Counterpoint: What if Superman has an element in his body that is crucial to his makeup that is specifically destroyed/harmed by the radioactivity, while that radioactivity passes harmlessly through any other element?An anti-krypton element of sorts, if you will.
Krypton, for example, could be emitting a wave with incredibly low amplitude, but incredibly high frequency. This combination would struggle to make contact with the atoms in normally-dense objects here on Earth, but would strike an ultra-dense object like anti-krypton like a truck.
I’ve worked with military technologies before. Unfortunately, I can’t give away many details for relatively obvious reasons. However, I can tell you with absolute confidence that in the case of a ICBM with a nuclear warhead being launched, there is a close to 0 chance it will ever land on Earth. In fact, ICBMs are almost entirely useless technology nowadays.
A nuclear warhead may also be delivered via plane, a la WWII. This too, is largely a nonissue. The odds of a plane getting deep enough into a country while carrying a weapon like that while under the level of surveillance that is currently going on are again, close to 0.
There’s a reason nobody has dropped any Nukes yet. It’s not because anyone is afraid of the consequences. It’s because it’s so close to impossible for it be an actual threat.
I have an undue sense of guilt when hearing about some particular war crimes.
I believe in a past life I spoke German. I think I was reincarnated in this way at this point in history to show me the other side of what was done. I’ll do better this time
Random update: my kitties did not grow up to look like yours as much as I thought! Just about fully grown as they cross their one year mark now, but they’ve hardly changed at all haha
Have you seen the Schlep controversy? Personally, I would be glad if my family PC suddenly couldn’t run Roblox and “sorry kiddo it just doesn’t work anymore”
I give away a lot of my money. I give gifts to people I know all throughout the year, I let them use my resources whenever I can. I even hand it out to strangers when I can.
Why am I obligated to do so on this particular day of the year? I do it every other day already.
I really agree. I let my partner try out my steam deck (immutable arch instead of Fedora, but ultimately the same experience. Flatpaks and easy updates). They fell in love with it, so I bought a second one for them. It’s been a year now, running it almost exclusively on desktop mode and using it as a Linux desktop.
Yeah, my eyes instantly locked onto “gnome music” and I went “what’s this about” read the top of the meme, then finally noticed the lil gnome on the left side and went “ohhhhhh”
I believe in America the corporation is given the edge. “We didn’t say you’d get 400ml of coke, we said a medium was 400ml.” Is a legally viable argument. Its only false advertising if taking the statement at face value is provably false, a la “Red Bull gives you wings” was changed to “Red bull gives you wiiiings” because the original was provably false, and the second one can be defended as “wiiiings isn’t a real word so it doesn’t mean anything”
They’re not calling Rust unsafe. There is a memory safe mode and a memory unsafe mode in Rust, and this was built in unsafe Rust which allowed for the memory bug to be exploited
People like that kind of fill a similar niche of being rejected by society, so they fill the needs of that niche. Some good people happen to also get rejected by society, and then look on as horror as TheProblem™️ makes things are actually kind of great
I’m more confident than ever that bi/pan is secretly the most common sexuality.
In many ancient societies, being bi was the norm. Like it was actually considered close minded to be straight or gay.
Obviously this isn’t proof but I have it memorized so I’m gonna spout it off anyway, there’s a scene in doctor who where a lesbian companion gets hit on by a Roman centurion, he tells her “oh. Well I’m just normal. You know, guys and girls. But that’s okay [other centurion] is like that too.”
This is my struggle right now. Thankfully, I actually did develop my learning skills a handful of times but for the vast majority of my life I’ve just used pattern recognition to get through school. I managed to get about halfway through my degree before I started having to actually learn, but who knows if even properly learning anything will land me a job lol
