Astronomer hate this simple trick to ruin all observations.

Bringing back mammoths could have a sizable positive impact on arctic ecosystem AND climate change.

It sounds like a far fetched idea but this article is talking in details about this theory.

The donate and lobby so they can be above the law AND receive barrel of cash subsidies from the government

More specifically SpaceX got a contract to bulls the moon lander for NASA.

So SpaceX is going to land in the moon.

I would look into the Surfaces, you can find a cheap second hand one and install Linux on it.

Palm leaves ?

Yep, I think we pictures are becoming a valuable as text and it is fine, we just need to get used to it.

Before photography became mainstream the only source of information was written, it is extremely simple to make a fake story so people had to rely on trusted sources. Then for a short period of history photography became a (kinda) reliable sources of information by itself and this trust system lost its importance.

In most cases seeing a photo means that we were seeing a true reflection of what happened, especially if we were song multiple photos of the same event.

Now we are arriving at the end of this period, we cannot trust a photo by itself anymore, tampering a photo is becoming as easy as writing a fake story. This is a great opportunity for journalists I believe.

I really don’t have much knowledge on it but it sound like it’s would be an actual good application of blockchain.

Couldn’t a blockchain be used to certify that pictures are original and have not been tampered with ?

On the other hand if it was possible I’m certain someone either have already started it, it is the prefect investor magnet “Using blockchain to counter AI”

I’ve assembled a bed from Emma (German brand) that took me 3 days to assemble.

It was awful. It did not have instructions In it, just a QR code that redirect on a websitz with ALL the manuals. Then when you find your bed you have to naviagte between 10 different versions depending of the options you have, they all look similar but have different assembly.

Then when you finally assembled your first corner, you think it will be easy for the other 3 but no, they used a totally different assembly method for the next corner for no reason.

Instead of the 40 identical length dowel pins I had 50 pins in 3 different sizes, knowing that the longest don’t fit in all holes so if you only use the shorts one at the end you are stuck with the long one you can’t use.

…

This was pure garbage, IKEA on the other is so satisfying to assemble.

If the tech bros really wants self driving transportation we can give them that:

Self driving subway, goes 75km/h in the city center, fully electric, convenient, consistent, safe.

Boeing was the most expensive bidder for this program.

It is very possible that it happened the other way around already.

Lifev could have appeared on Mars when it was more hospitable and then a meteorite from Mars transported early form of life to Earth.

I lived for two years in Cameroon when I was a kid (around 4-5 years old), we were regularly spending time with another family who had kids and the same age.

Fast forward 15 years later, I’m 19 entering university in a totally new city in France. The first day every student is sitting in the amphitheater and they call the name of every student.

When they call the last name of the person close to me I recognize the name so I use it as an ice breaker to start a conversation saying that I knew a family with his name in Cameroon when I was a kid … He says that yeah he lived in Cameroon as a kid at the same time as I did, so here we go we found each other again 15 years later !
