Also, for the maximum age they are the younger one. So assuming age is 30, substract 7 and multiply the outcome by 2, maximum date age is 46...

- Comment on Know your place 3 days ago:
Yup, but it's not felt like, it's how much time really passed for you.
Another one I've always liked; suppose two people (or space ships, whatever) are together in the empty space between galaxies. One of you gets a boost from an external actor, and travels 10 lightyears away at the speed of light. After that, the other one gets the same boost and joins the first. So for both, ten years have passed. But, without an external reference, there is no way to know which one moved first.
- Comment on Know your place 3 days ago:
If you could travel at the speed of light, the only tim it would take you is the time spent speedign up and slowing down. Traveling at the speed of light stops the time for you.

More like living in a place where it can be impossible to cross a short distance on foot when it wouldn't be impossible to add a walking path.

Do like the French would; Oh, you want to break up a strike? Enjoy the whole country being on strike, including the truck drivers who are now blocking all mayor roads and border crossings.
- Comment on Google deletes net-zero pledge from sustainability website 1 week ago:
reduce our plastic consumption
I'd love to actually, but most plastics get pushed on me in the form of packaging. I don't need a six pack of beer all wrapped up in plastic. I don't need bolts and nuts "conveniently" packaged per five.
- Comment on Endless struggle 2 weeks ago:
Good to hear, especially the HBP and HC being treated. My previous doctor just shrugged off my HBC at the time (2010-ish), but it should have been treated in hindsight.
- Comment on Endless struggle 2 weeks ago:
Hello fellow 49-er! Just a fyi, if this just started out of the blue one day, get your heart checked. I had the same for about a year, but after a heart attack early last year I can sleep trough the night again. I still wake up occasionally to piss, but not every night anymore.

Nothing. But there are cases of men with XX, women with XY and some others like XXY or X0.

It looks like they have strong hands. Based on this joke I think.
- Comment on Crow chasing a coyote out of his neighborhood 1 year ago:
Crows are some really ballsy animals. I saw one do a feint attack in the air on a falcon the other day, presumably so that if the falcon was carrying prey it might drop it.
On the other hand, we used to have a chicken that was so food driven, it succesfully attacked a crow who was trying to steal his food. So that one might have been less smart. I'm sure however it remembered that particular chicken.

- Comment on Some of y'all need this 1 year ago:
I've been around for 48 years, and while I have fucked around quite a bit, I have found out very little. One of my clowns isn't doing the job right.
- Comment on Growing Old 1 year ago:
Fun fact about being 48; I'm turning 50 next year, which sounds a lot. But I only feel old-ish when mentioning my age.
- Comment on Growing Old 1 year ago:
A heart attack where you have almost zero loss of heart funtion afterwards. Also, no loss of consciousness, just feeling really bad for an hour.
- Comment on Growing Old 1 year ago:
48 here. Had a minor heart attack earlier this year, so sometimes I'm starting to feel old.

- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I worked shifts as an operator in a chemical plant. Took the opportunity to work days about 15 years ago (was about 35 years old then), never had a problem with it. I didn't make any less money because of it, because the 9-5 job was a somewhat promotion. Pro's were for me being all weekends off, like all the people I know. cons were less off time between.

I don't think it's Giant Salvinia, looks more like a floating mat to me.
- Comment on Private Equity Firm Bought My Employer 1 year ago:
I meant debt indeed. And as long as the company survives, nobody is going to investigate where the cash is flowing. If it does go bankrupt, someone might. The question is, who is going to pay for the investigation to prove the wrong doing?
- Comment on How are Book Bans Constitutional? 1 year ago:
In the Netherlands, only one book I know of used to be banned (maybe it still is). The publishing rights of the work in question were claimed by the state in this instance, and they refused to allow publication of the book. The book in question was the Dutch translation of Hitlers "Mein Kampf".
- Comment on Private Equity Firm Bought My Employer 1 year ago:
You forgot that besides the patents sell-off, they'll sell just anything the company owns to another company owned by them, just to lease everything back so the company can accumulate dept. In the same trend work gets sent to sub-contractors owned by them, and consultants get hired to make sure the value of the company rises because they invest in getting better at whatever.
Also, If most off these things don't happen at your company, then all value is allready extracted and only the depts will pile up until bankruptcy.

I get that the OP asked a question, but did you have to answer it with this level of detail?
