That’s one thing I’m putting some hope in. Tariffs and stupid shit like Worm Boy running our national health infrastructure into the ground benefit no one. Not big companies, not us little guys. I’d hope these big companies will lobby hard to mitigate the stupidity that is bearing down on us.

Why would the WGBH logo give people nightmares? That thing was my childhood. We lived off of PBS shows. Arthur, Zoom, Between the Lions, NOVA, Frontline, Masterpiece, etc.

No, the wheels are made of aluminum, not plastic

Literal crosshairs.

Oh I understood. I agree with you.

I would argue that something that was once available at home that is then restricted to a single place that must be shared with lots of people isn’t freely accessible.

My local library is within walking distance, but it’s pretty small. The Internet is free but not awesome in terms of speed.

If it’s only available at one place, it’s not freely accessible.

Logistically, how would that work? Libraries would have to be everywhere and they’d have to be massive. The IT infrastructure to support that would be immense. How would privacy work? Where could I go to have a private telehealth appointment, for example?

The article says that we can distinguish 2 different smells that appear 60 milliseconds apart.

You’re right about raising prices, but it will benefit consumers. If you’re making a recipe, you won’t have to buy 2 things instead of one and then figure out what you’re gonna do with a weird fraction of some ingredient.

It’ll be less wasteful in terms of packaging too. That’s better for the environment.

For those wondering, the Marburg virus has similar symptoms as Ebola.

I religion is shit, but mosquitoes (and the myriad of illnesses they transmit) have killed more humans than humans have.

Irregardless regardless

I’m right handed but I use my left hand to type and navigate my phone. I also have my number pad on the left hand side of the keyboard.

You called?

And Rankine would be even better than Kelvin in terms of “big number go brrr.” Water boils at 671 R.

Of course, Rankine is the most obnoxious unit I’ve ever had to deal with, but those numbers sure are big!

The only good thing about Fahrenheit is that 69 degrees (20.5 C) is a nice temperature.

The only good thing Idaho is for is pumping your own gas after driving through Oregon.

Ah! Thank you for the explanation

If Tesla’s stock crashes, then the value the banks could get from selling it is much lower.

If Twitter and Tesla go bankrupt, the banks will have loaned out billions to own something worthless.

At least I would assume that’s how it works.

The Elephant getting drunk bit is a bit sus

They’d have to eat a massive amount to get drunk.

One of my professors wrote the textbook we were using. Before the first day of class, he sent out a greeting email. Attached to that email was a .PDF of the textbook. Hell yeah.
