Evolution finds a way.

But seriously I thought the article implied the oxidation process just made the particle smaller so they’d have more surface area and get consumed quicker. Even if it’s slow, won’t the yeast that have a taste for PET still want to grow on it, like they do with bread.

    It doesn’t get mentioned a lot, but that’s what it took for the French Revolution too. We haven’t even started eating horses yet (though there aren’t even 1% of the number of horses there were in cities back then). Gonna have to be cats and dogs instead.

    Apple sold keyboard extensions and I use them to plug memory sticks into TVs without having to hunt down the socket in the back of the damn tv. But I had one before that that came with a WiFi dongle way back in the day too.

    Technically the Apple ones have a notch to prevent non keyboards from fitting in, but a pair of pliers and a gentle squeeze removes the notch in the female end quite easily.

    I don’t know, but I know another good cross language number joke.

    There are two cats having a race across a pond. An American cat named One Two Three, and a French cat named Un Duex Trois. Which cat one?

    Tap for spoilerOne Two Three cat won, because Un Duex Trois cat sank.
