And Tasmanians, and Native Americans, and Indians, and Kenyans, and Irish…

Little sea raviolis.

I figure the world is right about where it was in 1936.

Hypersonic missiles could destroy every major city in the US in 20 minutes. Just have to put a nuclear warhead in them. The US is deploying hypersonic missiles too. This doesn’t change anything except that in the case of Armageddon we will have half as much time to find someone to bang before we die.

About 163 million out of 340 million people work. The rest are subsidized.

This Wikipedia page is going to be relevant to all our lives very soon.

They don’t intend for there to be a “next” administration.

Adrenaline makes your hands shaky and the target was moving.

It’s horrifying that I could see Greenland being his Poland and Canada being his France.

Nope. They were perfectly legal as they were ordered by the government.

In WW2, the concentration camps and the Holocaust didn’t break any German or international laws. This is the first case where the charge of crimes against humanity was used.

The funny thing is that the Nuremberg Trials were based on retroactive laws. Nothing the Nazis did was technically illegal, so they were prosecuted on the basis that their actions were decided to be crimes after the fact.

I’m betting he wants it because it looks big on a map and he doesn’t think anyone lives there.

I recently got a Kia Niro and it has buttons on the wheel for most of the basic functions of the touch screen. Really handy

I enjoyed that call exactly once, when I left Comcast for RCN.

“I’m calling to cancel my service.”

“Why?”

“RCN offers twice the download speeds for half what you charge. Can you beat that?”

“…I’ll switch you to cancellations.”

Maybe they will have an upgraded version with a large rubber nose and a moustache.

There have been several people, men and women who run a marathon every day for months or even years on end. In that sense there is no upper limit, but those people almost certainly all have a genetic mutation which most people don’t that prevents lactic acid buildup.

Most marathon runners have a lower body fat than is considered medically healthy and their toe nails pop off during the race, so we are already 2/3 of the way there.

That set is inclusive of every official marathon ever ran, so no it is not a single sample. We see consistently that the women’s record always is slower than the men’s record.

Longer stride length also equals a heavier body weight to move. I’m sure there’s some sort of graph where the vertex represents the most efficient combination of those factors.
