  • I am well aware that Apollo 10 did not deliver shitbags to the moon.

    But 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17 did, if they defecated at all on the moon, leave it behind per checklist. There are 96 inventoried bags on the moon, but it is not recorded which, if any, are filled with what. It would have been easier to avoid on the earlier missions, which spent less time on the surface.

    At least one astronaut claims he avoided a bowel movement for the entire mission duration.

  • Both git and svn started around the same time, in or about 2004.

  • I'm now imagining a guy going in to pick up a head, and coming up with nothing but wig.

  • Yes. I too would like to unsubscribe from the Baker Mayfield school of international relations.

  • Facts about this:

    1. Bags, with contents, were left on board the lower descent stages of the lunar modules. They remain on the moon to this day.
    2. There was at least one incident on Apollo 10 where feces escaped and was floating around the cabin.

    Part of the radio transcript:

  • The Act itself requires a Presidential proclamation before the powers can be invoked.

    1. The judge was really pissed off. He is requiring sworn affidavits that prove that everyone on plane #3 has some valid basis for removal that is not AEA.
    2. The government argues that planes #1 and #2 departed before the written order was entered (judge gave the oral order in court at around 6:45, written order about 45 minutes later). They listed some cases about validity of oral bench injunctions.
    3. The government is pissed off with the judge. They filed these really extraordinary emergency appeals in the middle of the night in the weekend. Normally, you can't appeal a TRO, because they're so temporary. They wanted the appeals court to judicially bitch slap the district judge, but that didn't happen. The appeals court is instead going to consider the appeal on an expedited, but still normalish briefing schedule.

    Overall, some very exciting litigation filings going on in all of these cases, and a bunch of pissed off judges.

    You can check out the Venezuelan case here and here. And Mahmoud Khalil's habeas petition here, where Khalil's lawyers just seriously impeached the credibility of Joyce's sworn affidavits.

  • The entirety of Indian Removal (aka the Trail of Tears) was ruled to be illegal by the Supreme Court, but it still happened anyway.

    80,000 non-alien US citizens of Japanese descent were sent to concentration camps for years, under this exact same Alien Enemies Act. This was also illegal (Ex Parte Endo).

    Somehow, "American Democracy" and "Constitutional rights" are deemed to have survived those incidents.

  • Apparently dumb enough to take a vacation to Puerto Rico, which is US territory but outside the customs zone.

  • For any non citizen, non LPR (green card), the border official at the desk holds the final authority on whether to admit. This is true with a visa or without one. US visas (not green cards) can be effectively cancelled at the border with no notice.

    All visitors to the US, visa or no, must overcome a presumption of immigrant intent at the border interview each time they visit.

    Unfortunately, the whole story seems to be legal. I would recommending thru hiking in some less shit hole countries.

  • And now Trump has been sentenced, and the sentence is... Nothing. So Trump has completed all parts of his sentence, and can enjoy restored voting rights in many states on that basis as well.

  • He was on the ballot in Oklahoma once or twice on the Libertarian party ticket.

  • Hahahaha, "The King makes his own decisions..."

    In their constitutional system, I'm not believing that for a hot second.

  • The worst is when one of the two questions is an open problem.

  • In reality, there are all sorts of unique requirements to be an air traffic controller, but I don't think "college degree" is one of them.

  • These Vital Farms eggs come with an insert with a QR code that allegedly shows you pictures of the specific farm your eggs came from. I've never bothered to look it up though.

  • At least it's all on the far side of the garage door thingy that everyone has to roll under at the last second.
