Mars must have been a very boring place.

You've been around forever. I remember Anonymous Coward from many many years ago. Was always surprised that they let you get that username.

And it is thought that the water on earth did not all come from comets, as there is too much for that to happen. They now think that it came from processes within the earth itself. So the basic ideas are still changing.

I think it is distribution rights, copyright rights. Netflix would have to pay the right entities so you could watch that movie

such as by effectively killing the NBN which would provide a high speed network allowing people to stream TV, movies etc in 4K, thereby rendering Foxtel unneeded.

Not sure why you all are just finding problems with it.

I know you are joking but one interesting point on CO2 removal is that the problem is CO2 in the upper atmosphere which provides a "blanket" over us all. Lowering CO2 in the lower atmosphere will be helpful longterm but will not actually solve the CO2 problem for a long time. Upper atmosphere CO2 stays there for hundreds of years. Which is why we need to working on solutions today.

and for the U.S. it is "I will be with you momentarily" (you can only stay for a second? not longer?)

Love the "Do the needful". My favourite saying for South East Asia is "I will revert to you" (really? you will turn back into me?)

Medicine is cheap. Was there last week. Bought three items for a total of about 3 dollars that would be ten times that in Australia.

Those vegetables are ionions?

Given that Red Dwarves (Dwarfs?) are like large jupiters and jupiter has moons, why would a Red Dwarf not have moon-like objects? Whether we call them planets or moons is just a matter of classification.

Two miles per hour is much slower than i can get my Kerbal space ships. Of course, in that you are flying by the seat of your pants and another space ship is just a few clicks away. Still, it gives you a bit of an appreciation of what they have achieved with Rosetta.

This is all well understood. Decreased sea ice in the arctic and increased sea ice in the Antarctic are both due to warming. Increases in the ice sheet is due to increased humidity due to warming. All of these things are not sustainable in the longterm.
