You don't need to transition unless you want a microgravity lab or possibly docking another spacecraft. Stopping is also an option, though debris and even furniture might float around. Picture a long truss connecting an office building

I got data loss when OLPC's Sugar desktop did this. I put the SD card into the machine to undelete something, and Sugar promptly overwrote my data by adding some useless nonsense desktop file. For all these sorts of things, I really tr

I happen to know an amazing developer who mostly uses notepad. Sometimes he will start Visual Studio for other reasons, and then might edit files that way, but typically he edits with notepad. Notepad is fast and simple.

I saw one in a parade. It left tread prints, but the road still worked. Even if the road didn't work, repaving isn't that big of a deal. It's a small price to pay for seeing a massive tank roll down the street.

Former DNC chairwoman Donna Brazile works for Fox now. It would seem the revolving door is rather different from what you are seeing. She went from CNN to the DNC by being Hillary Clinton's choice to run the DNC, right after the scanda

You're thinking of the old Fox, and possibly predicting a future Fox. Former DNC chairwoman Donna Brazile works for Fox now. Politically, Fox does not stay put. To maximize market share, they always want to be just barely to the right

It's an average of less than 1 per day in a very busy subreddit. That is an impossible standard to meet. It would be trivial for a false flag operation to post that often, and there clearly is a motive for that. Meanwhile, as rhegart c

It's a real physical item. Pepsi has lots of money. It is thus reasonable to expect that Pepsi would provide one. It might be different if Pepsi had offered a flying unicorn, a human slave, psychic powers, a teleporter, a time machine,
