Well, the UUIDs for almost everything we use are galaxy-scale already. Astronomers just need to up those random letters a bit.

Portuguese: “carangueijo” vs. “sirí”
Apparently, the later are a single family:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portunidae
The first is a very general name. But AFAIK, people eat those:

Did it cut out the European portion of Russia?
- Comment on STOP 2 days ago:
Yeah, I can’t describe that one. But people don’t even eat the same parts of those crabs.
- Comment on STOP 2 days ago:
Says the person that obviously has never eaten fried fish. Or also oysters.
Anyway, I just discovered that English has the same word for the crabs that walk on the ground and the ones that swim around. Those taste completely differently.

Hey, the bananas are all there. You can just look at their natural place.

Just let stupid people kill themselves in peace. The press doesn’t even talk about it anymore… I guess journalists noticed he’s just dying, or he got out of money to buy attention.
Anyway, that’s 7 years, not 5.

I got that impression too, but after some hand-based estimation I think the problem is that the Sun is cropped and that throws our senses off.

What kind of experience are you talking about? Maybe I’m a candidate for having it. I dunno.
- Comment on On Monoculture 3 days ago:
Hum…
Monoculture is either the same crop on a field every time, or the same crop is a very large area. A single crop in a field for one season only is crop rotation, something that is absolutely not monoculture.

Have you read his works? Who the fuck can tell what he actually spoke about or not? Or what’s satirical or serious?
I gave-up on reading him, because I certainly can’t.

They could not have a series of civil wars, though. And the people on that revolt specifically using a more complex system to judge the civilians than “what is your skin color?” would have contributed a lot to help the country improve some decades after the revolt.
Of course, it’s not really something they could just stop and choose to change.

Which way are you asking about?
Anyway, the corruption is always systemic. I’m not sure punctual corruption is even a thing that exists.
- Comment on I've wondered since I was a youngin 5 days ago:
Just to note, but that one didn’t end in a great society.
- Comment on I've wondered since I was a youngin 5 days ago:
Historically, almost all social progress has come from stopping before you kill your oppressor and making him reorganize the system in a way that works better. Just killing the oppressor usually only gives you another one a short while later.
Also historically, a small minority of oppressors ever accepted a truce where they reorganize the system. And killing the ones that didn’t let people run the dice again with a new one.

- Comment on What next, power supply shortages? 1 week ago:
And what you call a society where the people “exploiting workers for their surplus value” don’t own the capital, but just know the person that command the police?
Or are you under the impression that rich executives or investment funds own capital?

Turns out that the part that he didn’t like about “secret cabal of whatever-ethnicity people arranging word events in pedophilic ceremonies” was only the “secret”.
Maybe he wanted in, IDK.

I dunno if it’s some kind of addictive, but AFAIK it universally smells like stinky bugs, just weaker.
- Comment on What next, power supply shortages? 1 week ago:
How is that capitalism when “who you know” is the one most important factor deciding what you can do?

All parrots are great trolls.
All corvids are humorless vengeful beasts.
Both families coexist around Australia. I’m really curious of how they do it. I imagine they have some kind of unstable feud.

Are you afraid your browser will send an email there instead of browsing?
Anyway, I’m firmly on the team that thinks if you are making a site, you should redirect the www into your address. No point in leaving the few users that write it by hand lost. But there isn’t a good reason to put complicate your address with it either.

If you go to the port 443, you are already on the www. There’s no need to say it.
There’s also no need to point to automatic ATM machines either.

Most birds will love that you throw bread at them but can’t actually eat it…
Most humans will be offended that you throw bread at them, but it’s nutritive for them…
If you got the right halves, that’s a solid plan.

There is an egg and a glass of milk there.
You can probably drop all the rest anyway, they are not adding much. Or just keep a few pancakes.
