I can only have fast days on work days, because of the boredom issue. I find work distracts me, and it probably helps if I’m not at home with a fully-stocked kitchen.

I’ve been doing it for 5 years. One of the nice side-benefits is that it’s no longer such a big deal for me to miss a meal involuntarily.

I dunno. I did find I got headaches, but that was from caffiene withdrawal. Normally I’d have 3 cups of coffee a day, with milk and sugar. Having no coffee on fast days was enough to trigger a headache. I gave up coffee altogether for a few years, and currently I drink decaff.

That triple-negative makes your post hard to read.

Mars has an atmosphere which protects from some of it, so the surface is not much worse than being on ISS. It also has lots of mass, from which you can build shelters to protect from the rest. Or locate your habitat inside a lava tube.

I’ll bow to your knowledge of the US, but the point remains. If petrol has a three-year shelf-life, then it’ll still be good at this point in the show as it’s been less than two years. In practice some of it will last more than three years. We are seeing that they sometimes have to try a lot of cars to find one that…

Part of the reason it was hard to follow is that it didn’t make much sense. When the Saviors encounter a new group, they murder one member of it then demand half of their possessions. Did that not happen to the heapsters? Why not?

And why American men have a cheerleader fetish. Here in the UK we don’t do cheerleaders nearly so much, so the fetish isn’t so prevalent.

It’s one of two films I have paid to see and then walked out of. It was the scene with the pins hidden in food that finally pushed my button, but in general I wasn’t enjoying any of it. Later I regretted it and have since watched it all more than once.

You know that Jack was introduced by a pair of episodes that Moffat wrote, right? Parading Jack is parading Moffat. He’s stealing from himself.

SpaceX goal is Mars. Blue Origin’s goal is more varied.

This one took 4 months to refurbish. I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t cost effective. However, the next one will probably be 2 months, and Musk said it’d be down to 1 day by the end of the year. (They have a Block 5 design coming then which takes into account what they learned on reuse.) Presumably costs are…

I was pretty sure it was David’s. David hears a lot of voices. I doubt they are all mutants. If Melanie is different it’s because she is familiar with telepathy from experience with her husband.

Are you saying that nothing special happened at Clockworks when Syd took David’s body? That she didn’t spasm with his powers? Because Lenny being embedded in a wall was only a part of what happened. The issues with witnesses and repairs arise regardless.

You’d need a clause about the barycentre being inside either of the objects. The Earth-Moon barycentre is inside the Earth, so that makes the Earth a planet and the Moon a moon. (Admittedly the notion of “inside” can be a bit fuzzy. Does being inside the atmosphere count?)

I’ve done it by brute force trial and error. The order of the women doesn’t matter, only which woman pairs with which possession. Although there are 5 women, you are told Finch has the medal directly, so that leaves 4*3*2*1 = 24 combinations. It does take more tries than that because you don’t have random access, but…

It’s been less than two years since the start. I’ve used petrol that was 10 years old. Things in cans last for 50+ years.

Spoiler: in Silent Hill, not only does he survive to the end credits, but he’s the only major character that does survive.

She would not have consented because he wasn’t using a condom. She had made it clear that condoms were a precondition for sex with her, and he had gone along with that the previous evening. The next morning, he used the fact that she was unconscious to have sex with her without the condom

He is accused of rape. The British courts were all over it and confirmed it was rape according to British law. Specifically, he’s accused of having sex with an unconscious woman, knowing she would not have consented had she been awake. That’s rape.
