Wordsmith. Questions everything. Lives in a bubble where we all get along and care about each other. Don't trust anyone over thirty.* * I remember that from the 1960's. Seems like good advice today.

Wish I could have seen the look on Xi's face when he heard this. The important followup question is: did Xi say "yes, we'll have one of everything!" ClownFace isn't interested in preserving the USA, he's put it all up for sale. Everything, including its citizens.

The FDA won’t tell Americans where their generic drugs are made, so ProPublica did it instead. Use information from your prescription label to locate the factory and see if the plant has a history of inspection violations.

Okay @developers.google.com since you've made it abundantly clear you're catering to delusional old men *and* have the ability to toggle names based on location, cater to me: I want a preference switch in Settings that lets me use "Gulf of Mexico" and "Lake Ontario" like the rest of the world.

We're witnessing the culminating rot of shareholder capitalism in real time. Some of the most powerful corporations in America have sided with an authoritarian regime in order to protect their short term profits — the fundamental rights of everyone else be damned. Remember this.

The Washington Post "Senate hopeful Talarico touts his faith. Texas Republicans call it blasphemy." When pseudoChristians supporting paedos in their party call you blasphemous, you must be an okay guy. The truth hurts when you have no leg to stand on, GOP. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

"NBC News Trump 'exasperated' on Iran as top officials can't agree on strategy, sources say" When you fire all the top brass with the kahunas to stand up and tell the CIC he's wrong, you can't expect the remaining folks to do the right thing and tell Dumpy to withdraw. So no, they can't agree.

"SpaceX will own all intra-solar transport and logistics for the next century."
I don't think most "hard tech investors" even have the right categories. This is the real game.
Who gets own space logistics? Who gets to own the weather? Who gets to own energy?

It Starship genuinely nails 100% reuse with zero refurbishment between flights, Space will be able to send anything up under 100 tons for the cost of fuel and license. Unless another small sat launcher can do full reuse without refurbishment, and therefore need less fuel than Space for a small payload, they won't be able to compete.
The first time a Falcon 9 launched the second time, everyone else should've thrown every penny they had at reusability and scrapped every single other non-reusable rocket that was under development. But they didn't, because they couldn't accept the writing that was on the wall:
SpaceX could stop building rockets entirely after they finish Mk1, Mk2, and a pair of Super Heavy boosters, then sit back and print money for the next decade while putting everyone else out of business. But they won't. They're going to keep leapfrogging themselves, and it's pretty reasonable to extrapolate that unless Blue Origin or China pull rabbits out of their respective hats, Space will own all intra-solar transport and logistics for the next century.

Both totally unnecessary and extremely funny that the Guardian has an interactive graphic for you to change the color of the US flag's blue to the color of the Reflecting Pool from 8 to 19 June and counting
Screenshot of the article's graphic, showing color swatches derived from the Earthcam archive, illustration the color of the reflecting pool calibrated against satellite imagery, from 8 June to 19 June 2026. I chose yesterday, 19 June, so it rendered the US American flag with a green hue instead of blue.

MIT researchers think they've worked out exactly how Russia's Burevestnik nuclear-powered missile flies. "It's almost certainly a terrible idea," one analyst said. "But it's not an impossible idea."
