That one is amazing! The operations room also has a good overview, though it's not nearly as in depth.

There are 16 thrusters on the service module and they only need like 4. One is malfunctioning. They're trying to diagnose the problem to fix it for next time since the service module burns up on reentry.

RCV at least allows for options, and it's pretty easy to understand. First past the post is literally the worst.

I hope they implement ranked choice, so many of the current problems are from the two party system which is inevitable from first past the post.

Renewables are cheaper per kwh, but it's yet to be seen if they're cheaper when you get to higher grid renewable percentages and need to involve massive grid storage.

With Russia wanting to stir things up, there are a lot more coup attempts recently since they hope they'll get support.

It's full of organics, I'm sure it'd be valuable on the moon for growing things.

Corporation controller also seems apt, since that's what their wealth usually is.

It'd need to be 13 to 80 times more massive to be a brown dwarf.

If it gained mass rapidly, most all the moons would likely destabilize since they'd have way too little velocity for the orbit they'd now be in. But if they sped up to accommodate, it'd depend on the density change of Jupiter. The fusion would push out material a bit, but the density would probably just increase because of the increased mass.

But if the density stayed the same, the radius would be 2.4 to 4.3 times larger than currently. With Jupiter having a radius of 70,000 km, that'd put it at 170,000 to 300,000 km radius. That'd put Metis and Adrastea inside 170, and Amalthea and Thebe inside 300. They'd already be heavily inside the jovian atmosphere, so they'd be toast. Io, Europa, and maybe others might also fall due to higher atmospheric drag at those levels.

I think the rest of the moons would be planets then, and the solar system would be a binary system.

Folds down to fit inside a 1kg filament box. Upsidedown let's the complicated moving bits be in the base where there's less vibration. Krylan3D originally designed this to easily take in a backpack back and forth from college, but is now hired and working on designing other 3d printers. So the community has made improvements and made it easier to make yourself. Parts cost about $550.

These mini castles were built all over the city.

The reasons for the construction of so many towers are not clear. One hypothesis is that the richest families used them for offensive/defensive purposes during the period of the Investiture Controversy.

Only a few survive to the current day.

Do y'all still think gme is undervalued? With an upcoming collapse of financial institutions with the MOASS and whatnot? Or you meming a long dead meme? I don't know what to make if this community.

Video attached I thought was a very good explanation of the whole ape mindset.

Great overview of the on set vfx workers upcoming vote to unionize. Dan was working on sets in those sorts of situations before, so he has a good understanding of just how hard the studios are pushing their crews. He mentioned often 12 or 18 hour days with only one or two days off in a whole month. No wonder the workers want to be compensated for that!

Here are a bunch of other visualizations: I don't know how artistic or data-driven some of these are, but they look very interesting. I think the nebula-looking one measures how often a point is visited?
