In a push to deal with micro plastics, bacteria are developed to be able to break down plastic. Eventually, it gets into the plastic installed for a purpose and starts breaking that down.

Not every sector has.

What is showing itself as a major weakness in retirement saving is that a lot of retirement account managers think that bonds are relatively safe when they really aren't.

The Great Recession went bad because they miscalculated the risk of two unrelated mortgages going bad.

When Covid hit, the increase in interest rates devalued a lot of bonds, something that wasn't seen since the 1980's.

Most of the people here who are confused by your accounts' performance probably have a mix of index funds tied to a basket of stocks.

I like Steve Shives's video on why he thought conservatives like Star Trek.

I would like the song Firebirds by Clutch adapted as a Grind house movie. An alien comes to Earth seeking arms to defend her people and teams up with a guy living out of his car.

What do you mean? It makes sense that we would breed animals that want to be eaten.

Dressing up in costumes. Eating candy. Being spooky in general.

I feel like it is important for Kei to be a piece of shit in the show.

I would like to see Gantz adopted as an American TV series.

I think it would be interesting what it would say about MAGA.

I don't see the application of an O’Neil Cylinder within the Earth and Mars gravity wells given how expensive they would be to build next to better places to grow crops.

If one does get built, I would expect it in orbit around Jupiter or Saturn to support activity there.

If the colonization strategy is the Moon then Mars, I expect humanity would have the technology needed to colonize Mars easily while terraforming occurs.

The problem with an O'Neil Cylinder is bringing up enough processed material to build one.

I'm used to the usual "remember me" text messages, but is there a reason they are trying to include the metro area in the message as well?

 

They are supposed to be grown from spores, so what use are ork nipples?
