So fucking embarrassing, jfc. Few things annoy me more than French companies doing basically a parody of what Americans think French is like to name their products.

Seems crazy that maths has remained the one field where the "one super nerd working on their own for years comes up with something new and significant" model still works when that's been basically totally dead in any other scientific field I can think of for like 100 years

I think lying in declarative surveys is the biggest part of this story

Given how they talked about a "perceptually flat screen" and "minimizing crease visibility" I highly doubt it. At the end of the day it's not actual glass and it's never going to have the flatness and smoothness of Ceramic Shield no matter what they do.

Napoléon fandom is definitely quite popular on the far right and I'm not sure how many of them know the difference between Napoléon 1er and III so yeah they probably do

Have you tried the wet food that comes in small individual pouches? It's a lot more expensive and the packaging is appalling but you can just squeeze it out quickly without having to spoon it

Do you know that Jesus was sometimes pictured with an actual magic wand in the early Christian era? Not for this story afaik but often for the Lazarus resurrection miracle (youtu.be/AO1nGsQ2MXE?...)

Seems like it. Concrete production is also a major problem with no real solution. We really need effective carbon capture asap

Île de la Réunion is similar too, it was uninhabited before Europeans settled there in the 1600s (much smaller landmass obv)

Am I wrong to think that movie studios actually want "backlash" from the right wing influencers because they know it doesn't amount to anything and all it does is keep the movie in The Discourse

This is not helping convince me that most of nutritional science isn't woo nonsense if another possibility than *what the thing made of* is something to be considered in a scientific paper

I always thought it was ahistorical millennialist wishful thinking from anti-capitalists. Embedding a subjective prediction into the basic description of our period doesn't work, that's only something you can say retrospectively

I mean, none of that is antibiotics. People have known wounds should be cleaned and bandaged since ancient times. But if it got infected, either your immune system could beat it… or not. People still frequently survived serious injuries though, it's not like a paper cut was a death sentence.

Thank you, I was sure I remembered that but everyone keeps talking about how the idea came out like a couple years ago. It all stems from all these idiots backfilling rational justification for the Dear Leader's nonsense from the first term.

So I'm a few chapters in and it's really awesome?? I was afraid the writing wouldn't stand up to how cool the universe seems to be but it's actually good. Love that the guy is an archivist and archeologist (well more like pillager but eh). Does this mean I'm gonna start painting figurines soon

If there's one episode of TV I wish I could force everyone to watch and internalize, it's the 30 Rock where Liz, who has always seen herself as a bullied nerd underdog, finds out she's actually been hated all her life because she's mean.

very funny to read walter lippmann capture the basic dynamic of 21st century housing politics in 1922
A legislature dealing with a shortage of houses, such as exists when this is written, illustrates this rule, first by doing nothing to increase the number of houses, second by smiting the greedy landlord on the hip, third by investigating the profiteering builders and working men. For a constructive policy deals with remote and uninteresting factors, while a greedy landlord, or a profiteering plumber is visible and immediate.

So fascinated by those bulbs. They do feel like they represent something similar to a cornucopia and it makes sense given the rest of the imagery, so maybe the leather pouch thing is right? But bull testicles would be so much more fun.
