1. Funny, that's also what the right-wingers keep blathering on about.

2. This wasn't hidden at all. I knew about it immediately, posts and stories about the explosion were being shared immediately. It was an extremely public event, and exhaustively reported on.

1. It's two separate stories. The booster was caught perfectly, the top stage blew up.

2. I knew immediately because I was watching the feed where they said "we lost the top stage."

3. The success is much more interesting than the failure, and more newsworthy.

Nothing was hidden or secret. In fact, for two years all I ever heard was people everywhere laughing that the rockets were blowing up, when the rockets were (and still are) experimental and prone to failure since they're literally advancing rocket science.

Yeah my argonian just hopped everywhere.

I'll still play it. It's my favorite game ever and I'm curious how this will look.

Would it be possible for a bad actor to connect a gas powered generator and get more tokens?

hobbies are pointless because there’s just no improvement past certain point anyway

This is false for two reasons. One, "hobbies" aren't just for improvement. They're for fun, to express yourself and make something you find valuable. And two, there is improvement if you tackle increasing challenges.

I guess I'm lucky because I'm obsessed with my personal projects. They give my life structure. I'm not getting any interviews, not making any money, but I'm motivated every day by the ambitious projects I work on.

I don't use the microwave. Also I didn't know there were different heat settings.

If anyone knew the answer there would be no addicts.

In the end, their drive to sobriety must be consistently stronger than the drive for drugs. There's no moral system with the power to counteract that. And it's not a moral failure that they can't.

In other contexts people love to blather about the power of discipline over motivation. Well this proves the lie. It has to come down to motivation, consistently. And you probably don't have the power to motivate them to consistently stay sober. You can't make sobriety consistently more enticing than getting high. The rest of us are more enamored by what sobriety offers. We are not morally stronger. We just prefer being sober, consistently (or some of us prefer other, less-destructive forms of intoxication).

Sorry about your friend. Take care of yourself.

Because they peed on your fucking rug.

How exactly did your dad "arrange" your marriage? Sounds illegal.

Funny personalities don't make people laugh, and therefore aren't really funny. They're more patronizing and infantalizing.

Should I explain that not all planets live in the same Federation? I’m thinking no.

I think you've already gone astray from really explaining the (relatively simple) relationship between federated instances. It's already confusing because you're trying to make it fun.

I say, give your app whatever functionality you think is best, and the aesthetic/style/personality you think is best, but don't worry about making the fediverse "fun." Fun descriptions actually distract from the information.

Actually I just get one bottle (of each) every 2 years. Even so, it's slightly expensive, and I bet that there's a cheaper alternative if I could find out what the ingredients are.
