Doing something that demonstrably doesn’t work isn’t how you get what you want. If you want an option besides Democrats and Republicans, voting for someone else where those two options have a lock on winning does nothing besides vent some spleen.
I’m not saying doing nothing is the solution, or even voting for the two main parties is the solution, but doing something that has been shown to be completely ineffective is not the solution.
Isn’t it at meme levels when YouTube games have their screen go black and they mention Nvidia crashing?
The trick is to not show discomfort after slapping your testicular tumors.
I’ll give you an upvote just for knowing what type of gem it was. So many South African diamond mine comments smh.
Because the way to get rid of angry, desperate people is to kill them. A better way is to get rid of the desperation, which usually gives them something to lose, which gives them less desire to engage in actions that will lose them. That’s why the War on Terror ended in a withdrawal, and not a victory. Sure, education and economic improvement isn’t very fast, but some governments seem to be more than okay spending a couple decades doing something different.
No, this won’t get rid of all of the terrorists, but how many of the wealthy, educated, married extremists with families are actually willing to risk their lives for their beliefs?
Like most questions that devolve to, “What would the world be like if people stopped doing bad things and just <insert wish here>?” pretty great. (The wish in this case is help each other with raising children.) Now if only we could get people to stop doing bad things.
They stopped putting out new versions due to completeness. j/k, but I’d love to try out a GURPS campaign.
This is about rocket launches, not satellites.
…SpaceX is part of the program to get back to the moon.
*Probably typed on a smartphone, one of the most technology-dense products ever created by humanity, currently used by over half of humanity.
Tell that to a bronze age engineer, and they will probably respond that those two are closer to each other than they are to his best efforts. And he would probably be right.
Or an r in wash. Warsh, or Warshington.
It’s generally only l before m, and b after m. So no l sound in salmon or calm, but there is in solve. Oddly, there’s no l sound in salve. Likewise, there is no trailing b sound in bomb, dumb, or lamb. Of course, it’s important to remember this is English, where the exceptions outnumber the rules, which is expected when you mash three languages together with a sprinkling of the rest of the languages.
There are a handful of commercial sailing vessels for both cargo and cruises, although they are hard to find. Here is one I found that still seems to be in service. A fairly complete list of sailing vessels can be found here. Some that are listed as currently sailing actually aren’t, but it’s still a place to look. The Royal Clipper seems to do the occasional transatlantic cruise, so that could be relevant for the OP. I didn’t take price into consideration, they could be quite expensive.
While I get that it’s not a small feat, and an unusual finale for space flight, this isn’t much higher than some skydiving packages you can book today. Still pretty ballsy for back then.
You were added to a group chat that was described to you as a way to make sure everyone got home safe. If you didn’t want to be a part of it, you could have easily waited until everyone checked in, expressed your happiness that everyone was safe and removed yourself from the chat. If you didn’t want another group forming without you being able to keep tabs, that obviously wouldn’t work. So I have to wonder about your motivations when you don’t take the easy and obvious way out.
Which is the point. Voting third party won’t fix the system, certainly not at the presidential level. So work with what you have now, and work towards something better in the areas where it’s actually possible.
