Some international relations books I've read stated that after 9/11, the US started using the term Middle East to distinguish it from Asia (implying ME was a part of Asia). A year or two ago my little brother told me how his girlfriend was being taught Asia includes ME. Usually India and Pakistan are considered ME - when I was growing up - but now India is being labelled as Asian

thank you Walsp 😊

The term Middle East was being used long before 9/11

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And Asia is everything East of Suez or the Bosphorus

I'm willing to admit I misread the books

Or the Urals

<-- doesnt consider himself an asian 😉

The Middle East is part of Asia like the Balkans are part of Europe

admittedly, was born in Tel Aviv to parents who are 3rd gen londoners from eastern europe (yes, yes .. we're Jews, ashkenazi)

. . . isn't the Balkans Eastern European?

Correct

If you have a number can’t you send messages to faxes?

What if it’s a joint venture

Also, CRS16 launched days ago

Yeah they said on the 7th

I was a little bit mad

Which means it’s already there by now

I found a catalog for shopping via fax

CRS16 had the booster land in the water.

Ha Yeet

But seriously this fax BS

eventually they will learn

and they will come to the IT professionals and say "why didn't you tell us?"

shit so spacex new plan is to just drop it into water instead of landing on a pad?

that will help for reuse on earth but that ain't going to help land a shuttle on mars for reuse by a mars mission

@shanepottermi Pump failed on the last one
