Quote:Originally posted by SIGNYM: People who think that this was staged are the people who used to call others "conspiracy theorists". They don't understand that there is NO WAY you can coordinate Trump and the shooter so closely so as to just nick an ear. WTF are these people thinking? They're nuts.

My guess is that somebody influenced their decision to do this, and probably had very little trouble manipulating them into it because they're a stupid people.

Quote:Virgin Galactic and Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos' aerospace company, are human-spaceflight players as well, though they operate closer to the ground: Both companies have launched paying customers on short trips to suborbital space over the past few years. And that's just the crewed side of private spaceflight. SpaceX's Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets currently carry satellites to orbit, as does Firefly Aerospace's Alpha, Rocket Lab's Electron, United Launch Alliance's Vulcan Centaur, Arianespace's Ariane 6 and Vega, and a handful of private Chinese vehicles. The payload side is booming in an even bigger way, thanks to lower launch costs and advances in optics and electronics that have made it possible to build highly capable satellites cheaply, quickly and efficiently. San Francisco-based companies Planet and Capella Space operate their own constellations of Earth-observing satellites, for example, selling the imagery these craft collect (optical in Planet's case, and radar for Capella) to customers for a variety of purposes.
Quote:"We went from single-digit space startups to thousands of space startups, with very little venture capital to billions in venture capital," said Kemmer, who co-founded the pioneering in-space manufacturing company Made In Space back in 2010. "It's already starting. I think it's gonna go exponential."
Quote:This increased activity could make humanity's growing space junk problem even worse over the next quarter-century. Starlink, for example, could balloon to a mind-boggling 42,000 satellites in LEO. And that's just a single megaconstellation; Amazon plans to loft its own big broadband network, called Project Kuiper, and the Chinese company Hongqing Technology has designs on one as well. Space junk is plenty worrisome right now; according to the European Space Agency (ESA), there are about 40,500 objects at least 4 inches (10 centimeters) wide zooming around Earth today, and about 130 million debris pieces between 0.04 inches and 0.4 inches (1 millimeter to 1 cm) in diameter. Even those tiny shards could seriously damage a satellite or other spacecraft, given the tremendous speeds at which space objects travel. For example, the ISS, which orbits at an average altitude of 250 miles (400 kilometers), zips around our planet at about 17,500 mph (28,000 kph).
Quote:China's rise is one of the biggest spaceflight stories of the past 25 years. In 2003, it became the third nation to launch people to orbit, after the Soviet Union and the United States. In 2022, China finished assembling its own space station, called Tiangong, and now regularly launches astronaut crews there for six-month stints. China has also developed and tested anti-satellite technology, much to the consternation of the international space community. And it's increasingly active in satellite development and launch; China sent 67 orbital missions aloft in 2023, which ranked second to the United States' 109. Some of China's spacecraft have gone very far afield; the nation's first Mars mission, Tianwen 1, delivered an orbiter and a lander to the Red Planet in February 2021. And the country's Chang'e moon program has notched a series of successes, including the first-ever soft landing on the moon's far side and the first return of samples to Earth from that mysterious, understudied region. China shows no signs of slowing down over the next 25 years. Indeed, it plans to ramp up in many areas, including lunar exploration. For example, China aims to establish a crewed moon base in the 2030s — something that the U.S. also aims to do via NASA's Artemis program. "China clearly has decided that space capability is important, and they're trying to develop a comprehensive capability," Logsdon told Space.com. "With a command economy, they're pretty good at doing what they say they're going to do. So, I think that they will continue to be a major player," he added. (Logsdon did note, however, that long-term stability is a question mark for the current Chinese government, as it is for all authoritarian regimes.) Some American officials have therefore stressed that the U.S. is engaged in a moon race with China, which is part of a broader competition for supremacy in the final frontier.

It's not personal. It's just war.

Various state assets and enterprises are being grabbed by whichever oligarch has the most power. Hospitals and the army are NOT to report casualties to anyone except the military central command. Potential conscripts are running away, over any border to anywhere. The government has declared a state of high alert, controlling media and travel. Various rightwing militias are gathering in Kiev. There are many rumors that **** will be overthrown.

Quote:Originally posted by 1KIKI: More nuclear energy back then might have made for less global warming today. But there would have been more Chernobyls and Fukushimas, and a lot more nuclear waste we still haven't figured out how to manage. At the time that reactors were being built, there was no good technology to recycle nuclear waste and ensure safe operation. Those reactors were, as I've heard, "pre-deployed nuclear bombs". But the US encouraged a lot of nuclear-reactor-building after WWII, especially of the jury-rigged cheap-as-shit GE Mark V reactors, like at Fukushima.
Quote:Originally posted by AURaptor: Some random no name makes a controversial cartoon here, he's praised for his 'honesty' and what not. Sure, folks might protest, or boycott this or that, but generally nothing comes of it. Now, take the lovely Muslim world. Terrorist saw the heads off of innocent men and women? No protest. Terrorist blow up a night club in Bali ? No protest. Terrorist blow up a wedding reception in Israel ? No protest. 200 school children are murdered, some raped before hand. No protest. Terrorsit hijack 4 planes on 9/11, well, they actually danced inthe streets for that one. ( get the picture ? this list could go on for a while.... ) But! Allah have mercy.... a few infidel Danes crank out a mildly amusing cartoon here and there, and the Muslims are on the war path? Yeah, that makes perfect sense.

Quote:Originally posted by 6IXSTRINGJACK: I'm sure I can pull up stuff I said a year ago or more that I knew 100% that our next president would be a white male republican, for better or for worse. It should be abundantly clear by now that our "system" of democracy in this country is broke...... If you mother fuckers allow Donald Trump to be the white male republican I was talking about..... Then you deserve every single bad thing that's coming to you and your family. I know that 8 years of Bush Jr. made things so bad that Obama seemed like a good idea.... Don't let 8 years of Obama make you believe that Donald Trump should rule America. OMG... Presidential Politics is now in the forum of Reality TV...... America is Dead.

Quote: We all failed Concord. 8 years. Countless hours of blood, sweat and tears. A full team of passionate developers pouring their hearts and souls into this game. And for what? For a bunch of entitled Gamers to call it woke trash and leave it by the wayside? "B-but, it has pronouns!" Good! Can't handle that? I guess you can't handle the English dictionary! Now gaming will forever lose one of its brightest prospects of 2024, all because we're so afraid of the word 'woke' that we'd rather see nothing but soulless cash grabs and doll-like big-breasted anime girls? Well, you got what you wanted. The game is dead. And so too with it a small hope for the future of gaming.
