It's definitely not the only solution, assuming everything here's accurate. It's a start but there's so much that needs to be done.

They fall off

And in a particularly grotesque downside to spaceflight, after performing an extravehicular activity (EVA), more commonly known as a spacewalk, a surprising number of astronauts' fingernails just… fall off.

I thought that was rather interesting and I had never heard that before. Apparently most people agree with you and don't find it interesting. That's perfectly fine.

Coming up next on the headbanger's ball, SIMIAN PLAGUE!

I'm hopeful that the verification problems that allowed Theranos to happen won't be repeated but honesty... who knows

Sometimes it's pretty cool living in the future.

DECtapes all the way

I know quite a few tech oriented people and I don't know anyone who actually has the holy trinity of backups. I know quite a few who have physical backups at home and cloud though.

Do you not have anything in the cloud or do you use another service? I was using carbonite but I gave them up years ago.

From the article:

those who work hard will get ahead and that their children will be better off than they are

It really looks amazing

Arleigh Burke-class destroyer Wikipedia page if anyone is interested

Gotcha. That's why I missed it I typically don't watch the videos.

Mpox is not a great name. The virus is called the monkey pox virus so that's no good but the virus is also called MPV, MPXV, or hMPXV and those are okay. I think we should go with simian plague.

I didn't see any mention of dancing in the article. Where did you see that?

Riot is used twice in the article. Once in a quote and the other time it's called an "alleged riot" ostensibly referring back to the quote

I really hope they're able to scan more artwork in the future

I don't think so. Most popular culture gets utterly annihilated by history. It's a little unsettling how popular things can be and then absolutely forgotten.

They're secretly hoping some liberal dominatrix walks on them and beats them up until they give up their guns?

If you bought me a ticket on "Unkle Sal's Discount Cruises" I would not go. If you bought me tickets for Carnival Cruises... Yeah I'd probably go.
