“Mr. Simpson, this is the most blatant case of false advertising since my suit against the film 'The Neverending Story'.”

Ok so I had to Google half that sentence, so here I am a day later.

I’ve done something similar…
“What are you watching?”
“An old animated movie from my childhood. Just started, want to watch?”
“Sure, what’s it called?”
“The Secret of NIMH”

I still can’t get them to watch The Last Unicorn.

Holy shit.

More like that’s when the spirits are getting it on. Rebirth of the world, that kind of thing. Source: married into Diné.

Is someone feeling neglected?

You can wishlist it on Steam! The developer says he has been playtesting it on the Deck, too.

Deorbit burn. It will still do that, it’s using aerobraking to lower its apogee; same thing Mars missions (such as MRO) have done.

Aerobraking isn’t particularly novel, it’s just the first time the X-37 program is going to try it.

I don’t know about apps, but they ultimately all get it from the National Weather Service. Since it’s a government service, the website is totally free of ads and other garbage. Just use that. Weather.gov. You can search for your home, and since it uses absolute URLs, you can then bookmark the results page and just go straight to that every time.

Project 2025 wants to disband NOAA and give its functions to Accuweather instead, directing taxpayer funding to a private company while also locking all weather data behind a paywall, so they get paid twice to provide the same info NOAA currently provides with a single payment (taxpayer funding). The Accuweather founder, Joel Myers, and his brother, Billy Lee Myers (unsuccessfully nominated by Trump to be the head of NOAA), are major Republican donors, but I’m sure that is completely coincidental.

Hell yeah. Never getting rid of my paid-for Volt. That and my e-bike keep me moving.

This isn’t…c’mon, that can’t be real. Can it?

I guess it really got under Steve Hoffman’s skin.

Ok, hear me out. The hull number is for the USS Enterprise (CVN-65), which was deactivated in 2012. After that, instead of decommissioning, Elon Musk decides he needs a private military and hires Erik Prince to set it up. He buys the still-intact Enterprise, gets it modified the way he wants it, and sends it to Brazil to force X/Twitter back into service there. Full of Blackwater/Xe mercenaries, meth and coke are distributed to all personnel as daily rations. Fueled by the success of their first mission (and lots of drugs and alcohol), the bastard craft took to the high seas. It resembled a mobile party now, but a heavily-armed party. They looted, they raided, they held whole cities to ransom for fresh supplies of cheese, crackers, guacamole, spare ribs and wine and spirits that now get piped aboard from floating tankers.

Well, that leaves Willie, last of The Highwaymen.

Just happened across this in my All feed, and it’s timely. 7 days for me!

Why “Be Better” when you can “be BEST”? Being better is for quitters!

And that was in her graduate thesis! Also, she used Annie Jump Cannon’s stellar classification work to develop her theory.
