Why would they use buckshot? Wouldn't bird shot be better against drones?

Communities tend to attract like minded individuals. It's not that everyone is exactly the same, but those that are very different or have very different opinions don't generally stay for long. That said, even within those like minded individuals there's a wide spectrum of opinions.

For me there are a handful of topics I know I'll get down voted for sharing, because it goes against the majority. And that's fine, it doesn't stop me from sharing my opinion, and I don't really mind the downvotes. I think in general though as long as you're able to share your opinion with nuance and self awareness, and it's not something mean or hateful people will hear you out.

This entire post is about a woman that was shot and paralyzed for not wearing a hijab. Stop deflecting. It's absolutely fair to criticize bad things done in the name of Islam. Feel free to create a separate post about bad things done in the name of Christianity, I'm sure you'll have no issue finding numerous examples. But stop distracting from the oppressive environment women find themselves in in modern day Iran.

And 1/3 of 100 is 33.3333333333333. There are strong arguments for a base 12 number system (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duodecimal), and some folks have already put together a base 12 metric system for it. 10 is really quite arbitrary if you think about it. I mean we only use it because humans have 10 fingers, and it's only divisible by 5 and 2.

That said, the best argument for sticking with base 10 metric is that it's well established. And base 10 time would make things more consistent, even if it has some trade offs.

The advantage of 12 and 60 is that they're extremely easy to divide into smaller chunks. 12 can be divided into halves, thirds, and fourths easily. 60 can be divided into halves, thirds, fourths, and fifths. So ya, 10 isn't a great unit for time.

Maybe as a social signal for other humans.

I still remember when everyone was talking about this to show Trump fans what a piece of shit he is. How naive we were back then, I think you're right that him saying that just made the crazies love him more.

They're not really in need of rescue though, they're on the ISS. Their return vehicle is just a pile of garbage. Thanks again, Boeing.
