Major FOSS projects are usually named after one of two things: Either they are named after what they are not, as GNU (GNU's Not Unix) or WINE (WINE Is Not an Emulator), or they are named after Linus Torvalds, as Linux or Tor.

I suppose being named after Linus Torvalds is also being named after something they are not, though.

At least, for now.

(the context, if you are wondering, is a proof-of-concept that was conducted using the Galileo spacecraft en route to Jupiter. They turned it back towards earth and tried to see if they could conclusively detect the presence of life solely from data collected from space.)

well I thought I would have everything done on time but no it turns out there was a misunderstanding on project two from five weeks ago that the professor just now got around to grading and most of the class missed this thing and would get a 50 on it but the professor says I can redo that part but this is a huge assignment that I have two weeks to do and I have another huge assignment due on thursday and a test on monday and there's two finals the wednesday after next and this is too much x.x

When people talk about "doing the best you can with what you've got," it's really, really important *not* to read that as "doing the best humanly possible."

Story idea, to come back to tomorrow 

Some kind of magical thing is made to prevent or prolong the inward-pointing time of a black hole, such that it's somehow possible to live in it. a society gets somehow built inside the event horizon. how does this go? what would it be like on this crystalline barrier slowing the inevitable fall into the singularity? with time becoming spacelike, what would that permit?
