  As far as I know, they haircut was always there.

  Maybe the Lebanon should start a paper balloon launching tradition.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨yippie⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s what a chemist looks like nowadays. Including the physics undergrad course.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨owo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  You can push electrons into a capacitor if you don’t connect the other side. A few of them, but you do.

  There are electrostatic generators that work by pushing electrons on one side and pulling from the other of some insulator that moves between those two. But you can’t sustain a steady state of only one of those actions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Retvrn To Tradition⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Just to point to the people that weren’t there yet, the US made a lot of noise on the press every time they “found” some of the chemical weapons they sold to Iraq in the 80s that were stored in UN-approved deposits because Iraq had no means of destroying them.

  The danger is not they biting you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3217: Home Remedies⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  they smell bad IRL

  They smell about as bad as a feral cat. What they do is they make you smell bad if you scare them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3217: Home Remedies⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You don’t have a home remedy for removing skunk smell, removing gum from hair or curing a hangover?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Checkers, not chess.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Iran has been out of the petrodollar system since the maximalist sanctions the US imposed in 1995. Sanctioned countries don’t have a use for dollars.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨War. War never changes.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The Second World War was pretty much all done on drugs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Checkers, not chess.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You were not born when the decoupling began.

  As recently as the 1970s, the world was getting unambiguously more coupled. As recently as the 1990s, it was ambiguously so.

  And decoupling only started to really happen last year. Before that it was going in a glacial pace.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Checkers, not chess.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder if this is the final nail that will decouple the world economy from the dollar.

  But then, I suppose the plan was to decouple the world from the dollar all the time. Trump is clearly playing 5D connect-4.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fast as he can.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You mean they trying to end the world is distracting people from the time the cartoonish villains tried to take over the world?

  Yeah, it’s kind of a safe bet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proper British Passive Aggressiveness⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I mixed up the people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This community in one meme⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I think some snakes are known to be poisonous. Snakes are prey to several animals.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's going to happen to gas stations as cars electrify?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They won’t all close at the same time. They don’t operate under the same business conditions.

  They operate under very similar business conditions, and any small difference will dictate which one will close first.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3215: Solar Warning⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Help! I’ve looked at the Sun and it’s white instead of yellow. What does that mean?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨wild⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I dunno what part the evolution deniers don’t believe in, but I imagine it’s more on the “combination of traits” one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨wild⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Many people don’t believe in it. It’s easy to understand why.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let Trump cook...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I wouldn’t take any kind of advice from Friedman…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RIP Bozo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  People usually align those things better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Twitch: "Hey, come back! This commercial break can't play while you're away."⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, right! As everybody knows, 2013 was years before the 1980s decade, and so this is the original source that inspired the movie!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨🐲 mg⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, right. Not all of them or not all of the time. At least one of those.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨🐲 mg⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There is analysis of soft material around some fossils.

  We know that they didn’t all wear adorable hats mode from compostable materials.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Twitch: "Hey, come back! This commercial break can't play while you're away."⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s from Demolition Man. An 80s sci-fi/action movie.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Riddle⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What do you mean “nowadays”? Weren’t the ancient Egyptians all pokemon fans? What else did they play on their phones?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My girlfriend found a cool vintage tube of lipstick⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  LPT: If it tells you to “drop and run”, it’s because the owner is trying you from stealing it.

  But take a close look to be sure. Some less valuable sticks look very similar but lack the warning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My girlfriend found a cool vintage tube of lipstick⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It would be all over the photo, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3211: Amperage⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Dude, the entire comic is about wires.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3211: Amperage⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My main question is where can I contract a 10000 amps connection?
