@NotAvgLiberal Maga or liberal, they are still family. Yes.

Question for Liberals - (Trying to prove a point) If you had a MAGA family member, Who constantly pushed their MAGA ideology on you, Who referred to you with the usual MAGA rhetoric of being a “Libtard” “Woke” “Soyboy” (Just to name a few) Now that same MAGA family member needed financial help… Would you help them?

@BarryOnHere Lulz. Sure bud.

Still together 50 years later. No scandals. No cheating. No drama. Just pure love.

@piyush784066 I want to play apex legends

Give me ONE reason you wouldn't buy this laptop..

@AsifAli_Haider Clearly ai slop.

Breaking 🚨 A Dubai plane carrying Israeli soldiers crashed into a residential area near Tel Aviv's airport, killing all the Israeli soldiers, according to reports. During the crash, Israeli media is claiming that the plane was hit by a fragment of an Iranian hypersonic missile.

@METAPCs 32 gb

How much VRAM does your GPU have? I'm tryna see somethin' 🤔 4 GB 6 GB 8 GB 12 GB 16 GB 24 GB 32 GB I have no idea

@kotosan_dayo MOS 8500

初めて使ったPCのCPU教えて欲しい！！！！ 自分はCore i7 3770

@nalinrajput23 Or they could simply have left the headphone jack in the phone. Just saying.

Apple made its biggest mistake when it decided to discontinue the iPod.

@AbakpaJob I heard they were planning one ten years ago.

can we please start a support group for procrastinators?

@honeymoon250 Without a doubt Ferris Beullers day off. The Ferrari is a dead give away.

If you know what movie this picture is from I will follow you?

@TheGalox_ I wonder how many they are going to sell at that price or are they going to need to drop the price again. I do love my surface laptop 7 though.

@securityweekly Did anyone ever even use cable select back in those days? I always had problems with it.

SATA has spoiled us...

@SaraDiscovers Even better

As a developer, which one do you prefer? Macbook or ThinkPad

@geekedout__ Seems like a touch ui on a device with no touch screen. Needed to move the mouse further than needed. Hated windows 8 for the same reason. And whoever at Microsoft thought it would be good for the server OS needs to think hard about what they have done.

@LogicSnse why bro

Tahoe users, do you miss the Launchpad?

@piyush784066 Still using one that's 8 years old and works fine...

never buy a 16GB RAM laptop in 2026. you'll regret it within a week

@MarchandSurgery It isn't realistic. But that is easier for the general public to understand vs showing them the relevant orbital mechanics.

I'm pretty sure the earth and moon will be moving over the 10 days. I'm hoping the NASA scientists built that into their plan. This model where the moon stays still and waits for us doesn't seem very realistic.

@SakshiSugandhi Depends on the system you are running it on. I switched back since I could never get sleep working.

Why people switch back to Windows 11? 847 days on Linux. Zero crashes. Still waiting for the problem.

@perrymetzger I don't think you are wrong, but that is semantics. They likely could do it but haven't yet. There is no way that this won't ever orbit. That is probably the smallest hurdle they have vs everything else they need to do to get it human certified.

In context, the claim was that the ship would be unable to orbit. They have demonstrated conclusively that it is able to orbit, by putting it at orbital velocity outside of the atmosphere. The rest is just a question of what trajectory they want to put it on, and is incredibly trivial given that they have demonstrated the ability to arbitrarily modify the trajectory. The claim at this point is like saying “you’ve only demonstrated the ability to drive from New York to Florida, I don’t believe you can drive from New York to Montreal.”

So, this prediction is already wrong, because Starship has already made it to orbital velocity, it’s just that the lowest part of the orbit, the perigee, was deliberately placed inside the atmosphere so if there was loss of control the spaceship would reenter at a known location because of atmospheric drag instead of potentially becoming a hazard. They could have slightly changed the trajectory in order to have the low point of the orbit above the top of the atmosphere, but they deliberately chose not to for test safety reasons. So this person is failing to predict the past, not simply failing to predict the future. Assuming they actually are some sort of aerospace engineer, this is a fine demonstration of the fact that argument from authority is a pretty bad way to reason.

@perrymetzger So it hasn't made it to orbit. The statement is correct.

It has not completed an orbit because they chose to re-enter the thing after less than a full revolution, not because they lacked the ability to put it into orbit. They demonstrated that they could reach orbital velocity, that they could precisely control the vehicle, and that they could restart the engines in space.
