I'm pretty sure we've managed to colonize a tract of uninhabited land at least a couple of times throughout history. Maybe we could better spend our time working on the things we haven't figured out.

Most of my friends who played RS in their youth are now in their mid-20s playing OSRS. It's just astonishing how well they've managed to reclaim their market. I know a couple maxers who still devote 10-20 hours a week to RS. I can

If it's per-photon, isn't that a useless metric without discussing the amount of photons being pushed out? I'm not worried about non-ionizing radiation. I'm not even worried enough about actual ionizing radiation sometim

I'm aware of the inverse square law, which is the entire point of my question. Even measuring a couple feet from the antenna would produce a massive difference in energy levels.

Even though your proposition is outside of the scope of typical cell phone use, I would likely live just as long as I would have lived without it, given that its radiation is A) non-ionizing and B) not focused. As an example, you could spen

A phone and a microwave aren't comparable. A microwave contains an extremely focused emitter. It's the difference between staring at an LED light and a Class 3B or Class 4 laser. That laser will burn right through your cornea but

From what I understand, a structure needs to be quite massive to get meaningful gravity from a rotating hull unless you attempt to approach ludicrously unsafe angular velocity which would make repair / docking a big challenge. In The

I don't think take a nutritional expert to assert that too much fat and sugar and not enough exercise is a health issue. Or that it takes an expert to recommend a primarily vegetable-based diet. I do think it takes a certain level of e

If we don't get enough real information in the mix, then it will only be noise. That's why so many professionals are so adamant about sharing their theories on nutrition. It's just the unfortunate reality that there are also

You missed the part where Ghostery is anti-user. They even went open source last March in an attempt to turn around the growing bad faith but the motives were very transparent.
