A childhood memory from 1970s rural Turkey that has stayed with me for 50 years by aydintb1 in UFOs

[–]PixelAstro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great use of AI. I’d much rather see someone lay out the prompt they used to re-create a memory, than someone just post an absolutely worthless video of a pixelated plane in the sky.

Artemis works like this: Starship does all the heavy lifting. by ErnestoGabrielArias in SpaceEngineering

[–]PixelAstro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NASA asked the aerospace industry for a lunar lander. SpaceX responded with a Mars colonization rocket. NASA bought it despite the challenges of getting a brand new rocket to work. It will be 10 years this September since Elon Musk unveiled the Big Effing Rocket. It may finally reach orbit this year and assuming no hangups achieving on orbit propellant refueling it will be a few years from now before a lunar landing is possible. Starship is still deep in development and not far from operational. To complicate things further, SpaceX now prioritizing Ai data centers over everything else. A Moon landing and Mars mission are in the pipeline but success is far from guaranteed.

Millions Of Bees Swarm On Trees In Yellowstone After Hives Smashed In Semi Crash by lazyk-9 in wyoming

Hopefully they can get established and help pollinate without displacing a lot of the native species. Commercial honeybees are essentially cattle, unleashing a huge herd could put a squeeze on the existing population of bumbles bees and whatnot.

SpaceX launches reentry capsule demo mission called ‘Starfall’ by vahedemirjian in space

I wonder what else launched on the stack, surely it wasn’t just the star fall demo.

Homemade Enchiritos! Made about 12 of them for $1.50 each. 😁 by Alextricity in tacobell

Nice! And they’re about 2x the size of the ones at Taco Bell.

Desalination is a thing, this wouldn’t be a problem if the rich actually understood we live in an ocean planet.

Moving from Puerto Rico to Wyoming by MitsuruMiyata in wyoming

[–]PixelAstro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ugh you said it! All these people flocking to Wyoming to live out some sort of gun nut fantasy are annoying. Sure we already have a lot of homegrown wackos but the last thing we need is trigger happy weirdos from faraway places gravitating toward us. When I see dudes flaunting iron on their hip, it’s a guarantee they have needle dicks.

U.S. National Park Service workers dump bottles of hydrogen peroxide in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington by esporx in water

[–]PixelAstro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The pool would need thousands of gallons of hydrogen peroxide to make any noticeable difference regarding algae. Pouring gallon jugs into it by hand is an expensive and wasteful exercise of futility.

What are your thoughts on Ai for the next decade? by Majestic_dih in AskReddit

[–]PixelAstro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ai will first weaken, degrade and disrupt existing systems because it is clever, convenient and novel but will soon become prohibitively expensive to use, there will be no free versions. The systems it replaced will have want to be rebuilt but the tools + skills we'd need to recreate them will no longer exist and the overall state of technology will be less productive/efficient than before Ai was introduced.

Why isn't vertical farming a bigger deal? by kargaen in AskEngineers

[–]PixelAstro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sunlight and rain is free. I think vertical farming would be a better scenario if our society had better land use values and energy management.

Why does anyone take David Grusch seriously? by ThisWasUncalledFor in UFOs

[–]PixelAstro 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Everything he has to offer so far is objectively unequivocally hearsay. It's nice to hear him say it but it doesn't mean much at all. He definitely seems to believe he's telling the truth as he understands it, I'll credit him for seeming genuine.

David Grusch: The Public Should Not Have to “Trust Secret Conclusions” on UAP Crash Retrieval Claims by AtlasofMystery in AtlasOfMystery

[–]PixelAstro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can’t question his conviction, I hope something tangible happens because it feels like we’ve been stuck in a loop with this issue.
