NASA has awarded Bastion Technologies Inc., of Houston, the Center Occupational Safety, Health, Medical, System Safety and Mission Assurance Contract (COSMC)
@Susan ✶✶✶✶ Sorry, I just deleted a second posting of this link. For some reason Diaspora was hanging on me and didn't show me that the posting had completed, so it went up another time.
NASA Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy and Nicola Fox, associate administrator for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate, will travel to Mexico City on Sunday,
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer flying aboard NASA’s Terra satellite took this picture of two cyclones near Iceland on Nov. 20, 2006. Though
NASA’s Human Landing System (HLS) will transport the next astronauts that land on the Moon, including the first woman and first person of color, beginning

Integrate Nextcloud into your app with OCS API Viewer! 👩🏽💻
If you're building a custom app for your organization or developing a mobile app that stores documents, the OCS API Viewer makes it easier to build integrations with Nextcloud!
At our Hub 4 release, we announced that Nextcloud was working to support OpenAPI! This would result in the ability to automatically generate standardized, high quality API documentation as well as several other cool things.
Every time a new War Thunder update comes out, I think to myself: I'm finally going to progress a bit more into the aircraft research and then get side-tracked by tanks.
Truckful was revealed back in July, and the idea of it had me really intrigued and now they have a new trailer up for this driving action-adventure mystery game.
Ruins To Fortress looks like it could be interesting, a post-apocalyptic free-to-play pixel art open survival game. The developers have announced it's going to enter Early Access on December 13th.
I figure that as Gen-Z gets older this figure will normalize when they figure out that nobody makes "successful YouTuber" money, at least until Generation Alpha starts getting old enough and then the unrealistic expectation cycle will begin anew.
It takes an income of at least six figures to be in the top 10%, 5%, or 1% of earners. But the threshold to be a top earner is lower in some states than others.
I once had an online argument with a rich kid who was convinced *no one* made under $85k or so a year. She didn't believe me even when I posted a (redacted) paystub. Good times.
Hate to say it, but the Boomer number is the only one that's in touch with reality. The Gen Z number only makes a little sense if you are looking exclusively at the bay area or NYC.
I guess it depends on what "financially successful" means to you. To me, it means you aren't stressing about necessities and get to engage in certain luxuries like occasional vacations etc.
Older generations will never understand the feeling of not being able to buy a house in your lifetime, so yeah sorry that us "kids" have such high standards
I just checked, because I was curious to compare. In 2010 Daniel Kahneman and Angus Deaton did research that said after about $75,000 annual income, adding money did not make people happier. An online calculator says that in today’s dollars that would be about $106,000.
Global For perspective take a look at Tyler Disney's take on a Global Equitable Burn Rate of the global GDP. This is what each of us would have if wealth was distributed equitably & we kept using resources at the current rate. I would like to see what this same formula looks like replacing money with energy. Don't critique the formula w/o reading the article tylerjdisney.com/newsletter/20…
Excerpt from my upcoming book, chapter 6, on the global equitable burn rate: "Imagine you're in line at a buffet,” I say. “You're near the front of the line, because you're a white American middle class guy. The table is piled with food.
This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image features a spiral galaxy, named UGC 10043. We don’t see the galaxy’s spiral arms because we are seeing it from the side.
Oxygen Not Included is one of my favourites from Klei Entertainment, a space-colony simulation game that's Steam Deck Verified and has full Native Linux support.
Another year, another set of award shows. The Golden Joystick Awards 2024 have their results out now, and the Steam Deck OLED won Best Gaming Hardware.
Here we go again! Each week Prime Gaming, part of what you get with a subscription to Amazon Prime, add and remove various games you can claim to keep.
I have a lot of fun on Bored Panda. It can also be exasperating wading through AITA posts. I don't care about that stuff. So, your third-cousin twice removed wore a white dress to your wedding. I don't need to know!
While it can be pleasant to think that you and your household is an island, conventional wisdom and actual life experience would show that it’s simply not true.
and you can't "demand" democracy -- you have to work for it and participate in it, and holding up a sign saying you "demand democracy" isn't really near enough either.

Miss Ukraine at the Miss Universe competition. The competition does zero for me. However, I get a giggle out of the national costumes. This one looks like it belongs in a D&D campaign!

Growing US corporate economic control has impeded people’s capacity to self-organize. The time to rebuild community-scale economic institutions is now.
Two employees from NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia recently earned the prestigious Silver Snoopy award, an honor given to NASA employees
NASA has selected Sierra Lobo, Inc. of Fremont, Ohio, to provide for test operations, test support, and technical system maintenance activities at NASA’s
People, and lawyers (are lawyers people? Oops, I'm one) kinda forget Humpty Dumpy's question (made in conjunction with his recitation of Jabberwoky) about who is the master, the writer or the words?
For instance, when a networking company was informed that it had to have a written drug policy they wrote one, and it was just one word long:
Share.
My own website privacy policy was longer, but similar:
We participate in no so-called "private" privacy initiatives. Indeed we feel that leaving the protection of privacy to anything less than well enforced laws would be a farce.
The CaveBear site takes no active steps to protect your privacy. We collect the standard logs of access to our systems.

The CaveBear site takes no active steps to protect your privacy. We collect the standard logs of access to our systems.
We never have used the access logs for anything but our own administrative uses - primarily monitoring our sites to see whether someone has tried (or succeeded) to penetrate our security. And we have never opened those logs to anyone other than our own administrative staff, who, it may be said, tend to find the contents not merely uninteresting but downright boring.
At the current time the CaveBear site has no interest in using our logs for any other purpose.
At the present time we do not believe that we have any web pages that either put "cookies" on your computers or read such cookies that may have been put there by ourselves or by others.
So, if you are concerned about your privacy, you luck out - our practices are consistent with your interest in protecting your privacy. However we do not guarantee that our practices will not someday change or that we will not accidentally disclose something.
It is our recommendation to you that you take such self protections as you feel appropriate. And we further suggest that you do not look to protection of your privacy to come from the private sector - that sector's interests are not aligned with yours.
The CaveBear site strongly urges that you support national legislation and international treaties that define and protect your privacy
@Karl Auerbach This also just makes me laugh because it's sooo Australian. How many other countries would word their copyright notice for a professional publication in that manner?
