Nobody likes a sucker, especially the kind that fall for fruit tarts like you. I knew there was trouble. I could smell it on the hot evening breeze. Fortunately for me, trouble is my favorite thing… Because I’m Joe Milkshake. I kicked down the door with one swift, decisive motion.

are there any great innovations left

Honestly, this is such a weird take because, yes. Of course there are innovations left, you just cannot think of them yourself now because then they obviously would not be innovative but rather same old same old. Now the rate of new innovations probably did slow down a lot, I agree with that, so its harder to find something that is innovative in this space.

You did not ask for an alternative but just for visibility because its awesome: a great tetris clone is Techmino. It is on Github and I am getting it via Obtainium.

What’s the Bare Minimum Number of People for a Mars Habitat? (www.universetoday.com)

A recent preprint paper examines the minimum number of people required to maintain a feasible settlement on Mars while accounting for psychological and behavioral factors, specifically in emergency situations. This study was conducted by a team of data scientists from George Mason University and holds the potential to help...

Assimilated salamander robot is my new favourite villain. That said, why did the exhibit not display their children?

I know you probably did not mean it like that, but it is funny that between cutting social security for children and digitisation it is the digitisation that upsets you.

So what did you end up buying and was that just random choice or based on some research/experience?

Like so many things in the minds of Americans, when they think of social benefits in Europe, they think of Sweden.

In Sweden it is actually not unusual to take 4 full weeks off every year in Summer. Especially if you have kids. Can be even 6 weeks for some years if you still got enough parental leave to take. And that is in addition to time off around Christmas, although then maybe not more than 1 1/2 weeks or so.

Disagree. Unpopular opinion posts are a thing. They are exactly what that poster has done. Deleting the post saying no one cares about an unpopular opinion is quite bad moderation unless there is a rule not to post such a type of topic.

Edit: The moderator who deleted that post should also read their own rules again, especially rule 4. Calling something a luke warm take that no one cares about is quite far from being nice.

Braga: ‘I still cringe when I hear it.’ Apparently, it was a long road to the franchise’s most despised title music (www.slashfilm.com)

Working from the oral history in The Five Year Mission: The next 25 years, this is a fascinating deep dive that answers the question “How did a recycled cover of a 1998 song written for Rod Stewart, ‘Where My Heart Will Take Me’ aka ‘Faith of the Heart’ become the title music for Enterprise?”...

This again. Can we just leave this be for good? Some people like it, some people don’t, potentially more people rather do not like it. That is it. Not a single one of these articles is ever adding anything more to the discussion.

Maybe it might make sense to define one account as main account. Then everything else gets synced with just that account. Maybe should be optional.

That is sort of the aim with this initiative, isn’t it? Right now the standards are not the same, so some alternative treatments are absolut bullcrap while others actually seem to help.

Now once you find out which ones are a grift, as you say, would you really want all of these call with the same term, alternative medicine? Thats what the previous poster means, it would be much easier to lump those in with what we call now medicines and keep all the bullshit treatments on their own, a.k.a. alternative medicine.

You mean this data? coronavirus.data.gov.uk

If so, then don’t just look at the positive tests but at the graph that shows tests performed. Positive tests goes up but tests performed is relatively the same. That tells you it is a real increase in positivity. It could be the start of another big peak, or not. Time will tell, but you’d think going through the last years one should pay attention to such statistics. Because if you start taking measures only when you are back to 100.000+ cases a day you are a bit too late.

Right back at you. Please show me where I am not “chill” here? There is one person who is not chill and its certainly not me.

You can still choose to wear a mask or not, theres no law yet or is there? So just don’t, I guess?

The smaller bumps by the way occur because people kept getting vaccines and boosters. How does that look like where you are? When was the last time you got a shot or a booster? From the sound of it a while ago.

Scientists are not fast at abandoning established ways of communication. I mean they still publish the same way as a century ago, its just now digital too. It took a whole friggin’ pandemic for life science researchers to embrace the concept of pre-prints. 8 months to move from twitter sounds almost fast.

Uh no. Any streaming service for $10+ will have limitations on what is on there. Piracy does not have those limitations.

If you complain about quality of pirated content its clear you haven’t actually pirated much. 1080 or 4K is easy to get. I am not even torrenting.

Subtitles, ok I give you that. You can always find a fitting one or just have to adjust timing but that is sometimes a bit of pain to find if it doesn’t come with the file.

Yeah sure, but this is exercise. Which is good for health but certainly not too much fun when you run the same area a million times. So if some app would help keeping up interest in that, whatever.

Looks a bit too complex for my kid to appreciate and get into it. Should have maybe said its for a 6 year old who is on the verge of learning how to read, but not a native English speaker.

That could definitely be an emergency alternative if there is really nothing else, yes. I will look into the Finch app, have seen it scrolling through the Play Store but like you said, does not work directly with steps. Maybe can do that indirectly though. Thanks for suggestions!

Yeah if more people could read my post fully before answering… ;)

Zombies may be a bit to scary for my child, is a bit young and I didn’t mention that in the main post to be fair.

If the Zombies theme would be more like Plants vs Zombies, maaaybe?
