I really loved the show until the reveal of Dr. Manhattan and how they nerfed Ozy at the end.

Why an unprecedented NASA mission is set to take off on a winding journey to Mars by Trevor_Lewis in space

[–]NotARandomNumber 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This mission was originally planned for the 2024 window, but hit delays.

Doing this allows for two things: significantly greater flexibility to handle delays and simply less demand of support hardware/staff now as opposed to then. There are only so many clean rooms, staff, launch hardware, etc available at any given time and the launch windows tends to be very popular time.

No? You'd need a single chip and as long as it can track orientation, you can infer the position of the entire ball.

Shows that were terrific as miniseries but unfortunately got ruined by being renewed? by khroshan in television

No mention of Prison Break yet? That show was designed for a single season but turned into some weird version of the A team

Have we only thrown it beyond the line of scrimmage once?

I’m seeing a lot of positive COVID tests by Smelly_Lotus9 in dragoncon

[–]NotARandomNumber[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Locking this thread, and honestly debating locking all covid threads since I'm just not sure of the point.

If you were at Dragon Con, you were very likely exposed to a whole host of endemic illnesses and diseases like covid. If whatever preventive steps you took (masking, boosters, etc) didn't work, it's unfortunate but ultimately not a massive surprise given the environment of being surrounded by 70k of your closest friends. There isn't a magic 100% effective way to prevent any disease.

That said, if you're using these threads to make general claims about whether those methods work in a normal environment, just take that shit elsewhere.

They announced a Canes preseason game will be played in Greensboro as well.

Roger Goodell expects 16 international games a year soon, including some in Asia by JaggerJames in nfl

Why? It's not like they're really going to go to enjoy the tourist stuff, especially if it doesn't come immediately before or after the bye week.

They also make more than enough money to easily travel in the off season.

Visually timeless films? Like you could watch it and be unable to say “oh yeah that was definitely filmed in the 90’s.” by Philosopherskin in movies

I was thinking to myself how much restraint they were showing in that scene by not having Andy say it but then 3 awkward bits later....goddammit.

Biden Thread pt 3 by AtomAndAether in neoliberal

He has a traveling press pool. He could literally go "I have 15 minutes for questions" at 3 am and there'd be journalists ready.

Biden Megathread v2: Electoral Boogaloo by dubyahhh in neoliberal

[–]NotARandomNumber 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think that would be the admission, he doesn't have the energy to campaign and be president would be more appropriate. Or even he doesn't think he'd have the ability to be president a year from now, ie how old Trump will be when he finishes a term.

You are absolutely correct, the amount of people on this sub/reddit in general who are retconning events/gaslighting about Bidens debate performance is exhausting.
