Then presumably because it’s a tasty treat and if you’re gonna die from poison, you might as well have a nice glass of milk before you go.

I’ve only found them in farmers markets in the Midwest. They are DELICIOUS! The article is right, they taste kind like a combination of mango and banana. They have some large seeds you have to eat around, and the skin isn’t super tasty, but the inside is great!
Pro-tip, the ones that look old and brown are the ones that are ripe and ready to eat, the ones that look yellow-green need another day or two to fully ripen.
Time LINE. You’re talking about going so far back that humanity wouldn’t exist. And if you go that far back and try to jumpstart evolution to have humans exist sooner; disregarding how that completely ignores how evolution works, any society that would arise would be indecipherable compared to our own. The resulting “humans” could be hairless and have purple skin. Think of the hot-dog fingers timeline from 'Everything, Everywhere, All At Once" except the world they live in wouldn’t look anything close to ours. They would instead communicate entirely by slapping and live in long tunnels made of beeswax or some shit like that. There are too many branching paths and variables to get anything even close to recognizable.
For the purposes of the main question OP asked, it’s pointless to go back that far. We’re no longer talking about “how might modern society be different if we had made different choices, and what choices have we made that turned out to be good?” but instead saying “what if humanity never evolved and something else did instead?”
A better example, let’s look at the Grand Canyon. Carved by the Colorado River over millions of years. But let’s say you went back far enough to deviate the river’s path so that it never ran through modern day Arizona. At that point, it’s pointless to ask how the Grand Canyon might look different because there wouldn’t BE a Grand Canyon!
Too big. An alteration of the timeline where that’s not the case would basically be one that didn’t involve humanity at all. Not sure you fully understood the question, it’s not asking what’s great about living in this point in time, but rather, of the different paths humanity could have taken, what makes this one good.
Where are you from? I’ve lived all over the US. Texas, East Coast, Northwest, Midwest and in both small towns and big cities. I’ve never encountered a situation where treating a malfunctioning street light as a 4 way stop isn’t just the default reaction of drivers. It’s extremely common sense.
It’s not about winning the fight, it’s about ensuring they are never considered a viable target again.
So glad I got a 12900k. Apparently they beefed up the reliability of the 12th Gen since it was the first gen with the new framework, but crapped out on the subsequent gens. Looking like it’s going to be the best CPU for quite some time.
I thought Signal was the big one?
I mean, it was a pretty well targeted attack.
The Martian and Project Hail Mary are some of the best sci-fi-of-tomorrow books I have ever read. Maybe not a single day, but neither are overly long.
Unit 731 was garbage science. About the only thing worthwhile that came from that was learning how better to treat hypothermia. Most of their experiments boiled down to “If we do terrible things to people, how much will they suffer?” with the answer being “A lot.”
It doesn’t take live experiments to learn things like surgery without anesthesia is less effective, or that not treating people infected with horrible diseases causes them to die in agony.
Eugenics. Not the racist BS that was done in the past, but really pushing the limit to see if we can breed super humans. Genetic editing to make humans immune to cancer or disease. Increased lifespan. Resistance to radiation. Smarter. Stronger. Better.
Arguably, this kind of thing is actually somewhat of a necessity if we ever want to explore the stars. We are far too fragile in our current bodies to survive the difficulties and vastness of space.
Pocket Bard is great for setting adaptive music in D&D sessions. Pick a setting (town, cave, woods, dungeon, etc.), choose the activity the party is doing (exploration or battle), choose an intensity. The music will automatically adapt and fluidly change to match the situation.
In war, civilians lose.
I’m saying using the browser that aims to put privacy first is better than Firefox, yes. I don’t really care about the past personal beliefs of the staff because that doesn’t actually make any difference on the product itself, it’s just virtue signaling. I’ll keep using Brave which values my privacy, you can keep using whatever the hell other browser you want that doesn’t. Simple as that.
I am more and more satisfied with my decision to use Brave years ago despite all the haters.
Now who’s creating fictional scenarios? How convenient that it’s ok to do when it supports your argument.
Misread the image
I mean… I kind of get it. The personal item happened to be a fucking gun. One with moving parts that will fire bullets if the wrong part moves. Your phone will not fire bullets. Seems kind of prudent to stop the machine with spinning magnets and wildly fluctuating magnetic fields from operating near a rifle that may cause it to fire.
I guaran-fucking-tee you that if they hadn’t shut it off, and the machine caused the firing pin to trip resulting in a bullet being fired and hitting someone, people would be saying “what stupid cops let the gun just sit there when they could have hit the emergency stop switch!”
However, the main issue is the rifle never should have fucking been there in the first place!
