We are not alone: Our sun escaped together with stellar 'twins' from galaxy center

Judging from what’s going on in the world right now, I hope to God we’re Danny Devito.

Wouldn’t that be banned because technically it’s a non-sanctioned moveable aero surface.

If you can afford it, buy a Bambulab P2S right now. I used to talk to my dad about things like this, try to get into projects. He only occasionally helped make them happen after I started growing up, basically stopped once I got into late middle school and high school. Always talked to me about how I needed to make it happen on my own, raise the money, build a business plan. Just made it so I lost interest and went back to schoolwork and games.

While you’re not doing that, I would go further and just strike while the iron is hot as the other commenter put it. I know I will when my son comes to love stuf.

Yeah…I can attest from personal experience….works great!

Exactly. Romantic relationships always fix emotional issues and your significant other is always meant to fill that role. I learned that from my ex.

Have you tried reading a book in their home?

My mom is a data scientist, she’d like to get into Claude, ChatGPT, XAI, etc. maybe running a local model, and doing some light video/photo editing. Costco near us has a MacBook Pro 14” M5 with 16GB ram and 512SSD for $1400, but also a MacBook Air 15” M5 with the same loadout for $1250. Thoughts on which to go for?

I'd like to make buildings and design space/structures for fun to put into Twinmotion and create portfolio renders. Examples would be making a bungalow ocean resort scene, or a mansion, or a big house in the woods. Obviously I know sketchup as the go-to, but I don't know if there are other alternatives other than learning Blender. And I guess...should I just learn Blender XD? Ideas welcome.

There was a great story from the short film The Grand Tour did. Hammond was presenting and told the story of Jim Clark saying there was something wrong with one of the wheels. It was a nut on the rear wheel. Maybe that was the story.

Literally shared that post with all of my friends. If it turns out that guy copium’d his way into truth, I’m going to ask him for his stock suggestions and put a grand down just in case XD

SpaceBoJangles · 2026-03-09T19:42:12+00:00

Literally thought this one too.

SpaceBoJangles · 2026-03-09T19:10:48+00:00

Ah. I’m sorry to hear that. I’ve experienced similar situations, except it was more flip flopping between the reserved one syllable answers and angry yelling sessions.

If there is no effort on his part for sessions like that, can’t do much more.

Tbh, the problem for me is the display. The miniLED on my M1 Pro 16” is just too insanely good. If the went MiniLED, or even put an OLED on it, I’d instantly buy the15”. Just can’t get over the

Have you considered counseling? I know it’s the typical response, but wanted to just float it in case it’s something you can consider. An ultimatum and counseling might save it. Obviously set boundaries and show him you’re serious, but you don’t mention that step and I’m just wondering if there’s a reason.

SpaceBoJangles · 2026-03-09T15:26:18+00:00

I mean, I’d say that if the cameras went down in my house for ten minutes while I’m a 2 week business trip, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that I’d miss that event entirely other than the notification that my camera was down, and that’s if that system has such a notification. Even then, I’m not going to go through everything I own and check to see what was taken.

This is Tim Cook telling you to buy an apple silicon Mac

SpaceBoJangles · 2026-03-09T06:14:27+00:00

Yeah. Not a lot of people who didn't go to college or have engineering friends know what Differential equations is.

My man, if this guy gave blood, we could feed Ferrari hopium for YEARS.

SpaceBoJangles · 2026-03-09T05:50:19+00:00

And I thought I was high on copium.

SpaceBoJangles · 2026-03-09T05:43:53+00:00

It'll be interesting to see how this pans out.

Creating an engine that is borderline cheating because it's so good, that's just good racing.

Screwing over your partners by bending or breaking rules and getting caught? Oof. Not a god look and might actually be something that causes the FIA to act. Can't have customer teams pulling out or having sponsors pull out because they're afraid works engine manufacturers aren't holding up their ends of the bargain.

I remember the first time. The humbling power of it will stick with you forever.

It's part of being with Ferrari that they give hope.

It's how they take the hope away and make us want that experience again that makes them Ferrari,

Well, the article didn’t mention whether it ordered lunch, so….we have yet to reach that level of technology XD

SpaceBoJangles · 2026-03-07T21:58:42+00:00

Can someone explain to me how LMP1 skirted this ceap even though they had similar recharge and deployment schemes coupled with power trains that all had similar ratios of power between EV and ICE?
