So why did a right wing incel do it?

You might want to tell the whole truth about that problem. That spacecraft used English units (pounds-force-seconds) for thrust data in its navigation software, while the mission navigation team was expecting metric units (Newtons-seconds). So the problem wasn't the units of measurement but a simple lack of communication within the program's management teams. Shame on you.
You just validated my claim. Thank you.
 
Well, it could be that.

Or maybe it's that I'm a rebellious soul who prefers to pick and choose the way I declare my height without caring that someone's panties might get twisted.

Because free speech and independence from membership in the fuckwittery club.
Or you are just wrong, like you often are, and can’t stand to admit it at all.

But yes, you have your freedom to be dumb. Keep using it. It’s hilarious!
 
Interesting story today on how they identified the shooter.

The guy had no ID on him and no online presence to do photo matching.
So they got the serial number off of his steel peener substitute and sent it to BATF in Washington DC.
Here's where it gets VERY interesting.

Did you know the BATF requires EIGHT days to track down a serial number?
Why you might ask?

Blame Fucking Libertarians (the Rand Paul contingent of Congress), the House Freedumb caucus and the National Rifle Assassination Association.

Context: In 2024, firearm sales records by serial number are STILL stored on paper in a huge warehouse outside of Washington (I believe the location was used for the final scene of the first Indiana Jones movie). Some records are stored on microfiche. It's a time and manpower intensive search. Given enough manpower, they can turn an "emergency request" around in one day.

Fucking Libertarians et al have stood against any and all attempts to computerize the records of firearms sales, because it is illegal to sell to a "mentally ill" person and a significant minority of Libertarians exhibit one or more symptoms of severe mental illness.

Anyway, a team was dispatched to comb through the millions of records.

Then the Secret Service got an unexpected gift: the knockoff piece-of-shit rifle was manufactured right here in the Good Ole USA, and the manufacturer had computerized records of all sales (if the steel peener substitute had been made in Eastern Europe or China the agents would likely still be searching records).

So, the manufacturer said they sold the rifle to some shithole gun store in Pennsylvania in 2013. The gun store closed a few years later.

This turned out to be a turning point, because "closed gun store sales" are NOT stored in the general records facility, but instead are stored in plastic tubs in another location. The individual plastic tub was located and after a couple of hours of poring over invoices they found the bill of sale to the shooter's libertarian daddy. They thought daddy might be the shooter but the ID used to purchase the weapon made him too old. So they went and knocked on his door and asked him if he had a son.
Funny I just read yesterday that the father called the police as soon as it happened because he was suddenly concerned where his son was and where his gun was.

Unlike you, I have the FREEDOM to be dumb if I choose to act that way. Mainly because, also unlike you, I'm not limited by a lack of intelligence or intellect.
 
According to NBC the parents of the shooter called the police hours before the shooting to report their son missing with along with one of his father's guns.
 
No, we leave that up to you…carbon boy.

Will you address the meter question again? This time go with how many beats in a measure for a waltz.

Mr Google is my friend, and apparently not one of yours, because Mr. Google tells me that metre is the rhythm of stressed and unstressed words in a sentence.

Rime is often seen as a milky looking buildup of ice on (MS) Windows.

Said icing from lack of use perhaps being be the reason you can't figure out how to use google like the rest of the universe.

Don’t need to use it, I can do thing in context. Unlike yourself.

Maybe it’s the spine meds?

By law the ATF is not supposed to have a registry of firearm serial numbers. It wasn't too long ago the Director of the ATF testified under oath that no such registry existed and the one that did exist had been destroyed by court order.

Thomas Matthew Crooks:
Trump Campaign Profiled Father


Donald Trump's presidential campaign once profiled the father of attempted assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks ... identifying the guy as a strong Republican who was into guns.

Trump's 2016 campaign amassed a database of millions of voters in swing states and Matthew Brian Crooks was one of them ... with Trump's team determining he was a likely gun owner and "hunter" who would favorably respond to pro-gun rights messaging ... according to data first obtained and revealed by the UK's Channel 4 News.

The would-be assassin's mother, Mary, was profiled by Trump's 2016 campaign too apparently ... and she was also identified as a likely gun owner by campaign researchers.

And get this ... Trump's campaign database assigned scores to each of the 6.7 million Pennsylvania voters analyzed ahead of the 2016 election ... with the shooter's father scoring among the top 20 in their Bethel Park hometown in terms of pro-gun-related indicators.

Did you notice that when I said the word "subject" above that a pearl clutching pair of twisted panties immediately responded? :D

I blame your parents' lack of intelligence. And the public education system for not recognizing your special needs requirement.

Wow.

Awww shucks thanks.

I’m not like you with a spine issue that clearly God didnt feel like he needed to spare you and your Vlad slurping friend who knows what to say when his Daddy tells him.

Have a great day carbon meter boy.
