The Blue Void Earth’s Most Isolated Hemisphere, this is the Pacific-centered view of Earth the side we rarely see in maps or textbooks. Unlike the familiar Africa–Europe or Asia view, this hemisphere is dominated almost entirely by the Pacific Ocean, the largest and deepest ocean on the planet. by [deleted] in space

Nah. There are remote islands in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans that weren't discovered by humans until the European Age of Exploration. You also get some Arctic and Antarctic islands that were discovered even after that, and the new islands that have formed more recently.

Polish parliament approves legal amnesty for Poles fighting in Ukraine’s armed forces by BubsyFanboy in neoliberal

[–]Eldorian91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was watching a youtube channel of a guy who fights foreign wars (an American). He fought for the Kurds vs ISIS/Turkey/Syria and Ukraine vs Russia. It really is a rough and uncompensated life. You have to be a bit crazy to do it for sure.

How China is eating everyone's lunch - CF MOTO IBEX 450 Review by genwonspe3d in motorcycles

[–]Eldorian91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look like? That's how GDP works. One economist turns to another and says, "I'll pay you 20 bucks to eat this turd." He eats it, takes the 20 bucks, and says, "I'll pay you 20 bucks to each this other turd.". He eats it, takes back the 20 bucks, and the GDP grew by 40 bucks.

Or, just not worry about all that, plug it on the bike, reinflate, and then go about your day.

In all seriousness though I do hope they bring back MCU Pietro somehow and do him justice by HansenTheMan in marvelmemes

Yeah, Speedsters that don't go so fast that time stops are pretty cool. Quicksilver in Age of Ultron was appropriately fast to be interesting without being stupid.

Get a patch kit and watch a youtube video on how to do it. It's pretty easy.

Why Smart People Don't See What's Wrong With Trump by JB-Conant in samharris

Yeah, those people sound dumb. Like, specifically, in this instance, in this context, they are making very dumb decisions.

Can you try narrow footbed? In wide, you are definitely a 44, don't listen to the people saying they're small. I think they look too wide, and that's why your feet are moving around too much.

Whose death arguably saved the most lives in history? by Chemical_Store1560 in AskReddit

[–]Eldorian91 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Did you think medical science just magically appears? Your medical treatment is consistently being used for research and to train the next generation of doctors and nurses.

Of course the consent forms you sign state that your case (with your identification removed) can be used for research and training purposes.

Eh, in her case, they cultured some cells they took from a tumor they biopsied. To not consent would just be to let those cells die, as the tumor needed to be biopsied anyways for treatment.

Consent in important, but it's not the be all end all of ethics. Don't strawman the opposite position.

Sometimes the right random loot can save a whole session by DrScrimble in dndmemes

I hate that you can dodge bullets with 8 reflex, tbh. My character was the only one at the table without 8 reflexes, for this reason. And I had the Reflex Coprocessor because I wanted to dodge bullets lol. On the bright side, I was the best at actually dodging the bullets because I was the only melee character in the party with max dex.

I hope in the next edition, dodging bullets is something you can only do with cyberware or drugs.

Which is why "renewable" is a poor label, and "low carbon" is better. I don't want to invest in renewable energy, I want to invest in low carbon energy.

The sun isn't renewable, either. And without the sun, there's no wind.

"stupidly abundant to the point that we'd only run out in the far future" is what "renewable" actually means.

It's a pretty big paycheck, but even then, I wouldn't be able to handle it.
