This may be a joke, but a Dead Sea Channel would work; not only it would bring a body of water and humidity by filling the Dead Sea, but it would generate electricity in the process. As the evaporation of the Dead Sea will increase a lot (c

Does anyone have details on what this means? From the thread in German, is seems it is an instance of German censorship of speech vs Internet, but I am not a German speaker so I may get the translations wrong.

I grew up in a village in the mountains where the closest neighbors were 500m away. At age 14, just before moving, I counted half a dozen attractive females of the same age (plus minus 1 year) in the village, that means 2-3 km away but stil

You got the communist part wrong. If you are born in 1989 as your name suggests, I see why you got it wrong, like that entire generation and the generations after that, but it does not makes it right. Food shortage in Romania had a very dif

I think this is trolling, but they have a point: if you pass legislation that forbids something, you need to treat everything equal under the law - ban everything or nothing. Banning everything is dumb, so ban nothing - hiding information i

If you need an entire application to reset a battery status (btw: why is that even needed?) the problem is with the process of resetting the battery status, not with having the source code of the application. Why is there not a simple proce

You can get motion sickness in a real plane as a pilot too. In flight school I saw many cases, in the summer they used to fly early morning and late afternoon to avoid strong thermal currents. The situation is more similar to seasick on rou
