By Fenderputty Go To PostI’ve read speculation that people have tried to ram satalites into each other. Space x successfully reducing the cost of brining payloads into space by like 20 times will also help this.Would be a seriously bad idea as it could potentially make space impossible by removing the ability to safely escape the planet..

Counterpoint: create so much debris by knocking out everyone’s comm / weather / etc satalites so that we’re the only ones left with satalites and nobody can reasonably get new ones into orbit.
By Fenderputty Go To PostThis Lamb win gives me hope Cali can vote Nunes out
What about the absentee ballots?
By Smokey Go To PostWhat about the absentee ballots?"At around 5:30 a.m. ET, NBC News reported that it appeared that Lamb had won. The only outstanding votes are the approximately 200 absentee votes in Greene County, it said, and the provisional ballots that the district will count within the next seven days. Even with those added to the count, it does not appear that rival Rick Saccone can catch up. NBC News noted it was possible that there may be a recount ordered."
This is also how Trump officials will get away with all their kleptocracy and nepotism, because the next superdelegates-elected Democrat will also be all about that "look forward, not backwards" life.
B-b-but "blue wave," y'all.
Obama? Regrets? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.
Journalism in this country is beyond trash. Why don't they interview him and find out?

Dude is also a reserved police officer? Wtf. Shouldn't even be that. Much less an armed teacher.
Anyway:
I love these kinds of maps. Legends are key.

It's amusing to me that the GOP spent 10 million on a race (6 million more than dems?) that they're downplaying right now. Even more funny when you consider the district as it currently sits won't exist for the 2018 election. There's a reason they don't want those redrawn maps even if they still slightly benefit the GOP. If a +11R seat that went +20 in 2016 can flip, not much in the house is safe from a potential wave. R+2 lol
Spending all their money before the election calling Lamb an out of touch liberal cozying up to Nancy Pelosi, spend their time after the election saying Lamb ran as an anti-Pelosi conservative.

Out of interest, what was the turnover of key figures in the 18 months or so after Obama took office? I assume the number of sackings and resignations around Trump is well beyond what is normal.

Don't have 18 months, and Trump hasn't been in a full 14 months yet (3/20), but this was the YOY from WaPo

By DY_nasty Go To Postwhy pay for that when we got loads of expiring moabs, missiles, and artillery just laying around.But my dreams of recreating GI Joe: Retaliation!
plus railguns aren't even all that far away anymore either, and even in testing they're cheaper to maintain than any low orbit platform could ever hope to be

Decent article on Manafort. I follow this shit pretty closely and totally forgot he’s trying to have the whole thing procedurally thrown out. He’s hired another lawyer and seems to be trying to pick off what he can regarding charges. I think he thinks he can beat this. Which is better than fearing Russian death if you want him to eventually flip

There might still be criminal charges coming for Holmes.
But yeah, not sure how Martin Shkreli is in jail but she isn’t.
