I vaguely “knew” that alembics, retorts, and calcinators were things because of some fantasy book or another. Morrowind taught me what they were.

Would killing the main breaker at least prevent the heating of the pipes so that the expert isn’t walking into a potentially dangerous situation?
That would explain a lot of policies…
And Dick Cheney.
I was using outperform in the evolutionary sense. As in they stick around
I mean, not exactly. Cancer currently kills us because it figured out a version of immortality that will currently outperform your cells.
It is theoretically possible for our cells to mutate in such a way that they have the specific genes that certain jellyfish have, allowing them to become “immortal” by not continuing ad infinatum, and instead having the cell “rebirth” itself like the legendary Phoenix.
Rather than what cancer currently does, which seems to be, a cell forgets how to die and starts replicating its mutated form out of control.
Ted Cruz had better not be Deadpool.
There is so much stupid shit that you can get away with in the military, I have never understood why anyone would even get close to breaking the fraternization rules. They literally give you a copy of the rulebook in boot camp! Did no one read the damn thing?
I was a Nuke though, so up to my neck in daily fires to put out. No time for a social life.
Happy Cakeday! 🍰🎂
Those washers are not useful for bedding. For everyday clothes they’re great.
I think Bouncy Pork will be ok, unless people keep throwing shit at her.

I recently discovered the Gigastructural Engineering mod to Stellaris, guess I also need to get The Machine Age DLC at some point…
Needless to say I’ll be messing around in Stellaris for the foreseeable future.
I don’t care for capitalism, but Adam Smith was an abolitionist. He absolutely hated slavery because he believed it to be immoral firstly, and economically inefficient secondly. He couldn’t prove the second part, but once someone at either Cambridge or Oxford did manage to prove it, Great Britain and Europe outlawed slavery. Again, I’m not defending capitalism here, and I’m certain, from the tone of The Theory of Moral Sentiments, that, were he alive today, Smith would be railing against Capitalism. I’m just pointing out that it was supposed to be abolished far quicker than The Civil War.
That’s a quote from the movie Snatch
It may have been a hundred or two billion. I haven’t read the proposal in over a decade, and I just remember that the number, while large, was still a rounding error compared to the US budget.
That was my argument back then. Someone eventually explained to me that lakes are freshwater and seas are saltwater, so that made that make sense.
Too little when dealing with Hitler.
