Mars rover captures first ever sound of dust devil

newtboy says...

WTF? The video is about a 10 second low volume sound recording, and they can’t even mute their stupid atmosphere music during the recording?
People are getting dumber by the day. Arrrrgh!

Uh oh. Fox guilty of “ spoliation”….intentionally destroying emails that had been subpoenaed….with malice and forethought.
This is going to cost them over and above the $1.6 billion they’re going to lose over slander and libel of Dominion.
It’s also caused a likely instruction from the judge that they intentionally destroyed evidence to hide their culpability.
That’s game over, once the judge orders they destroyed evidence to hide their guilt, that’s a finding they’re guilty.
Remember, this is not the only libel case against Fox. Murdoch testifies tomorrow.
Not a good time to be a righty. Everything that touched Trump is turning to garbage at an amazing rate.

For @bobknight33
Brian Prichard. Republican candidate for speaker of the house in Georgia, proponent of the big lie(s) of vote fraud in 2020 and 2022, and convicted felon thief and counterfeiter, voted in Georgia 9 times while on probation for his felonies….which is a crime, possibly 9 more felonies.
Every accusation is an admission.
Not the only Republican representative found guilty of vote fraud…as you well know.

Of course, since he’s Republican, he won’t see prison for intentionally fraudulently voting 9 times, unlike the Democrat who was told by the elections department and poll workers she was eligible, never saw or heard anything different, and was still sentenced to 5 years in prison for voting provisionally while on probation ONCE.

Of course, all the false cases in Florida have been tossed out as pure political theater since they were set up by the DeSantis government with the intent of using them as political tools….more politicization of the legal system by righties. That’s why he exempted from his sweep multiple right leaning counties missed by the hurricane but not ANY left leaning areas directly hit by the hurricane.

More vote fraud, which is 99.96% from MAGA righties….and their representatives personally. Hard to claim election security is a cause for you when you are violating election security constantly, sometimes to the tune of tens of thousands (like the actual successfully prosecuted mass ballot harvesting schemes….perpetrated by republicans in Pennsylvania, Florida, Texas, Arizona, and bigly in the state of N Carolina (Mark Harris during the 2016 general and 2018 primary elections whose campaign collected thousands of ballots and voted for himself) and elsewhere.)

There you go bob. Posted where YOU can’t just discard it again….accidentally of course.

Texas's new 31 billion dollar seawall to be constructed

newtboy says...

So…a state that denies climate change wants twenty billion of federal tax money (60 billion+ before its finished) to protect the tax exempt industry most responsible for climate change from the destruction is brings that they deny is real….all on taxpayer money, not a bit industry funded.

I grew up in Houston/Galveston. This is stupidity. There’s no way in hell they’ll ever stop hurricane flooding. The barriers would need to be 30 ft tall, not 5. They would also need to redirect numerous rivers that outflow through the coast, and find a way to remove unfathomable amounts of flood waters coming from land. I was there for Alicia, a relatively small hurricane in the 80’s, and all of Houston was 5 ft under water, with the bayous 40ft above their channels. That water flows into the Galveston area….behind these barriers.

This is a massive boondoggle that will never be built for dozens of reasons, but will still make numerous politicians and their families disgustingly rich, and may eventually partially protect some high value real estate, but never the entire coast. That’s today’s Texas. It bears noting, Texas is nearly $50 billion in debt with a crumbling electric grid, failing water system, no social services, and likely still $10 billion away from finishing their useless failed border fence….but plan to spend at least another $10 billion of state funds on this. How, exactly?

You mean away from sanity…his arrow always faces crazy. Like a wind sock that flies into the wind rather than with it.

Yes, I know what you meant…but it’s like when checkout people ask if I’ll donate my change to MS….I always say “NO! I’m against MS!”

surfingyt said:

You make a good point lol! We can use bizzaro bewb as a weather vane that points towards sanity.

Hey! Are you calling me a conservative?…or is reflexive partisan contrarianism proper and called for from liberals?
Are we not at the point where it’s safe to, without thinking, just take the opposite position to any “conservative” position and feel certain you are correct based on nothing more than the knowledge that the conservative position is always totally backwards and wrong?

A pillar of modern "conservatism" is reflexive partisan contrarianism.

Just a heads up….something screwy is going on with comments for me. On the recent comment page, 75% or more recent comments are just not there, and comment history now only goes back 1 page.

Edit: seems to be fixed now. Thanks!

It's just hearing this kind of rare feedback that keeps me motivated to keep at it.
