To begin with, We can't delineate between the first three options. The intended end is always a unified global order that is functional, righteous, and free. It is only the means that change; whether they be surreptitious nudges or forceful impositions is simply a question of availability. As such, it vastly depends on the nature of said powers. We will do whatever consequence allows. If subtlety remains the optimal strategy, then that is the course We stay. If otherwise... well... All shall love Us and despair.

What is a pizza, really? As far as units go. We understand it as a culinary composition. But to say half a pizza implies there is such a thing as a whole pizza. Is a whole pizza a small pizza, and large pizzas are really one and a half pizzas, deformed? Is a large pizza, instead, the whole, and smalls are only two thirds of a whole pizza? If you eat one and a half medium pizzas, maybe that's really just eleven sixteenths of an extra large, which is the actual whole. Or maybe it's fifty six, because a whole pizza is really just a Bagel Bite. They should really address this at the next CGPM.

We give zero fucks about old astrology. We're not about to start with this new shit.

According to NASA: https://www.history.nasa.gov/ap11-35ann/missions.html Apollo 11 July 16-24, 1969 Crew: Neil A. Armstrong, Michael Collins, Edwin E. "Buzz" Aldrin, Jr. Half of Apollo’s primary goal—a safe return—was achieved at 4:17 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on July 20, when Armstrong piloted "Eagle" to a touchdown on the Moon, with less than 30 seconds worth of fuel left in the Lunar Module. Six hours later, Armstrong took his famous "one giant leap for mankind." Aldrin joined him, and the two spent two-and-a-half hours drilling core samples, photographing what they saw, and collecting rocks. After more than 21 hours on the lunar surface, they returned to Collins on board "Columbia," bringing 20.87 kilograms of lunar samples with them. The two Moon-walkers had left behind scientific instruments, an American flag, and other mementos, including a plaque bearing the inscription: "Here Men From Planet Earth First Set Foot Upon The Moon. July 1969 A.D. We Came In Peace For All Mankind." Apollo 12 November 14-24, 1969 Crew: Charles "Pete" Conrad, Jr., Richard F. Gordon, Jr., Alan L. Bean The second lunar landing was an exercise in precision targeting. The descent was automatic, with only a few manual corrections by Conrad. The landing, in the Ocean of Storms, brought the Lunar Module "Intrepid" within walking distance—182.88 meters—of a robot spacecraft that had touched down there two-and-a-half years earlier. Conrad and Bean brought pieces of the Surveyor 3 back to Earth for analysis, and took two Moon-walks lasting just under four hours each. They collected rocks and set up experiments that measured the Moon’s seismicity, solar wind flux, and magnetic field. Meanwhile Gordon, on board the "Yankee Clipper" in lunar orbit, took multispectral photographs of the surface. The crew stayed an extra day in lunar orbit taking photographs. When "Intrepid’s" ascent stage was dropped onto the Moon after Conrad and Bean rejoined Gordon in orbit, the seismometers the astronauts had left on the lunar surface registered the vibrations for more than an hour. Apollo 14 January 31-February 9, 1971 Crew: Alan B. Shepard, Jr., Stuart A. Roosa, Edgar D. Mitchell After landing in the Fra Mauro region—the original destination for Apollo 13—Shepard and Mitchell took two Moon-walks, adding new seismic studies to the by-now familiar Apollo experiment package, and using a "lunar rickshaw" pull-cart to carry their equipment. A planned rock-collecting trip to the 1,000-foot-wide Cone Crater was dropped, however, when the astronauts had trouble finding their way around the lunar surface. Although later estimates showed that they had made it to within 30.48 meters of the crater’s rim, the explorers had become disoriented in the alien landscape. Roosa, meanwhile, took pictures from on board the Command Module "Kitty Hawk" in lunar orbit. On the way back to Earth, the crew conducted the first U.S. materials processing experiments in space. The Apollo 14 astronauts were the last lunar explorers to be quarantined on their return from the Moon. Apollo 15 July 26-August 7, 1971 Crew: David R. Scott, James B. Irwin, Alfred M. Worden The first of the longer, expedition-style lunar landing missions was also the first to include the lunar rover, a carlike vehicle that extended the astronauts’ range. The Lunar Module "Falcon" touched down near the sinuous channel known as Hadley Rille. Scott and Irwin rode more than 27.36 kilometers in their rover, and had a free hand in their geological field studies compared to earlier lunar astronauts. They brought back one of the prize trophies of the Apollo program—a sample of ancient lunar crust nicknamed the "Genesis Rock." Apollo 15 also launched a small subsatellite for measuring particles and fields in the lunar vicinity. On the way back to Earth, Worden, who had flown solo on board "Endeavor" while his crewmates walked on the surface, conducted the first spacewalk between Earth and the Moon to retrieve film from the side of the spacecraft. Apollo 16 April 16-27, 1972 Crew: John W. Young, Thomas K. Mattingly II, Charles M. Duke, Jr. A malfunction in the main propulsion system of the Lunar Module "Orion" nearly caused their Moon landing to be scrubbed, but Young and Duke ultimately spent three days exploring the Descartes highland region, while Mattingly circled overhead in "Casper." What was thought to have been a region of volcanism turned out not to be, based on the astronauts’ discoveries. Their collection of returned specimens included a 11.34-kilogram chunk that was the largest single rock returned by the Apollo astronauts. The Apollo 16 astronauts also conducted performance tests with the lunar rover, at one time getting up to a top speed of 17.70 kilometers per hour. Apollo 17 December 7-19, 1972 Crew: Eugene A. Cernan, Ronald E. Evans, Harrison H. "Jack" Schmitt At the end of this last Apollo mission Eugene Cernan earned the distinction of becoming the last human to stand on the Moon -- so far. While Ronald Evans circled in America, Jack Schmitt and Cernan collected a record 108.86 kilograms of rocks during three Moon-walks. The crew roamed for 33.80 kilometers through the Taurus-Littrow valley in their rover, discovered orange-colored soil, and left behind a plaque attached to their lander "Challenger," which read: "Here Man completed his first exploration of the Moon, December 1972 A.D. May the spirit of peace in which we came be reflected in the lives of all mankind." The Apollo lunar program had ended. ... Know. What the fuck. You're talking about. Moron.

Yes. We did, in fact, read it. Apollo 12 14 November 1969 Saturn V United States NASA Manned Orbiter/Lander Success Apollo 14 31 January 1971 Saturn V United States NASA Manned Orbiter/Lander Success Apollo 15 26 July 1971 Saturn V United States NASA Manned Orbiter/Lander/Rover Success Apollo 16 16 April 1972 Saturn V United States NASA Manned Orbiter/Lander/Rover Success Apollo 17 7 December 1972 Saturn V United States NASA Manned Orbiter/Lander/Rover Success It says we've gone back 5 times. How bout you know what the fuck you're talking about if you don't want to be called a moron?

So you want to be the one in between him and Mark. Got it.

You said she called you immature, not young. Growth implies development, not merely the passage of time.

From the article you linked: Regarding not having been back : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_missions_to_the_Moon (since you seem to take Wikipedia at face value) We understand you can't help being a moron. But maybe try not to be so vocal about it, please?

Where's Phillies? How am I supposed to know what kind of Sunday it is?

It's both. Also, sorry about your passing. You will be missed. -

No way! We, like, totally don't sound like that at all. For sure. -
So whose rules are you playing by, kitten? Some one else's? That's mighty alpha of you.

We think it's safe to assume that it is an unemployed Sunday. -
Welcome hubbb on his 404 page thread on his website.

That's a dumb idea. We don't vote on who to allow in or not. And we don't cordon users off to their own little corners. It's an open forum, any one can join, and post wherever they like.

Question about financial compensation associated with contract labor
Hornshire replied to pail's topic in Free-For-All
Credit is given where credit is due. It's not your fault that they're trying to dick you over. It is your fault that you are not better equipped to deal with it. If that were actually the case, and they are not doing so, then it demonstrates either incompetence or extreme maliciousness on their part. Potentially both. To hold that particular view is more cynical than it is naive. -
