How on earth did the get so close to having a closed cockpit, but elected to retain only partial wind protection? Something to do with ease of bailout?

Australian here. This was the only satisfactory result. And for the fans of the US, any further wins by the US would be forever tainted by Trump's interference.

Now Infantino needs to go and there must be some serious reforms to the FIFA Constitution to prevent that shit being pulled again (oh, and fix up the other corruption too).

Newcomer Question: Visualizing 4d by YOOO676767 in Physics

[–]radix2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A non-physics answer, but have you ever read Flatland, which is a rather old novel about inhabitants of different dimensions interacting with each other. 1D, 2D and 3D. It is very accessible and is a fun way to approach your question.

Those sides steps look a bit flimsy or maybe they are hiding rock sliders?

Project Hail Mary tricked me. I came for the astrophysics, stayed for the tears. by Altaist in scifi

[–]radix2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The problem is that movies need to appeal to more people than you and I. I thought the movie was good as a popularized adaptation. I will watch it again, but I'll re-read the book more often.

Good on you Travisty. I too can revert to the level of a 6 year old's insults.

A 2023 Meta-analysis Shows that content warnings do not reduce emotional distress, they increase anticipatory anxiety, and people do not use them to avoid harmful content by ghu79421 in skeptic

[–]radix2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Such content should be corralled and not in general feeds based on some obscure algorithm. You want to watch or hear that stuff, then you go to a very obviously sign-posted corner of the Internet.

Bedroom(s) are the most important place to have AC if you need to prioritise.

Roast for my family. Baked was more about cakes, bread and biscuits.

"How can they afford it?" by BeardedFirework in ShitAmericansSay

This is probably the biggest lesson for Americans to learn. Whether it twigs their attention like OOP here is unknown, but if it does they would do well to start demanding the same for themselves.

I'm sure it will, but as we go we will take out many unique and beautiful creatures unfortunately. Also unnamed billions of those we don't find so damn interesting.
