I admire the ambition, here. I'll run a game if we get 9 to play.
Or I'll play if someone else has a burning desire to run it.

Thanks. It's hard to follow everything, but I try to keep up with as much as I can handle.

The fact that I love my work is about the only thing keeping me sane, lately. In a few more weeks, the...

For the sake of my own mental health, I have to pass on watching that.

I had a major panic attack when I saw the footage of Congressman Alex Padilla being arrested in a news conference. I know...

What Epstein files? According to our Attorney General, they don't exist.
Nevermind the entire Trump family and their cohorts campaigning on their exposure for years.
Nevermind the AG herself...

The absolute worst is that sitting Dems aren't even pushing back against any of this. If a Dem president did 1/10 of what Trump is doing, the sitting Reps would be up in arms bitching about it to...

The US is crumbling. Too much damage has been done. It's only a matter of time, now.
Too many support pillars have been utterly removed. Tens of thousands of federal employees have been fired....

Yeah. Legal Eagle is going at like 3x speed with his uploads lately.

The US Constitution and separation of powers are in the midst of a hostile takeover.

It was gabe. (Pretty sure)

Check out the pretty pics I got at work today.

It's a beam of electrons in a tube with thin Neon gas to show where the beam is.
I'm holding a magnet outside the...

Lol. I forgot about that Kanye POTUS prediction.

I hope wuf is doing well.

I was thinking the same.

Just a complete non-sequitur, here.

Judgements are like weather patterns. Like a cloud passing by. Being offended is part of being alive, but it's just a passing thing, not a permanent aspect of...

So the dark matter hypothesis is basically ruled out at this point.
The JWST has data showing early galaxy formation, and can plot size/distance (age) and show that these things just didn't form in...

I heard a solid take that Dem policies are what Rep voters actually voted for, but Dem politicians utterly fail to validate the struggle of daily life.

Rep politicians connect by acknowledging...

First time a Rep POTUS has won the popular vote in decades.

It's a shame that the power of the presidential office takes about 4 - 5 years for changes made to be felt on the ground.
Which means...

This site doesn't generate revenue.

It's a smooth transition. It's not like the only behavior near the visible spectrum is the inverse 4th power. Just that the inverse 4th power is the dominant term in a polynomial expansion of a...

Absolutely correct that the content and thickness of Earth's atmosphere gives our daytime sky it's cyan-blue color. If you're ever up on a tall mountain, the sky looks a deeper blue.

You can tell...

Photons are electromagnetic waves. The molecules are made of atoms, both are held together with electromagnetic interactions. Both will respond, re-orient themselves, absorb and re-emit...

Microwaves are only good because we need to get through the atmosphere, and Rayleigh scattering off particles is proportional to the inverse 4th power of the wavelength.
In more digestible terms,...

If we can build the array somewhere besides Earth, then the cost to get it in place could be much reduced. That is a long-future project, though. It assumes we could have manufacturing on the Moon...

Scattering is dependent on an inverse 4th power law.
You think inverse square is devastating to doubling distance? Halving the wavelength (doubling the frequency) makes it 16x more likely to...

How did you come to this conclusion? What were your inputs?

Things on Earth can be angled to point straight toward the geostationary satellite. The losses from the angle can be eliminated.
