  • For those wondering, it's an ice age because both poles are ice bound. We're working on it though.

    Imagine if industrialisation happened during a warm time, even now on the edge of an ice age we have hit all time records for heat and tripped tipping points that have been stable since the last interglacial. We'd already been screwed if we had been in a warmer period, as it is we're just sure to be screwed without some new technology

  • I'm a mod in a community that some hate, we automatically ban anyone who visits (or trips over it on the front page) and only down votes too many things

    Some of them have felt hard done by, but they don't want to be unbanned, they really don't want to see our content

    I wonder if the op was really just db0 being just a little more trigger happy. The "nothing" might have been down voting something that quickly attracted tens of down votes in quick succession, causing them to be mistaken for brigading. Votes cluster in time.

  • A lawyer in Canberra killed a cyclist by driving too fast on an exit ramp and missing the road on three inside of the curve where the cycle lane is and where a cyclist was.

    He was speeding, was likely drunk as he neither sought help for the cyclist nor turned himself in for several hours after the collision. All in all he was about the worst case of recklessly injuring someone and carelessly leaving them to die

    He was fined a twenty thousandth of his salary

  • I once found a huntsman spider in my car. I pulled into a playing field carpark and encouraged the spider out. It was immediately eaten by an Australian magpie

    I tried to save it, others would have crushed it. The maggie did.

  • My character that got most close to broken was a Master Of Many Forms druid, though I was playing with a group with two well skilled min-maxers who were ridiculous from the outset at level 3

    Wish can't make you great, it can't do much more than the equivalent of about half a level, you need a broken character design from the start

    Of course there's also support for epic level progression taking you beyond level 20. A druid at level 20 could face an army and win

  • If I ever come up with time travel to the past I'm taking toy train sets to several small boys

  • D&D 3.5 characters can scale pretty high

  • "Feb"+""+"uary"

  • The zeroth of March is not uncommonly used, to mean the last of February whether it's the 28th or 29th

  • Funny that the retirees read a lot. Their friends are dead and they don't have a steam account

  • Same thing that happened to the generations after x: computer games, consoles. Books were big for me when I was young, but I hardly have time to read now

    Also not much of generation X is retired

  • You can be but often aren't, especially if the pedestrian or cyclist was on the road at the time

  • I can pedal my carbon fibre recumbent up to 53km/h on the flat, and I pass cars in a 70kmh zone on a downhill exit ramp, so yeah speeds can get pretty high. It would be good if cycle racing organisations required road racers to wear appropriate PPE so ventilated protective gear could get into the general population and be seen as reasonable

    OTOH I don't think riders of slow bikes should be required to even wear helmets (they are required to in Australia)

  • Right, we bulldoze forests to make fertile land available. I agree that's bad, I don't want celery from that land either

  • I cannot eat grass, ruminant animals can. How is it inefficient for me to eat the animal rather than the grass?

  • Some people talk like that

  • Women get more UTIs than men as they have shorter urethras, so infective agents are more likely to get all the way up the urethra without being pushed out by urine
