It’s sharp with surprisingly sturdy spines.

Nah, don’t worry, you don’t act like a stalker.

And I’d guess what they’re asking is how a vacuum would cool something if there’s no matter providing collisions where energy transfer can happen. I.e., isn’t vacuum the ultimate insulator? If I understand correctly, objects in a vacuum cool by radiating only (i.e., energy leaving as photons), and perhaps we only think of space as cold because the absence of a medium (i.e., atmosphere) means no pressure and no additional energy being provided in said medium.

If you saw 13.4 on-air and 13.1 off-air, and if you saw a channel resume material eventually, then it does sound to me like programming went dark while the transmitter was up and that content was, one way or another, missing. I imagine lots of possibilities. It might be interesting to see if anyone else reports on it as an outage.

I don’t know why I thought this one was older. Wow!

I resist because I’m literate enough to know that “dove” is a bird that rhymes with “love”.

Duolingo? Mine still has dark mode. Maybe just for subscriptions?

Dirt!

I was just recommended a product called “Milorganite”, which is a soil product out of Milwaukee. They apparently ship it all over the US. People in, say, Florida are buying soil from Wisconsin.

Username checks out.

I reported a comment for basically saying that men are the only violent sex, and they temp-banned me for abusing the reporting system. The explanation message (canned, I’m sure) said that abusively reporting people is a form of harassment or bullying, or something like that.

Eat shit reddit, and fuck spez.

edit: Based on my experience and what others are saying, I have to wonder, were they trying to burn it down from the inside?

One of us!

I think you’re the kind of person I imagine when I wonder how the world would really work if we got to a kind of utopia thing where money didn’t need to exist anymore and everyone just did whatever they wanted. Star Trek portrays one of the captain’s dad as running a restaurant in Louisiana, for example, and I just thought how cool it’d be to have access to so much abundance of resources that you just cook big batches of food for whomever wants some.

But then someone challenged me to think about the other aspects of a restaurant, like serving and cleaning, managing access, etc. So once in a while I wonder about that–what it would take to really make restaurants work (as in, really work as places that celebrate great food) in a world with no money.

Maybe no money just means no need to limit basic resources. Maybe it doesn’t mean no other incentive system, which might just still be money, after all. I don’t know, just something I wonder about in a way to try to better understand economics and the evolution of society.

It seems obvious to me now.

Many US states are now requiring age verification for adult sites. VPN companies will benefit if that requirement expands. The Republican party’s pearl-clutching politics are what can make that happen.

The Swastika in the center of the nose cone was meant as a good luck symbol. (This was well before the Nazi party adopted the Swastika as its official emblem).

(Also the wrong orientation to be the Nazi symbol.)

Edit: I admit I may have missed the point of your post. It just occurred to me I don’t even know about the OP’s cartoon, which I now realize is probably referring to Lucky Lindy himself. Gonna go get my learn on.

It’ll be just like 2020: react after the damage is done and pretend they weren’t complicit.

“AI” is the new “blockchain”.

I want someone to project that map onto a globe to illustrate how ridiculous it was. The elegantly circular arcs of the north sides of those storms would look bizarrely teardrop-pinched, if I’m not mistaken.
