Do we really need people to look down on that much that it warrants these comments? Don't get me wrong, he is a jerk and behaves like a teenager while 65, but people here act like he jumped a barrier to shit in a millenia old sarcophagus instead of pressing his thumb into 100 year old wood. I think I may have done worse at my old school.

This site's against a police state, but wants the government to crack down on this nuisance with all its might. We're against Religion, but Japan's emperor cult is sacred. Throw molotovs into governmental buildings, but don't you dare touch this wooden arch.

Just let him pay the fine, have the sites insurance cover restoration, big whoop.

Apart from them straights not being a Monolith, I feel there is a difference between not being represented and being actively excluded. You know, one is bad and one is worse.

You can and should leave a "Need a ____ tag" at the forum then. Don't know why the article is so snarky about that, the poster of that seemed reasonable enough on the first 2 pages.

Say what you will, but implementing all manners of tags so users can express themselves, just to specifically leave out one is exclusion. "Move aside, heteros, this is our game!".

You can argue that they deserve it, that the developer has no obligations, that they are represented everywhere else and that they should play those game instead, but it remains exclusion.

Fewer parts = fewer parts that can fail.

Boeing should look into this.

The human of the future:

"Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?"

• Henry II, exercising his right to free speech.

Before you fantasize how this could be used in humans in the future, producing that single thought cost more energy than leaf sheep produce via photosynthesis in their lifetime - feeding of it requires energy efficiency any warm-blooded animal just isn't suited for.

Still cute though.

I try my best Michelle, but I am literally not allowed to vote in US elections.

The ones I am allowed to participate in however do benefit in fucking over US-Politicians at least somewhat.

So you would say it's fair if he had said "It's called Japan" instead? They glorify their recent past as well.

I don't think how places used to be plays any part in how funny insulting them is. Despite being as powerful as the UK when it was last relevant and worse, I think people would still be offended if he said Japan instead. "Always OK to hate colonizers" as someone put it my butt, the internet just really wants to make fun of France and not feel bad about it.

Isn't it super normal to move and turn while sleeping? Is sleeping on the left side so much better that doing it for the first hour only has a noticeable impact? Or do you also need a weighted blanked to keep you in place for it to have that effect?

Sounds like pseudoscience to me.

"Return of the Obra Dinn" is the best Detective-type game I have ever played. Pure inductive, yet always logical reasoning. The setting of an Victorian ship, the 1-Bit artystyle, excellent ost and memorable story really elevate this recommendation to a must-play.

On something from this decade, Balatro is great if you like cards and rouge-likes. But it's been so popular I don't think anyone interested hasn't heard of it yet.

Oh, and as others have pointed out and I'd hate myself for not mentioning it, Tunic is great as well. It's a love-letter to the instruction book, and makes one really feel like playing an old game and relying on an instruction book, while not being all that great at reading, like some may remember from their childhood. But with modern game design and what others call Dark-soul mechanics (idk, I have never played a Fromsoft game).

Toasters. Specifically the Sunbeam Radiant Control toaster, with the tag line "Automatic Beyond Belief!". There is a fan site (https://automaticbeyondbelief.org/, excellent url). Like, what other appliance line has a fan site? Surely no modern day toaster!

But of course I first heard about it from Technology Connections video.

It might just be my personal experience, but I am German and my personal birth rate has been steady all my life.

To add anything of substance here, there's a good ol Kurzgesagt video on this. TLDW: Global phenomenon, hard to predict, just investing more money on parents and their needs has been tried and did not really work. Governments should still try to ease the burden of new parents because Jesus Christ they have it hard enough.

Somewhere else I heard that maybe our pessimistic look at the future is to blame and we should try to spread optimism more (or lay the foundation for a better future so people can actually be optimistic), but that's less well researched. Not least because optimism isn't easily quantifiable.

Let the language which is without sin cast the first stone.

Tomorrow.

I like the Rock of Ages 2&3 soundtracks myself. Classic music transformed into video game ost is fun.

Uninformed take. First of, we are working on killing off only a few, malaria carrying Mosquito species in certain regions. Whatever niche they leave will be filled by another, possibly native species of Mosquito.

2nd, nutrient transfer my butt, they carry like 1ml and that's mostly water. You definitely transfer more nutrients by having some ants in your compost bin.

"Sheen, this is the 7th week in a row you've shown CRISPR modifications to the mosquito genome to curb malaria in class"

Comments are all the same as when they made mosquitos infertile, unable to spread malaria or wingless too.
