Comment Arrokoth is such a neat body. (Score 1) 12

For those who didn't follow it, it's not that it's a contact binary that is so neat in and of itself, it's that when they modeled it, they determined that, the collision that formed it was less than 5 meters per second (less than 11 mph / 18 kph). Like a parking lot fender bender, but with the cars being ~750 billion tonnes.

Comment Re: Put out fires quickly letting fuel build up (Score 4, Insightful) 29

40% of Canada's land area is covered in forests. It is simply impossible to "manage" that much forest, and it's utterly fucking absurd to suggest otherwise. And to try to take climate change out of the equation is just a way of misdirecting away from the actual fucking cause; GHG emissions raising surface temperatures.

When will humans stop buying the most trivially fucking moronic red herrings? What a disreputable idiotic species.

It's almost as if allowing emissions to ramp up with little meaningful effort to control them is having the inevitable consequences predicted decades ago. But let's not deal with that, because it's hard. Instead let's have the President of the United States demand Canada hold back the tides.

It was a nice theory but it didn't pan out.

The design you're talking about is 250 years old. It's antique. Notably, the technology of legal language has come very far since. The constitution leaves many questions unanswered to the extent that today any fucking video game EULA is at least ten times more determinate.

Comment oh my old school troll has mod points again (Score 1, Troll) 209

The child who mods down three of my posts in a row every time they get mod points has them again.

If the people who run this site wanted to reduce mod abuse they could do it any time, but they don't want to.

They only want us arguing about stupid shit that doesn't matter to increase the page count so they can show ads for shitlords to morons who haven't figured out how to block them yet.

Remember when this site had benevolent management? Those were the days.
