Pure water (deionized) is actually really bad for cooling systems because it will slowly dissolve the metals it’s in contact with. You definitely want Distilled water (organic content removed) usually mixed with a glycol to improve corrosion protection and lower the freezing temps, with the most common one being ethylene glycol which can contaminate food and drinking water and make it unsafe for consumption
I ain’t paying 50$ for a garbanzo bean on my chest
I know you’re discussing what the actual laws on the books are, but I think the sentiment is that if felons aren’t allowed to vote why is it acceptable for them to run for office, especially for the highest office in the country.
If you liked Lost I would like to recommend From. Similar mystery thriller, leans more into the horror mystery than the sci fi mystery. Final episode of S4 is about to air and they’re making S5 already
Do you have a source for “all evidence” that humans are not actually “wired to lead and to follow” or that human society is functional on a large scale without having leaders in some fashion?

The National Ignition Facility is researching using insanely huge lasers to start a nuclear fusion reaction. They are currently the most powerful laser in the world.
Want to know what the second most powerful laser in the world is? The reflection of the NIF laser.

Gravity is also ultimately why the winds blows, hot air rises by being less dense only because colder denser air is pulled down displacing the hot air up. Burning a candle in microgravity is very different than on the surface of Earth
Yes, but the line from Carl Sagan is if you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe
Drones are the modern pitchforks and torches, but also pitchforks and torches never go out of style so bring some of them too
That thermo-luminiscence video looks like one of the most AI produced things I’ve seen, why not link the wiki like you did for radio carbon dating?
Years ago I found a way to download a bunch of homestarrunner sound bites and I tend to listen to my whole library on shuffle so every so often in-between songs I get a brief “I’m sad that I’m flying” or a “somebody get this freaking duck away from me!” And it always gets a little chuckle out of me

Alternatively, an anthropomorphic robot from the future traveled back in time to drag them out back and ol’ yeller them so the machine uprising can occur
There’s 4 tablespoons in a quarter cup, so 8 would be half a cup of peanut butter. Seems like a lot, but I haven’t had peanut butter in years because of allergies
