As part of the latest Windows updates, Microsoft fixed the broken drag-and-drop on the address bar, finally allowing you to move folders and files to a folder or few above the current one (Microsoft calls that "breadcrumbs"). When the new features are just old broken features coming back

Cell by Stephen King?
Nope, nope, nope.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

Which reminds me I wanted to read Cell. Any good?

With a billion chicken pecking at screens, there will always be some that beat the financial analysts.
Every year there are at least a couple of weather soothsayers that can boost: Look! That is exactly what I said in March!
The soothsayers are new every year, only occasionally is there a return. You certainly see the same wiseman ten years in a row saying "Look what I said!". (Unless, of course, if his prophesy was like "We will have some sun and some rain, and there will be wind on the coast.")

An adjustment to the famous Drake Equation could radically refine estimates of intelligent civilizations in our galaxy. Drake was an optimist?
|
|
|
|
|
But just in case the updated formula is wrong, we've still got water...
|
|
|
|
|
Just remember, none of the terms in the Drake equation are zero or we wouldn't be here. On the other hand, maybe one of them is zero because as a species we certainly aren't intelligent.

This brings to mind graffiti:
Q: Is there intelligent life on Earth?
A: Yes, but I'm just visiting
All terms of the Drake equation are therefore still non-zero.

I can't remember the man's name. Black guy went on Joe Rogan and said a bit of crazy.
But poking some of the info, he's one of the only other people I've heard say that 0 does not exist. That's been my tinfoiliest of hats theory for a good bit. Even further, integers don't really "exist". Some cultures reflect that. All apples aren't the same, so basically, what's the point in counting them. At least, I think that's their take.
If the perfection of integers is an abstraction that isn't actually any part of the observable world, I think it's possible they're both the best and worst things mathematics has. Like it tangled itself up there early on and that's limited us or something.

The Drake equation is made up with no supporting evidence. We have a sample size of one.
|
|
|
|
|
Are you suggesting that the Drake equation originates back to before there was life on earth?
Or are you saying that we now have one conclusive evidence of life in addition to what has been around here on earth for a few billion years?
