The Atlas rocket was single stage to orbit.
But yeah, every Gemini and Apollo rocket was staged, as was the space shuttle.

Fuck, you can probably go all the way back to Sumeria with this one.
Makes me want to buy some campaign signs…
“Oust RINO Ted Cruz, vote All-Red for senate this November!”
You don’t even need “power hungry mods” for that to go wrong, you just need mods who don’t care. That’s EXACTLY where Facebook and Twitter are right now. Getting content removed there is basically impossible, I’ve reported people for death threats and was told they never violated community standards.
If the platform isn’t going to moderate itself, the users should be able to.
While it’s true that the downvote often gets abused as a way to stifle otherwise-good discussion, without it it’s hard to deal with discussion that truly should NOT be happening.
There’s a reason election denial is more common and looks more legitimate on Facebook and Twitter. It’s because they don’t have a mechanism for people to nuke that discussion out of the top of the thread.
The US dollar is never worth less nor more than than 1 US Dollar. If you owe a debt in USD, the size of that debt does not change based on the purchasing power of the dollar.
That’s beside the point, because you don’t pay taxes in denominations of “loaves of bread”, you pay them in US dollars. If you pay with an asset that is wont to change its value in US dollars on a whim, that’s a gamble for the government. There’s a reason people don’t regularly pay taxes with stock options.
They also drop a cool shield in Elden Ring.
I still have a sound card, because I have a stupid sound bar that works great except it only takes optical audio input.
alarmist, cost, growth, “India and China,” innovation, and resilience
“China is the worst polluter on the planet and they need to do better”
[China invests heavily into green technologies]
“NO NOT LIKE THAT!”
Because unemployment isn’t really that low. When we talk about “people here now who could use those jobs”, we’re usually talking about people in dead end jobs that could use a career job.
So great, pull them into our elder care system, give them a career level up…now their old jobs are still unfilled. And while we’re super shitty as a country towards entry level service workers, we also as a country really want those jobs to be filled. So we’d need to fill that gap in the employment pool somehow.
It’s the “all your eggs in one basket” problem.
Just in case you misread the title (because I did at first), Namibia is explicitly not looking into other people’s pants now.
Why did it take until 2024? Humans being humans, I guess. Gotta go after some “other”.
“How long has it been since we’ve waltzed?”
“Oh, Gomez…hours.”
Every mushroom is closer to humans than to any plant.
Palm “trees” are a type of grass. That one fucks with me.
The coriolis force affects water in toilets, but about a thousandth as much as the shape of the toilet/the way water enters the bowl.
They crack nuts with their beaks, we had to invent a tool for that job.
