Someone was wiling to pay Ish a ridiculous amount of money for traveling to a system with a far apart station…
Starting 0.14 ly away, this has been about the max speed I’ve dared to achieve. I’ve tested full impulse and made it to 1,600+ c, but didn’t know how the final brakign woudl go so just kept impulse at around 50%. Didn’t need to worry since there’s a star and it slows down your SC… but better safe than sorry.
And now, off to bed. Nighties lovelies!
Several men were in the locker room of the gym when a cell phone on a bench rang and a man put it on speaker and begins to talk. Everyone in the room stopped to listen.
Man: Hello!
Woman: Hi honey, its me. Are you at the club?
Man: Yes.
Woman: Im at the shops now and found this beautiful leather coat. Its only $2000: is it OK if I buy it?
Man: Sure, go ahead if you like that much.
Woman: I also stopped by the Lexus dealership and saw the new models. I saw one that I really liked.
Man: How much?
Woman: $90,000
Man: OK, but for that price I want it with all options.
Woman: Great! Oh, and one more thing. I was just talking to Jane and found out that the house I wanted last year is back on market. They are asking $980,000 for it.
Man: Well, then go ahead and offer $900,000. They’ll probably take it. If not, we can go to the extra $80,000 if that’s what you really want.
Woman: OK. See you later! I love you too much!
Man: Bye, I love you too.
The man hung up. The other men in the locker room were staring at him in astonishment, mouths wide open.
He turned and asked: Anyone knows whose phone is this?
I couldn’t sleep at night. I was only able to sleep for 10 minutes, which lowered my dopamine spike. Now I’ll try to go to bed again and hopefully sleep. Good night, lovelies.
I’m going to practice this with dedication:
If you decide to give it a try, I hope it may help you too, Yiole.
Good night, lovelies.
ALSO:
These last 3 days WoW was on trial mode for existing accounts. I logged in with my Tauren Shaman from 2004. There were much coveted items that I could sell on the Auction House for 10s of thousands of gold. But I didn’t. I’ll keep him as a monument.
Here’s a very jaw-dropping vanilla pvp video showing the power of Arms warriors:
That’s a interesting hack… will try to try it! (Although the 10 seconds will be difficult. Stopping my mind it’s like holding a freight train with your hands…)
And now i’m off to bed. Nighties lovelies!

BEST UPDATE EVER!

New York City, U.S.
sigh.
Time to go to bed, later than desired. Nighties lovelies!
My net connection is gone, I’m connecting through hotspot. The first day of falling asleep challenge worked somewhat ok. I think it is a skill to be mastered.
Good night, lovelies.

I’m not so sure about that, but it would make sense to have such a kind of intelligence mission…
Nonetheless, it could be investigated, if it is worthwhile that is.
To suggest false hoax is not going to give much credibility, and much less certainty, even if there was such uncertain credibility accredited and administered towards investigation of this.
Other scientific facts are analysed and worked on to work with global security.
Also, I was almost 12 in 1985, but 18.
Day 3 of the sleeping challenge. The first two days worked well with me.
Good night, lovelies.
I miss Erica’s face.

Collectively, the five engines now
produce an astounding 7.5 million pounds
of thrust meeting von Braun’s
original specifications.
@ 9:36
The four outer
engines are then fitted on gimbals
to direct their thrust for in-flight
course corections.
@ 9:44
It’s the nearest thing you can see to an explosion that
isn’t quite an explosion.
@ 9:50
It’s quite
stupendous to see something that is so
nearly out of control and yet being
controlled so precisely…
@ 9:58
It’s that
balance that makes you respect the
people who can design and build equipment
like that.
@ 10:05
Although the F1 Engines
will only burn for two and half
minutes, they are a feet of Engineering,
and, to this day, remain the most powerful

engines ever built.

9-Ton Slab of Glass Found in the Cave of Beit Shearim
Sergio & Rhoda in Israel
Published on Sep 17, 2017
@ 4:48
To produce such a slab of glass, they would need: 12 tons of raw material,
20 tons of fuel, an 1,100 degrees centigrade furnace that burns 5-10 days continuously.
@ 5:09
That’s funny, because we use an 1,100 degrees Fahrenheit furnace to melt aluminum,
although that, it doesn’t take 1 to 5 days to burn, and it does work instantly by then.
1,100 °Fahrenheit =
593.333 °Celsius
(rounded to 6 digits)
Conversion Formula
°Celsius = | 5/9 | * (°Fahrenheit - 32) |

Available in our lifetime is going to be extremely short if you consider our lifetime to be only 1 or 2 generations. If you do consider our lifetime to be only 1 or 2 generations, we might very well end-up being relegation to a life-form specie which does only in fact live for 1 or 2 generations.
In fact, our ability to procreate is one of the most important ability of men, and, apparently, we were put here on this earth to achieve that, since, if we did not, we would in fact be dead, and, also, as good as dead.
Additionally, to be in fact dead doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t die, but however, it does take into account the very fact that, indeed, we are meant to die, and, we also have to procreate to be able to continue to live.
Additionally, to go to another system to reach that system, and not come back, it also means that we have to be able to procreate there, which means that, the gravitational limitation will have to be overcome for us to go there.
One good solution to this is to create a system in which we can live, and which does create gravity.
It would have to harness the energy required to generate enough energy for us to be able to survive in space with the proper gravity that we need for our system.
