You’re welcome? 🤔 lol

Dear God, you’re right…

It appears that they were indeed dancing. 😱

It’s a great photograph, but I can’t help but wonder if the photographer misinterpreted the situation. Perhaps it was more of a Dirty Dancing moment, and they were secretly practicing their routine for the big campground show… 🤔

Several victims have reported receiving death threats after their own banking information and email addresses were accidentally left visible in the same batch of files.

Of course not, it’s always been about the quick buck. It’s like watching telemarketing scammers run a business, if the scammers were stupid enough to shit where they eat.

Corporations have transformed a once enjoyable place into a dreary and unpleasant environment. I, for one, would prefer not to swim in the port-a-potty it’s become.

It probably all started when 7 ate 9.

In my mind, I rewrote the episode’s script. Essentially, Elon laid himself down feet first in front of a steam roller, after giving away everything he owned to fund Universal Healthcare.

So, they named a local elementary school after him, as it was literally the very least they could do after he was squeezed out like a tube of toothpaste.

As a guy with oily skin, I’ve found adding a pea sized drop of liquid Dawn dish soap works well for this.

They are cosmic time inferred from redshift, anchored by independently measured distances. Redshift does two things at once. It tells us how much the universe expanded since emission, scale factor then = 1 / (1+z) And it tells us when the light was emitted, because we know how old the universe was at each scale factor if we assume a specific expansion history. Sounds circular but it isn’t, because the expansion history is solved for by fitting many observations at once. So, the timestamps are emission time = age of universe at that redshift, and arrival time = now. These timestamps are inferred consistently across thousands of objects. Redshift itself does not tell us where along the path the stretching occurred. If most redshift had occurred early, the curve would bend the opposite way. So the curve only fits if expansion accelerated late, not early. The missing piece isn’t intuition, it’s realizing that distance measurements are the timestamps. (Wrote this in public with Siri, so feel free to ask or if there’s typos. People with inane conversations about salads lol)

It reminds me of 3D movies.

Think of redshift as:

“Total miles added to your car trip.”

But distance adds:

“How long you were on the road and how fast you drove at each stage.”

With only mileage, you can’t say whether you sped up or slowed down. With mileage and timestamps, the full story emerges.

No problem, being old has to have had some benefits lol. This was my shot.

They match the style of proprietary A/V control system ports used in 1990s conference rooms, Projector control interfaces, Crestron / AMX / Extron wall plates, RS-232 or RS-485 wiring inside custom housings.

They were used to connect Projector control panels, Motorized screens, Audio/video switchers, Touch panels, Old teleconferencing gear.
