Pretty sure it says “Have you tried turning it off and on again?”

It’s hard to understand without the associated hand gestures though.

(Edit to add in seriousness: yes, the first part says it can’t pop up the integrated flash, second part says try restarting the camera, I think)

Interesting idea! Since everyone in the city was a sports fan and participated in the riots, and of course everyone participating in the riots was from the city, it totally makes sense.

The US generates almost stadium-full amounts of trash every day.

They’re called Trump rallies.

This is what he wanted. Now the state is the bad guy.

Anyone know what they’re saying about this in the MAGA camps?

I think we’re confused by what you’re saying.

Yo momma tried reading a book but she so fat she ate it as a snack instead.

Real men sit to pee so they don’t have to clean their own piss up later.

Whenever I talk about this, some asshat will come along and make a comment about sitting on a tree. No, dumbass, I don’t sit to pee on a tree. Or a urinal. I sit to pee on my toilet at home so I can tell you what an idiot you are while I’m pissing just to prove how manly I am.

it’s almost like we are trying to out-stupid them.

Well I wouldn’t go that far lol

It would still be a dumb article.

Yeah I’m not arguing that. But the point is different… He’s talking about longevity, not acumen.

He’s talking about how long young people will last on the supreme court. Still gross, but this article is click-baity and dumb with its premise.

The “staggering” amount they’re spending is nothing for them. It would be the equivalent of multi-millionaires giving 10s of thousands of dollars.

They’ll save more in taxes in a day.

On Saturday, competing couples did not have to be married, nor did they have to be a man and a woman.

Awesome. Looks like a lot of fun!

At least a bunch of ad/marketing execs are going to make big money!

Agreed. As I mentioned elsewhere, Falcon 9 is still revolutionary, but I was just clarifying that the SRBs were recycled, as that is sometimes forgotten.

The Solid Rocket Boosters (SRBs) from shuttle launched were recycled. They parachuted into the ocean after being jettisoned and were recovered and refused. They just didn’t land themselves. The external fuel tank was not reused.

Yes, but it’s essentially incremental engineering, made possible by ginormous funding, including NASA money, and a private company doing things that NASA can-t politically afford.

NASA spent about 50 Billion today-dollars developing (not launching) the shuttle program and that went to private contractors (Boeing, Lockheed, United Space, etc.) Starship has a long way to go to hit those numbers.

I really don’t find anything SpaceX is doing revolutionary

Really? Nothing? Many people said what Falcon 9 now does on a regular basis could not be done. No one was even trying. The closest plans were still going to land horizontally and went nowhere. Now, you have to explain why you’re not landing your booster, and what your plans are to fix that going forward: https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/international/2024/09/11/china-wants-to-replace-jeff-bezos-as-musks-greatest-space-threat/

They quite literally revolutionized the space industry in terms of the cost to launch to orbit.

Imagine NASA crashing 4 Shuttles before getting landing right. There’d be no NASA by now.

Yet another way they’ve revolutionized the industry. Almost everyone is doing expendable tests now so that they can move forward quickly. Columbia started construction in 1975, launched for the first time in 1981. When they launched it, it was a fully decked out space shuttle and they put the whole thing on the line - including two astronauts. Imagine NASA trying to do that now. They’d be grounded so hard they’d be jealous of Mankind having a table to land on.

Didn’t get walled for me. I think they give you a number of free articles each week before triggering the paywall. I grab the url and go to archive.is or another archiver when it happens.

I would have expected that to be a prime suspect and eliminated or confirmed quickly…
