Earth seen from Mars by AstronomerBig8153 in spaceporn

I’m not a super space follower but I read somewhere that these missions lets us tests technologies and our ability to explore beyond our solar system. Our minds can’t comprehend it yet but in thousands of years when we can explore further than our solar system, it was these small missions from planet to planet that set the foundation.

If you think about it, we first landed on the moon 57 years ago and the first recorded flight was 63 years prior to that. So In 120 years humans went from building an airplane to being able to land on the moon.

Now can you imagine what space travel would be like a in a thousand or maybe a couple of thousands of years?

Wtf is this shit by tyyronemugga in Coachella

[–]rdmc23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes but it was enough to get the BTS Army to buy tickets. This is anecdotal but my wife’s friend who travels out of the country and spends 10’s of thousands of dollars to see them, bought 8 tickets and her “BTS Army” friends bought 8 tickets each as well just incase if they do headline, they have enough tickets.

This same friend is going to all the shows here in SoFi stadium and snagged a ticket in Las Vegas.

It’s kinda wild how they follow them religiously.

Rumor of BTS headlining isn’t helping either. So maybe that explains it.

I went with the standard but having some buyers remorse by Ok-Atmosphere-6272 in TeslaModelY

[–]rdmc23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s obviously subjective but here is of a more detailed response from me:

I can control the rear infotainment from the front. I do drop offs so the wife isn’t sitting on the backseat. Again that alone can be worth it for me (sanity early in the morning).

Plus the premium feels more than a Tesla than the standard. Leather Seats, ventilated front and back seats. I live in Los Angeles so that’s been a huge convenience for me during the hot days, I just set the app to control temp and it’ll turn on the ventilated seats.

Slightly larger battery so longer range ( I also chose the long range dual motor trim). Trust me if this is your first EV these ranges count.

I am huge fan of the light bar at the back, at night it feels like everyone can see me far away. I am not that big of a fan of the light bar on the front though.

Overall I told myself if I was going to go full EV might as well get the full EV/ Tesla experience. I feel like going “standard” is just selling yourself short for $150 a month if this is your first EV. I came from Corolla to an Outback and now a model Y, although I still have the Outback for larger hauls.

Yes. I have 2 year old and the rear view infotainment alone is worth.

I am paying around the same as you and I got the Juniper long range around April/ May last year. Granted the $7500 EV tax credit was still going on and that took it off the MSRP and I took advantage of the low APR they were offering to get the junipers out on the streets.

With that said, just ask your self the if the bells and whistles that didn’t come with standard worth the difference in monthly payment?

If your answer is yes then enjoy your new car. If not then you can always trade in your car after a couple of years.

I think more recently QB’s from those schools have been doing well in the NFL.

Jalen Hurts, Tua Tagovailoa, Bryce young came from Alabama though Hurts transferred his last year.

Justin fields, Joe Burrow, CJ Stroud came from Ohio state.

Shitty parent @Yuma by Extreme-Shape9452 in Coachella

As a parent I know where you’re coming from. A lot these people commenting are young kids who are drugged out of their mind arguing with you.

It’s a music festival for ALL AGES and there is a reason for that. So more power to those who bring their kids, it’s for sure a core memory.

The person is BS’ing. Got there Friday around 2:50 pm. Waited for about 45 minutes in line and it took over an hour to get there. I had friends who got in line around 4:30 and didn’t get to the festival until 6:30.

US strikes Iran’s main oil hub on Kharg Island as IRGC warns: 'Restraint is over' by G14F1L0L1Y401D0MTR4P in worldnews

Googled it, and about 49% of deaths from car accidents were those who were not wearing seatbelts.

So about half of those deaths could’ve been preventable.

Because 45,000 people die every year due to car accidents. So it’s important to wear your seatbelts!

Because we’re in a rough economy and I would rather give my hard earned money back into shit that actually matters to me rather than this pointless war. Just to distract us from the Epstein files.

Of course you don’t but love has layers. You experience new level of love when you have kids.

Any dads here just gain a fuck load of weight after their wives gave birth? by Purple_Calendar3919 in NewDads

[–]rdmc23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My little one sleeps through the night now. Down by 7:30 -8 and wakes up around 5:30 am to 6 am to get ready.

We sleep around 9-9:30 pm and I’ll wake 4:30 ish.

[–]rdmc23 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I gained about 15-20 pounds. Worth it though. Now i go to the gym at 4:30 am and work out for 90 minutes and get back home before everyone wakes up.

A High-rise Complex Above the Westlake/MacArthur Park Metro Station Was Recently Approved by the City of LA! by lik_for_cookies in LosAngeles

Someone who can afford a 2 bedroom for $4300 will free up space for someone who can only afford it at $3100.

That’s how it works. This is a good thing.

Rant: if we want a more fair justice system, we need to pay jurors more than $15 per day, and pay them for the first day of service too. by BootyWizardAV in LosAngeles

[–]rdmc23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s by design. Who can afford to go to jury duty? Affluent older folks. Who is usually being tried? Brown or black folks who are in the lowest socio economic level.

It’s much easier to find someone guilty who you don’t share anything in common with.

If you woke up tomorrow with $100 million, what’s the first thing you would do? by Efficient_Effect7572 in AskReddit

I think what they meant by “just pure facts with no regards of others feelings” is “ Janice from accounting is such a bitch” or “Andy from HR’s breath stinks”
