Was that another court where Trump set his own people?

MonkderDritte ,

Here's a map of who's under the thumb of US/UK.

Shouldn't have expecteted less with "ever" in the title.

I was detained at a US airport and asked about Israel and Gaza for 2 hours. Why? | Ilan Pappé ( www.theguardian.com )

I was held for two hours. The first round of questions was about my views on Hamas. Then the agents wished to know whether I thought Israel’s actions in the Gaza Strip amount to genocide and what I think of the slogan “Palestine should be free from the river to the sea”. I said yes, I do think Israel is committing...

MonkderDritte ,

Airports are their own legal zones, similiar to embassies, in US? What the hell?

or deny entry on any grounds.

I thought that's the only thing they can do?

MonkderDritte ,

I too think that the people with real power will only really care if they are themselves affected.

Tomorrow there could be a scientific breakthrough that doubles the average lifespan of every human on earth

Genetic max age in humans is 120 years (+-5 years).

MonkderDritte ,

Puh, i think this was from some science journal years ago. I think mainly due to telomeres?

Now that you mention it, this may be obsolete already. Someone knows?

MonkderDritte ,

Which still leaves genetic degradation and a few more to solve. Aside from living standards, since most don't reach even 100. But maybe those cases who reach 120 without doing anything special are similiar cases to the super-healers of lung tissue, which never get cancer even with 2 packs cigare / day?

MonkderDritte ,

That's nothing. Fused quartz can last you billions of years.

MonkderDritte ,

What was the name of the metal boxes you put as the cornerstone of a house again?

MonkderDritte ,

This article is crap. Repeats everything 3 times and explains nothing.

At least they linked the study but since

The solution involves combining a stable matter shell with a shift vector distribution that closely matches well-known warp drive solutions such as the Alcubierre metric.

doesn't mention How they do this, i guess this is a purely mathematic experiment?

MonkderDritte , (edited )

What i meant: physics has a lot of mathematic nuts. Some take it a bit too far and think, just because you can make a formula that works out, it proves anything, instead of mathe describing the logic. As an example: some thesis at ETH Zurich "proved" the existence of god by having some set parameters and assumtions (which were a classical logical fallacy). I think this might be similiar.

For the alcubiere warp drive, the logical explanation is: it warps space before the ship and back behind it, so it basically makes the distance for the ship shorter. I expected a similiar explanation for this. But it looks more like people played mathematics here.

Using zhe Warhammer for the Wehrburg.

MonkderDritte ,

And lethal...

MonkderDritte ,

My bad. I meant the "lethal" in the title. Title makes it sound as if a deadly pandemic happens if that lake thaws.

MonkderDritte ,

Orange (or similiar) juice with apple/grape cider.

Yes, unique feeling on the tongue.

MonkderDritte ,

How? Are they expecting more ad income to offset the energy costs?

What file format do you store your media in?

Hello! I recently listened to a podcast that talked about how storing media files in .av1 format is very efficient and storage-friendly. I've been storing my files in .mkv format, but now I'm considering using Handbrake or a similar service to convert all my video files to .av1 if it's more compressed than .mkv. So;...

MonkderDritte ,

But one bit flip and you can trash the whole iso. Which is why i don't even pdf my scans but keep them as png.

MonkderDritte ,

Wasn't privacy badger the addon owned by a suspicious company? And telemetry or something?

MonkderDritte ,

Right , Ghostery, my bad.

MonkderDritte ,

And then it gets weakened because they fear the "going dark" yet again.

MonkderDritte ,

Genome is too.

MonkderDritte ,

No, genetic. There's epigenetics and looks like the histone has an influence too. HGP was only the start.

MonkderDritte ,

The world where chaotic inner mind is the norm.

orbiting a small, cool star that is expected to shine for 100 times longer than the sun

an ultra-cool red dwarf that is half as hot as the sun and 100 times less luminous.

described as “practically the same size as our planet”

swings around the red dwarf once every 17 hours, making a year on the planet shorter than a single Earth day.

“We believe that the planet rotates synchronously, so that the same side, called the day side, always faces the star, just like the moon does for the Earth.

Earth-sized rocky planet close to red dwarf, tidally locked, got it.

What is this stile of reporting called? Sensationalist?

And why is that star system special?

MonkderDritte ,

Ah, thanks. Because small and dark?

MonkderDritte ,

How was it going? "Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from science (and tech)".

MonkderDritte ,

This made me nightmares as a kid.

MonkderDritte ,

printspell debugging.

MonkderDritte ,

Or "if every engineering field was like IT".

MonkderDritte , (edited )

Never understand how people can eat full hot meals as breakfast.

And pancakes are dessert/snack...

I only ever used this sort of can opener:

Dosenöffner

But most cans are now like this:
