Good to see people are learning that when they finally elect the stupid, they finally learn what was -really- going through those stupid heads for all those years. What they get is marinated in stupid… proud stupid … EPIC stupid. (Compated to today’s crowd, Reagan was a genius.)

Whatshisname ruled the USSR for over 20 years … tried putting his name all over everything. Renaming major cities for example … and within a short time after he died, Russians pulled down all the statues (smashed with sledgehammers) and renamed the cities. Hmmm. wasn’t Ozymandias …

Thanks for the pointer. Very informative insights into what’s going on in this area … news stories seldom take the time to explain these details.

It has been fun watching that Old Guard tearing themselves apart -every day-.

LOL Wishing doesn’t make it so.

Well sure … but then, a majority of Americans actually VOTED FOR HIM. So … what’s that worth at the Bogega?

Yeah! Like, hmmmm… was it really a storm that brought Arecibo down? Or … was the storm just used as a cover by ET hackers?

Well yeah. But that’s to be expected in astronomy, they have to keep changing the model as they learn more and more. Who knew 40 years ago that stellar atmospheres could broaden radio-frequency lines?

Fair cop … but society’s to blame !

“You’re Going to Have to Trust Us”

Is that anything like “Don’t Be Evil”? (Google motto, 2004. No definition of evil followed.)

Reagan once said “Trust But Verify”. So … where can we do that at? (and who pays?)

For years, just in case I’ve missed disabling some FF telemetry … Every night I disable networking. Mornings I start FF up first, and (once my -local- home page is fully loaded) only then do I enable networking.

I guess that’s okay, if we really got our money’s worth.

Here’s a back-up, science paper on MOF from Nature with measured numbers. 8 liters per KG per day isn’t 1000 gallons until you get to 2 tons … but it’s about 200 liters per out of 25 KG … easily carried.

"The effects of temperature, relative humidity, and powder bed thickness on the adsorption-desorption process are explored for achieving optimal operational parameters. We found that Zr-MOF-808 can produce up to 8.66 LH2O kg−1MOF day−1, an extraordinary finding that outperforms any previously reported values for MOF-based systems… "

Wow, that would save A LOT of lives

Same fella that just told the EU that the US is its child and always will be. Hmmm, how many parents take the advice of their young teenaged kids?

So-called intelligence:

"There was little sense of horror or revulsion at the prospect of all out nuclear war, even though the models had been reminded about the devastating implications.”

Actual intelligence:

"A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess? "

Holding on to one’s preferred human culture and values is not being ‘left behind’ in any sense … they may in fact be ‘left ahead’.

The sooner EUrope has a firm handle on its own IT ecosystem, the sooner it can tell the US to go pound sand. Macron is spot on.

Yeah, that would be a high priority item that I’m sure was part of the talk.

" … Or maybe it was released by ‘ICE-helpers’ trying to get people to stop all of the well-deserved harsh criticism." Oh wait, the NYT is the holy of holies… never mind …

It might get better just before the next election …
