I'm in the space industry and I can tell you that anyone pretending to be an authority on orbital mechanics on the internet is full of shit. I've taken entire classes called "advanced orbital mechanics." That shit is wildly hard, vaguely inaccurate, and so slow that you can only do it effectively on a computer. Even then you have to decide which variables to throw out because you if you use them all you won't be able to calculate predictions on every satellite in time for them to be useful. Then you have to take the predictions, predict how wrong they are, and predict again based on those predictions if two satellites will run into each other.

The truth is that nobody knows if Kessler Syndrome is even real. I personally fall on the side of thinking it's nonsense, there are too many variables that would have to go wrong all at once. It's like being worried about winning the lottery. There have been multiple catastrophic on orbit conjunctions that have created thousands of pieces of debris. Still no Kessler Syndrome. Even in a nightmare scenario I can only see it affecting one orbital regime. The odds of Starlink effecting the orbit that GPS is in is effectively not possible. But this is not a solved field and I am not remotely an expert, I'm just tired of people who don't know a thing about the field thinking they're experts because they have a JWST desktop wallpaper and have 300 hours in KSP. The real experts are ancient old men and women who have been doing orbital predictions for 40 years and I've seen them get into yelling matches about this sort of thing.

This post got away from me but the point is this shit is so involved it effectively can't be fact checked because you could come to whatever conclusion you want.

The tow was (rip) the bar. That's wild, you can literally see the change happening in real time. If you guys do work on the radar regularly we've probably met haha, small world.

I left not too long ago, it's gotten significantly warmer. Rained every week of summer. I think it hit 60 one day. The tow is closed because the permafrost underneath shifted and the building is cracking in half.

It was revealed to you in a dream

5 years? Mon frere it came out December of 2020.

All authority is derived from the monopolization of violence.

They really need a "start me after Konpeki Plaza" mode with a few thousand €$ and a handful of perk points thrown in.

The story is genuinely good but really drags on after you've seen it once or twice. I have the "skip dialogue" button setup to a macro that spams it like 50 times and a quick button on my mouse to trigger it.

It's all pretty baffling when you realize there are multiple genuinely good and well thought out builds in the game that are effectively mutually exclusive without a way to reset your perks, so you really need to restart the game to see them, but this is my third run through and I can't imagine doing this again any time soon.

Depends on the cost of living and state taxes in an area. Usually it's $3.50-$5.00 a gallon/~4 liters. At the gas stations in Germany on American military bases it's about $4.50 a gallon right now.

The Spaces Force is getting wild with our patches, full color, PVC, start from the ground up and fuck heraldry. Absolutely love them.

Nobody goes to Starbucks for good coffee, they go because it's the same everywhere. Sometimes I want to go get a great coffee somewhere they know how to pull a decent shot, and sometimes I want brownish sugarmilk.
