The Middleman: You know how in comic books there’s all kinds of mad scientists and aliens and androids and monsters, and all of them either want to destroy or take over the world?
Wendy: In comic books, sure.
The Middleman: Well it really does work like that.
It’s gonna take a GORP to drag me awaaaay from yoooou!
And it’s nothing that a hundred Gax or more could ever dooooooo!
Coming from an astronomy background, I can tell you that abso-fucking-lutely no one is going to use zettameters instead of kiloparsecs. If I tried to use that in a paper or talk people would think I was insane, and then demand I convert it to kPc.
And they would be right to do so since kPc is an immediately understandable distance (to astronomers). One parsec is roughly the distance between stars. So one kiloparsec tells me something is about 1000 star-distances across. Easy. I have no idea what a zettameter is. I like consistent rules as much as the next guy, but sometimes you have to make accommodations for things that are actually useful instead of the “strictly correct” option that is useful to no one.
I have to use Power BI for my job and it does automatically saves until it’s been open too long and then it stops automatically saving and also won’t let you manually save. Then you have to do a Save As for some reason, close every open PBI file, and reopen them, which takes approximately 3-5 business days.
So he’s gonna just… stay on the plane? Just sit there on a plane he knows isn’t going to go anywhere?
Sounds like the students were the smart ones, they could at least go catch another flight.
This is some real conspiracy theory thinking. This entire article boils down to “I have figured out this secret thing that nobody else, not even the former president or candidates of the Democratic party know about!” It’s all a wild supposition with zero backing evidence, just this one person’s shower thought being passed off as fact.
Please don’t buy into this level of lizard-people nonsense. It’s not helpful for anyone.
No, social media is not just for pictures.
But if someone is using it just for pictures and you try to sell them on a service that isn’t fitting to their use case, that’s on you if they’re not interested.
Know your audience. Offer them alternatives that actually fit their preferences, not yours.
You’re a short motherfucker and nobody likes you!
flute noises BITCH!
Everybody says, “Look how fucking short that guys is.”
And that stops you from forming meaningful relationships.
When you were born everybody thought that you were just a head
But then the doctor said, "WAIT!
This stupid, motherfucking, tiny, short-ass baby Got a tiny, little, itty-bitty body
And I hate it!"
The first season of Andor is some of the best TV I have ever watched. Its incredibly well done.
The second season is still good, just not great. Apparently there were originally supposed to be 5 seasons, and it kind of shows that they compacted it all into two. The highs of season 2 are on par with season 1, but its just not as consistently excellent.
The ending isn’t a grand finale, but it can’t be. The grand finale is Rogue One. I didn’t have a problem with it because I always had RO in mind as the last, extra long episode.
1000% still worth a watch. Easily the best Star Wars content to have come out in the Disney era by a mile.
If all music streaming services were owned by HBO then yeah, I would argue that.
Its a stillsuit, why would you get OUT to pee?!
What? Not it’s not. Where did you get this number?
It’s more like 6.7 AU. Source
In other words somewhere between Jupiter and Saturn in terms of distance to the sun.
Well, a billion kilometers is almost 7 times the mean distance between the earth and the sun. Asteroids pass in that distance all the time. We’re currently closer to Ceres (the dwarf planet) than that and its on the other side of the sun from us.
And how much gasoline are you refining in your backyard on those cloudy days?
Not IT but data analyst. Missed a 2% salary increase for our union members when projecting next year’s budget. $12 million mistake that was only caught once it was too late to fix.
