The impact of our cars, though significant, is far outstripped by global shipping (those container ships aren't carbon-neutral), power generation (EV cars gotta get their power from somewhere), or the simple burning of rain forests to make room for cattle or crops.

It takes energy to smelt steel and aluminum and build a car, or to mine Rare Earth Minerals needed for the latest tech.

Driving and old car that you maintain, repair, and keep out of the junkyard is far more environmentally sound. So far. Hoping that balance will change in near decades.

And in the pilot of Firefly, during the Battle of Serenity Valley, the cannon that Malcolm Reynolds briefly mans bears a Weyland-Yutani logo.

Predator, Aliens, Blade Runner, and Firefly are all in the same Universe.

It's the budget for the earthbound scientists who will be handling the geology side of the mission. The astronauts can't know everything -- this is their expert ground team for one part of the mission.

"Oom," I say, "Oom." Good to see the cDc putting out software again; the name is a wonderful play on the words "veiled" and "valid." I'm excited to see what gets built for Veilid after details of the protocol are re-veal-ed at DefCon. ;-)

Another thief stole all of the toilets from the station. The police have nothing to go on.

One wonders when His Royal Doucheness is going to invoke Prima Nocta.

Just for a bit of perspective -- Scary hacks like this happen all the time in the for-profit corporate world, too. They just don't tell us about it. It will continue to happen as technology constantly grows and evolves.

Praise to the Admins and Devs who play this constant game of whack-a-mole!
