I had a relationship that lasted 3 years. I didn’t think we had no future, but lasting 10 was pretty unlikely. I still learned things that made my future relationships better. While I have some regrets, I’m still overall glad about the relationship.

If you’re getting something of value, it can be worth sticking around. If you’re just having fun and that’s what all parties involved are looking for, that’s fine, too, imo. Ultimately, you have to decide if it’s worth it to you to stick around.

It was referenced in every episode, but one episode was about the people who had one.

It’s a greentext from 2013 apparently. It can be found on reddit, and I’ve seen it here, but I doubt I could find it.

The current solar panel system of the ISS weights about 8 tonnes, the Falcon Heavy can deliver 63 tonnes to LEO. That’s about 715 launches of the Falcon Heavy, assuming space solar panel W/kg hasn’t improved since then, that Starship never becomes commercially viable, and doesn’t include batteries, cooling, or the working components. This still isn’t in the range of feasible for a data center, but could be an option for microgravity industry. The value of a more successful or precise silicon crystal production method, for instance, may make it worthwhile.

Well, I know the difference between alkaline, NiCd, NiMH, and lithium batteries, and that they don’t grow on trees, so at least I have that.

To be fair, all names are made up, and not just for places. But yes, Farmington is a little more simplistic than say Louisiana.

Well, the downside of this not being a 4x game is that sometimes research doesn’t pan out, and you don’t know which ones until after you’re done.

We’ve had 3 major changes in battery chemistry in the last 45 years. Energy density, lifespan, cost, and dangerous materials have all generally improved. We also have 2 new battery technologies in the process of becoming generally commercially available. Also, batteries went from 500 mAh batteries about the size of your smartphone to 3000 mAh as a minor component of that same smartphone, about an order of magnitude in energy density.

No, that’s why we use the same batteries Voltaire did on his frogs.

1300 was the end for me, at least reading at a reasonable pace. I might have squeezed out another century or two, parsing together context and other clues, but that is only through the benefit of knowing the story being told.

As a non-American, I should be unsurprised I’m more familiar with International Morse Code.

Here’s a quote I stumbled across a couple decades ago.

I like paying taxes. With them I buy civilization.

…so most were surprised.

I’m kind of okay with bleeding heart liberal, and also pretty okay with bleeding neck conservative.

I think people at any age need to be given room to grow.

She can own she made a mistake like any fully functioning adult would.

“I feel immense guilt for my role. And even more guilt that things I have said in the past may have caused my son’s sister more pain,” St. Clair wrote, referencing Musk’s daughter Vivian Wilson, who is trans. “Idrk how to make amends for many of these things but I have been trying incredibly hard privately to learn + advocate for those within the trans community that I’ve hurt.”

Isn’t that exactly what she did?

Appeals on acquittal are a thing. It’s hard to say how or if that would be relevant in this situation since it really depends on what triggers the appeal.

Blood donations aren’t always free. Frankly, if everyone else up the chain is going to profit, the guy doing the donating shouldn’t be left out, either. I kind of feel the same way about organ donations, but I acknowledge there are fundamental differences between the two.

Some info on blood donations.

80% of plasma donations worldwide are given in countries where donors are paid.

I absolutely agree that stronger language should have been used.

I wouldn’t classify acknowledging that Maduro was a bad and probably illegally placed leader while saying that international standards have to be maintained is praising it. That’s kind of like reprimanding your neighbors kid for punching an asshole at school. He certainly could be more forcefully about his objections, but there are good reasons he wouldn’t, as well.

And, as always, fuck Poilievre and his response.
