Defend the Great Seal, Carl Sagan Pale Blue Dot Skywalkers!
Joy!
they announced it completed. Not sure if it worked as intended.
Starship is supposed to coast for the next 30 minutes, until T+ 40
45 seconds in, amazing all engines look great
It is looking like it might go on first attempt!
Fuel loading has gone well so far!
I saw Michelle MacDonald with Steely Dan in L.A. 2004?
ActivePub every platform has at least one major Intelligence Agency monitor who has to make a weekly report of ongoing. Do people really think 9/11 didn’t happen on message boards? A lot of secrets for corporate espionage and government leaks happen on message boards. There are worst things to waste staff time on.
“Lemmy” as an app has to have a file in case it comes up on some security matter - it has to have a definition on a Wiki somewhere!
I think the joke is how a pest exterminator is being called on an extinct species. Play on the mutual concept of extinction.
All the Unity game engine self-destruction choices got to them ;)
us bad > us hate china > china good
Kind of like Roger Waters in recent decade regarding Ukraine - “USA bad” is more what he cares about…
current predictions on launch date?
Over a full day between Only a few hours between the two accidents at the same location. Notable that both were hauling two trailers each.
The first truck was hauling two trailers and crashed just before 9 p.m. Friday when the driver hit an abandoned vehicle that was parked on the shoulder of the freeway, smashing through the guardrail and plunging into the river. The driver was able to swim to shore and was not injured, according to the Sherman County Sheriff’s Office.
The second truck crashed just before 12:30 a.m. Saturday as emergency responders were on scene for the first crash. A semi with two fuel tanker trailers in tow struck an Oregon Department of Transportation vehicle, slid off the freeway and crashed into the river next to the first two trailers. Investigators said the driver likely fell asleep before the crash. The sheriff’s office said the tanks were empty.
It’s already like that here, friend.
Lemmy didn’t take off until well into May 2023, despite being online and open source for over 4 years. The quantity of posts, communities, comments was very small for 4 years online.
Then everyone flocked out of hate and anger of an API money matter with Reddit.Then crowds got hate-filled and angry when Threads was launched by Meta/Instagram/Facebook on July 5. And crowds became hate-filled and angry over Elon Musk rename of Twitter to X on July 23.
Outside big growth in memes and shitposts, there haven’t been big numbers of people flocking here out of organic goodness on organized topics. It has largely been a HiveMind of hate as a motivation to come here since May.
Some good seeds have been planted since May, but the atmosphere of hate motivates change is pretty much Mob Mentality / reactionary.
When cross-posted >= 2, should go to a dedicated page like Reddit has had for a very long time… and allow easy viewing of who posted, date, number of comments, date of last comment, votes, etc.
A joke that would mostly work on pre-digital camera generations… those odd night sightings that would now be social media material.
That’s why I linked the hot dog eating contest, which is a drag race
