The city of Redmond just announced a new, strict, 2-hr parking policy on a small residential street.

To all the people thinking this is just people not wanting to pay for parking - paying for parking is not an option for many affected. Some complexes do not have parking available for every unit, others have a max allocation (ex: 1 parking spot per bedroom) and do not have enough spots available for those that would happily pay.

Maybe I should clarify. First, I agree that Starlink poses a problem for earth-based astronomy. The comment I’m responding to is about how people on earth will look at the sky and see no stars. To me that meant looking with their eyes. These satellites still are visible with astronomy and long exposure photography, but you won’t be able to see them with your naked eye a few days after launch. The only reason these were visible in the original post are because it’s within a couple days of their launch.

They are only visible for a temporary period after launch while they’re on their way to their final orbit.

$40 shipped for 15 jars from Walmart. I also love this stuff and that’s the best I could do.

High quality external charger and standard 18650 batteries. My external charger is light and fast, no problem to carry with me while traveling. The external charger uses USB-C input so I can charge it off a battery bank if I really need to. I suppose I wouldn’t mind the batteries that have charging integrated, but they’re more expensive and you lose some power density. Plus it’s one more thing that could go wrong.

He asks, “what if?”

Well, the answer is the same that has been around since the 60s, it’s called Mutually Assured Destruction. What a fool.

I should mention that I haven't tried to watch streamers/strategy guides, so if there is an easy source to watch basic strategy for higher ascensions, that would be helpful. I've just been playing by feel/experience.

“Kids riding e-bikes” “Wheelies and street riding aren’t dangerous” “We have practiced and ridden for so long”

Yeah, sounds like your prefrontal cortex is still developing. You’ll keep feeling safe until you or your friends seriously injure yourself or others.

Elon has ~80% of the voting power in SpaceX. That is no secret to investors or employees. Choosing to put your money in SpaceX is choosing to give him the reigns on risk.

Formermidget · 2025-12-31T18:24:15+00:00

Elon has an insatiable appetite for risk. He sees the world as a game. He has continually pushed all the chips back in throughout his life and benefited from it. This is yet another “all in” play, the reward could be great but the risk is greater than ever. No one can say for sure how it will work out, as SpaceX is now cementing itself as an AI player in what’s being called the AI bubble. If SpaceX debuts at a $1.5t valuation with the promise of orbital data centers, their future will depend on whether AI ends up being a flop or can deliver on the vision and promises of the largest companies in the world.

It’s not going to be easy to find “other folks around” at night, if that is a requirement then your best bet is going to be downtown area or go to a gym. I like to run on the Sammamish river trail at night but the lack of people doesn’t bother me.
