I have to say though, if we were actually making them pay hard for that, I'd be ok with it ethically. You want to skip the line? Sure, that's 2 million+! Then give the money to the one that has to wait instead, but make sure not

I wonder what the birds around the house think of my tastes in music.

Yes, that was the case about 500 million years ago. [0] The climate and planet was very different back then, and it took a long time for the CO2 to go down that much and for life to cause this/adapt to the changes. The life back then

I guess what is more expensive is to pay the builders in a first-world-nation, since brick-laying is labour-intensive and requires skill.

I'm not sure whether the summer experience is the same without having lived through winter as well. In spring every bit of green is celebrated by the winter survivors, but if you just came in from the other hemisphere it just feels emp

By now we need to do both, there is already too much carbon in the atmosphere. If you look at the IPCC projections, 1.5°C is only achievable with carbon capture of some sorts [0] (if at all). Research and development for this has to be push

From the size of the billboards there I can see a connection.

I don't think you can simply deport EU member citizens from a EU state. From what I can understand at first glance it is only possible when the citizen has been sentenced for a heavy crime. edit: Of course Geneva is not in the EU, but

I liked The City & the City by China Miéville. It's basically a crime story based in two different cities, and I won't say more about that. :) edit: Apart from that, if you like visual storytelling, it's great to read gra

If you have others to vouch for you it's helpful since one thing everyone look for is creepiness - how much of a danger could you be? If you're just shy or awkward it might mean tough luck since it's hard to differentiate, bu

I found this pasta made purely from peas or beans in the shop. They are a bit harder to eat but fill you up much faster and feel lighter in the stomach. (And they have less carbs and more protein.) If you like pasta I can recommend trying t

Oohh look at these people with more than one room! (Ok it's valid for those.. but I'm still feeling a bit salty.)

In addition, at least here the taxes and fees add another 10 to 15 percent. If the house does not increase at least that much in value within the time you live in it you lose money, plus the trouble and work of buying and selling.

Seeing that humans have a far higher tolerance for copper compared to other animals we can assume that this was indeed at some point in our history a major problem.

In addition the rules and streets themselves often don't make that much sense for cyclists. If the situation was similar for cars you'd see them behave very differently as well.

May I ask, how does one play a cactus?

I guess you're right, both comments are, since nobody asked for advice. I chose this point to invite this discussion, but could have used one of the many others in the same vein as well. What is a good reaction to someone stating their

I just saw a note this week that in cases like this it might be good to ask 'what have you tried?' before giving any advice. Maybe HN should get into that habit.

It's not as bad here at 51° N, but that does not mean it's possible to see the sun set or even be in a bright outside. (Though we were lucky and able to see the sun only the day before yesterday.)

I've seen a lot of pocket wifi routers also for locals, which is really neat when you travel and your accomodation comes with one of these since you can carry it around all day for wifi and don't need a simcard.

Water is very heavy, so you'd need to reconfigure the whole block to make that happen. I wonder how that would play out - it might make a good premise for a science fiction short story.

Hawaii has fairly liquid lava, which means that the dissolved gas can escape safely and not build up pressure for a big sudden explosion. Accordingly, while the airport may not be safe, the people should be since they can move away from any
