In the UK there’s a few Porsches (seems to be Caymans and 911s of various types) that are going cheap because they’ve developed a suspicious engine noise, like this one-

We’ll be like the parents of the 80s who needed the kids to program the VCR for them.

The capital cost of adaptation will be huge, though, not least in terms of existing infrastructure that’ll be rendered useless. Built a nice irrigation system for your farm? Would be a pity if the rainfall in the watershed it feeds from moved somewhere else. Then there’s sea level rise, which will take a massive dump…

Spreading the population out more evenly is unlikely, I think, as most migration is to urban centres. Most population centres incorporate or are built around accessible water and most of the places where water is accessible have already been settled.

Pity I don’t live in London, I could’ve stood across the street waving semaphore flags at the embassy.

I can remember the epiphany I had at the age of 5, or something like that, that the Fire Brigade were not responsible for starting fires, as the name seemed to suggest.

At least the reentry area encompasses China so they can potentially get hit by their own crap.

Cannons weren’t bolted down until breech loading became common, they were fixed to trolleys that were rolled back into the ship so they could be reloaded via the muzzle. The only thing really holding them in place was ropes tying them to the hull so they didn’t launch backwards into the gun crew at the opposite side…

IMHO having a small proportion of groups as male or female only isn’t a problem as long as they’re not excluding the other gender from facilities or services. Like if there was a male-only sports club that hoarded access to all the facilities for a sport in one area, that would be bad, but having separate male and…

Trump probably thinks that ‘voluminous’ means ‘loud’.

told to throw open the window and scream.

A South African guy came up with one some years ago-

Is it shaped like a hatchback but with a sedan trunk/saloon boot? If so, is that as annoying as it sounds to me?

It’s been on the national news in the UK for the last couple of days. He was legally* married but hadn’t done the church ceremony so they managed to complete that in hospital a few hours before he died.
