It won’t, but it might produce mediocre drivel at low cost, which is more profitable than paying a team of creatives to make something actually good.

This is slightly concerning. Satellites don’t tend to explode on their own, but it is a Boeing design with a history of leaky propulsion, so who knows?

Such a shame, I was really looking forward to this based on the teasers shared on the game’s Discord server. I guess it’s just like big publishers to put more effort into marketing than development.

Space Cadet Pinball is available as a Flatpak? There is still beauty in this world 😭

Let’s not body shame when we can brain shame.

That’s not completely accurate. As the NASA link you shared explains, the normal orbit for the ISS is relatively low at 400km, where atmospheric drag and orbital debris pose a risk. The article agrees that the station could be raised into a graveyard orbit (where it could safely remain for several hundred years; this a standard way to retire space hardware), but this would require more delta V than for a controlled deorbit. In turn, this means a more expensive booster vehicle and mission.

So, the ISS could be safely preserved in high orbit, but no one is willing to pay the price to move it there. This makes me a bit sad, as it means the most expensive and impressive engineering project undertaken by humanity to date will be destroyed.

So, I guess any kind of preservation is unlikely. I was hoping the ISS would be put into a graveyard orbit, so it could be kept as a monument, but there doesn’t seem to be the will to do that. It’s the end of an era, but hopefully that means a new chapter in space exploration is starting.

I’m really tired of republicans calling anything democrats do “radical” or “extreme” when they’re just pushing for the most mild stuff. I would die for some actual radical left ideas.

Has this kind of ridiculous overvaluation happened this frequently in the past, or is this a modern phenomenon?

I highly reccomend using Spotube as an alternative.

All is well friend, that’s just the mouse battery 😁

I moved the main panel to the left, and added one to the top and filled it with applets. I tried to keep it looking as sleek as possible. Spent more time adjusting colors an spacing than you might expect lol

I’ve been using Pop! for my newest computer but I’ve been experiencing frequent freezes. From my searching, it seems like a common problem, but I haven’t found a solution.
