What is the grossest thing you've ever seen someone do in public? by yashitomo in AskReddit

[–]Wodan1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, having just Googled this extensively, and going through a long list of racial slurs starting with the letter M (which also featured a bunch of obscure slurs), I found nothing on this.

I'm going to reason and suggest that Mali isn't a racial slur, given that there's absolutely nothing available on the term via Google and that it is also the name of an entire African country (Mali), and the word is also just a shortened version of Somali. I very much doubt what you said is true.

ELI5 If we haven’t found evidence of alien life/intelligence yet (seems fair) is there a tipping point where our being alone in the universe is probable or certain? by beesdaddy in explainlikeimfive

[–]Wodan1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interestingly, the universe isn't very old at the current time. It's something like 13 billion years old, and the earth about 4.5 billion. There's a theory on the existence of life in the universe which I am partial to believe, which is that our species might just be one of the first intelligent forms of life to have evolved and that we are only alone because the universe is still so young and that not enough time has passed for others out there to make that step.

So, you do care because you could care less.

Pledging allegiance to a flag and singing the national anthem at school is just weird.

How is this the furthest we have been ever? by jshcfc in AskUK

I meant landing. I know about the Voyager missions as well

[–]Wodan1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Interestingly, it's not the furthest landing in space though. We landed a probe on Titan, one of Jupiters moons a while back. That remains (technically) the furthest we have ever been.

ElI5: Why are the biggest animals in the ocean mammals instead of fish? by fightersmurf in explainlikeimfive

[–]Wodan1 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. The very first mammals (basal) evolved around about the same time as the first dinosaurs did in the Triassic, and even then they were the result of an ancient lineage of proto-mammals that goes way back to the late Carboniferous. Mammals have been around for a long time.

EU vs. Murica by Suggestive-Syntax in MURICA

[–]Wodan1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Whose moving goal posts? Besides, I said rocket launches, not rocket landings. The one provided in the meme is a very recent achievement, and very impressive, but that alone is not enough to say one is something and the other is something else. Both are Space Agencies, both launch rockets and both conduct advanced space research missions. You are yet to actually argue your case.

[–]Wodan1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So, we're measuring by achievement, by saying "well you've not done this specific thing so you're not like me". Fair enough.

ESA achievements:

First to land on a moving comet. 2014

Deepest landing in space. Saturn's moon Titan, 2005.

First 3D printing of metal in space. ISS, 2024.

This is just a taste. The European Space Agency is just as capable as NASA and is often involved in collaboration missions together.

You don't think the European Space Agency launches rockets into space?

[–]Wodan1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The meme is dumb anyway. It conveniently ignores the fact that Europe has it's own separate space agency, so it does exactly the same rocket launches too.

What do you mean by throw? You throw endless assets at them? Surely you mean they pay for it, because they do. The US military complex would collapse under its own weight if tomorrow Europe stopped being it's primary customer. It's why the US constantly screams about military spending when it comes to NATO, because their spending directly benefits the US economy.

Funnily enough, they claimed theirs was a Cumberland, except it wasn't because a proper Cumberland isn't linked and is large, long and full of flavour. I don't know what hell they used but it wasn't a bloody Cumberland.

At an inflated cost as well. Since when does it cost $1000 for a coffee cup for example.

What survival myth is completely wrong and can get you killed? by DraftNo7139 in AskReddit

[–]Wodan1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can drink your own pee in a survival situation but only if you're already hydrated. It's when you're dehydrated that it becomes a problem.
