My name’s Buck, and I’m here to party.

I hate to defend her, but there was no tirade about flat Earth.

“May as well just go all out and say it. The Earth is flat, birds are government drones, and we’ve never set foot on the moon, and Joe Biden received 81 million votes in the 2020 election,”

Basically she was being facetious. If that last statement about Biden wasn’t there, I might have been convinced she believed these things, but she’s equating those statements with the “lie” that Biden got more votes than Trump in 2020.

Same here. Evolution doesn’t work that way. It’s basically the opposite. Species don’t evolve to solve a problem, they evolve randomly and sometimes that solves a problem for them. Or sometimes, it pushes the species into a very narrow niche where its survival is ensured as long as the current extremely precarious situation they find themselves in doesn’t change.

If you’re digging a hole to bury a body, it should already be big enough that you can just toss another body in with it.

It runs fine on Linux.

It’s true that most people wouldn’t know, and probably wouldn’t look that far into things before buying a game. Fortunately Steam’s refund policy is pretty good for this kind of situation.

They’re playing poker.

By this, they mean “We made a bad movie, and for some strange reason people didn’t want to see it. We’re confused.”

Hey Ma! It’s that weird fucking cat again!

Bernie has been on the right side of basically every political issue for over 6 decades, that’s why.

Either mine don’t have the coating, or I’m immune to it somehow.

Your math is wrong.

Ok maybe you’re not a fascist country, but you’ve been dipping your toes in the fascism pool for decades, just waiting for the water to be warm enough.

That was the Arecibo observatory

They’re like Maltesers

The oil filled ones are still conductive/convective. They heat up the air that is directly in contact with them which then spreads around the room. You wouldn’t feel the heat radiating out from across the room, for example, but if you touch the surface, it would be uncomfortably hot.

Which is kind of funny because of miscommunication, they thought they were naming a grisly bear.

It’s easy to say that, but the GOP already got their man on the inside there as well with Louis DeJoy.

Maybe you should think on that a little.

I’m sure there are. I don’t think I’ve seen any that are radiant only, but I have seen some that use a dish reflector to direct the radiant heat.

A space heater in space could only transfer its heat through radiation instead of conduction and convection, so only a small portion of its heat would escape. It would get hotter and hotter until it melts and stops working.

Essentially, that’s how the ISS regulates temperatures. It has big external panels that radiate excess heat into space because there’s very little matter up there to conduct heat away.
