouldn’t be because I was thrilled with that exact model.
Hidden manual releases that still require you to push the door through the windows trim. FFS people have already died because of this shit. Why the hell hasn’t there been a mandatory recall on all Teslas over this?
Amen.
Felons can try to make amends. Troy just makes Jager bombs at the office and passes at the 19yo receptionist.
I can’t be racist because that would be hurtful and wrong.
Yes. But at the same time I’m actually okay with ads for products that are legitimately good and are relevant to me, so long as I know they’re an advertisement.
Products need marketing. It’s reality. I’d rather get my marketing in the form of a recommendation or review from a trusted source than a random video shoved down my throat.
A easy example of a good source for me is MKBHD. He gets free stuff and sponsorships, but is selective regarding what he’ll accept sponsorships from, is very clear when a segment is sponsored, and will absolutely say a product is bad or overpriced even if he got it for free.
My issue with Verizon 5g is that it is worse than their old Edge service.
5g on my signal bar essentially means “doesn’t work.” It wasn’t an issue when I could turn off the 5g radio, but Samsung pushed an update that removed that option.
