I like to fix things. Especially old electronics.

A Dragon (with extra propellant in its trunk) managed to add some delta-v to ISS recently. No idea if it would be enough.

And Dragon can't replenish the ISS' own propellants, which is (I think?) only done by Progress.

I'm being ironic.

Also, it's the EastEastAsian Union now.

Our entire society exists because early trees couldn't be broken down by microbes, storing and transforming millions of years worth of solar energy into stupidly powerful substances that are also really easy to store and transport.

People living in Europe should be called "Asians" since Europe isn't even a real continent.

My wife is recovering from having her second one done this past Friday at Tria in Bloomington.

Sending all the best vibes!

I only ever had 2+ hour layovers at ATL and never traveled with checked bags, so I actually feel the same. I'd walk between terminals since the tunnels were less crowded than the trains, and after a long flight shoehorned into a sardine can, a vigorous walk feels amazing. Plus, there's art!

That reminds me, I need to look up when the X-59 flies next.

Cripes you have terrible timing.
"The Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika as a hate symbol.

"Instead, the Coast Guard will classify the Nazi insignia as 'potentially divisive' under its new guidelines.

"The new policy similarly downgrades the definition of nooses and the Confederate flag."

U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

I drew a circle in Paint because I wasn't 100% sure what my eyes were telling me. He's a wide boi.

What does the horizontal deflection signal look like? I'm wondering if it's ringing after zooming back to the left.

I grew up watching Shuttle. This is NOTHING. :)

I've often wondered if we clad our police in bright colors and painted their lethal weapons pink. Would it reduce the attraction to the job of fascists and people who couldn't cut it in the military if they couldn't look "bad-ass" while hurting people?

Fossil fuels (AIUI) came from undigestible lignin that got sequestered before lignin-eating microbes evolved and could get to it.

If some descendant of those microbes then evolved the ability to eat the hydrocarbons we hauled up from the depths, I think that would be hilarious.

Makes me wonder if the same microbe will like the taste of petroleum we've concentrated in various tanks around the world.

My world is still adjusting to the knowledge that Hugh Dillon was in band(s) before acting! :) The wiki mentioned punk in its description so I'm going with it until I listen to more.

The wiki articles for Hugh and Headstones are so dang Canadian.

✔️Hockey mentioned
✔️Tragically Hip mentioned

Oh my goodness I was not prepared to see Hugh Dillon fronting a punk band singing that song on a Monday morning.
