I'd say qualitatively and quantitatively, this system is a scam. I get up and deliver by getting myself into interesting shit that matters no matter who's writing the check (excluding Raytheon or any of those other psycho motherfuckers).

Energy security is important, particularity environmentally compatible forms.

Medical services that don't bankrupt people are important.

Making processes easier is important even it comes to reducing/eliminating waste.

Even the seemingly mundane 'basic research' has a lot of interesting caveats buried below the surface.

Find what interests you in this one life you have, do the work to get there, make friends with people who want you to get there (and help them too).

Good luck, fuck capitalism.

Yes. How to keep the humidity sensor clean and accurate over time may be tricky though.

There are some fusion designs that use direct energy conversion.

Some work went into fission designs as well.

Even if you miss the meta humor here, the sudden change in speed/tone of the strip at the end is kinda hilarious in its own right.

Dunno, these 4 panels have so much interesting... Energy? At play beneath the surface. Starts fast, silly and familiar, you think you know where it's going mid stream, and bang! Hobbes says the thing that shatters the whole flow that you yourself bought into!

I just steal it.

Dude, seriously. The only time I genuinely had a problem with a server that being kind & trying to talk couldn't resolve, I politely told the manager I wasn't comfortable being there, paid for my drink and canceled the food order.

No need to make a big deal out of it, and once you get on a server's bad side, fuck it.

I've tried to kick the side rear window out in a taxi driver fainting situation, it's really not trivial, particularly if you're the only one in the back.

Anyone else hear these jets? They're zipping, and how.

E: Blue Angels doing some practice.

Anyone have input here?

I'm trying to decide which I like, yammie noob had a cool vid comparing the two with the xsr seemingly on top, but spec-wise, the z900 should be wild. I'm aware there are tune and exhaust kits to wake the undertuned z900 up.

I like spirited riding, but mostly on straights as I roar off to a campsite in the mountains. What do you folks think?

Google Pay alternative?

Hey there, I'm looking for an alternative to Google pay that'll allow me to use NFC payments etc. Thoughts?

I don't have a Google account, nor am I interested in opening one.

E: Just to clarify, the payment part would be convenient, more annoying is how I don't get to use a single place for my subway/gym/ticketmaster passes.

What a way to start the day. Had a spare, so it added a few minutes to my morning. Carefully cleaned the dust from around the plug, swapped, started and rode.

NBD, but what the fuck?

Exploring the city, it feels both dark and somehow inviting. New experience for sure.

Wish I could figure out how to attach multiple photos in voyager.

So, after watching "Plagues and pleasures on the Salton sea" (available on YouTube for free), I decided to look into what was happening to it.

Looks like we actually may help with restoration. But what does that mean, where are we getting the water for it? Will that money actually get to us?

Love this guy.

Some interesting ideas on reducing the time to decrypt certain ciphered info, in spite of axolotl's large key-size.
