Pretty sure all of the food they ate had hormones in it... Hell, the fruit you (presumably... hopefully?) eat is exuding hormones while you’re eating it!

The lower life expectancy thing is a myth. The numbers are skewed by the huge number of babies who died young and the number of people eaten by dinosaurs. Exclude

It’s the hierarchy of needs! Which basically says once your basic needs like food, shelter, etc are covered, you start looking for other things to worry about. I think people that are following fad diets have pretty much met 99.99% of their other needs.

The German word for farmer is Bauer. Just saying.

This entire scandal? is 100% lack of effort at the Communication, Architecture, and Engineering Levels. Why there is not some kind of firewall between the cloud and “critical” vehicle systems is beyond me... The solution is really quiet simple: If you decouple the cloud from the rest of vehicle network - you can treat

Sure, mine has two doors that can’t be opened from the inside due to the handles snapping off and I’m holding up the driver’s window with paper stuffed between the window and the door frame since the lift mechanism broke, but at least I’m not getting hacked!

Noble savage? Keep looking.

Meanwhile, 89 people in America were killed in car accidents today. And 89 more are going to be killed tomorrow. Again, on Tuesday, another 89 will die. No headline, no report on the evening news...

The problem lies with past science fiction shows. There really wasn’t a stand-out example to compare Game of Thrones to, because it was almost unique when it premiered. Likewise Lord of the Rings. If you hop over to science-fiction, there are usually three big shadows looming over any new science-fiction series - Star

Complete nonsense, Firefly isn’t some pulpy 1930’s short out of Astounding magazine. I mean just look at the dialogue.

Being a “glass half full” sorta guy, I’m still plenty impressed by what the Shuttle DID do.

Of much smaller scope, but still really good, I’d recommend some of the great old short stories Asimov wrote about space travel, particularly living and working within the solar system.

The Martian Way and Marooned off Vesta are two in particular that always stuck with me. They really bring home the living on the edge

That’s something that Kim Stanley Robinson explored in 2312 as well. The idea that human beings are adapted to an Earth environment where we’re constantly bombarded with stimuli, bacteria, fungi, parasites, radiation from the Sun, and so forth - to the point where living in a sterile environment (like a space habitat)
