I've eaten them before and they're pretty spicy as far as instant noodles go but just eating a fresh habanero would be a more intense sensation.

I've used a start menu alternative since I switched to 11. I get the hate for the os but it's all just been a non issue for me.

It's pretty obvious that once the sales for the game tanked after the initial release that Bethesda just wrote the game off and reallocated the resources to other projects. There is a good amount of potential in the setting if problems were fixed and mod tools were released but a lot of the bones of the game are just bland and uninteresting.

Yeah, in any workplace I've been in any physical contact would have been out of line

Franks is a classic but anyone I know makes better buffalo sauce using Crystal hot sauce and butter. It's a bit less acidic. That deli counter buffalo roast chicken is weirdly good also.

What it really meant when people talk about living fossils etc is that the morphology of the creature has changed very little. Genetically and on a cellular level there would definitely be a lot of changes from their earlier forms millions of years ago. DNA just doesn't stick around for more than a couple hundred thousand years maximum it seems so it's difficult for us to chart those changes that aren't visible in morphology. Creatures that seem to not change drastically in such long scale time usually have niches and environments that haven't changed drastically in their existence.

I found the most moral use of AI using Artifact as my news app. There is a feature where you can "Mark as clickbait" an article's title and it reads the article to generate a new title that actually is relevant to the content of the article. I think the devs have stopped development of the app though.

I used to be really confused by the "fake it 'till you make it crowd" but in the recent years I realized how far it can take you when people just think that you are rich. I really can't wait until this planet sluffs us off like fleas and something better comes along in a million years.

I wonder what portion of that is steam decks.

I think the tactical nukes will slow their ambitions for another hundred or so years. We can't take these posturing fools seriously.

Even then religious rituals is a bucket explanation used when archeologists have no idea why something is a certain way. If something is weird about an extinct animal then it's always for mate selection reasons. The same sort of thing.

Actually yes. The most distinct thing that I remember was the intense sinus pain. Like a burning pain.

I caught it in my 30s and it was two weeks of misery. I had never been that sick with a respiratory virus in my life. It's easy to see it being dangerous for the very young and old.

Raising animals for meat isn't inherently an awful thing for the environment. There is land that is useful for grazing but unsuitable for growing crops. Turning inedible grasses into meat is very useful but industrial scale grain fed and fattened meat production clearly is a problem.
