Yeah for sure, it’s not for everyone, and getting through the whole series is borderline a chore lol.

I’m reading through The Wheel of Time for the second time right now and my experience has been different. It’s crazy how the tone changes from the first book to the last, and the amount of character development that occurs. I think each book is been better than the last, and each for different reasons.
An 8oz cup of coffee only has like 75-100mg of caffeine in it. With your 16oz cup plus an energy drink plus an Excedrin, that would be like ~400-500mg of caffeine. Assuming a typical drip coffee maker that can make 12 cups, you’re looking at a total of like ~1000-1200mg of caffeine, double or triple your estimated daily amount. So it’s kinda no wonder you felt wired that day. Extreme, sudden spikes in your stimulant intake will do that.
Right, peer pressure is a helluva drug
Reminds me of the old gif of that woman skydiving naked
So they’re really more like a switchubus
Hi, I’d like the ELICHEM5320 pls
What is it with people trying to turn the entirety of October, November, and December into Christmas?
It’s one single night, it’s not a season. Is this the Americans trying to push it on us to increase our capitalist consumption or something? I see it a LOT these past few years.
What’s next, celebrating other holidays in the actual month that they fall in?
The way I see it, there’s two options:
Pay people more. 300k, 400k, 500k, whatever it takes. Surely there’s a number that people would feel is worth the risk. The obvious downside is that increases the cost of construction.
Make the process of roofing safer - invent new safety gear or safety practices, automation equipment that can be operated from the ground, introduce legislation that encourages those practices or subsidizes the new equipment. The obvious downside is this requires upfront investment and cooperation between government and industry.
Either way, the current practice of “throw cheap immigrant labor at it until it goes away” is not tenable.
I guarantee you more people would find themselves wanting to do the work if it paid more.

I think it’s time for me to go to bed, you almost had me
I can easily get 500 megawatts with a few power towers burning rocket fuel, plus I don’t have to worry about the logistics of recycling uranium and plutonium waste.
I’m unrelated news, the Satisfactory 1.0 update is pretty great. What are we talking about again? Oh sorry gotta go build another heavy modular frames factory
He coulda just slipped the word “sentient” in to the monologue where he explains his plan. I don’t think that would have impacted pacing at all.
Thanos’ snap wouldn’t kill 50% of each survivors’ gut microbiome, it would kill 50% of all the lil buggies that compromise all gut microbiomes, and if the snap effects individuals randomly, you’d see a normal distribution (I think, I haven’t taken stats in a decade). So some survivors would retain 100% of their microbiome, some would lose it all, with a bell curve in between, probably with the peak around 50%.
because, without words we communicate with our eyes
IDK, the original and the edit both communicate way more mystique and mischievousness than the one with her eyes visible
That’s pretty much exactly how you first learn to do arithmetic. Break the (whole) numbers down into their smallest (whole) part and count em up. That’s what number lines do, or using colored blocks to visually do the addition, or any number of other techniques you use when you’re first learning arithmetic. I mean, even just knowing 3 + 3 = 6 is memorization, a shortcut form of 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 6.
I watched it on an international flight after a couple whiskey and cokes and had a great time
What’s not to get? Each of those things are tasty on their own, I’m sure they’re also tasty when combined.
