I'm not an astrophysicist, so somebody correct me if I'm wrong. My understanding is that due to the expansion of the universe, all the galaxies are moving away from each other. The rate at which they move away from each other is

Submarines often track each other via noise. I don't think you want to make noises loud enough to be heard through a solid metal bulkhead on a regular basis, since the same will likely be true outside the submarine. Those bulkheads a

I presume the rent-a-cop portion was more concerning. One of the security companies they're working with has a pitch line that says if someone is outside your building screaming, they can come make them stop. It's one thing to of

My guess is so that no one would get pissed off at the rules that come with the stock grant and use the extra comp to get an equivalent per-year salary from someone else. If you get a million dollar stock grant that vests over 8 years, that

Because the Protestants told us that sex is "special", and we've been happily carrying on that tradition for nearly 300 years. We consider it sacrilege to talk about satisfying your sexual desires in the same way that you wo

I've got a friend in the space, your first part is kind of on track. You can't just post to OnlyFans, you also have to advertise yourself on Twitter, Reddit, etc, etc. You also have to make sure that content walks the line, wher

I don't think you really understand the implications of that statement. You can't even have bronze-age level technology with 0 carcinogens. At least not with present technology. You can't burn wood. You can't heat a l

Japan has very different city structures, iirc. The presence of good public transportation is a big one. There's a considerable portion of the US where your options are drive drunk, pay $$$ for an Uber, or sleep next to your car (peop

It's not made up, that's a legitimate thing. If I own a farm and want to do donuts in the field in my car, I can do that without a license. I could do it while drunk if I wanted to, it's all perfectly legal. You only need a

They're not. It's not even close. You're more likely to kill yourself than get killed in traffic. You're actually more likely to be killed by a sober driver than a drunk one (due to the populations). I'm not sayi

For me personally, it's another 80/20 problem. We've gotten our 80% result for 20% the effort/cost and now we're into the 80% of the effort/cost for 20% of the gain territory. At least with our current level

There's really not a need to be that hostile. They probably misread; I did too at first. I thought you were referring to financial derivatives.

Because it was never substantiated. There's little point in repeating information that's no more trustworthy than taking a poll of random people on the street. Israel is free not to release their evidence, and the rest of us are

The overhead of maintaining those configurations all the time is usually too high to be worth it considering the benefit and likelihood of reaping it. Also, in my experience with those systems, they only make sense to use very sparingly. Y

That's not true at all, those towns are common across the Midwest and the South of the US. The only difference is that the rails are freight, so you have to use the highway to get anywhere. I grew up in several of those towns. I don&

It's the staggering cost of building rails. It takes an extreme amount of money, and it pays off over a long horizon. I don't think there's enough confidence that trains will retain popularity over that long of a horizon. C

This is a salient point I hadn't considered. I absolutely would not trust a mob or even most armies if they catch you in hostile territory with a radio at all, much less a sophisticated radio that might be able to interoperate with an

My experience has been different. Ive found it difficult to find senior people. Junior and mid level people abound, but there are precious few qualified seniors. I think it's the nature of the market. There isn't as much demand to

This may not be an issue because ScoopWhoop seems to primarily deal with India, but the name is really close in pronunciation to "suu whoop" (pronounced like "soo whoop"), which is the gang call for the Bloods in the US

It's not quite as fun, but you can play MTG: Arena on a phone or laptop to learn the game enough to keep up. It's free, and made by the same company. You only have to pay if you don't want to play enough to earn cards, or wan

Most of them should offer tours and the like. One of the biggest things to pay attention to is teacher to student ratios. Most of my classes had 6 or so students in elementary school. Education is another one. Private school teachers are us

They're using terrible, imprecise terms. Homosexual vs heterosexual sex is irrelevant here. What matters is the orifice/method (and whether giving or receiving). The CDC has data here [1]. Anal sex has a much, much higher rate
