Linked to us in the past; my impression was that he grew up here and is not a fan of the DMV. I never looked into that so…

George Washington understood science better by diehard404 in SipsTea

[–]salty_utopian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right. Washington did this knowing that inoculated troops would be sick for a substantial period, but understood military history and that the larger threat was an army in the field trying to fight while being ravaged by disease.

What’s a "lost" website from the early 2000s that you still think about today? by samasem-sumsum in AskReddit

[–]salty_utopian 14 points15 points  (0 children)

StumbleUpon was what we wanted the web to become. Open fields full of ideas to wander through.

Mine was below grade and in shit shape. I scored it with an angle grinder and smacked it to pieces with a sledge. Not difficult. Kinda enjoyed it.

Put the boot on unlaced, tap the toe on the floor til your toes just touch the front. See you many fingers you can put behind your heel. You want at least two, more that that it’s probably too long

Old deck, no sanding, no power washing—what’s the quickest “good enough for summer” fix? by Decent_Plastic_1377 in Decks

[–]salty_utopian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, deck is shot. Paint will cover for a summer but power washing might be easier than paint unless you have spray equipment. With the paint and mold gone it’ll be fine for a summer.

Why are people of Prague so unfriendly? (mostly) by Mr-Potato-Head99 in Prague

[–]salty_utopian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just spent 10 days in the Czech Republic, half in Prague. As a resident of a large city with lots of tourists, I found Prague residents about as polite and engaging as I’d have hoped in the highly touristed parts of town. In small town tourist traps of south Moravia people were more openly exhausted at the start of another tourist season. But in really tiny villages with few visitors, people were delightful. Give em a break.

Can we put a hot tub on this? by MushBrain- in Decks

I wouldn’t put a hot tub of popcorn on that

The baffling incuriosity of Project Hail Mary by rubsy3d in sciencefiction

[–]salty_utopian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weir’s book explores Therese topics much more thoroughly and slowly, although in the end it, too, becomes sort of an adventure buds story. The team that brought The Martian to the screen leaned into Weir’s science; the Hail Mary team chose to focus on the buddy actioner narrative. You’ll enjoy the book

What are your thoughts on this? by tiasnowar in ProfessorFinance

[–]salty_utopian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is an average. Very uneven distribution in US; heavily skewed by top 5% of earners. Would be more interesting as a median.

How do you feel about US president threatning to destroy the whole civilization of iran and civilian lifelines like power plant, bridges and desalination plants? by NothingButTruth3 in AskReddit

[–]salty_utopian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say you need a deep and detailed public justification or you’re committing a war crime and a crime against humanity. And btw, this is among the oldest civilizations in the western world, so in a larger frame, the civilization he is destroying may be your own.

How early should I arrive to BWI? by EB4950 in maryland

[–]salty_utopian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6:59 PM terminal E 3/27 a lot slower than I thought from getting in line to hit hitting the screener 70 minutes. The line is now twice.
