A composite image, showing how big the Andromeda Galaxy would appear in the sky compared to the moon, were it sufficiently bright. Andromeda is 2.5 million light-years away. The sheer scale of interstellar distances and objects is crazy !

Yeah I think we are in a bit over our heads. There is no owners manual for spaceship Earth. Even if there were it would be ignored or selectively followed at best. Between global warming, political instability, collapse of society, wars, nuclear weapons, marauders, chemical warfare, viruses, famine, disease, terminators, ice-nine, natural disasters, meteorites, alien invasion, etc...planet is doomed.

I used to have this poster as a kid. One day I lit off a mortar shell in my bedroom and it caught on fire.

Cholesterol isn't a problem, it was yet another distraction, one of many falsely demonized dietary boogiemen that got scapegoated to keep the attention away from sugar. Cholesterol is fine! Eat yer eggs! Or don't! Whatever!

 :)) That should work until the bread gets soggy. They needs to toast it first to enhance structural integrity.

HRrrrrmmm..... They probably have to put the screws in Before toasting, otherwise screws will probably split pre-toasted bread...

In terms of sogginess, the mounting periphery can be flame glazed with honey or sugar to harden against moisture.

Yes but this is how you get ants since they will find the tasty sugar infused bread and nibble it to shreds. After toasting if you pre-drill holes for the screws this might prevent cracks but I agree it should be screwed first and then toasted.

The monowheel was invented over a 100 years ago but ok.  The future...  I'd rather just enjoy beeple's artwork than live in a dystopian future in which we all have to wear hermetically sealed suits.  Whatever floats your boat I guess.

I can't wait until the UK embraces the actual future of transportation: electric ****ing cars.
(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

I'm curious what the percentage of hybrids and electrics are in the UK. Over the past decade up to present it really does seem like every other vehicle I see in the US is either fully electric or a hybrid. I probably see about 20-30 Teslas a day alone, let alone Prius which seem like the new Camry for most common vehicle on the road. Is it the same over in the UK? Weren't they talking about banning carbon emission vehicles or something?

Electric is good for the environment,  but it's actually just a PITA for current adopters.

The thing to watch out for is AI-Self Driving.    THAT is truly game changing.  Now ha(krs can assassinate you while you sleep your way to wurk.

Oh I know all about SDV tech, believe you me. I am super nervous every time I see a Tesla driver using that feature and always steer clear of them as a ped because I can tell you for absolute certainty Tesla's tech is not up to safety standards and was implemented way WAY too early. They use a camera-based system which is super ****ing dangerous. Think about when you are driving and how much you cannot see. Blocks ahead, behind objects, around corners, etc. A camera-based system solves NONE of the inherent faults human drivers have. IMO the only and safest way, albeit more expensive both financially and in time, is to map an AI machine learning system through radar data collection. Driverless vehicles need to be BETTER than human drivers, not equal to. It is insane to me how Musk got away with government allowing Tesla to use the self-driving feature based upon the committee knowing absolutely nothing about the technology. Musk is the monorail guy from The Simpsons.
