Not to forget that if it’s glowing red, it may be hot enough to set your head on fire the instant you stick it in your mouth. So do not eat anything that’s glowing red from black-body radiation

If it’s red from black-body radiation, you should be more than fine with regards to contaminants.

You should be more concerned with nutrition. Or the current complete lack thereof. After all, anything healthy has by that point gone up in smoke.

I think there are two valid scientific/philosophical answers without taking religion into it, based on one question:

Are we specifically talking a chicken egg, or the concept of an egg?

In the former case, eggshells contain compounds that cannot exist in nature, and must come from a creature. a chicken egg cannot exist without a chicken before it, thus the chicken came first.

In the latter case, various evolutionary splits happened between animals evolving egg developing capability and some animals evolving into chickens. From this we can say that the egg came before the chicken.

Worst case, this solved exactly nothing. Best case, it can be an exercise in reasoning.

City “twinning” goes beyond the EU. And it can happen for all kinds of reasons. My favourite example is the towns of Dull, Scotland, Boring, Oregon and Bland, New South Wales.

NGL, Orphaniser or Orphanizer sounds like one hell of a metal band name

Apparently the UK still uses stone as a step above pounds. Then again, the UK is a hot mess when it comes to units…

So put your hands down my pants and I’ll bet you’ll feel nuts

Nah. The bigger fuck you is still calling it twitter with no acknowledgement of the name change.

An even bigger one would be calling it a centralised Mastodon alternative 😜

Sweat baby, sweat baby, sex is a Texas drought

Or of course the WoW parody:

Haha, well now, we call this the act of gaming. But there are several other very important differences between real people and pixels that you should know about.

Oh god he just jumped in!

Re: legally a train
Metros and anything lighter are governed by different laws than trains. So German U-bahn is legally a tram, governed by the BOStrab, while S-bahn is legally a train, governed by the EBO

A step heavier. For the London example, think more like the Overground, the Purple Train or Thameslink. Or the many railways radiating out.

For other examples, think systems like the LIRR in NYC, the RER in Paris or the S-bahn in most major German cities. (though the Berlin one functions more as a metro that’s just legally a train)

Not quite, someone started it already.

It may be a little while before it gets more mainstream though…

Dried cranberries coated in chocolate.
I call them crackberries.

Health & safety officers who are carrying MP5’s with underslung grenade launchers… They seem to be taking their job very seriously indeed…

I’m pretty sure France is one of those places and they have an amazing track record.

Even better: reprocess the fuel. The linear fuel life time decommissions nuclear fuel as useless while it still has 90-something percent of energy potential left. Having a more cyclical life cycle allows for the spent fuel to be reconstituted into new fuel, and to be used anew. All the waste that does end up being produced is only a fraction of the waste produced in a linear process, and only dangerous on a societal timescale instead of a geological one.

Damaged equipment and building might be applicable as well. Seems “army” is not a thing that can be filled in in the “summoned” section.

The lead scientist seems to be handling it… Surprisingly well…

… What a terrible day to have eyes, I must say…
