Being honest here, as much as I loathe DeSantis and his ilk, I have concerns about the how vaccine passport programs would work and how they might create new methods of discrimination and division within our society. If the proof is an app, what about people who lack smart phones? Will this become one more…

”Taking a Bosch Shower

Hastily cleaning your armpits and perineum using low temperature plasma from a portable emitter rather than soap and water.”

The future’s going to be wild!

I don’t know... the whole story seems a bit fishy to me.

What about commerical/non-military applications? Soldiers ain’t the only ones who have to haul gear over rough terrain. And the noise issue might not be as much of an issue elsewhere. Or is it just economically unfeasible at this point for a for-profit* or non-profit** to invest in?

I’m sorry... what? “Our children will curse us because we wasted too many resources fighting a false narrative”? And what resources are we wasting on just what “false narrative” exactly? Yeah, there are a lot of false narratives out there and a lot of resources being wasted, but ensuring that future generations have a…

Clearly he means that drone ownership is an act of god.

Sandy was 3 years ago. Sometimes we don’t notice errors if they anymore aren’t underlined in red...

Sandy made landfall in 2012. By my math that’s only 6 years ago. I think there’s a lot of people out there for whom that was a catastrophe.

There was dancing on the White House lawn on VJ day.

Look at it this way... our enemy du’jour ISIS is going around stoning men and women who are, or merely believed to be, gay. Homosexuality is unfortunately a crime in many parts of the world with punishments ranging from prison to death. For the United States government to not only declare homosexuals as deserving of…

Not having any ideas what these numbers were going to look like I was surprised that the more than half of the deaths were white. However, I’m sure if you keep looking at the numbers different trends may begin to emerge. For example, almost a third of the black people were unarmed when killed while only ~15% of the…

Exactly. We don’t need to study the Earth. That was custom made for us and we should never question that. And besides... rockets totally show the rest of the world how impressive the American penis is. I mean... that’s just science.

That’s a potential ~30% reduction in funding. The National Science Foundation is asking for $1.365 billion to fund Geoscience research in FY2016. That’s a 4.7% increase from 2015 (which itself was down from 2014). Something tells me they won’t get it.

“What if.... Randall was wrong?”

Human. As much as I hate to say it, I relate to the human. It's like... there I am trying to go about my day, follow some sort of reasonable plan, engaging in pre-approved law-abiding activities, hoping for a low key 9-5.

You need it where you're going and/or where you've been. You often don't need extra changes of socks, shirts, toothbrush, etc. for a two hour flight but you might have those in your carry-on too.

Targeted Marketing. Imagine a dystopian not-so-far future where you can get 30% off at participating Wal-Marts if you let them read your dreams. They know your fantasies and nightmares, and see that every night you dream about owning a new Microwave with a popcorn button that won't actually burn the popcorn. …

What the heck is going on on the Mountain Dew label? On the can it looks like the Mountain Man is lining up the shot as the banker flees to the outhouse... and on the bottle it looks like he nailed him. Or maybe Sr. Dew just caught his brother/cousin in the hen house with his sister/wife and this... is how that…
