I have a pixel 7 and it’s totally garbage. I read a tip that you should set your fingerprint with the brightness on as low as it goes, and in a dark room. It’s better with that tip, but still shite.

And now we’re in the “is burning up thousands of satellites bad?” phase of space exploration. I’ll be waiting for spacex to do the right thing.

maybe to wait to have at least some hard number looks like a good idea.

Good plan. So they’re holding off on starlink launches to let the science catch up, right?

I fully expect they did. I think this is partly why Elon went from “there’s no planet B” to a Saudi simp. Way to much money to be made to waste time on the concerns of scientists and the welfare of the planet.

If they’re taking tips from Google, why would they get better?

Do they call you HubertManne the bridge builder?

Lol! I hear that’s a popular site in Port Elgin. That’s where all the big cunts live.

Unfortunately it seems ratemytwat.com is under construction 😢

All of them?

Much like everytime you see “nothing burger”

I usually take the chess/checkers idiom to be more like “the left hand didn’t know what the right hand was doing” Not that one is smart and one is dumb, but that they’re going in completely different directions and playing by different rules.

Haven’t you heard about “the dead internet theory”?

Mercury boils at 356.7©

As I understand it, the danger is the vapour. It boils at a high enough temperature that it’s supposed to be safe for handling.

Well I see now I commented on the wrong thread.

That squiggly line is the Mississippi river.

While using rivers to divide states may seem conceptually simple, the natural tendency of river courses to change over time has caused complications. If you look carefully at maps and legal history, there are numerous territorial oddities and disputes that have arisen over the years.

For instance, a series of earthquakes in 1811-12 shifted the course of the Mississippi River in a way that stranded two Tennessee towns—Corona and Reverie—west of the river in what seems like it should be Arkansas. Upstream, the same earthquake, and a lack of precision by early surveyors, left a bit of land known as the Kentucky Bend completely surrounded by parts of Missouri and Tennessee. Meanwhile, Kentucky and Indiana have engaged in a protracted debate about which state owned a piece of land near Evansville that connects to Indiana if the river is low but becomes an island if water is high.

I know what a watershed is, we’re talking about borders between states.

Draw a squiggly line that follows the river. You get the left side, I get the right side. The river moves as rivers do. After 100 years we do a survey and find I have a big chunk of property that used to be my side of the river but the river moved towards me and now that’s on your side of the river. I’ve lost some land due to some being on the other side of the river and more due to the land I used to have being a river now.

Is the boundary between us the water and we put up with the uncertain nature of our property, or do we honour the line drawn 100 years ago even though the river isn’t anywhere near there now?

What happens when the river moves though?
