It’s a great idea and one that Apple should deeply consider. If Apple allowed cross-platform browser extensions, it would transform the web. Orion — a web browser designed from the ground-up. Native WebKit speed, full extension compatibility, and absolute privacy is finally together in one browser that…
It’s the little things! I tuned in to the livestream of the mission and thought it was culturally important to share. In the stream, it’s hard to tell but I believe Glover was taking a photo of Hansen posing for a photo. I think they were preparing for press interviews.

It’s been 54 years since we last visited the Moon. It’s an exciting day for science, for NASA and for mankind. The Artemis II launch gives me a lot hope (and anxiety). The rocket will be piloted by 3 americans and 1 canadian. Truly a historic day. This mission is considered a test flight which […] The post Artemis II launches today appeared first on stephen.nyc.

I know the coffee drinkers have opinions about Starbucks 😅 but I recently picked up these beans. It’s real bright and bouncy. Acidity is more subdued than I was expecting.
