For the impeachment itself, assuming the Democrats all vote for it, Musk only needs to buy 9 republicans.

For the trial, he needs to get 20 republicans for the two thirds. It's not going to be cheap, but it sounds doable.

Which still has no material impact on his well being and keeps most people distracted from his behaviours from all kinds of inappropriate conduct at Microsoft to his efforts to rehabilitate Epstein after his first conviction, with a bunch of economic crimes and things that should be economic crimes in the middle.

It's eastern Poland tilting the scales to the far-right, despite all the nationalistic talk they are still pretty russified.

Like all dating apps they have a strong incentive to promote superficial short-term connections over long term relationships so they have repeated customers. The worst thing that can happen to a dating app is their users finding a long term partner.

A new study published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics suggests the satellites are emitting "unintended" radiation from the electronics onboard the satellites.

These low-frequency radio waves, are being picked up by telescopes designed to scan that frequency range. That's because this range also happens to be instrumental to deep space observations.

 

A Harvard behavioral scientist, who has extensively studied honest behavior, has been accused of fabricating study results — and yes, the jokes write themselves.

 

New evidence strongly suggests that OceanGate's submersible, which imploded and killed all passengers on its way to the Titanic wreck, was unfit for the journey. The CEO, Stockton Rush, bought discounted carbon fiber past its shelf life from Boeing, which experts say is a terrible choice for a deep-sea vessel.
