Where the fuck is this "Epstein sex ranch" stuff coming from, and why is this the first I've heard of it? -
Roses are redViolets are blueCyanosis follows severe haemorrhagingAnd no amount of sugar will save you@cstross There's a real double standard here, because people can be really picky about WHICH severed genitalia are acceptable.
Get it right, and it's "sweet" and “romantic”. But make one tiny mistake, and suddenly the person you love most is calling you a “monster" and a "serial killer”.
I hate Valentine’s Day.

Feeling overwhelmed by all the things I need to fight this morning before a 6 hour drive across the north island of NZ for my next talk in New Plymouth.@sundogplanets Is CRASH intended to represent a realistic scenario (i.e. all satellites disabled by solar activity), or is it primarily a way to put a number on the stress?
It might be interesting to have a sort of satellite equivalent of LD50, i.e. a measure of how many satellites would need to become uncontrollable before a collision within some specified time period (say 1 year, or 1 month) becomes inevitable. Obviously a related metric, but maybe easier to interpret in terms of likelihood?
