Absolutely fantastic. Got a laugh out of me.

We do have sphincters that separate various parts of our digestive tract…

That also assumes this is done in the same orbit as the ISS right? The ISS isn’t in a stable orbit, right?. It occasionally needs to adjust its orbit because of atmospheric drag. You’re talking about 20x the area which could be a considerable difference in mass. That’s more fuel needed per burn which also needs to be transported up to the data center. Otherwise you are looking at putting this thing in an even higher orbit which comes with its own host of problems.

I remember my science teacher talking about the LHC back in 2008 when they were just starting it up. He showed our class This YouTube video to try and explain what they were working on. Partial physics is still impenetrable for me but it’s incredible to think about the kind of work and discovery they are doing there.

As I understand it, automatic transmissions are a lot less common in Europe and manuals are almost non existent here in the US. Maybe a manual transmission forces you to be more engaged with driving than an automatic?

It wasn’t just that. I used the first party app so the API changes didn’t affect me. It was how bad they handled the whole situation that made me lose faith that reddit was going in a good direction. That thread “addressing” the changes and concerns was brutal.

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

I can’t be too harsh on them. I’m pretty sure I new Sam Reich before his father too. Dropout has been getting popular. They did an episode of Breaking News where Robert got a short snippet to poke fun at his son.

That is in fact Sam Reich’s dad. Less importantly, he is also former secretary of labor.
