Kids this age are able to pexress what they want. While he probably didn’t at 4, it’s possible he agreed or even asked for the last ones he got.

I guess he had more than one pair and he could have been asking for the last ones.

Being proud of your independence and difference is bad advice? What’s your world like then, submitting and following others?

Did you try to teach him to be proud of his independence and differences? Maybe you can work with him on nice come backs against the teasing.

In case you are asking seriously, https://www.lib.berkeley.edu/about/news/van-Gogh-ear

The fact that we can’t see his left fin is a strong indicator.

When your family is so brilliant they die from it.

I was surprised so I did the computation just to resolve the disk of Betelgeuse at 550 nm, and I found a telescope of 2.8 m, that’s definitely already doable. We already have 8 m in one piece and 10 m segmented, JWST is 6.5 m segmented. The ELT is planned to be 39 m for 2028. So this star is closer and bigger than I thought.

And these are the images we have from one of the top imaging instrument SPHERE on the VLT in 2019. It’s precise enough to show the change of shape due to its variable star type.

It would be the size of the telescope’s diffraction artifacts probably. Meaning the shape you see on the picture is not related to the size of the star but only to the physical limits of the optical instrument. This diffraction pattern is proportional to the color your looking at and inversely proportional to the size of the telescope primary mirror. The bigger the telescope primary mirror, the smaller the diffraction pattern and the more chance you have that this artifact will not completely hide the object you are looking at. I didn’t do the math, but I guess to image the actual disk of Betelgeuse, the size of the telescope you need is probably still science fiction, even with interferometry.

A PE teacher got absolutely wrecked by a former Olympic sprinter at a sprint competition.

What about when you know how to do it, and you will be happy to have it done, but you know it’s going to be annoying, and you’re going to hate it, so you push it back as much as you can.

It’s Falkand now.

Obviously not great if it’s punitive, but if it introduces new creative gameplay or story branching, it could be cool.

4chan in the past years was mostly known as a far right shithole. But I think 4chan had more than that, they also had more progressive hacktivism like Anonymous and they produced a lot of historical memes for the internet. I hope we can have some real historian work that highlights the good and the bad from it and not just its sad ending.

They got hacked, the data and source code was leaked.

It does hijack your cellular machinery to mine its own building instruction hashes, doesn’t it?

There are a lot of species that we made disappear in the last 150 years that could be beneficial to restoring current ecosystems.

Bringing back species that disappeared because of humans and restoring ecosystems are possible ones. Jurassic Park is another.

It forgot the server logs that will never be read with no proper retention strategy.
