Space is extremely regulated, SpaceX just gets permits approved to do anything they want because they’re extremely cooperative with the US military and CIA.
Rocket Lab is a private rocket company that launches from New Zealand, but part of the company is in the US so they still have to get an FAA license to launch from any country. No matter where SpaceX goes they would need FAA and FCC licensing.
With Glock handguns specifically it’s easy to shove something in the back to block the little catch that stops it from being fully automatic, and right now it’s slightly easier to 3d print the right size piece of plastic than do it with a dremel. Some activists wanted to ban Glocks, but Glock is a big corporation so NY politicians warped it into a 3d printer ban while acting like they this is what you asked for.
And it’s vice-signalling to billionaires because Luigi supposedly had a 3d printed gun.
The real answer is you can’t, every time the astronauts take a piss it’s throwing everything off. But they do know where San Diego is going to be, and they want to land the capsule off the coast of San Diego, so they keep making adjustments throughout the flight so they stay on course to hit the water at 8:07:27 because that’s when San Diego is going to be there.
There’s a rotating spaceship in a parking lot in Japan. 20 years ago NASA paid Japan to build the Centrifuge Accomodations Module for the ISS, but Congress cut the $100m it was going to cost to launch it, so it’s next to some bushes with bird poop on it.
No she’s just trying to sell the idea that being trans is a tactical choice just like how she put JK instead of Joanne on her book cover so more boys would buy it.
Standard terf belief is that trans men just sometimes wanted to do boy stuff as a kid but didn’t because of sexism and are too cowardly and weak to stand up for themselves so they treacherously try to join the enemy. As part of trying to convince herself and other people that’s how it works she has to do her own Evangelical “I smoked crack every day before I found Jesus” thing.

Lockheed didn’t finish building the docking ports yet. Artemis III is supposed to be the first one with the docking port on it.
PFLP has been allied with Hamas on a level more like NATO since 2018. Oct 7 was technically run by the “Joint Operations Room” which is Hamas and PFLP and every significant Palestinian group with fighters in Gaza. Hamas is the biggest but PFLP is in there and one of the hostage exchange priorities was freeing Nader Sadaqa, the non-Muslim Samaritan PFLP leader.
Hamas in the 1980s was a religious zealot group that hated communists more than Israelis. But Hamas has working internal democracy, members vote for the leaders and what they support drifted over time so now Islam is dialed down to being a “frame of reference” for big tent Palestinian nationalism.
