A great view of the launch of a Soyuz-2. Towards the bottom of the frame, you can clearly see the support booms release as the weight of the rocket is removed. It's an ingenious launch system that makes the Soyuz far more resilient against high winds than traditional launch pads. pic.twitter.com/yJG5DiZ0Iz

"How the fossil industry and the oligarchs shape Indonesia's policy.
Two days after its publication, 6.5 million "viewers" had already been published, and since the documentation was shown on the net shortly before the presidential election, you can imagine how much the local oligarchy enjoyed it.
In Banyuwangi, in the east of Java, a public demonstration was forbidden, because the documentary implied "hate speech" towards the candidates. Such an accusation is always possible.
The lurid title, which has nothing to do with the content, was also criticized. Well, the two journalists Dandhy Laksono and Ucok Suparta know the logic of the market TM and know the Sex&Crime sells.
If they had titled the film - How major corporations influence our politics and socio-cultural development - a few 100,000 people would probably watch it and the now public discussion in Indonesia would not take place."

Mysterious Mineral from Earth's Mantle Discovered in South African Diamond
https://www.livescience.com/new-mineral-discovered-in-diamond.html
"A single grain of rock lodged in a diamond contains a never-before-found mineral.
And that newfound substance could reveal unusual chemical reactions unfolding in the depths of the mantle, the layer of Earth that lies between the planet's crust and outer core. "

I know that AI is very far away from out-thinking humans, but I really think it's just a matter of time. The combination of robots and AI gives me pause. It's interesting and scary all at the same time.

Tesla ‘Cybertruck’ Pickup Gets Unveil Date: Nov 21 in Los Angeles
https://electrek.co/2019/11/06/tesla-cybertruck-pickup-unveil-date-nov-21-la/
Elon Musk confirmed that Tesla is going to unveil the ‘Cybertruck’ on November 21 in Los Angeles “near SpaceX’s rocket factory.”
The CEO has been teasing Tesla’s electric pickup truck concept for the last year.
It was first supposed to be unveiled this summer, but it was pushed to the fourth quarter.
Musk hinted that it would be unveiled in November in Los Angeles.
Coincidentally, or likely not, the events in the Blade Runner movie happened in November 2019 in Los Angeles.
The CEO has previously said that the Tesla pickup truck, which he now calls the ‘Cybertruck’, looks ‘Blade Runner-esque’.
