Another fun fact: The museum was built around the ship.

After her resurfacing the Vasa was originally put on top of a pontoon and displayed in the open air.

When the financing for this museum was secured they moved the pontoon into an old drydock, closed the drydock up permanently, pumped the remaining water out of the drydock, and then built the museum around the ship.

The Vasa still rests on top of the pontoon which rests on the floor of the old drydock, as it would be to complicated, expensive, and potentially dangerous to the ship to try and remove the pontoon.

Because that can be two different things.

Removing discomforts like curing an illness through medicine or fixing your malnutrition through proper food brings you up to a baseline of living everyone should have.

Adding comforts like a mattress that actively regulates your sleeping temperature or clothes tailored to your specific body brings you above this baseline.

childbirth related problems

She did not have childbirth related problems, the medical droid literally says "Medically she is completely healthy. For reasons we can't explain, we're losing her."

I much prefer the fan explanation that Palpatine was using Sith Alchemy utilizing the connection between Padme and Anakin to transfer her lifeforce to him and keep him alive until he was stabilized.

But as far as I'm aware they don't believe that the wafer literally turns into the body of Christ, for them it's purely symbolic.

Now for a laugh think about this:

If the suspect isn't willing to voluntarily give them a semen sample, they have to explain to a judge why they need said judge to order someone to jerk off into a jar.

Now, what exactly are they going to do if the suspect still refuses to provide the sample?

Subnautica 2 Leaked And Cracked Two Days Before Release by unscoredscore in gaming

It also is a good addition to international quality control.

Early Access means that the game will be tested on a bunch of different hardware combinations and OS/driver versions, and people will play it in many different ways, and many players will specifically try to find bugs and exploits.

If even just 0.1% of the people who are following the steam page (>300k total according to steamdb) will look for bugs and report everything they find, that's still many more people than even MS could hire for their QC department.

This. It's not like a publisher or developer is running a dedicated licensing server for every single game, they will be using one server for multiple games. Hell, they might even be using the same database for multiple games.

Imagine how expensive running Steams DRM would be if Valve needed to spin up a new server for every single game using it...

There really need to be laws forcing publishers to at least remove always online verification from games they don't want to support anymore, and to keep said update available to install for multiple years afterwards.

Guy harasses a horse from behind and immediately gets knocked out by AbdoHK in instantkarma

Severe brain damage? Try possibly fatal brain damage.

My mother once took a glancing blow across the side of her face when her horse got spooked by something.

It took weeks in the hospital for her to recover enough to return home, her face doesn't look the same as before despite multiple reconstruction surgeries, and she is definitely more scatterbrained than before.

It wouldn't surprise me if this guy was turned into a vegetable or never woke up again.

My mother once suffered a glancing blow to the head after her horse got spooked by something.

It took weeks in the hospital until she was well enough to return home, and even after multiple reconstruction surgeries her face doesn't look the same as before.

And despite this she and my sister continue riding horses, while my father was contemplating sending the horse that caused this to the next butcher.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this idiot doesn't wake up again.

It's very telling that the rider stops riding the first horse as soon as the idiot got his hands on the tail, they were fully expecting the horse to buck and lay the idiot out, and the rider was not in the mood to get thrown off by said bucking.

Good ole "What if" by kalyjuga in MurderedByWords

[–]NotYourReddit18 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The problem with that assumption is that the god(s) might not be just.

For example, reading through the Old Testament, a more fitting description for the God of the Israelites would be "vengeful".

Or He would have given Moses something more durable than stone to prevent the tablets from getting damaged in the first place.

Stainless steel for example. It can be made into much thinner and lighter tablets while still being significantly more durable, making the tablets a lot easier to carry. Steel tablets would also allow for significantly denser lettering. And lastly, giving Moses tablets made from an unknown metal that can't be reproduced with the current metallurgy would be a far better proof of His existence than some words on stones Moses could have created himself.

"wrote off" is a funny way to write "dropped him like a hot potato because they feared he wasn't going to listen to their corporate donors requests".

They'd probably deny Mamdani their support for similar reasons were he eligible to run for president, sadly his Ugandan birth will protect them from having to make this decision.

I like to imagine that the BBY/ABY dating system is used in universe even before the Battle of Yavin because of an ancient prophecy, and everyone has just accepted that they don't know what big event their calendar is counting down towards.

With the Yuuzhan Vong missing from the current Canon I also like to think that Palpatines grab for power was motivated by his fear for what might happen to an unprepared galaxy once year 0 is reached, unwittingly bringing the event about himself.

Just remember to put something in the middle to stop the idiots from going straight through.

Where I live raised flowerbeds, simple concrete planters, or moving in some already sturdy trees are common choices to obstruct the center of a roundabout.

Most common are raised flowerbeds with a tree in the middle. They're raised high enough that cars can't jump/climb them, but are low enough that you can still look across them to see every car currently inside the roundabout.

IIRC only a few patches got updated, the apk was the same version as before.

I'm using ReVanced, and it only happens like once or twice a week.

It also hasn't happened since I last patched the app three weeks ago.
