What if Hipparchus originally charted stars that no longer exist in our sky, due to having gone supernova hundreds of year ago? A thousand year time difference is roughly 1/3rd of …

I think he's just saying "We didn't start the fire (It was always burnin' since the world's been turnin'.)".

The Mandalorian was also an interesting case where they almost had to use a solution like on-set LED screens due to the reflectivity of his armor.

I've said this before, but Trump's form of tariffs are basically a firewall and paying tribute opens specific ports and addresses.

I remember creating a moat of farms around my town hall.

Many heart attacks occur because people don't get enough exercise and overeat. This is often the result of clinical depression. Is the killer depression or is it heart disease? Sam…

I noticed that you didn't address the question of whether birthright citizenship is an entitlement, because it's kind of hard to argue with the Constitution on that point. Secondly…

Federal loans are serviced by unscrupulous middle men like Nelnet. Before I understood a thing about federal interest rates and that, at the time, they were quite high historically…

Why the urgency to "do" anything at all?

You're better off getting an original Atari, and a box CRT set, and enjoying the experience as it was intended without frame delay. (These games are a lot easier to play when you d…

Do anthropomorphic trains count? The Little Engine That Could.

Slashdot is at least part of the same haplogroup, if not a close cousin.

"You probably rely on medicaid or medicare or the AHCA for health coverage. The first two are going to get slashed and the third is going to get shit-canned. Oh, and if you have a …
