The movie adaptation of Wing Commander has a scene where damaged space fighters are pushed over the edge of a "carrier" craft, and instead of floating off in the direction of the push, they fall over the edge, like on an *aircraft* carrier. They also have sonar that works in space.

Rolling Stone: clearly documents a 30+ year long con job. A rural county's own leadership lined their pockets by helping ag interests destroy the water supply. Everyone who read the article apparently

@sarahtaber@mastodon.online I'm a little embarrassed that I read this and didn't make the connection until you pointed it out. However there is this to consider: would anyone have read this article if it didn't call out Amazon? I mean, you're absolutely right, but I wonder if it would even have been published if it just laid out the history and downplayed the data center angle.
