But in dense grasslands and heavy forests the soil benefits from the sun, in that as the grasses and trees go through their lifecycles they reintroduce nutrients to the soil in the form of falling leaves/needles and death and decomposi

I’m not saying I find it compelling evidence, but they note that ‘[t]he team looked elsewhere for evidence of finger amputation in other societies and found more than 100 instances where it had been practic[c]ed. “This practice was clearly

The light pollution from Vegas is wild. My buddy and I were heading towards Las Vegas from Boise on 15 about 20 years ago and, at around 2:00 am, I thought I was hallucinating because it appeared that the sun was rising. It took us a few se

Most IRL play groups I’ve played with would count that as a loss for you (or, most likely, just not invite you back). And in competitive/regulated play you would timeout and lose. Not sure who these weirdos are that are stipulating to

Do you lump MMR vaccines in with popular and mass-market medicine that is shit or homeopathy? How about the polio or HPV vaccine? Or the drugs that suppress HIV? Or setting bones? Or heart surgery, or laser eye surgery, or amputations… all

I don’t know what percentage it is, but people in my age range (40-50) that I know who pirate tend to do so for fear of losing the media they love. I don’t even have time to watch 1% of what I have downloaded on my storage drives, but when

It doesn’t have to be to someone’s detriment - it can just be unethical. The obvious agenda here is for a private company to use DNA data sets to develop/streamline drugs and profit handsomely (or write off any losses on their taxes).

None of those ‘in the know’ have forecasted it, but I’m still hoping it is Apple rebooting their Wi-Fi hardware - I’m still running an old AirPort Time Capsule at home because it is so reliable and easy to use, but it is long in the tooth.

The number you’re using is deceptive. You’re citing the Dept. of Defense’s (mandatory) budget, as if that is all the funding that goes to the military. It is not. After mandatory spending (DoD mandatory funds that you cite, social security,

Because there’s no immediate and clear plan for a return on the investment due to how speculative things are, private funding is scant. Because we (the USA) are spending most of our money on the insane military complex there is little extra

This seems like a specific application of the observed entropic principles that cosmologists have been espousing for a while. It leaves off the fun part to make itself a law though - all evidence indicates that we are headed towards a stat

These look similar to, though much more rigid than, the 5 gallon containers Costco sells bulk cooking oils in (I buy quite a bit of peanut oil for deep frying). Come to think of it, I may give those a try - they are rigid enough to hold gea

I chuckle to see someone that read it sort-of like I did - my grandpa had it in his collection and I picked it up around age 14 or 15, read maybe 100 pages, then didn’t pick it up again until my early 20s when I then tore through it in a fe

This is me, still clinging to my 2015 11” Air. My biggest gripe is I miss the screen ratio. 16:9 is so much more aesthetically pleasing and functional to me than the 16:10 ratio of the new models. That 1 unit makes a world of difference to
