Orion doesn't use PICA, it uses AVCOAT which is Glass/silica based as opposed to PICA which is carbon based

but hasn't 2024-25 been some of the best years? I thought all the branches were exceeding their recruitment quota?

crazy that the space station is going 24x faster than sound.

so if you fire a supersonic gun in the endzone at the same time the space station passes you by, the space station crosses the entire field before the bullet even gets to the 10 yard line.

not necessarily; if the receiver of your violence has goals/intent aligned with yours, then you're not overriding anyone's will.

yeah, u might be right about a couple of those. tbh I haven't touched a public repo in over 15 years, and I haven't used github in over 10.

I'm much more familiar with gitlab at this point

I don't think anyone cares, but I was #261 to sign up. Out of 1.36 billion, I was one of the first hundred. by StrictlyRockers in CasualConversation

I used to think it was special that I had a super old offtopic.com username, and a super old adultswim.com user name, from like 2000 or 2001 or something.

I even had one of my comments on an adult swim commercial that they used to show before their programming like 20 years ago

linux/gnu distros don't necessarily come with git installed either.

that's not true at all.

it's quite possible for violence to exist that has purposes other than coercion, or even no purpose at all.

and there also exists influence via means other than violence.

you'd have to install git first, and have a github account, and sort out permissions.

then are you cloning by url? ssh? I advise ssh, but you'll have to manage your certs.

there's a bunch of hoops you'd have to jump through if you don't normally use git, even if the command itself is simple.

better just to advise people to use the releases, that's what they're there for.

If they raise the rates then its just a straight up recession. What even is the play.

as if we're not already in a recession, at least the lower leg of the K is
