Ah, I was thinking of Bulgarian and wondering how it could fit in this graph.

Where do you see Bulgaria in the circle?

TIL Germany is in Eastern Europe

incredibly… useless… compared to sperm generated in space

That’s what I don’t get. Transporting fresh sperm is not an issue that anyone cares about in space colonization. Sperm will get there in two ways: frozen or made on the spot.

Unfortunately true

One guy’s defense was “I thought she was dead”.

Do cops just routinely grab victim’s phones at traffic stops and demand they be unlocked so they can sit in their car and scroll through the photos? How the hell is this legal? Why ?

No, that’s not normal or legal. Which is why these guys are getting charged with deprivation of rights.

The sun and moon are tiny and relatively close. They rotate in circles above the surface at a constant distance (don’t ask why). From what I know they spend a lot more time “disproving” existing theories than finding new ones to explain their model.

It’s definitely one of the theories I’ve seen. Checking on The Flat Earth Society website I see it’s not their official position (but they acknowledge some groups do believe that). They don’t have a different theory though, just that “objects simply fall”.

The flat earth is constantly accelerating “upwards”, which is what creates the equivalent of sane people gravity. So it’s not really falling over the edge as the Earth leaving you behind.

I’ve always done that. If it’s not a contact, I let it go to voicemail. If it was actually important, they leave a message.

You put whole beans in your French press?

It’s Jake from State Farm

His Agenda47 plan also aims to restrict school content on topics like race, gender, and sexuality, dismantle diversity initiatives, and promote “patriotic values” through teacher certification and curriculum changes.

How exactly is this all going to be done without a Department of Education? One paragraph says give states more control and the next one says control the curriculum.

Nobody is giving kids alcohol

When I was a kid I always asked for a taste when my parents had a drink with the meal. It was just a sip and I never liked it and it burned (it was usually a hard spirit), but I still asked every time.

When my wife was 5 she was being sent to the still to do a taste check and see if the brandy is strong enough yet.

They said “the ones I have”, as in multiple. So I was wondering if all of them connect to everything, or each connect to some. That’s because I went on the 8bitdo website and I looked at several categories. The Xbox ones listed only various Xbox models under connectivity, the Bluetooth ones only listed Switch, the 2.4G and wired ones only listed Windows and Android.

The ones I have work on switch, Xbox, pc, android, iOS, etc.

Is there a single controller that I can use on switch, Xbox and pc?

Worked before

In my country unlimited fiber was $6/mo. Imagine the shock when I moved to the US (also in Mountain View initially). Eventually I got AT&T fiber for “just” $40/month, but now I moved to an area outside their coverage and it’s back to Comcast :(

Blue Illinois: ~17-18 electoral votes

Red Illinois: ~3-4 electoral votes

I always wondered about that. Why do states give all their electoral votes to one candidate? If a state has 20 votes and 51% of its population voted X, while 49% voted Y, wouldn’t it be fair to give 10 votes to X and 10 votes to Y, instead of 20 to X and nothing for Y?
