You mean like the Dutch who sent a convicted pedophile to the Olympics?

Edit: sorry getting a 12 year old drunk and raping her doesn’t make you a pedo according to The Dutch Olympic committee

$1000/month? Really?

Google Docs (and their online office programs) aren’t even the only valid option anymore. I mean even Office is only $6/month if you only want the web version, or $12.50/month if you want desktop apps.

someone will scrap NASAs current human space flight plans to promote their own plan, which in itself will be scrapped when a new administration comes in

Kinda like how each administration switches if we are going to Mars or the Moon next based purely on what the previous guy said haha

I “technically” have busses near my house. The bus stop is on the corner and the grocery store is about 2 miles away. No brainer right?

Nope. Because the bus only comes every 45 minutes (according to the schedule, good luck if you trust it) and it takes 2.5hrs to go from my stop to the one next to the grocery store.

Or I can just walk the 25 mins or whatever it takes me to walk there.

I have a mouse like that but it says Cisco and it’s the blue and grey that the Netgear switches used to be for some reason.

But I got it for free in an industry (IT) event. Same with the 1/3 of my closet that is just branded T-shirts haha

“well, someone’s dream” is something I like to tack on the end haha

I was a pretty high level athlete (in swimming so not a pro, but did compete at an international level) and I can back this up too.

“Natural Talent” is a thing. But that only really applies to the very very top end of the spectrum. Like professional athletes absolutely have genetic advantages over a normal human. But you can get 98% of the way there through just pure determination, grit, and practice.

I imagine it’s not quite the same for music, but unless you’re trying to become a billboard level musician or someone who travels around putting on shows, you can absolutely become “good enough” just from (in this case) 12 years of dedicated practice.

Because I read the article I actually know the answer! It’s the first time this technology has been used in a human, and it’s been a huge success so far. Quote from the article

The BiVACOR total artificial heart, invented by Queensland-born Dr Daniel Timms, is the world’s first implantable rotary blood pump that can act as a complete replacement for a human heart, using magnetic levitation technology to replicate the natural blood flow of a healthy heart.

Yeah I considered community service too, and I think it would be a fair alternative.

When I was young and dumb I got caught spraying some graffiti and got like 50 or 60 hours of community service. Which would equal like $6-8/hr, and I think that’s a pretty even trade.

That usually happens around 5am for me. When the molly wears off and the birds start chirping

I guess it depends on what you define as “basic SQL”. Because most people are already used to working with desktop apps, and familiar with the office programs specifically.

You’d essentially have to teach them programming. Its like when people say “terminal is better than GUI” (it’s me, I say that) but then you forget about all of the people who don’t know the difference between a desktop and a modem

Actually the breed standards are changing to push breeders towards healthier dogs!

They are call Retropugs and they tend to be bread with things like Terriers to give them functional skulls and spines!

2 out of the 3 DSN locations aren’t even in the US or managed by NASA.

• NASA manages the Goldstone complex in California
• The Madrid complex is in Spain and managed by their national space agency
• The Canberra complex is in Australia and managed by their national space agency

Also, fun fact, the Canberra complex has the only antenna that can communicate with Voyager 2!

Oh man I jump around games all the time. I just finished God of War like a month ago after about a year because I’m always trying something new haha

I got a basil plant from Walmart a few months ago because it was literally the same price as the dried stuff.

I’ve been putting basil in basically everything haha

To be fair I think Excel is faster to get a novice up to speed than teaching them to program

Yeah the kid got like a $400 fine and told not to do that again. I think that’s a fair punishment for doing something really really stupid as a teenager.

Still probably not. The code also deleted files, deleted accounts, and created infinite loops which took down large chunks of the network and infrastructure.

You could take your code, but you can’t take down the company.

Yeah it’s Thursdays for me when I realize that I haven’t done shit this week and need to crank out a bunch of stuff haha
