Why is the air quality so bad now?
It seems that with unusually warm temperature came unusually bad air. Any ideas why?
Happy Easter everyone, btw!
A modern paper
It feels ridiculous to see a 5-page paper with a 150-page appendix. Makes you question what is the paper.
Thanks for the insight!
Yes, just checked)
Why did they replace bash with zsh?
I'd like to see a person who applies for a gun license and needs to show that they are trustworthy and then says "and I am also going to cary a corpse in my car"
In the US it's not only drinking but even carrying an exposed bottle of alcohol. Which is why in some places liquor stores are called package stores (if I recall correctly), because they package the bottle in a brown bag.
What are some of the weird/hilarious/stupid things that are legal in Germany but illegal in other countries (and vice versa)?
My buddy and I were discussing the allowed blood alcohol content for driving (purely hypothetically) and how it varies across countries and then we stumbled upon the question in the title. Would be curious to hear if you guys know any good examples.
The bladder tells the balls that it's time
I mean, it is kind of hard to push the stuff through initially when the thing is hard. But I guess you're right that aiming becomes a bigger issue.
I had the exact same impression. Excellent ideas but need more fleshing out
Certainly makes it hard to pee
And pee yourself
Is it even possible? I mean, your bladder would probably scream so loud that the brain would give up

Spoilers warning
Picked it up from the Goodreads science fiction top list. The description did not make much sense to me but I decided to give it a try based on the popularity.
It was a bit hard for me to get into but after a while the narrative made sense. It felt cosy to imagine all these travelers gather around and tell stories to each other. I liked the variety of styles and themes that each character contributes. But I still felt it was not fully stitched together. Yes, there is this shared universe but the transition from one tale to another still was jarring. And the ending was underwhelming. I was hoping for some closure, and the last tale kind of provided it, but then there was a heap of unanswered questions.
What were your thoughts? If you read the sequels, were they worth it?
How do you trash a Christmas tree?
Is there a special place you are supposed to take it? Or just put it near a dumpster?
I hope they find the second ring on the right and call the whole thing the Big Happy
New guide on Ico dropped on Gamefaqs
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/ps3/632823-ico/faqs/81063
I hope this is relevant for the community. In a bizarre coincidence I finished Ico this week (for the very first time, and... what an experience) and, of course, went to Gamefaqs to see what I missed on the first play through. To my huge surprise, there was a new guide, added just a few days back. The guide is on the language of Yorda, kind of similar to some of the previous work done, but a nice addition nonetheless. Really impressed that people are still writing guides on a 20+ year-old game.

What did you think of Kaiju Preservation Society?
Read it recently, somewhat influenced by a post about John Scalzi on the sub, just wanted to share my thoughts and ask what you guys thought.
Minor spoilers ahead.
My opinion about the book wavered as I read it. It went somewhat like this

How do you deal with water condensation on the windows?
Now that the temperature outside has dropped, the windows start to accumulate water vapor. I am assuming that it might also lead to that black stuff forming. Is there a more efficient way of dealing with the condensate than wiping it dry every day?
Comforting science fiction
Which sci-fi titles (movies, books) do you consider comforting, cozy, something you come back to from time to time? For me, I guess it is The Matrix. Still holds up to this day, gets better with every re-watch, and gives me a sense of peace when I need it.
