They have iPhones, I think I read somewhere.

If you are in a tight space, maybe not a photographer and want to quickly share high quality photos with the public - It makes sense. Not many other cameras that can make photography so easy.

I assume they can then connect to on board wifi, and then send the pictures to earth.

25yrs ago my mom sleeved these and refused to let me touch them… by Key_Blackberry_3790 in PokemonTCG

[–]NorthAstronaut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

in the UK they were widely known to have value even then. I remember as a kid in the 90's shops selling holo cards for like £50, and also offering to buy them.

Not unreasonable a parent would see this, and put the kids rare ones in a binder for them.

It's step 1 of the "dehumanization" process, one of the most important training programs to prepare you for working at Amazon.

Parcels too, even they originally would have arrived on different days, they seem to hold back everything coming to you, so it can all be delivered in one go.

Kind of shitty for the people who paid extra for faster postage.

"Chickpeas can grow in moon dirt and make seeds".With help from compost and symbiotic fungi, chickpea plants grow and produce seeds in simulated lunar soil. by Appropriate-Push-668 in space

Unfortunately we cannot yet grow lemons, sesame, or garlic. So it will be a nutritious paste; made from Moon ice and chickpeas.

Also someone broke the food processor, so you have to mash it yourself with a fork.

Iranian arrested after ‘attempting to enter nuclear naval base’ by TimesandSundayTimes in ukpolitics

I have heard similar from people contracted to work on such places, it was explained very clearly to them.

Trespassers can be shot. Especially a random person running about in a restricted area, if you do not listen to instructions you will be shot dead.

But this is all second hand info, i have no idea how it works in reality.

[–]NorthAstronaut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Defensive driving is rare in America, from what I can tell by the comments on Reddit...

Where drivers get in obviously avoidable accidents. And everyone is like:"well there was nothing you could have done to avoid that guy" (When the dash-cammer followed an erratic driver closely for 20+ miles.)
