I think it's a continuation of their ire since her tour started because she tells her fans to register to vote, and actually set up booths at every one of her concerts to register people.

I Found David Lynch’s Lost Dune II Script https://www.wired.com/story/david-lynch-dune-sequel-script-unearthed/ wtf:

Seems like this will be the first time in Hollywood history the top billed actor on a live action movie will be mainly a voiceover, assuming Pedro Pascal is not going to be on set all that much.

Not a surprise, Ahsoka renewed for a second season.

Really clean first launch of Vulcan, but unfortunately the Peregrine lander is having issues with a critical loss of fuel. It likely will be unable to land.

ULA is attempting to launch their Vulcan rocket for the first time in about 40 minutes... 2:18 AM EST, January 8, 2024. The Vulcan is just the first stage, using Blue Origin's BE-4 methalox enginess, while the upper stage is ULA's Centaur. This is called the Certification-1 mission, and it'll have payloads -- the first is the Peregrine Lunar lander for Astrobotic, in fulfillment of their NASA contract in the Commercial Lunar Payload Services program. Peregrine itself is carrying 20 payloads to the lunar surface. Astrobotic aims to be a shipping company like a Fed-Ex for the Moon. The second is Celestis Memorial Spaceflights deep space Voyager mission known as the Enterprise Flight -- sending ashes to the moon to spread human remains... I have questions about that, but it's late. More details: https://www.ulalaunch.com/missions/next-launch/vulcan-cert-1 Launch stream:

Nice to learn Kahhori was voiced by Devery Jacobs from Reservation Dogs.

Worst dubbed lines for tv versions of movies.

The most reused Falcon 9 rocket (booster 1058), having flown 19 flights over 3.5 years, had a tumble on the recovery droneship after the launch and landing on the 23rd. In total it's launched 260+ metric tons to space, including 2 astronauts to the ISS, and more than 860 satellites. The initial certification of the boosters was to launch and land 10 times with minimal inspection, this was later expanded to 20, however SpaceX does expect them to last to as much as 100 flights each with more serious refurbishment.
