Unfortunately he just passed away, was stabbed in Union Station, where he slept at least as of the time of the Youtube video. RIP Anthony. https://www.popville.com/2020/01/and-it-is-a-stark-reminder-of-how-much-homeless-youth-struggle-just-to-get-off-their-feet/

Ring user in DC. DC has a rebate program for up to $500 worth of cameras if you sign a form that you are willing to provide data to law enforcement (so I’d imagine that’s close to 100% of all Ring users in DC). We already know our data is public, but with the amount of violence and theft in this city, and lack of…
Where are these amazing bao and ramen locations? I may just stop on my next trip to visit my parents, as Harrisburg is halfway (stopped at Appalachian Brewing over the weekend)
I mean they don’t have meat, but Harrisburg is close enough to Amish country: http://www.dutchmanonline.com/amish-fry-pie-sampler/
Thanks for the insta clarification, hadn’t seen that. But yeah, saying someone is pulled out of bed at 6am by 6 armed police officers evokes them physically grabbing him at gunpoint, not him answering the door at 6am. Again, terrible with potentially horrible consequences had she not been on the list Seattle had, but…
1. This is horrific and more places like Seattle need to figure out policies to prevent this and also catch the white supremacists that do this.
... we may have done this at one point. And you know it was purely out of environmental concerns, not laziness.
Speaking of underrated beer, I finally tried one of the Budweiser Discovery Reserves, and it was remarkably decent. I bought a bunch for an Apollo 11 50th anniversary party I had and didn’t bother to try one until this weekend; they’re using a 60s recipe. If Budweiser always tasted like that, I might actually drink it …
The DC proposal is idiotic and I’m not even a scooter rider. There’s not good last mile transit in a lot of DC (or first miles... the trains are so unreliable, particularly on weekends, that it’s almost not worth trying), and it’s also not super safe to traverse a lot of DC at night by foot. Build protected bike lanes…
On the only Frontier flight I ever have taken, there was a woman across the aisle one row up from me who brought two “service” dogs on the plane. They rearranged seating to give the one extra seat on the plane to her. The dogs were 100% not service dogs, and were antsy and barking during the flight. The one she had…
He’s killing all committees, including one that safeguards nuclear material. It’s far worse than killing panels working on new tech https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-science-specialreport/special-report-inside-a-trump-era-purge-of-military-scientists-at-a-legendary-think-tank-idUSKCN1UP15P
PA is even worse. I’ve been to numerous places that won’t take a US passport, even though a foreign one is fine, including within the Philly Airport which is a logical place where you might not have your US driver’s license on you but could have a US passport. And I couldn’t even get my favorite bar to make an…
I’d like to add Kona Brewing Company and Red Hook for consideration as the lowest price per bottle acceptable beer. Oh, and Leffe now that it is mass-distributed by InBev!
They do have that option too, e.g.: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Space-Invaders-Counter-Arcade-Machine-Arcade1UP-815221026186/814896360
So you’re saying NASA is wrong? Tom writes more than enough on spaceflight that he should know this. And yeah, I fucking care because it is my job and this happens *all* the time.
UNCREWED OR CARGO. NASA style guide does not use manned/unmanned, because that is antiquated AF. “In general, all references to the space program should be non-gender-specific (e.g., human, piloted, unpiloted, robotic, as opposed to manned or unmanned). The exception to the rule is when referring to the Manned…
As someone who is seemingly allergic to certain types of hops, I wish at least ingredients were universally listed (I sneeze terribly after a pint of largely IPAs. It’s a problem because I love IPAs, and it’s only about 20% of the ones I try that do this).
Space industry person here. Bridenstine knew what he was doing with the invitation. As much as I disagree with the current administration on just about everything, I think that given our current dependence on Russia for rides to the ISS and historic space cooperation, giving Rogozin a temporary waiver is the right…
I’ve heard about vegan travelers who have only gotten a piece of fruit for a meal on long-haul international flights. While I can survive a vegan meal, I’m not sure I can survive on only fruit for 10 hours.
