There was a study that found that chewing tough raw meat with human teeth is very ineffective. Fire makes eating meat much easier.
- Comment on Anon did philosophy 1 week ago:
The bills have greater value because you can carry more of them in less space and the savings in space can be used to pick up other objects.

The lighter ones can be 25-30 lbs.

Simple, you just defragment the person into drone size pieces then reassemble.
- Comment on Bird 2 weeks ago:
Honestly it’s more relevant to classify them by beak shape. Birds are 100% based on their beak shape, because that determines what they can and can’t eat.
- Comment on I watched several videos on a Combine Harvester's inner workings and I still don't understand how this thing works. 5 weeks ago:
Again, this isn’t going to work for bulk grains like wheat and corn. I’ve seen plenty of permaculture type farms and they’re fine for small stuff and vegetables and more of that is good. But it’s not suitable for growing 50 million tons of wheat. Labor is already short and it will get worse.

Covercrop is still monoculture, monoculture isn’t inherently bad. Ultimately it comes down to cost. Labor is limited and a lot of the stuff you’re talking about are fine for small volume vegetables but you’re not gonna get feed the world wheat yields from that.
- Comment on There's still no sign of Star Citizen 1.0, but it did just get a revamped referral program so the die-hards can tempt in even more saps 1 month ago:
The money is going to salaries, so it’s basically just extended development. They’re all working and doing something. It’s basically just instead of releasing a game 6 years ago that was barebones and okay they’re making the sequel and won’t release the final game until they’re well done.
I’m confident it will release eventually, maybe another 5-8 years. As long as the devs don’t die of old age.

If you live in the best states you get your ballot automatically mailed to you.

They only use people with the best traction on their skin.

If you live in a rural area they’re better at delivering if it’s real muddy out.
- Comment on Dear Kevin 1 month ago:
The kingdoms have changed several times, they’re basically trying to use a more accurate system based on DNA using genotyping to decide which groups are more closely related and be less reliant on behavior and appearance.
- Comment on Top D&D designers join Critical Role after quitting Wizards of the Coast 1 month ago:
It’s interesting and it seems like a good change for people that have done a lot of d&d but it’s probably not going to be a complete replacement for 5e. It seems good for short campaigns but it only has one book out for now.
- Comment on Some secrets are kept better hidden than others 2 months ago:
Yeah, if it was just decorative with a facade then this is fine.
- Comment on You mean it gets worse? 2 months ago:
You can do it yourself but generally not in a group like that for most people.

The empire?
- Comment on Anon visits a guy's house 2 months ago:
I don’t mind that, because I use a small amount of milk for coffee and even a tiny bit is enough.

Smells more like rotten wet mushrooms
- Comment on You mean it gets worse? 2 months ago:
There are certain unique experiences you don’t get later. There are a few places that have field trips in college, but for most people that is only during regular primary school.
- Comment on Anon takes up microdosing 2 months ago:
Wouldn’t you feel like a fool if’n this guy figured out the secret and was out there taking 50 cal rounds to the face.

I believe the head rush effect is mostly when you first start and after that it diminishes and then you’re just dealing with the withdrawal.
- Comment on WaaaaAAALLLEEEeee 2 months ago:
They don’t need much maintenance and the engine brake evs do to recover the energy removes stress on the regular brakes so the brakes last a lot longer.
- Comment on WaaaaAAALLLEEEeee 2 months ago:
But an electric car is basically just a bigger rc car, it doesn’t need any real maintenance. There’s no fluids.
- Comment on (・∀・) 2 months ago:
Its just like pandas, if you can find a niche where there is a ton of low quality food that nobody else wants but you can gobble it down then you win.
- Comment on Canon requires an account to transfer images from your camera. Forces you to sign up using Chrome. 2 months ago:
Cables are better but they have a minimum time to setup and can be inconvenient if you do it while traveling. If you just need a quick transfer then using an app or wireless transfer is better.

I dont have to take this from some vacuous stuffy nosed malodorous pervert.
- Comment on George R. R. Martin's New Announcement Has Finally Made Me Accept He's Never Finishing The Winds Of Winter 2 months ago:
I think the next book is mostly finished, and will release before he dies if he lasts a while or will be in a state where it can be finished easily by an outside writer. The last book will never be finished so if he has the ending written and some solid notes someone could write it but probably will just be unfinished.
- Comment on I.... what? 2 months ago:
When you can recognize thoughts are fleeting and smart enough to never report them on paper.
- Comment on Even Starfield's community patch modders are growing 'disenchanted' with the sci-fi RPG, as volunteers depart in droves: 'If nobody comes forward, we may have to retire the project' 2 months ago:
I played through the main quest. I didn’t really enjoy any of it.
