When can we non-meteorologists living in hurricane-prone regions expect to see IKE numbers included in storm forecasts? How widely used is this measurement? It sounds like an idea that should have been put to use already. And thanks for posting this article.

I hiked two mountains (less than 2000m tall, but still we started at sea level) and did 5 days and 75 miles across New Zealand in those flip flops. I think you underestimate my ability to make bad decisions about my feet. When it got too muddy I just carried them in my backpack and went barefoot. I guess I didn’t

Locked on? probably not. At that distance, getting locked on by aegis might result in broken electronics and funny looking kids

GREETINGS COMRADE

Hhaha my company is currently building an ecommerce platform and looked at Paypal to see if it will fit our needs. One week later, my developer messages me and was like “I can’t use this crap, it’s ancient”. Switched to Stripe. Beautifully designed. Clean. Clear. Stay the fuck away from Paypal everyone.

Working at godaddy, one comes across the old PayPal dilemma daily. You get these noobs calling in with some rando business idea and they want to use the cheapest $1/month personal site builder and somehow link paypal payment gateways to the whole thing - instead of the alternative, paying for the actual ‘storefront’

At well over 10,000ft the whole town of Leadville laughs at your high California pass. Of course there’s dozens of 11,000+ South American cities that laugh at that.

Fainting makes a lot more sense than farting....which is what I first read the sentence as. It does make me want a small bottle of the stuff slightly less though. I’m not sure what I would do with a chemical that induces farting, vomiting, and panic....but I’m sure I’d find something.

As someone who well remembers the days before plastic water bottles, I agree that this is a “manufactured need”. We also didn’t seem to need to drink water as frequently then. We’d find a water fountain at school or the mall, or wait till we got home. This bullshit of drinking a liter of water a day or staying

Taking water from a different region and shipping to another is why this has become a problem. We need people to move to where there is water.

Raven from Snow Crash. He’s got a nuke in his sidecar, triggered by an EKG band he wears at all times. If he dies it detonates.

I present the most deadly living weapon....

Raina becoming someone who can see the future, but can’t tell anyone about it?

No River Song? The result of an incredibly (and probably unnecessary) scheme to create an assassin who will kill the Doctor.

SCIENCE BIATCH

Yes, I endorse HULK vs PEER REVIEWERS.

If you own a large wooded property take some cotton balls and soak them in Permethrin and let them dry. Put them in an old paper towel tube and place them around your property. The field mice will take them and use them for bedding and assist in cutting down the tick population.
