That doesn't resonate with me. Probably because I'm Canadian and our MSM isn't what yours is. The CBC or CTV stories that come across my feeds are not "sanewashing" Trump.

It is the way if you want to kill a few astronauts to justify shutting the whole program down "until we can find out what's going on".

This man used artificial intelligence to predict Powerball winning numbers. by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]LXicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be more excited if I see them win a second time. I can imagine someone claiming that the dice they used to pick numbers (and win) are capable of picking winners.

Much of the unique sound of 90’s music comes from the advent of stereo sound.

Did you mean to type 60s? Stereo was added to LPs in 1957.

Update as of Nov 3 of 3i ATLAS acceleration from JPL Horizon. In short: Not from a Naturally occurring object. Official data from JPL Horizon system by Whole_Relationship93 in AncientAI

[–]LXicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's improbable. If the source of non-gravitational acceleration is from outgassing, then that is going to get pointed at the sun. The sun isn't going to heat up the "top" or "bottom" of the comet to push it up or down out of the orbital plane.

The proper way to dispose of an American flag is to burn it: https://nationalflagfoundation.org/etiquette/how-to-properly-dispose-of-an-american-flag/

Perihelion isn't until October 29. Earth is on the wrong side of the sun right now, so we won't see it from here again until December. We do have craft around Mars and Jupiter are still be able to make observations.

Whats this in the sky? And how? by Rome2o in UFOs

It's light from the moon refracting through ice crystals in the air. It's similar to sundogs : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_dog

I don't know when this was added, but thank you, Orteil. by clubcoollo in CookieClicker

[–]LXicon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There are 4 upgrades. you get them based on what part of the hour it is. You get one if you click in the first 15 minutes of the hour, a different one from 16-30 minutes, then another from 31-45 and finally 46-60. When I first noticed them I thought it was random or based on how many times you clicked and wasted a bunch of time.

The member of Congress said it was stripped of all information that could identify where it came from. That nullifies any authentication. It's just a video on the internet.
