That's fucking wild. The scale is deceiving. Those are stairwells inside the towers.

True, but gravity is ~1/3 on Mars and 1/6 on the Moon. They won't need nearly as much thrust. A pad is likely to suffice there.

I'm perpetually 770-800 despite having no debt outside mortgage and perfect history. Apparently I don't have enough credit cards, since we only use one and pay it every month. I imagine my utilization is high since we put everything possible on the card for rewards and haven't bothered upping...

Though the bar for legal malpractice is pretty high. Set by lawyers, oddly enough.

Yes. This isn't enough information to identify cases. Typically you'd have case numbers, year, etc. To the extent that "Generic Name vs State" returns anything to do with Florida they seem to be drug cases. https://www.scribbr.com/apa-examples/court-case/

I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express, but none of those case citations is real.

It's almost certainly easier to correct factual errors than to wordsmith something written by your grad student who is only half literate in English.

A bit more insider info: "It looks like the rocket blasted massive quantities of dirt and concrete up into the sky when it throttled up for liftoff. It is likely that some of this hit the rocket and caused damage of several kinds. The engines seemed relatively healthy for a while, and the...

From comments on that twitter thread: Car's owner was an idiot for leaving it that close.

Self-destruct was called by the range safety officer once it was very clear they couldn't regain control.

My cousin who wrote the engine control software says, "I have never seen anything like that before! I'll let you know more when I know what happened, but for now all I know is that my software got one heck of a workout, and we set the all time record for most end to end flips before kaboom!"

It may take a couple years, but moderate amounts of skin stretch does tighten up with good diet and exercise. YMMV if Mrs. Nirgon had a serious case. The scar varies a lot and may fade over a longer timeframe.

Welp. I've arrived at the stage of life where I'm excited about a sink. I cut an opening into my countertop to take a 33'' farmhouse sink. Polishing the granite edges was a major PITA, but worth it. This thing is fucking great, best improvement ever. (Yes, this pic is before I hooked up the...

Paywall.

Interesting point, which led me to some googling. According to the document below, the noise level at the beach is expected to be 140+ decibels, which is more than loud enough to cause immediate aural injury...

My 8 year old daughter was taking shower today while the rest of the family was in the kitchen. From two rooms away we all hear a thunderous, prolonged fart followed by, "Oh noooo! It's a smelly one and I'm traaaaaaapped!" Lol.

FTFY

It sounds like they arranged the music on kazoos.

The bigger problem is going to be distinguishing scientifically valid ideas, dangerous or otherwise, from the torrents of sciency-sounding bullshit this will produce.

Nate will go in to fuck him up, not just collect a check.

This is why I'm going out on my own terms at the first sign of senility/dementia or terminal disease. My mother died early of cancer and fought to the bitter end at severe cost to everyone's quality of life (not that I hold it against her). I refuse to make my family deal with this.

AFAIK the bellyflop is the soft landing. They'd rather risk the hardware than people/assets at the landing site on this attempt. This particular version of Starship is already a couple design generations old.

A new one is almost $1100 these days. Used ones around me are listed for $900+, lol.

That's how I got into the hobby in the first place. I had a bunch of Ikea shit that shortly failed and I thought to myself, "Real furniture is crazy expensive, but I could totally do better than this on my own." So I watched a lot of guys on YouTube (Paul Sellers, Rob Cosman, etc.), and then I...

"T- 00:00:00 Excitement Guaranteed" Lol.

They don't unless they find rich customers willing to pay thousands of dollars for the cost of labor. Cost-sensive people buy bullshit from Ikea. That's just the nature of the craft. The easy solutions mostly suck.

IMO this is a more structurally sound knock-down hardware setup than a single bracket. (Yes, it has mortise/tenon but those are the gold standard for a reason): https://www.finewoodworking.com/2010/04/08/use-bed-bolts-for-a-knock-down-table If you don't care about the knock-down feature, it's...

Never marry your editor.

For the pedantically curious, there are 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 unique celestial bodies.

As people have been trying to tell you, the point of the extra monitors is not multitasking but to reduce the cost of switching your attention. Alt tabbing and finding the window you want 200 times an hour gets old with a quickness. Even if it only takes you one second that's a big productivity...

What part of town are you in? LA county is four times the size of Rhode Island. What kind of food do you like?

Go for it if you really like airports and hotels. Personally, I'd take the pay cut not to be on the road. I worked for AT Kearney after college and noped out of that lifestyle as soon as I realize how much it sucked for me.

That's the top. The whole other side is tiles.

Morning sex ftw.

My insider connection says they're shooting for the 10th but reschedules are likely.

I was responding to your reference of the tenon cutting saw. Cool tools and a steady hand for sure.

The radial arm saw? Those are neat tools if you use them properly. The old use case documentation is written by sone hilarious evil genius. Or did you mean the shaper he used to finish the cheeks? I think that was actually a giant router bit that looks like a blade.

Sanderson's classy response:

Ethiopian food is fucking delicious. Go here if you have the chance: https://destaethiopiankitchen.com/
