Nobody snatches defeat from the jaws of victory like a Democrat.

Yeah, that’s about what I’m thinking. A manned mission to Mars could be an interesting project for our kids or grandkids. Anyone talking about it in our lifetimes is just a grifter.
I love the aesthetic. I fully support Art Deco public transportation.
A bus designed by someone who absolutely hates public transportation is pretty funny though. “I wish these seats faced each other so I could sit knee to knee with a stranger.” -Nobody Ever
And there’s so little passenger space, they have a “luggage” compartment in the front. So I suppose I’m just supposed to put my bag there, out of my sight, then hope nobody takes it before I get off?
Can you think of any realistic benefit to a manned mission to Mars?
Bringing back samples would be an amazing feat, and that seems a worthwhile mission. Having a human onboard seems to complicate things far more than any data that would give us would be worth.
My four fathers died to protect my right to travel upon the land in an uninsured non-roadworthy private conveyance! /s
This is what gets me the most about SovCits.
You don’t like the state’s monopoly on violence and don’t feel like you shouldn’t have to follow rules you didn’t agree to? Sure, that makes sense.
But thinking there are magic words that will make the state give up it’s ability to do violence and let you do whatever you want… that’s just crazy.
Granted, I think a human stomach is more difficult to traverse than a frog, and it’s more likely that it came in the back door. I’m just not willing to rule it out.
The signal to noise ratio is so low these days. There’s so much information out there but everyone wants to profit from you before you can get it. Even worse, the people with good information generally can’t buy as big a megaphone as the people who profit from lying to you.
Honestly, I think humans have been more likely to believe an easy lie than a hard truth all along, but it’s easier than ever these days.
I suspect it would be difficult to generate enough data to intentionally change a dataset. There are certainly little holes, like the glue pizza thing, but finding and exploiting them would be difficult and noticing you and blocking you as a data source would be easy.
I literally started watching this yesterday. No idea how I went so long without seeing it.
The miniseries is kind of rough (emotionally), but I guess I wasn’t prepared for >!the destruction of humanity.!<. It’s incredibly good though.
A cab with no driver is just an incredibly expensive gender neutral toilet. I shudder to think what will be done in these if they ever exist.
Didn’t he say full self drive was two years away at least 5 years ago?
With no information, the blurb is almost designed to be infuriating. But remember that they didn’t just drop a wall there. We’re talking about grading and building roads for heavy equipment to get there, probably storage, and who knows what else. My money says that was the grift in the first place: scam Trump voters into paying to turn a worthless piece of land into something usable.
I will not stand idly by for this good natured ribbing of my man Geordi! Harrumph! Harrumph, I say! 😾
Thanks, yeah that is an interesting point. I suppose any sort of experimentation becomes a bit more ethically dicey when the scientist can’t have informed consent from the subject.
This is Tina Fey, most popular for her time on SNL and as Liz Lemon on 30 Rock. I’m lost beyond that though.
The treatments were black-and-white painted stripes, black painted stripes, and no stripes (all-black body surface). Recorded fly-repelling behaviors were head throw, ear beat, leg stamp, skin twitch, and tail flick. Photo images of the right side of each cow were taken using a commercial digital camera after every observation and biting flies on the body and each leg were counted from the photo images. Here we show that the numbers of biting flies on Japanese Black cows painted with black-and-white stripes were significantly lower than those on non-painted cows and cows painted only with black stripes
Black paint was not as effective as black and white paint.
I think most vegans agree that factory farming is abusive. I would be interested to hear a case that the paint itself is abusive.

The study says that zebra markings repels flies.
Yes. It’s largely propagated by idiot gurus who charge other idiots to learn the magic incantations that are supposed to get them around laws.
