The bacterial mix would probably be very different, but I don't see why the anaerobic critters couldn't finish the job.

Depending on the quantity and the leidenfrost effect, you might be fine

Assuming they were wearing a space suit, probably nothing very different from ordinary decomposition except the lack of insects

Eh, it's pretty common in a lot of other countries as well. Those with significant Muslim populations, and even countries like Norway.

What's happening to RPS? I've been seeing more and more articles from them about games the writer has never played, with no useful information. Like this one, basically copy and paste of the patch notes and a summary of steam reviews. Used to like them for in depth game reviews, guess that's going the way of the dodo.

So fuck the doctors, because they're damned if they do, damned if they don't?

No, just brain damaged from oxygen deprivation

Didn't even realise it had been released. Just looked it up on steam, the reviews are... Not encouraging.

The corollary of "there is no lesser evil", is "there is no greater evil". You're saying that there is absolutely no crime that could be committed that would be worse? Like, say, genocide AND a descent into fascism? Maybe flavored with a nice sprinkling of loss of women's rights?

Not sure why you think it was intentional. The error could have been around since the 1st iphone and they just discovered it due to current political tensions, for all we know.

Can we get the Israel flag to come up when we type 'genocide'?

I either live in the right part of the world, or the wrong part, because I've never seen this stuff.

No offence, but you need to learn the difference between someone implying their experience is universal and a post simply just not being about you

They were willing till prosecute, jail, and drive their postmasters to suicide, what's a $5 fine?

How quickly they forget their origins...

The earth sweeps up tons of space dust, including metal dust, on a daily basis. Why is there any reason to think satellites burning up behave any differently?

This was thoroughly torn apart in another thread.

Some of the top results: >> “Meteors only contain trace amounts of highly conductive metals” Solter-Hunt said. “Satellites, on the other hand, are basically entirely made of superconductive metals.” > 7% of meteorites that strike Earth are either entirely metal or partially metal. Additionally, the metallic ones are usually larger than the stony ones. I’m sure a PHD knows this, so I’m guessing the author of the article didn’t include some context.

The link in that passage says that the newer, bigger Starlink satellites are only 800 kg in total mass. I’m not entirely sure how an 800kg object leaves 1300+ kg of “charged dust” upon re-entry.

“Satellites are mostly made of aluminum and aluminum is a superconductor,” Solter-Hunt said. "Superconductors are used for blocking, distorting or shielding of magnetic fields. “Though 100 Kelvin is still pretty chilly – that’s about -280 degrees Fahrenheit – this is an enormous increase compared to bulk aluminum metal, which turns superconductive only near 1 Kelvin (-457 degrees Fahrenheit)”

It doesn’t get that cold in LEO or GEO, so I’m not sure why the author of the paper is bringing that up. This paper and its author are looking more suspect by the minute.

If I hire an accountant to do my taxes, and the IRS comes after me for not having done them correctly, I would expect the accountant to be at fault.

It also makes it way easier to convert some adults
