@sullybiker @arstechnica @AirlineReporter Something to watch for as they continue as part of the Crew-9 rotation of space station crew... So far every astronaut who has flown the first crewed flight of a new spacecraft has been inducted to the Astronaut Hall of Fame after completion of their mission. Big feathers in their caps.
@AstroHawk @arstechnica @AirlineReporter@avgeek.social Oh it was absolutely the correct call.
@AstroHawk @arstechnica I felt bad for them in the sense that this program must have been professionally so exciting. Williams having to hang out on the ISS sounds amazing, but she's been there and done it. They must be privately disappointed they could not complete their program.
@LifeTimeCooking That looks great! I really like Lebanese style; such great vegetable dishes and white meats.
@dch Was it..2003? I think Germany and several neighbors had severe flooding and they flew in volunteers to help.
@dch Water where water isn't supposed to be is awful. I hope the city gets through without too many problems.
@dch That is going to cause some issues.

@yngmar I can still feel my back tightening when I think of a bolt just losing all resistance as the thread in the block gives up.
@yngmar ha also motorbikes!
@nyquildotorg She also does that thing where she blames Trump for Obama's policies, but this is normal now.
@yngmar At least they're not so fussy with alignment like a shaft fitting.
@yngmar It is one of those things where you think "It cannot possibly need this much force".
@yngmar Shaft couplers are just endless pain.
@yngmar I remember thinking what a massive hole in the hull it was, like a toilet fitting
@yngmar I helped someone with theirs and I remember a lot of hassle getting the transmission off the engine. Yours was a lot cleaner than theirs...
@yngmar "Changing this will be easy!) 3 days later..
@yngmar you just made me think of sail drive (shudder...)
FOSS, motorbikes, and photography.
