Not sure why you're getting down votes, I agree totally. I mostly only follow space, sports, and video game news on there. It's a great site for communication

All that orange smoke indicates it had hypergolic fuel onboard, which is toxic

You see these all the time, but they don't look like this because they're only sold commercially. Normally you see a truck box, a big tool rack/cherry picker, or a bus compartment. These are low-volume models that are designed and sold for purposes that actually require these trucks. This truck bed was a custom body job and this vehicle is probably a marketing/promotion model. No one's driving these around as their daily commuters, I doubt very many of these are even owned privately. OP is just just trying to start a disinformation circle-jerk

Lol wildly exaggerated. Largest height difference on Earth's surface is 13 miles (including underwater) vs. the 8,000 mile diameter. To quote NDGT, "The Earth is smoother than a cue ball"

I love ONI and Don't Starve is hard for me to get into. ONI is a mechanical/technical base/management simulator. I'm a huge Factorio player and ONI scratches a pretty similar itch

A Chinese show has already been released and an American one is releasing on Netflix soon. The Chinese version can be streamed on Viki. I'm about 1/3 of the way through (30 episodes) and I'm absolutely loving it. They don't dumb down any of the details with the science and is staying very true to the books so far. You just have to be willing to watch a subtitled show

I'm happy to be surprised but I doubt I'll like the US version as much. Nearly every US book adaptation I've watched has been dumbed down "for a wider audience" and changed quite substantially (looking at you, Silo and Beacon 23). This is also coming from D and D of GoT infamy, so we'll see if they can turn their track record around. At least this book is finished so they have the entire source material to work with

Second sentence of the update, and it's in bold. Yes, it sounds like players will be able to travel

Too many bugs, not quite vegan

Do you remember the model number? I'd be curious to look into it

Pretty sure everyone knows that the power setting on the microwave just changes the duty cycle of the magnetron. I've never seen a microwave specify wattage when selecting power, usually 1-10 or 1-100, no lies involved. What it does is allows the heat more time to evenly distribute through your food while cooking with the same amount of energy. That super hot bowl and tepid soup won't have as much of a difference when it takes twice as long to cook. Hot spots don't get a chance to get as hot. Psychologically it's easier too because let's be honest, no one's waiting 5 minutes after that timer goes off for the heat to settle

During the day it's white, but it's also overhead and blindingly bright so we don't spend much time looking at it. As it gets closer to the horizon Rayleigh scattering begins filtering out the bluer light and the sun becomes yellow, then orange, then red. It also gets closer to our eyeline and becomes mildly safer to look at so we look at it a lot more. This in turn leads us to believe it's always yellow

Only one if it's bad enough to break skin and gets infected. Or you could also imagine someone stubbing their toes so often and badly that they lose all 10 toes and survive, can't stub your toe anymore if you don't have any
