Microwave DEW.

No shit?

Entomologist approved. First ent article on Giz that hasn’t had me cringing.

So. Couple things. Those ice javelins are going to wind up in Cersei’s hands and loaded into that giant crossbow. Gonna happen.

Pretty much. Space is Musk’s #1 fascination. And I believe, like you, that’s his primary motivator.

It’s absolutely a good idea. There is plenty of time from taking off from Mustafar to winding up as old Ben. And Obi-Wan is perhaps the greatest Jedi, Hector to Anakin’s Achilles. I would love some good storytelling about him.

I didn’t realize this had turned into a thing. But I remember reading that and thinking it came off really, really bad. It did sound very threatening, but I could see at the time where they could play it either way - threat or clarification. But off the bat it screamed threat.

Because writing “if you try to fly this you will die” isn’t good copy when you’re trying to sell something :D

Hi, I’m an entomologist! Can you get a macro of the remains? I’d like to know what it is.

I think Marvel knows damn well RDJ is not going to be forever in the picture, and they’re actually using this movie to make Spidey heir apparent. Say Tony Stark gets offed or goes on a dissociative fugue or retires anonymously, and ‘leaves it all to the kid.’ Seems feasible to me.

I enjoyed the movie well enough. Kate McKinnon was awesome. Easy to digest viewing. Shame it won’t get a sequel, the cast pulled it off better than I expected. It doesn’t scream for a sequel, but nonetheless.

Maybe all the uber advanced civilizations move into another dimension/universe where it’s cold enough to suit them. If the multiverse theory is true and they’ve figured out how to travel between them, why the heck not? They might not be beholden to physics as we know it.

Summers off? Lol

For certain! My comments were aimed at this site’s reporting on the subject, not the subject itself :) Although I think a lepidopterist might take umbrage with your comment that not many insect larvae have spiny protuberances! But it is very fascinating, indeed. I wish I had the level of biodiversity to observe that…

Hey, I’m an entomologist. It’s true, this isn’t weird. Ants are in the same order as bees and wasps (and sawflies), Hymenoptera. They’re holometabolous, just like caterpillars/butterflies or maggots/flies. Many, many, many, many, many, many, many (this is under emphasizing it) insects are holometabolous.

I’m not in the market for a tablet I can’t carry around anyway. I have two echoes, a fire TV, and a Google Home, I’m down with the always on voice assistant. But with the Show, the whole idea is so redundant. To wit:

Political eugenics.

EVERY place where Europeans displaced indigenous peoples has an unsettling history with those peoples. The US is one of the top offenders. Also think Australia, India, most of Africa, etc. I’m a white dude of entirely northern European descent, and I think the way white guys rolled (are rolling) over the planet is…

Seems like these highly skilled jobs would require pretty competitive hiring. What are the demographics for computer engineers? At the large University I work at it seems like you would have to go out of your way to not hire minorities.
