Something similar for me as well. Played for about 10 minutes and had it happen a few times - I'd be in a fight or killing some shapes, then it would rocket me across the screen and say someone killed me. The "kill cam" would

Everything you touch on is part of one or more potential answers to the Fermi paradox that have been proposed. And they're good points! One or all of them might be the answer. > My point is - it's not a paradox unless you make

I don't understand why you are so aggressive to a layperson asking a question like this. They simply want to better understand what implications the existence of neutrinos has on our understanding of the world, what they actually do, e

Lack of radio signals is a pretty tiny portion of the Fermi paradox. Fermi himself wasn't even thinking of them at the time according to the other Los Alamos scientists that were part of the conversation, but instead about having evide

Sure. That's a major over-correction. But there are existing and known biases in data sources that need to be accounted for - you don't want to further perpetuate those. I think it's obvious that Google went to a ridiculous e

Respectfully, you do not seem well informed on this matter. THCA, when decarbed, will convert into regular THC. A good chunk of what you are smoking with "regular" marijuana was likely THCA when on the flower, particularly if it i

No. A flow hood or air box helps but you can do it without. I'd recommend using mycellium to make a liquid culture vs. a spore solution, though. Less chance of contamination and faster colonization of your grain spawn.
