If you are anywhere in the northern half of the continent, get outside and look up! Or better still, put your camera on a 10 second exposure and point it up.

On the Enshitification of NASA:
"Isaacman’s manifesto would radically change NASA’s approach to science. He advocates buying science data from commercial companies instead of putting up its own satellites, referring to it a “science-as-a-service.”"

I was hit in the face by a mustard-coated pretzel while working in a basketball arena and believe me when I say that it was delicious
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."

For $129, you can get an A.I. necklace that's ready to quip and comment on the IRL goings-on of your life. Is the idea behind these wearable companions terrible, the writer Amy X. Wang asks, or just the execution? nyti.ms/3WDlp4Y
