I thought it was investing in my future (buying mutual funds).

Last one I did showed up on my account the same day.

Put it in retirement accounts.

NASA has been doing the sterilization I listed above for decades now; it’s not new.

Can you give some examples (preferably with references) of where NASA (or ESA, etc) have avoided areas due to fear of contamination?

Gonna be real surprised when the other side bursts out for behind that door. /s

That’s why this is done: https://www.nasa.gov/ames/space-biosciences/planetary-protection/

I realize you were probably talking about visiting other worlds in person, but we would probably still have unmanned missions there first.

Sounds like a great cause for a law suit to me (not protecting a student). And we all know how much Louisiana cares about that.

charged with ten counts of unlawful dissemination of images created by artificial intelligence

I’ll bet that has a penalty of like $1.25 total.

Back when I was in school, they would have expelled him and gave her a high five (and told her not to get caught doing it again).

Her brothers or cousins might very well pay him a visit also.

Entrance is no longer lost - it was recently found in the pyramid 😉.

Didn’t mean to offend you (or anyone else).

I work in IT too (Windows) and have admin rights on my workstation. Even though I have the power to install any software, it’s against policy to do so (and technically that’s a good policy).

Also, I don’t like the idea of anyone/anything but me having my passwords. I go with 2FA if something is important/certified based 2FA if it’s really important.

Makes you concentrate on driving! /s

Yeah, just tell your work IT staff that you need admin rights to your workstation so you can “install the software you want to” (that they don’t supply or support or update).

See how well that works. /s

Post the photo to every social media site available - so everyone knows you are safe and secure!

I was at a railway museum once when some boy scouts were there for a visit.

The museum staff were very careful to tell them to never flatten coins on a railroad track (it could derail the train!)

Yeah, and doing nothing could too (i.e. lack of maintenance).

All I can say is: Take my money!

How stupid of WF.

Who can forget/remember these

Party on Garth

This is my life.

I’m familiar with the saying you site.

But “a beaver” implies one beaver; “beavers” would imply multiple beavers were responsible.

So, like the same beaver both times?

Just saw a friend that is currently at Uni and asked them how they do it now (draw and dimension all at the same time). Small victories.
