Why the gently caress do we need a Moonbase? There’s 10 Olympic swimming pools of non-replenishable ice. The dirt at a molecular level is razor sharp. It’s a boring death trap.

I will be honest if Tom Waits' "God's Away on Business" or "Everything Goes to Hell" had been the 5th song, i would probably have found the list pretty good.

Well, it's technically "possible" just insanely extremely unlikely. Now watch me roll 6s on this totally normal dice, 2 million times in a row.

Launching things into space is much easier from a lower gravity no-atmosphere enviroment plus the moon is thought to have abundant supply of helium-3.

The main reason to establish a moon base is so we can send ambassadors to bargain with the natives for helium-3 and land to build launchpads.

quote:

The European Commission has opened formal proceedings to assess whether X may have breached the Digital Services Act (DSA) in areas linked to risk management, content moderation, dark patterns, advertising transparency and data access for researchers.

On the basis of the preliminary investigation conducted so far, including on the basis of an analysis of the risk assessment report submitted by X in September, X's Transparency report published on 3 November, and X's replies to a formal request for information, which, among others, concerned the dissemination of illegal content in the context of Hamas' terrorist attacks against Israel, the Commission has decided to open formal infringement proceedings against X under the Digital Services Act.

The proceedings will focus on the following areas:
  • The compliance with the DSA obligations related to countering the dissemination of illegal content in the EU, notably in relation to the risk assessment and mitigation measures adopted by X to counter the dissemination of illegal content in the EU, as well as the functioning of the notice and action mechanism for illegal content in the EU mandated by the DSA, including in light of X's content moderation resources.
  • The effectiveness of measures taken to combat information manipulation on the platform, notably the effectiveness of X's so-called ‘Community Notes' system in the EU and the effectiveness of related policies mitigating risks to civic discourse and electoral processes.
  • The measures taken by X to increase the transparency of its platform. The investigation concerns suspected shortcomings in giving researchers access to X's publicly accessible data as mandated by Article 40 of the DSA, as well as shortcomings in X's ads repository.
  • A suspected deceptive design of the user interface, notably in relation to checkmarks linked to certain subscription products, the so-called Blue checks.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

I still sometimes think about how Elon tried to turn the booing around by doing a Naruto run pose on stage, then being confused when nobody laughed

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

wouldnt elon have artificially inseminated the puppets

John Oliver's depiction of Zazu in the lion king remake was an affront to god and doesn't even come close to Rowan Atkinson's version of the character, which is a timeless classic.
