irony, karma or both?

An attorney who vigorously fought Florida's helmet laws died in a motorcycle accident while not wearing one. His autopsy report listed blunt head trauma as the cause of death.

Ron Smith, 66, and his girlfriend both died while riding a motorcycle on August 20. Neither was wearing a helmet, The Tampa Bay Times reported.

Scratch Russia, after this they will be lucky to get into orbit. America too if the republicans win, MTG will be holding hearings on proving the earth is flat FFS or NASAs mission should be to find heaven up there in the sky, it exists, the Bibles says so, now prove it!

The Moon as a stepping stone to Mars | DW News

11,325 views Oct 27, 2022 The space race is back — with multiple countries, including China, Russia, India, and Israel — trying to reach the moon. But not just for national glory: Space agencies see the moon as a gateway for missions to Mars and beyond. German astronaut Alexander Gerst and ESA director general Josef Ansbacher talk about the Artemis mission and why we should have a permanent settlement on the moon.

They should focus on virtual sex, AI, robotic hookers and such, do more research on dildonics... Sex sells, and a masturbation machine hooked up to yer dick and brain might just be a winner (delivered in a plan brown box). Social media will be nothing compared to virtual sex, the pervert market alone would be worth billions! Secretly record their fantasies and blackmail them! What would happen if it got hacked and you suddenly found yourself having sex with MTG!

I have one of those, they are freaking rad, everyone should give it a whirl. Got it during the pandemic for virtual field trips/tours.

I did go take a look at vr porn....it was alright. The perspective is always a bit strange and you feel like your a foot too tall. My overall impression was "I want to open the desk drawers of this desk people are fucking on."

VR is rad and the wave of the future.

You are where your head is, here is a bit of reality based FPV, the only thing missing are the G forces, the pucker factor remains cause the drone costs cash. These days digital FPV googles are real good, though a bit expensive.

A great tune, scenery and flying.

Kinda reminds ya of the middle-aged and older anti vaxxers who used to croak from covid regularly.

The sun just set locally, and I’m getting the snack tray ready for a twilight Falcon launch out of Vandenberg at 6:14pm PDT. The binos are in the backyard, dialed in and ready. Nice that yesterday’s dust-kicking wind went away.

twilight launches so totally rock. Vehicle cleared horizon at plus about a minute. A more northerly trajectory than what I’ve seen so far. I saw it all! Stage sep, stage clearance blast, fairing halves briefly firing, followed the second stage almost to the horizon when it cut off.

The search is on for the perfect fish scale, perhaps different fish for different applications... :lol:

Carbon nanotubes, Bucky balls and now Carbon Nano-Onions!

Carbon Nano-Onions are About to be a Big Deal

...it is the start of ski season after all.

This is the first year I can recall kinda wanting the time change. Still think it's dumb...but man it's dark in the morning.

I cannot help but wonder if the process is sensitive to scale.

It might be hard to scale up scale production. If you can control the way atoms interact at nano scales, it's almost like chemistry 2.0. Carbon nanotubes can conduct electricity at much lower resistances than copper wire and could be used for EV charger cords and long-distance power lines, greatly increasing grid efficiency. There is a lot of promise, some of which is being actualized by a decade or more of work in materials science.

There is an acute labor shortage here, even though the immigration door is wide open and 25% of the population are immigrants in Canada.

Insight: Once wary of immigrants, Canadian town sends out global labor SOS

Herouxville, a small town in Canada's Quebec, hit the headlines 15 years ago when it issued a code of conduct for would-be immigrants, warning them not to stone women or burn them alive, and to only cover their faces at Halloween.
