If we haven't made it off earth by then, well we are shit out of luck.

Based on current predictions that will happen in about 3.5 billion years.

So I think we will be fine.

the elm tree

Well, there is your problem, it should be ash for apple products and Birch for Android.

If you are lucky and have a eucalyptus near by they work for all phones.

Not if you are a plant.

Not having free energy yet is

Have you not noticed the bright ball of gas that lights up the sky during the day?

It bathes the earth in free energy.

If you are in sub zero Celsius

Sorry. I live where Celsius is used. I have no idea what 80F is.

I was talking about a heat index of 40C. I thought that was obvious since I mentioned Celsius in the previous sentence.

Apologies for the confusion.

That one is about extremes.

If you are in sub zero Celsius temps without proper clothing three hours is plenty to kill you especially if there is windchill in play.

On the other extreme three hours in full sun with a heat index above 40 can cause heat stroke or dehydrate you enough to be deadly as well.

experiences tend to come in waves

Considering that both sounds and visual stimuli come from waves or wave-like phenomena, that is quite a true statement even without the influence of psychedelics.

Well, one of the issues with alcohol consumption is the loss of normal inhibition responses.

So what is a general rule while sober will often fall by the wayside once a binge is in full swing.

Part of it is the reason a hair of the dog slows a hangover down.

You body will process ethyl alcohol first, before it process all the other alcohols (methyl etc) which produce much worse breakdown products and really make the hangover get worse.

When you wake up you may still be metabolising ethyl alcohol, then when your hangover really kicks in, it is the more toxic shit being processed. A hair of the dog adds ethyl alcohol back into your system, which the body then works on.

But all it really does is delay the worst of the hangover.

How long can a human go without water?

Remember the rule of 3s for survival:

    
3 minutes without air
3 hours without shelter
3 days without water
3 weeks without food


  

Yep. Back when country was about the struggles of the working class and not millionaires singing about beer and pickups.

anyone have any fond memories of his work?

Always remember, without Jim Henson, there would be no Yoda. For his creation of Yoda in the OG Star Wars alone he has a place in so many people's hearts.

The proposal issued by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau on Tuesday would subject non-bank companies that offer digital payments to a regulatory scheme similar to that for banks or credit unions.

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and quacks like a duck...

I don't remember asking you a god damn thing...

I mean if you’re getting paid in company scrips

You load sixteen tons, what do you get?

Another day older and deeper in debt

History may not repeat but it sure does rhyme a lot...
