Also the ability of mirror neurons to watch someone do a thing, then conceptualize and execute it with your body is extremely interesting.

Reprocessing of old pits.

It's more a matter of precision, purity, infrastructure, and staffing.

And you can have them effective/guaranteed to work, safe/without personnel or environmental contamination, or cheap. Pick two.

I just wanted to add some context for one of these bullets.

The US is upping the amount it spends on nuclear weapons maintenance and production because China has reentered the game as a major player. They'd been stable at 300-350 warheads for decades but is expected to ramp up to producing 100+ per year by 2030.

So one major adversary has just been replaced by another. Everything old is new again, including the cold war arms race.

The ancient wonders series or whatever they're called is wild too. It's like some kind of unified conspiracy theory adventure.

You see, no one actually wants a digital currency. There have been several (nano was my favorite) that functioned especially well as a currency, because it used very little compute power to perform or verify transactions.

But a currency is stable. Which means you don't magically make money by holding or trading it. So it doesn't get attention, and therefore doesn't get widely adopted.

Everyone likes Bitcoin because it's speculative digital gold.

"It was about States' Rights!"

"Yeah, a State's Right to what, exactly?"

Every time I look at Matt Gaetz, all I can see is if Butthead (from Beavis and Butthead) were a real person and grew up rich.

I'm just trying to pay for housing with my meager allotment of 80 hash browns per week

My wife has an iPad and one of the things I hate the most is that you can't install adblock extensions into Firefox on it like you can on Android. Which is a thing that has made using the browser on the phone wayyyy more enjoyable.
