There's these large bodies of water called oceans. I believe it goes there (what with always going downhill and stuff).

More and more rain water runs off into streams, rivers and eventually the ocean because there isn't enough foliage to slow the water till it is absorbed by the soil. The foliage is typically replaced by concrete and asphalt (urban) or fields (rural).

Also the increased average temperature of the planet is causing changes in weather patterns and reducing rainfall (in many areas) and increasing the variance of rainfall causing cycles of drought and flood.

Hang on to your hats folks, it's gonna get worse before it gets better (if it will get better at all).

Well maybe if you ate a little less, we wouldn't need widebody airplanes!

Bonus: they're more scary. (HOA might complain, add their heads to the display)

The first movie was a masterpiece of being a deconstruction of superhero tropes while also being a great superhero movie. I don't think that's something you can do twice.

I'm glad they went a different route for the sequel, and even though it was not as good (literally impossible to be better, I think). I liked the sequel quite a bit except for the ending set piece.

I'm not expecting them to reach the brilliance of the first, but if they make a good movie, I'll be happy.

Or soda. Or sugary drinks in general.

What about Pluto and Charon? Their barycenter is outside Pluto.

I propose binary (and more generally n-ary) planets.

I have been using unstable on desktop for at least 15 years. Every time a new stable was released that would cause a month of just staying off updates till things stabilized. Recently it's not even had that issue.

I've had to pin a package or two in that time, but unstable has been rock solid otherwise. I even run it on my server.

There are no Linux gatekeepers. There are assholes everywhere, that's the human condition. I came across these assholes and I learnt that I should take advice and consider it myself.

If you close your brain and listen to random online people without thought, you'll have a bad time, Linux or no Linux.

This stereotype of people in Linux or open source as assholes is FUD spread by people who have a vested interest in spreading it.

I've found people mostly very helpful and courteous.

Can I please have some evidence?

 

Most of the others do, so it must be something small.
