Dont they dock for repairs in TNG? Its like a Die Hard episode or something, with Picard in the McClain role.

You, uh, hold a lot of anger and hatred for someone trying to advise others how to "get over it".

The superheating thing is only an issue if you way overdo it. If you're that worried about it you could just put a tiny scratch on the inside of the vessel or toss some microwave safe anything in there.

Kettles are just easier and faster.

Jack Posobiec really is that stupid. He's an Alex Jones lackey.

The large majority of amazon profit comes from AWS. AWS accounts for around 3.5% of the entire internet. It’s also at least a third of all cloud computing.

It might be nearly impossible to avoid giving amazon your dollar if you are online.

I can't tell if that milk is overall foamy or if it's just pixelation.

Senator Clay Davis would probably just say "shit" like a normal person.

This is one of those points that, although correct, is so vague as to be largely pointless unless discussing miscommunication or something of the like. Or are you suggesting we are never allowed to talk about sentence structure or logic again?

If you aim a laser on a window it can detect the vibrations of sound hitting it. Pretty much the same as placing your ear up against it, except that a laser can do it from far, far away. You can counter this by installing devices on the windows that actively vibrate them, drowning out the sound.

What's interesting with this technique is the sideways applications. I've heard you can use a chip bag to the same effect. Also, apparently you can actually figure out what someone is typing just from the audio. So with just audio you can eventually figure out their computer passwords.

Modern Israeli politics aside, and thats a huge aside, saying that antisemitism doesn't exist is a bold claim seeing as the one thing you can bet on existing pretty much any time and any where in the last couple millenia is antisemitism.

I'm not Jewish. I have no dog in this race. I just like going down history rabbit holes and it always makes me laugh when "Opinions on Jewish People" seems to show up randomly as a section on the wiki. Almost like it's a genetic predisposition in some people. It's fascinating.

Imagine being so blinded by bigotry that you think that transgender people, of all the fucking groups, were the one group that nazis were totally cool with.

The stated goal of the Ig Nobel prize is to highlight science that first makes people laugh then makes them think. Its not the razzies. Its not laughing at science its having fun with it.
