I highly don’t recommend the 2020 film by Pixar: Soul. Are you excited to get to know all about an aspiring jazz pianist who is trying to make it in nyc?! Well tough luck, that’s not what this film is about. Instead, after getting hooked on

This reminds me… what ever happened to Microsoft’s Surface Neo? This is a very similar idea, especially with the external keyboard

Yeah, there are faint mentions of moon colonization from Musk, but more often than not he talks about Mars. I do agree more and more that Musk is a grifter (look no further than Twitter), but SpaceX seems to be one of his ventures that’s no

I’ll give that video a watch, thanks for the rec. Yeah, getting to Mars as a human presents a whole load of problems, let alone living on Mars. Elon loves the self deprecating talking point of saying how terrible the journey will be, but I

I’m in my late 20’s, though that does sound like a nice situation to be in if you’re a single 30-40 something year old. Being in my mid/late thirties and single kind of scares me (mainly because most of my friends/peers will likel
