    I remember being amazed when I saw this as a kid and told everyone I had seen a "rainbow around the sun". I've never seen it again in person. Maybe I've learned not to stare in the…

    Is satellite internet going to become a crowded space that no other company can ever hope to enter due to skies becoming literally overcrowded with sattelites? Seems like a somewha…

    > how do you propose the polymarket betting mechanism is able to clean the money? I would assume that dirty money (from dirty wallets) is placed on the "losing side" of the bet. An…

    The hardest part _by far_ is texturing. I found matching the texture of the surrounding area near impossible during my DIY
