More ISS stuff I didn't know
It has port and starboard lights, just like a boat.
So Dragon is following with same orientation
ie
Dragon > ISS
not
Dragon < ISS

that's on ISS. Commander Sunita Williams shows that to you at 5:30 in to this video, if the link doesn't bring you there: www.youtube.com/watch?v=06-Xm3_Ze1o&t=330s.
The whole video is good as an idiot's guide to ISS, though it's a few years old.
Edit: live stream from NASA, if you don't want to watch the submarine cunt's channel: youtu.be/21X5lGlDOfg (exact same stream, I think)

It is a false dichotemy
to say that you cannot strive to further the achievements of humanity if there are other problems that still exist.
You should do both, further humanity while at the same time raising the living conditions of the lowest in society.

He wasn't suggesting you couldn't do both. The poem highlighted the incongruity of celebrating cutting edge technological advancement in a society where basic inequalities are still baked into the system.
In other news, US President makes inflammatory comments and goes off to watch a space rocket launch, while his country burns. I'd say Gill Scott-Heron is sadly still bang on the money.

The Lost Tribe of Hoxton with Martin Askew
NSFW
Martin Askew (one of your own from Hoxton's east end blah blah) takes you on a short journey around the area he grew up in. Martin shows how gentrification has ripped the soul out of his community, not the trendy part but the council estate blocks just behind Hoxton St Market. NSFW for mild swears but commentary is great and makes up for a lack keeping the camera straight.

I had a small reflector telescope for a few years but not used it much
I recently bought a T-ring adapter that means I can put my old DSLR camera on the telescope. Fairly easy, and the adapter was only £10 off eBay. Loads of tutorials on YouTube, and for pics of stars there is free stacking software that gets surprisingly good results with just a 50 mm lens and a tripod.

You should try a cls filter if you've got a DSLR
It clips right in front of the sensor, works well in heavy light pollution. The downside is you'll need a longer exposure time, higher ISO or make use of stacking to get some decent pics.

Neroma: I bango style tune, if thats what you'd call it?
I made this!
Made 2 more tracks since the other day (nothing special or anything just some simple arrangements that I think sound nice-ish in the ear). Oh and sorry to waffle on again, genuinely chuffed with this new capability? So far I've only been able to produce one style/genre of music (maybe I've crossed into a couple of others, I'm not sure)? Whereas not so easy to make something more melancholy, less clubby or poppy etc, it's not just a case of slowing the beat down but, requires understanding/skills I don't possess. Either way hope you enjoy and having nice weekend...

But I kinda agree with him... the idea of social media platforms being compelled to fact check everyone's posts would inevitably result in an system of state censorship and control straight out of a dystopian nightmare.
And if major media providers start doing this routinely on their own, eventually legislators are going to get involved, and we're in that dangerous territory.
