If she called from the same phone number… Then probably, yeah.
- Comment on Even if we found a feasible way through physics to travel through time, wouldn't it still be impossible due to the evolution of bacteria and our immune systems? 2 days ago:
We have time travel, we just need to jump forward in time a couple years and download the maps for where earth was throughout its entire history, then we can go back to whenever we want.

They have to. Because of the relative orbits, and rotation of earth, if they’re off by even a little, the pod might hit land instead, or be in a completely different location.
This would be very dangerous for the recovery.
It’s impressive, but also very necessary. Exact timing = exact landing location.
- Comment on According to an MIT study, relying on ChatGPT for stuff like essays and creativity leads to cognitive atrophy and such. What should I do when writing stories without ChatGPT and other AI chatbots? 1 week ago:
The VAST majority of the world do not use AI for anything.
It’s not where we are as a species, it’s where a small subset of people are.

Maybe the first movie they saw was Earth Girls Are Easy and they decided that this whole moving pictures thing was not for them, and just went back to books.

The spelling is actually also important for non-english speakers.
Alpha is hard to pronounce if you aren’t familiar with English ph, so it should be an F.
Juliet should have two T’s to ensure romance language speakers pronounce the T.
- Comment on How come they don't put out episodes of like Invincible, Simpsons, or whatever doing a side by side of the actor speaking into the microphone while watching what happens the cartoon? 1 week ago:
They record the audio, then match the animation to the voices.
They don’t watch the animation and try to match the voices, that only happens for a dub.

China has a station. There are others planned.
It’s likely it will be true, even if it’s not the ISS or a NASA funded station.
- Comment on If I was in the market for a good used car, which car would be the best to outrun the cops? 2 weeks ago:
At 180mph you only have to encounter one panicked bystander to cause a few deaths, including your own.
Even the best driver in the world shares the road with everyone else.

Did you accidentally time travel to the first bar and leave the glasses for yourself?
- Comment on Houston, we have a Microslop Outlook problem 2 weeks ago:
That’s what was intended, but it’s hard to argue that it was actually said based on the recorded audio.

It wouldn’t be hard to just remove the handle from a hardware store saw and replace it with this.
Might have to drill out the rivets, but that’s not too difficult usually.

If you need to spend all your time and money to attract someone, you won’t have any time or money to work on the relationship.
- Comment on Moon Mommy Milkers 3 weeks ago:
It does flip between a visualization and an actual spacecraft feed tho. So if you’re just seeing a CGI capsule, you’ll need to wait a bit for a real feed.
Curious if the visualization is done when the feed gets interrupted, or if it’s just part of the design.

- Comment on Odo should have had a battle form ala Hulk, or He-Man 3 weeks ago:
I could see him doing that to scare off someone/something, but not for actual battle.
If you could change into anything, including tentacle goo, then just making yourself big isn’t going to help much. Might as well just turn into a living straight-jacket and constrict as needed to subdue the baddie.

- Comment on If someone opened a store and just sold stuff at cost, which undercuts every other competitors by alot. Would this not for the big corps to come way down on their prices? 4 weeks ago:
Well, that’s just a regular business then.
- Comment on Me emitting 20KG of CO2 by using Google search to spellcheck individual words 4 weeks ago:
Tried that. Half the Internet is full of incorrect spellings, so a lot of times I do the search, I see it used that way a lot, Google doesn’t show a correction in the top, and still use the wrong spelling.
It’s not just regional spelling either, it’s just people using it incorrectly a lot.
Can’t use search to validate spelling anymore in unless it’s a really common word.

- Comment on I almost got to try my new quick clamp 4 weeks ago:
Classic mistake.
You need to label them as 1 meter pipe clamps so the work thinks it can get away with being 1.1 meters, but then at the last second you rip off the label and yell “SURPRISE, IT’S ACTUALLY LONG ENOUGH!”

Charcoal on day 3. Even IF it would have worked, it was far too late for charcoal at that point.
