While the concepts outlined in the team’s new paper pave the way toward making travel through space nearing light speed a reality, constructing such an engine is likely something that will only be feasible far in the future, as the present state of technology would not allow for such a device.

If they made a documentary about the life of little Bobby’s brain worm, I might watch that. Provided, of course, that it’s also narrated by Woody Harrelson.

“I was surprised that there were not more objections,” from the defense team he added. “At one point, the court … objected, because there was no objection coming from the defense.”

Either they are bad lawyers or they were strategically withholding their objections in order to file the mistrial motion. I fully expect this to be brought up again in an appeal, assuming Trump loses the case.

DeepThought42 ,

As far as I’m aware nothing will stop them from trying to do that. It’s up to the judge (or judges if it goes to an appeal) to decide whether their argument makes sense. While I’d hope that a competent judge will see their shenanigans for what it is, I have no doubt that someone has made that strategy work at some point.

To be clear, I’m not a lawyer, so naturally don’t take my word for it.

Real shame they blew up those statues of Buddha. Those might have draw in some tourists. :|

The Island of Violent Basketball | Rare Earth (www.youtube.com)

Another video recorded on the island of Ebeye in the Marshal Islands. This video is on the topic of the islander’s affection for Basketball. In this video Evan is asking for people to send any surplus basketball related gear to the island for the benefit for the children. Details in the video and description.

PVC paneling for inside the home. Great. Just what we need. More plastic. :|

Time to put away the pitchforks. It’s not what the title and description might suggest. This is just an exposé by Johnny Harris on the history and overreaches of the intelligence apparatus here in the US .

Aside from the one line of text in the description, at no point does the video attempt to repudiate the great orange troll.

The title and description were taken direction from the YT video by OP. I suspect that they were intended to lure those on YT who might be more sympathetic to the idea of a “Deep State” as expounded upon by those on the far right in hopes to enlighten some about what the real deep state looks like. It’s fair to say that Lemmy, at least this instance, tends to lean the other way, so perhaps a different title would have been more appropriate here.

I wish the media wasn’t so focused on stuff like this. It’s only feeding their egos and driving them to even further to out compete each other in the worlds biggest a-hole contest.

During the course of the investigation into the shooting, deputy Herandez resigned from the force.

Good. So now maybe they should look into their hiring and retention policies to ensure this doesn’t happen again.

DeepThought42 ,

The Supreme Court is the final appeals court, so it makes sense that they can be asked to review cases like this. However, in this case I certainly hope they do the logical thing and pass on hearing this case since the appeals court clearly got it right.

DeepThought42 ,

They have to know that if they reject the sound logic of the lower courts then their heads could be literally on the line, if not from the current president, possibly the next.

Good to be reminded of this again, thanks. I just wish that it didn’t feel so … relevant.

Good news it seems, but we’ll have to wait to see what the SCOTUS says.

There are also no toilets yet on Mars either, so it’s probably just as well.

Here's what a random person on the internet thought of The Outer Worlds (lemmy.world)

I played the Steam version of the base game, with no DLC. I did not play the Spacer’s Choice “remaster” as it has a reputation for being broken and poorly put together. I played the game to completion on normal difficulty, completing most of the side quests, spending time with all my companions, and trying to get the most...

DeepThought42 ,

The Outer Worlds has always struck me as something of an underrated game. I certainly liked it enough to play through it three times; once just the base game and two more times with the DLCs. I do agree that one of the highlights of the game are the companions. They were all unique and it was fun to pair up different companions and listen to their banter. Well, except for the robot who had fairly a limited set of lines.

I will say the DLCs added a lot to the game. I recall being mildly disappointed in how brief the base game was but after adding the DLCs it felt a lot more fleshed out. Not quite like a Fallout game, but enough to satiate.

But then they find that by occupying that country their new home is no longer any better than their old home, so then they have to attack another country to find a better home.

It’s been my experience that sometimes turds unflush themselves.

Well that was a bit of an unexpected roller-coaster.

Besides some of the other good points brought up here, I’d like to say that it’s because communist countries typically were/are anti-religion, so it makes sense that religious leaders in capitalist countries would oppose any form of government that seeks to limit organized religion. So, they support capitalism because it’s the opposite of communism.

DeepThought42 ,

Just finished Dishonored 2. Yeah, I know I’m late to that party. It was on sale so I thought I’d give it a try. It was OK. Seemed a bit derivative, perhaps a bit too similar to the Bioshock games. It was also tougher than I was expecting; particularly once I started trying to be stealthier and to get the no-kills checkmark at the end of each level. Needed lots of save-scumming and still didn’t manage to no-kill all the levels in which I made an attempt at that. Ending was a bit meh, despite having low chaos at the end. Got my money’s worth though, so I can’t complain too much.

As disturbing as this was to read, it was nice to know there were still some honest and clear-headed people working in the government at the time this shit went down.

Musk should sue himself then. Seems like he has done the most to drive away advertisers.

Good, but unnecessarily long video. There were some funny bits and good examples, but it dragged on and more or less devolved into a rant video.

The correct assertion that AI doesn’t really (currently) exist could have also been better explained. Good examples of why that is true were talked about, but not in service of reinforcing that statement. Instead, the assertion was used to punctuate the examples. So good examples and correct points, but it feels like the argument could have been better made.

Tourist who allegedly carved names into Rome’s Colosseum says he didn’t know the ‘antiquity of the monument’ | CNN (www.cnn.com)

The tourist who was filmed apparently carving his name into a wall of Rome’s 2,000-year-old Colosseum late last month has sent a letter of apology to the local prosecutor’s office, his defense lawyer told CNN on Thursday....

They are either profoundly ignorant or a damned liar. In either case, it doesn’t make them look good.
