For the last few years, I've been using butter I leave out in a covered butter dish on the counter since I learned that's fine. It's always been a stick of salted butter which I typically finish within 2-3 weeks and that's never caused any problems. I wonder if it being unsalted would really change things that much...

It's curious that the thumbnail actually has red values for those pixels, making me think they're cheating a bit with jpeg compression effects.

By that time, all the games you bought now will be public domain.

I like to think something random and really specific like this might be the Great Filter.

And I still haven't seen any taxis yet that offered Uber's transparency about trip cost before committing.

And also super expensive. I've had times where it was half the price to rent a car for the day than to get one taxi from the airport.

There are manual releases on each door inside, but I'm surprised they don't have them outside as well.

Reading more about it, I find that many only have manual releases on the front doors until recently and they have a connection point you're meant to jump with power to unlock and open from the outside. I didn't think anyone would be okay waiting for a jump to get their baby out, but then these people waited for firemen to break their window, so...

I was referencing Doom, where free energy was one of the excuses for the hell portals.

Are you suggesting we harvest portals to hell for unlimited free energy? Genius!

Last I ran the numbers, industry and agriculture used 98% of the water. This being in CA.

You'd have to know a lot about how that PSI was measured and how their jaw is sized for that to be in any way useful.

I've experienced the same and always thought PSI is a pretty absurd way to gauge puncture damage like this.

Maybe not skip them, but instead play something else over top of them like another video you like, a music segment, or cat videos.

I don't know about you, but what I learned is we'll build our own Youtube with blackjack and hookers.

The problem is it can be just as easily interpreted either way. It should seem to most of us to say, 'destroying homes creates more martyrs,' but I'm sure half the people will interpret it as, 'unprovoked attack deserves indiscriminate retaliation.' In that, it does a surprisingly good job of encapsulating how complicated the whole thing is...

I started shopping at Aldi almost exclusively and it's been fantastic.

Ah yes, of all the species we've eradicated, the one that makes up the least biomass would surely be the proverbial straw that breaks the camel's back.

They're meant to help keep the politician population in check.

IIRC, studies have also shown that the cost of the placebo had a direct correlation to the efficacy. Ah yes: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4345649/

Conclusion:

Expensive placebo significantly improved motor function and decreased brain activation in a direction and magnitude comparable to, albeit less than, levodopa. Perceptions of cost are capable of altering the placebo response in clinical studies.
