A lot of weird and bad takes on nuclear power on the skyline recently. The trump regime won't be putting a reactor on the Moon, considering its focus is on dismantling national institutions and gutting science, that's just a distraction. But fission reactors will be vital for space exploration.

for fuck's sake, people, criticize the "lunar nuclear reactor" idea based on how there's no need for a reactor without an already-existing base or all the other reasonable flaws, not "omg nuclear winter" or "this is just like Space: 1999"

thank you 🙏 i shall check it out

i haven't heard about that... it sounds interesting though. do you have any links for further reading?

"The Stellar Epoch in the Evolution of the Galaxy" by AV Tutukov. Various graphs depicting star formation rate, height of the galactic disk, mass of gas in the galaxy, the galaxy's total luminosity, the rate of supernovae in the galaxy, and the relative abundances of oxygen, iron, and helium.

star formation is kinda expected to fall off a cliff by ~1,000 Gyr so maybe it's more like 14 year old kid vs, idk, the Byzantine Empire (i'm not a big history knower). but still...

it still fucks me up thinking about just how early we are in the stelliferous era of the universe. 14 year old kid vs the Middle Paleolithic

they could save some time too by just pointing at their destination and going straight there with no regard for the earth's curvature

The BBC News website has pages & pages of coverage related to farmers protesting inheritance tax, including events where only a few hundred turn out.

In London yesterday 100,000 people marched for trans rights, and nothing.

Imagine if it was 100,000 anti immigrant activists, they'd cover that.

OSA is gonna make us lose access to fucking wikipedia

Damn, Hulk Hogan *and* the guy who dragged his whole family to Russia to escape wokeness, today is a good day for horrible men to fuck off this mortal coil

Hey guys, so remember how I wrote about the four stages of how P25 and Republicans want to enact anti-trans censorship?

This signals that we have FULLY entered Stage Two: We lose the trans internet. Stage One is over - they've already gotten there.

Please pay attention to this now.

Games are not a service. Games are an artform whose works are being deliberately held hostage by their owners. The business model of AAA publishers is nothing more than cultural vandalism, and in a medium that already severely struggles with preservation it's nothing short of despicable.

The image depicts the hypothetical planet Theia, which was invoked to have collided with Earth to form the Moon when the Solar System was young. The planet is depicted as a temperate world with volcanic islands and even huge magma plume uplifts under the thick, hazy atmosphere. Also in the image is a fictional depiction of the collisional history of the inner planets; the top of this diagram shows the surviving planets: Mercury, Venus, a fictional planet, Earth, Theia, Mars, and another fictional planet. The two fictional planets would later be ejected.

Theia: The Plot Device

Theia is commonly depicted as a generic airless planet with lava pools on its cratered surface...essentially the popular, outdated depiction of how Earth was when it was young. Here's my take on this hypothetical planet.

still stuck in the writing dimension. i think soon i'll hopefully draw a bit

They should invent girls with antennas

honestly yeah i think i agree with this

I don't want my chat client to give me pop-ups telling me to "earn orbs" by "completing quests." Just shut the fuck up and send the messages.

Fusion energy is never going to happen, for the simple fact that even if it becomes feasible it will still be worse than fission energy.

AGI is, well, lol, still not happening any time soon.

lets try our best this week

Side view of a spacecraft vaguely resembling a rolling pin. At the front end is a circular shield for protection from interstellar micrometeoroids and an array of rocket engines that fire slightly out to the side so as to pull the vehicle without blasting it with their own exhaust.

And now for some actual original content for a change ^^; - I've been continuing to iterate on my starship design and think I may finally have all the bases covered:
