Water is a heck of a thing, about a foot of it will stop most cosmic rays, and you can drink it as well

Turns out we are made of it, and will need to carry a lot of it with us, even with recycling, so simply placing the water storage between the crew compartments and potential sources of cosmic rays will eliminate this concern

Yippee!

In regards to our adaptations for gravity, we need to confirm that we can tolerate centripetal 'simulation' of gravity for journeys, and .6G Martian gravity

I am pretty sure you will find volunteers for this thing

The simulation of gravity becomes unnecessary when we get ships capable of sustained 1G thrust, and that also drive travel time from/to Mars into weeks, making Mars a two-way destination

I'd like to see them produce Tabernanthalog, a synthetic, non-hallucinogenic analogue of ibogaine developed to treat substance use disorders and mental health conditions. It promotes structural neural plasticity (psychoplastogen) without causing the severe cardiac risks or hallucinogenic effects associated with ibogaine.

It will take forever to get through FDA human trials, but make it part of a plant and it's a "Nutraceutical"

Humor is popular amongst the British and people on the spectrum.

Gemini explains it thusly: While some, often misunderstood, social nuances are stereotypical of British culture, it is not a diagnosis of autism

Comedy on the other hand, much less Farces, just make people with the 'tism nervous

As a child, I had to leave the room whenever I Love Lucy (or follow-ons) came on the TV, which is significant because otherwise I was glued to the thing

You don't understand the math of false results.

The population of people who actually should have a negative result is far larger than the population of people that should have a positive result.

A small percentage of a large population [the actually negative] results in a significant number of false positives, while a small percentage of a small number of people [the actually positive] results in a very small number.

It takes longer on that Apple ][ to multiply two numbers than it does on a calculator.

No one needs to be able to drive 600 miles, stop for 5 minutes, then drive for another 600 miles.

People give up unnecessary capabilities in technology when moving to newer technology all the time.

The driver I described above is a menace on the roads.

If you want to know the trigger-words, just watch fox news.

Alternate Energy is right up there with trans and woke on the "stop thinking rationally and follow the leader!" triggers

We will continue to have a large segment of our population behaving like triggered nut-cases as long as we tolerate these modern peddlers of yellow journalism

Frankly fox news has become successful to the point of soiling the world, and trump is the worst case manifestation of their tactics

For every person like you, there is someone else who claims they need an EV that do 600 miles (or more) on a charge and be ready to do another 600 miles after a 5-minute charge.

You need to have them all wired (not wireless) with backups for power. Criminals use Wifi jammers and also turn off power at the breaker.

As I said, you believe them when they say something that agrees with Faux News.

Those stats come from the police, so, if you don't believe the police, we should let everyone out of prison, right?

Or is it that you only don't believe the police when the information doesn't agree with your ore-conceived notions [actually, notions from Faux News]?

Except for the promises about racist policies.

The Wyden Siren has gone off a couple of times recently. What the FBI and CIA are doing is almost certainly far worse and intrusive than this news.

In the final episode of the first season, Christopher Walken paints over a real Banksy. The producers had got Banksy to create a piece of graffiti, which was destroyed as a minor part of the story line.
