Goldilocks zone is basically just where life can survive.
Even if we stay within the Goldilocks zone doesn’t mean that most of the species alive today won’t go extinct because it fucks up the seasons or the magnetic poles or tilt of the earth, etc.

I think there’s maybe more risk with the solar system being thrown off balance with other gravitational forces pulling things out of orbit. Even if earth just gets pulled away from the sun a little we are screwed. Or even the moon pulled away from earth somewhat.

That’s a real winter where it’s enjoyable
I have lived in areas where it’s -30 to -35 and 12+ inches of snow on the ground from November to may. Personally I did quite like it as well but it’s not to everyone’s taste. The first scenario I described is where I think the most people would enjoy it.

I love winter when it’s a real winter. I think most people who hate winter live in an area where they only get half winters.
When each day is generally -5 to -10 degrees celsius, and you have a constant layer of snow around everywhere for a solid 2-3 months, is when winter is my favourite season of the year
But when you have an average temperature of -1 degrees to 5 degrees, and you get random flurries on snow that melt and freeze constantly, then occasional freezing rain and hail, that’s when winter sucks.
- Comment on arriving 5 days ago:
Autumn is better than spring.
Spring has too much melting snow from winter and hasn’t warmed up enough, so it’s always cold and damp.
In autumn the ground is still bone dry from the what of the summer, so even when it rains it just soaks into the ground and you’re good. Then the heat of the summer is still around as it slowly cools into winter, so you still get warm days and cool nights.

Sure, someone just got shot and the crowd is panicking and trying to escape.
Let’s just stand here in the middle of the exit and fill a video, blocking everyone’s way out! Absolutely brilliant.

God given rights?
Didn’t the British leave Britain for America to get away from the church and give themselves their own rights?
- Comment on Aged like milk 1 week ago:
Americas entire culture around guns needs to change, not just a little bit more training and education.
People who misuse guns don’t respect them or the power they yield. They views them as toys, and more often than not fuck around and find out.
Teaching them how to lock a gun up and telling them it’s important won’t change behaviours until people start to respect guns and fear them. Not casually pose with them for Christmas cards with their grandbaby in the room.

It’s not that you can’t make it through the denizens, making it through the denizens is usually easy. It’s just a waste of time for the most part.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss Runbacks 1 week ago:
I haven’t played silksong, but I’m just going off other games in the past for my experience.
If you make it through the hallway of meaningless denizens that just waste time and get to the boss, then die to the boss… Why waste time going through the meaningless denizens again to challenge the boss?
I can see it on higher difficulties when you need to make sure you get through the meaningless denizens perfectly in order to preserve your health and resources to have a better chance of defeating the boss.
But when you just want to experience the story on lower difficulty why make the denizens less powerful to make the boss easier when you can instead just put the save point in front of the boss in instead of the denizens? You’ve already made it through the denizens, it’s not like you’re skipping content.

Eh, make it optional. On hard difficulty make it a thing, medium difficulty allow it to be skipped.

It’s particularly infuriating when the censor doesn’t even inhibit the ability to read the word. Like, a child can still figure out what that says.

Ugh I love being absolutely loaded up with covers from toes to chin, but yes it can’t be on a hot summer’s day with no AC.
Love me a good cold winter’s night with the windows wide open and the floor fan blasting wind right into my face though.

Yeah I do no think mansplaining is not a thing that happens, it absolutely is and is incredibly annoying and insulting.
I just don’t like how people assume someone is misogynistic and mansplaining because of a single comment on the internet and get all accusatory.
It is more of a thing that you need to witness a person doing multiple times to women in order to definitely make an opinion of that person.
If it were a YouTuber that constantly does it in multiple videos then ya fair, throw that in the comments all you want.
In this case though it’s jumping the gun a little bit.
- Comment on 2hot2handle 3 weeks ago:
The thing I don’t like about the mansplaining accusation is it makes lots of men out to be sexist/misogynistic when they are really just pedantic twits that very well could have commented the same stupid thing to a man. But because it was to a woman someone has to accuse them of being sexist too.
Don’t get me wrong there are a lot of sexist assholes, but just assuming it to be the case off a single comment irks me.

As much as I agree filming without permission isn’t a great move, there is no way to tell if they didn’t ask to post it afterwards with their permission and being perfectly fine with deleting it if they weren’t okay with it. It’s not like it was a live feed.

Capitalism and the free market is supposed to encourage efficiency and innovation in order to remain competitive in order to keep prices low… Is Sony against capitalism? Is it against the free market? Is in adverse to innovation? C’mon Sony … Stop being lazy.

I’m moving to a place with well water, how difficult was it to install reverse osmosis and hook it up to the fridge? Does yours just provide for the fridge or the whole house?

Similar to how humans and apes have a common ancestor, the horseshoe crabs would have an ancestor which looked very similar to today’s version, although slightly different, and some of them would have evolved into other things while some remained relatively unchanged.

I wonder what would happen if we transplanted some penguins from Antarctica to the arctic. Would they survive?
Maybe some of the more endangered ones could live and thrive up there, and then become a second food source for the polar bears so they don’t starve now that there isn’t as much ice to hunt seals on.
It’s not like there much of an ecosystem up there that an invasive species can fuck up like the toads down in Australia.

A better device would simply be a switch on the wall to press an emergency button. Very little technology required or security patching.

Devil’s advocate, is she trying to say compared to those unvaccinated but still exposed to/have had the virus? Or people who were never exposed? Because that could maybe change the context. You would think antibodies from a vaccine would stay around the same length of time as those exposed to the live virus directly.
If she is talking about people never exposed than I have no idea what she is talking about.

Why is 15% considered cheap when 15 years ago it was perfectly acceptable? A percentage is a percentage. Yes, cost of living has gone up but that includes food prices which means tips go up as a result automatically, hence the example I provided.
- Comment on Have you encountered this? 1 month ago:
I don’t care what people think, I’m still doing 10% for okay, 15% for good, and 20% for great.
It’s not my job to give servers a raise. The food prices have already exploded, they are already getting more in tips just because the base cost went up
My $10 meal and 15% tip ($1.50) is now a $15 meal with a 15% tip ($2.25) which would have been a 22.5% at previous prices. They already come out ahead in that scenario without tip percentages increasing.
