So in this image we have stars smaller than the moon and a cloud of particles also much smaller than our own sun making multiple stars? I'm confused.

YouTube recommended has been great for me. Showing me relevant channels and videos to my interests -- woodworking, chemistry, engineering. Hasn't tried to sneak in any annoying viral videos, just good content I want to watch. I hope

Import/Export is a different beast than right to repair. He already has his hands full, and should focus on what he knows. Don't confuse your userbase and potentially damage your main goal.

Nice trivia. One thing I don't understand, is they say the crew didn't know about the chestburster, but they had to have John setup under the table, with a fake torso. In the setup pic you can see he doesn't even have legs.

This happened to me this morning. I even called Cox, since they were out just last week doing scheduled maintenance and the internet went down a few times. Cox said the line looks fine (and tried to sell me their cable modem). I logged in

I asked it a letter at a time.. 1st letter, 2nd, etc. And it gave me part of the real word but messed up. Then I asked for reverse and I figured it out from there. Some typo weirdness.

Datadog prices are out of this world. I assumed their front facing prices were for the lone dev, so when I reached out as a company looking to integrate multiple of their products I expected a deal, and got very little compromise. I told

Competition isn't enough for this issue, it needs to be written into law. And tractors/farm equipment isn't the only thing we need right to repair on. So count this as a small victory towards a much larger goal.

First time I tried it, I didn't know what I was doing, and smoked half a joint. I figured it was like cigarettes - you're supposed to smoke the whole thing, but I had some presence of mind to just try half. That night I was basic

Sounds like basic capitalism to me. You have a captive audience, charge them until they refuse the price. Same thing happens at stadiums, although not quite as bad as airports, but the prices - especially for the quality - are pretty ridic

Lots of mentions of studies by various groups, but the first one that came to mind to me was NASA or other space agencies. If we want to travel to Mars, and beyond, how will isolation affect us? Granted, you may have crewmates on a space

Enjoying the M2 16" as well. I thought I'd hate the notch, but I don't really notice it most of the time because that's where the top toolbar thing is. The keyboard feels great. The past 2 (work) laptops I had to turn

It's one of the least efficient EVs out there. I have an Audi E-tron, which is also one of the worst. I still save compared to gas, but I was hoping to save a lot more. To compare, the Model3 is twice as efficient as the Rivian.

New reddit makes me feel flustered and annoyed. So much crap on the screen, and the content is just 1 thing at a time. With old reddit I can quickly scan titles for what I want to look at. Maybe you can fiddle with new reddit UI, I haven

When I lived in the south there were black widows everywhere, some browns. Now in CA, it's mostly browns. They both have extremely predictable hiding spots, so I've never really feared them. It's not like they jump out at y

That's definitely the case for my family. Every time we gain some extra money, it disappears. 5 years later however, our house has gained a ton of value, and we can upgrade to a better house with the same mortgage. And in my experie

Odd, the article so confidently says it's an accident over and over, but other reports [1] [2] say she touched it on purpose. Is the owner of the gallery district manager here simply lying for insurance purposes? [1] https://

I'm in the process of reading the 6 books. Once I got spoiled and saw what the God Emperor was, I just had to know how it came to be. My first attempt at reading the series about 20 years ago died on book 3, which I never finished. N
