The sun is not a big light bulb in the sky. It's a ball of gases powered by nuclear fusion. Anything that goes into the sun will very quickly become disassociated into more elemental gases. The only places in the sun that it is cool enough to form molecules is in sunspots where it is just barely coo... |

You are also using fresh garlic and not that stuff in bottles? The art of cooking is buying tasty fresh food to begin with and then tailoring recipes to best make use of the flavors you have available. If you have really good meat you shouldn't hide it in hot sauce. Fresh garlic. Last night I tried... |

If it wasn't for feminists, I wouldn't be allowed to do what I'm actually doing right now, like be able to vote without being arrested, jailed and tortured, leave my home legally without a male escort, not be married against my will, and not be tortured or jailed for disobeying or talking back to m... |

Birds are dinosaurs. Therefore, dinosaurs and humans still coexist. One time, I went to a restaurant and asked for dinosaur meat. The guy gave me fried chicken. He knew what I meant! :D True, birds are a member of the clade dinosauria. In fact, all terrestrial vertebrates are members of the Sarcopt... |

He's not declared war on all Muslims, that's just tripe. He's declaring war on the Palestinians. All that nonsense about Putin being his master, when in reality it is Kushner and Netanyahu. See, the people getting angry are the Palestinians in the West Bank, the ones that are being racially coloniz... |

Somebody in this thread seems to be unable to defend their position. Ad hominem attacks are unpersuasive, to say the least. Making them repeatedly against other members and entire institutional systems only makes me lose respect for any position you might take. https://www.logicallyfallacious.com/t... |

And then there was Andy Capp. Andy and his wife Flo would often get into fights. Sometimes Flo would win, but sometimes so would Andy. The comic strips I read as a kid sure were full of violence. 8O And this was back in the 70's-80's when adults didn't want kids to even hear the word death mentione... |

I think it's in a bubble. It's not a very good medium of exchange considering that it can only handle 7 transactions per second and takes something like ten minutes to finalize each transaction. There are ways to get around this limit by taking transactions off-chain, but they will increase the oppo... |

Algebra is indispensable in every day life. For example, without algebra, how would you know that you can add two numbers together in either order? And if you don't know algebra, you are not going to be able to progress at all in any area of mathematics. |
