  • In Japan they have rail lines that seamlessly integrate with the metro system of large cities.

    And even if cars for rural users is necessary, their driving experience will be much smoother if all the other people have good access to transit.

  • If I ride the disney cruise line am I a sailor?

    If we allow space tourists to count as astronauts then it diminishes the actual heroes like Gagarin, Shepard, Tereshkova, Armstrong, or Sally Ride.

    Plus. I really don't want to have to call Branson or Bezos astronauts.

  • Revoking citizenship is a bad president.

    He's actively aiding and abbeding the government of a hostile foreign nation that has vocally demanded we scede our sovereignty and surrender our territory to them.

    He should be charged with treason.

  • Which of these candidates do you think will be more willing to have their minds changed with protests and petitions?

    Nothing is going to be easy or perfect, but we can at least choose the most likely candidate that is slightly more aligned with our desired outcome and then fight for what is needed.

  • He can vote too

  • It's percentage of the entire population, if you organized everyone from lowest to highest IQ, what percentage of the entire population would you need to include for them to be in the top. It's a little clearer when a point of interest is near the top. E.G. "person is in the top 1% of people in terms of wealth."

    A less kind way to say it is '91% of people have a higher IQ than this person'.

  • I imagine if my occupation includes carrying a gun, interacting with citizens, and a historically high rate of extrajudicial deaths amongst people I am supposed to be protecting. A publicly accessible camera would be beneficial to easing the minds of those I interact with and providing evidence for any actual instances where I felt my life was threatened.

  • I imagine that he is equating the spectrum back to the rainbow, where red is the 'top' of the visible arch when a single rainbow is seen from the ground.

    Of course the outer ring from a double rainbow flips the order of the colours, but that's probably being needlessly pedantic.

  • The way it's set up it sure looks like Saskatchewan is still technically collecting the tax and just paying the amount right back from their own budget. And Saskatchewan citizens are still getting the carbon payouts from Ottawa.

    Saskatchewan citizens will still have to pay for Moe's stupidity, but the deficit will be in the Saskatchewan budget, not an individual extra tax bill.

    Mainly means that Moe will just continue to destroy Education and Healthcare, which was his main goal anyway.

  • Linnaean taxonomy classifies apes and monkeys as two closely related groups. This is the classification system most people are taught in grade school.

    Cladistics is a style of classification that seeks to organize species and groups of species from when they branched off of other groups of species. In this style, everything is defined by novel features, but they are still members of the more ancient clade. Birds for instance, would be a novel clade emerging from Dinosaurs, and thus all birds are also dinosaurs, but not all dinosaurs are birds.

    Because there are two groups of monkeys with unique characteristics (new world and old world), and apes have unique adaptations not found in either group, we have no way of cladistically defining a monkey in a way that meaningfully does not also include apes.

    As a side note, this is where the phrase "there is no such thing as a fish" comes from. 'Fish' in the Linnaean sense are a huge and diverse category. Two random members of the fish class would likely be far, far more distantly related than a random mammal and a random reptile.

  • What's really weird is that the sun seems to be setting in the same place that the sun and moon are rising. Clearly their entire room is rotating as they sleep. (Along with their little miniature city skyline on their windowsill.)

    Are some options for people who don't want clothing that is skintight and revealing.

    I've very occasionally seen brands like this at box stores. But the vast majority of time if you want something that isn't skin tight you have to get shorts designed for men and some sort of sports top with a shirt.

    Yes. Baggy clothing isn't optimal for swimming, and trunks will tend to stick awkwardly anyway, but a lot of guys would feel uncomfortable if speedoes were the only option. I know I would.

    It's a double standard plain and simple.
