Does anyone have a link to the actual Russian text?

Has anyone actually confirmed that those guys are actually ICE? Because they look like I could pretend to be ICE and get away with it.

Marvel still lacks a definitive solution for the problem of new potential audience members being intimidated by how much existing backstory there is.

Well, they're DEVELOPING them. They're not MAKING them yet.

“Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.”

― Douglas Adams, Last Chance to See

Does this mean that Musk's address is stored on Fastest Lab's servers?

Edit: nvm I found his address

Hypothetically, we could terraform Venus. At the very least, it shares a lot of the issues that we're trying to fix on Earth, just dialled up to 11 - its main problems are that it's way too hot, the atmosphere has way too much carbon in it (96.5% vs Earth's 0.04%), and the atmosphere has way too much sulfur (0.015% vs Earth's 0.00000002%, making the atmosphere highly acidic). So if for example scientists had an idea for causing a chain reaction in a planetary atmosphere that rapidly sequestered all atmospheric carbon but were worried about unknown strength or side effects, instead of testing it on Earth where it could kill us all, they could test it on Venus where any failures would have no serious consequences. And if it worked, not only would it mean that we fix climate change on Earth but we partially terraform Venus into the bargain.

Venus has roughly similar gravity to Earth and has a ferrous core which could hypothetically be turned molten (and therefore ferromagnetic) to provide the same kind of magnetosphere that Earth's core does. Mars has neither of these things and would therefore never be able to sustain human life naturally - Venus potentially could. On Mars, the atmosphere is just one of many obstacles. On Venus it's THE obstacle. Solve the atmosphere, you solve Venus.

All four games are available for cheap on GOG, though, and with GOG once you own them you own them forever. I suppose online play is appealing, but judging by the SF 30th Anniversary Collection, the lobbies aren't likely to be very active.

I repeat: kidnapping?

Well everyone, even "normies", accepts that "hangry" is a thing. So it really shouldn't be surprising that our eating habits are so directly related to our mood and state of mind.

My understanding is that we still don't know what it IS, but we now have corroboration that it EXISTS and roughly what it WEIGHS.

No, catholics (generally) believe that worldly goals are accomplished by worldly methods. Worshipping god isn't intended to accomplish anything in this life: it's intended to secure a place in heaven.

Mind you, I'm atheist; I'm not saying it actually DOES secure a place in heaven. I'm just pointing out that for genuine believers, prayer is not intended, primarily, to accomplish worldly ends. It sometimes INCLUDES requests for personal worldly aid, but a priest would scold you if he knew that's ALL you prayed for. You're supposed to thank god for giving you existence, ask for the strength to live more virtuously, ask for leniency on your imperfections, etc.

I'm glad we have you to tell us what is and isn't culture worth preserving; we were at real risk of having a diversity of opinion for a moment there.

Kidnapping?

Many hospitals are also run by the church. Catholics believe in science - all recent popes say evolution is fact.

Obama's been gone almost a decade at this point and we still have yet to pass this bill because the government always backs down at the last minute in the face of threats from the US that it would "force" US companies to not do business with us. The Dáil (parliament) supports the bill but the cabinet shoots it down. So you're not wrong to be cynical, but every time Israel commits some fresh outrage the pressure grows for the government to pass it or risk losing the next election.

To be specific, Ireland isn't in Schengen because the UK isn't in Schengen and we're trying to keep the border as non-bordery as possible.

Oh, and let's not forget:

A lot of those, I wouldn't consider PC mascots as their games are on console too. They'd be more like multiplatform mascots. Doom was on the SNES for example. But there are some games that just aren't the same unless you're playing on PC.

If they found his car they must know who he is and what he looks like. Shouldn't they be putting his picture on the news?
