The party of science

The rat party is so full of idiots just like this dumbshit. The stories are endless and they make Boebert look like Einstein.
 
Good God, I guess a floppy disk is sort of sciencey. Seems like leftards do SCIENCE once and then just let it ride while they concentrate on keeping the city safe and clean and paying for illegal aliens and abortions.

UNEXPECTEDLY: San Francisco’s Train System is Still Running on Floppy Disks.
In 1998, San Francisco installed the latest cutting-edge technology to run the train network: floppy disks. A quarter of a century later and the city’s transportation agency is still using the same system.
People under the age of 30 might not know what a floppy disk is; an archaic way of storing data (think USB stick). But the workers at San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) sure do as they are still using obsolete tech to automate the movement of light rail vehicles.
“We were the first agency in the U.S. to adopt this particular technology but it was from an era when computers didn’t have a hard drive so you have to load the software from floppy disks onto the computer,” Mariana Maguire, SFMTA Train Control Project,https://abc7news.com/san-francisco-train-system-has-been-running-on-floppy-disks-but-city-fears-catastrophic-failure-before-upgrade/14624828/
“It’s like if you lose your memory overnight, and every morning, somebody has to tell you hey ‘this is who you are and what your purpose is what you have to do today,’” adds Maguire.
The SMFTA uses five-inch floppy disks to automatically control trains inside the subway. “With each increasing year risk of data degradation on the floppy disks increases and that at some point there will be a catastrophic failure,” says SMFTA director Jeffrey Tumlin.

SPACE CADET: Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee tells schoolkids that moon is a ‘planet’ and ‘made up mostly of gases.’
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) stunned attendees at a high school https://nypost.com/2024/04/08/us-news/traffic-jams-clog-us-highways-as-eclipse-viewers-head-home-after-watching-once-in-a-lifetime-event/ by claiming the rock-solid moon is a “planet” that is “made up mostly of gases” — before adding she still wants to be “first in line” to learn how to live there.
The former top Democrat on the House Science Committee’s space subcommittee badly botched elementary lunar facts while speaking during the gathering at Booker T. Washington High School in Houston.
“You’ve heard the word ‘full moon.’ Sometimes you need to take the opportunity just to come out and see a full moon is that complete rounded circle, which is made up mostly of gases,” Jackson Lee, 74, told teenage pupils who gathered on a sports field ahead of the rare celestial event.

In a statement to The Post on Tuesday, she admitted she was wrong to describe the moon, which has virtually no atmosphere, as being composed mostly of gas to the schoolkids.
“Obviously I misspoke and meant to say the sun, but as usual, Republicans are focused on stupid things instead of stuff that really matters. What can I say, though, foolish thinkers lust for stupidity!” she said of GOPers who swiftly criticized her glaring gaffes.

This isn’t the first time that the final frontier has vexed Jackson Lee:
During a 1997 http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/03/13/the-constitution-is-400-years-old-and-more-pearls-from-sheila-jackson-lee.html to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California, Jackson Lee, who was then serving on the House Science Committee and on the Subcommittee that oversees U.S. space policy, http://www.zimbio.com/Congresswoman+Sheila+Jackson+Lee/articles/31/Breaking+News+Exhaustive+Search+NASA+Archives a guide whether the http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/default.html would be able to http://www.frontpagemag.com/2011/dgreenfield/sheila-jackson-lee-racist-and-moron/print/ an image of “the flag the astronauts planted there before.” When it was subsequently http://dailycaller.com/2011/03/02/congressional-bosses-from-hell-sheila-jackson-lee/?print=1 that the flag to which she was referring was in fact the one that Neil Armstrong had planted on the Moon—not Mars—in 1969, Jackson Lee complained that she was being mocked by bigots. “You thought you could have fun with a black woman member of the Science Committee,” her then-chief-of-staff http://dailycaller.com/2011/03/02/congressional-bosses-from-hell-sheila-jackson-lee/?print=1 angrily in a letter to the editor.

I’m basically at the point where I first assume any black politician who graduated Ivy with a B.A. is an affirmative-action dunce who was handed a degree until they prove otherwise. Conversely, black students who graduate with a B.S. from a state school I assume worked hard and earned their degrees.
