I am very typical earthling. I like earth food and earth drink and earth sports and earth media. Im all about earth things because I am so typical and earthling. so typical as to be very boring and not worth investigating or looking into because I am definately from earth.

  • To be fair afghanistan was where bin laden was holed up.

  • Shooting Something Into the Sun is HARD

    Jump

  • thanks for the written article as I don't like videos for information (great for entertainment purposes and that includes the occasional edutainment but I have to be in the mood for it). The written article im a bit unsure of though. It sounds like its talking about a direct crash into the sun. technically you would be looking at just making an orbit that would degrade and not hit anything else along the way. So that it would eventually crash into the sun. That being said I don't think we should treat the sun as a garbage disposal and all the dangers about launch are way valid.

  • nope. in most cases streaming works well enough but we do have many on a hard drive from the included itunes.

  • Would you support a mandatory retirement age of 75 for US House, US Senate & US Supreme Court Justices and if not why?

    Jump

  • certainly. even lower. Some people can be vigorous in their seventies but they are not the majority, 50's many go down. That is one problem with raising the retirement age in general. There is only a subset that can keep working as age goes up.

  • The Bezos Earth fund has pumped billions into climate and nature projects. So why are experts uneasy?

    Jump

  • The real problem is the relative wealth disparity. That is why his fund is so dominant. Paul mccarthy just became a billionaire. just barely and it reminds of when elvis was one of the richest persons and paid the top tax rate. Paul mccarthy should be at or near the top of wealth right now.

  • The Offspring, The Beastie Boys, Van Halen w/DLR, and the B52s. Are there other bands that rock, but are often silly/goofy and funny?

    Jump

  • Im more a stan ridgeway fan than wall of voodoo. I remember picking up a cassette way back and was very disapointed and did not understand what happened. Its only decades later that I found out. Its like tull and ian anderson for me even though the band has never not had him hes pretty much the influence I like. ironically im not wild about his solo stuff. I find he really needs some good artists to keep him grounded. Stan on the other hand, I like his solo stuff.

  • The Mac vs. PC war is back on?

    Jump

  • Im talking about the time when mac enthusiasts would brag about how many more ports a macbook had over a windows laptop. I use the term just because when they went minimalist design coincided when the apple store started acutally said they would not deal with something which was the cable losing their casing which did end up being a design issue so they handled it later but previous to that they would never not do something unless it was obvious you took a hammer to it or something. my last mac was the macbook pro erra with the dvd-i port.

    is this muslim argument accurate? "we can't doubt god testing us because it is gayeb (cannot be perceived or known by humans), something that only allah knows for example: children dying at birth"

  • We can't doubt that satan tests us with the creation of the false abrahamic religions because it is something that only satan knows.

  • The Mac vs. PC war is back on?

    Jump

  • I loved macs back when it was more maximalist design and its service was beyond reproach. anyone buying a pc might be installing linux on it. not that many vendors specific to linux.

  • Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act, preventing data broker sales to government agencies, moves forward

    Jump

  • so much agree. Why do we even allow data brokers? How about something like an entitiy cannot collect information that is not necessary to conduct the business it is in and cannot sell or provide that information to any other entity outside of the one they collected the information from which must be provided free upon request.

  • things like this I can't even imagine thinking about without words. Maybe there are non word things in them but my internal monologue drowns them out.

  • Linux mint or zorin OS for layman beginners who just want everything to work and focuses on stability , privacy , security ? Also what to do if I switched to mint and WiFi stopped working ?
