For real. Nintendo 64 was not a niche hobby, and the games were still 70 to 80 bucks. That’s like $160 in today dollars. It shows, too. We got all this technology, but the care, polish, attention just isn’t there.

Fair enough. My bad for assuming.

Infighting and bitching about each other and blaming a straw man for not stepping up instead of stepping up.

Go run for office. Go join a campaign. Go donate or volunteer. They are like you. Act.

That’s the insidious side of them accusing the 2020 of being stolen so adamantly. You can’t turn around and do the same for 2024 without walking straight into copying the same behavior (albeit genuine rather than projection). This takes away a lot of strength from the argument, normalizes and waters down stolen election drama.

I think there is evidence, but it’s not made a big deal of. The media conglomerates are complicit. Their investors want the same corpocracy late stage capitalism that the tech bros and grifters do. Collectively, they have taken so much wealth and control over our system that it’s hard to even market one particular crime in all the deluge.

They didn’t even sentence him for felonies he was convicted of. It’s like they just collectively decided not to pursue any legal action against the president.

Damn, I misread this and went looking for mine like crazy. I need some sleep

What the fuck is the point? Even if you were trying to be ruthless or just protect some rich asshole, it makes more sense to get the guy that’s the actual threat. You can’t look for the right guy if you’re too busy locking up the wrong guy.

I never said they were intelligently designed. Evolution is an iterative, stochastic design process that produced a bunch of badass motherfuckers that stunt on everything else on this planet- us. Our ancestors needed dopamine reward systems to encourage them to hunt and to kill. It is how they survived to produce us. It is baked into our DNA.

I do not hunt, personally. I am disabled. However, I respect those that do. It’s in their blood. Who are we to judge? No one is perfect, and that’s the whole point.

Evolution has given us dopamine receptors that reward hunting. It’s not as necessary in modern society, but nevertheless, our ancestors needed it.

For the record, I don’t hunt. I was forced to as a kid, but I’m disabled and I couldn’t really do it. It was a horrible experience and I don’t want to hurt anything.

That doesn’t mean I don’t understand that others are different. I accept them.

No, humans are designed to kill animals, eat their meat, and use other parts for clothing and more.

Some ion trajectories involve constant low acceleration. It really adds up time. You accelerate halfway there, then decelerate the rest of the way.

The dawn spacecraft mission to ceres has 48,000+ hours of gentle acceleration under ion propulsion. That’s 5.5 years of firing. But it gets over 38,620 km/h of delta-v (acceleration).

They are great.

Most businesses nowadays have a bit of a backlog. It’s more efficient that way, because you can keep the workload at 100%. So my interpretation is that a two week backlog would mean there’s a few other simulations ahead of you in line.

My interpretation is that the two weeks is a backlog. The drag coefficient guys probably have a bunch of models coming in, and they have a bit of an inbox and yours gets in the queue.
