I mean, Ultron surfed the web for five minutes and decided humanity had to go.

I don't expect chefs to know how to repair ovens, though.

That is going to make an awesome album cover when they make it big.

Like many old men, he's forgotten that "15 years ago" wasn't when he was 30, it was when he was still old as heck.

The only problem is you get sovcits going "I don't consent!" and acting like that's a get out of laws free card... Not sure how to deal with that.

Good news! They're discovering new, enormous deposits regularly now. We're not going to be in trouble for a long, long time.

A large part of the reason we're in a shortage is because the U.S. had so much helium sold so cheaply that there was no financial impetus to finding new fields. But once we started looking we found *lot* of it . Now, it was sold because the U.S. decided to sell off the publicly-owned strategic helium reserve to privatize the industry, but... at least we're not out.

Specific diet, yes. Constantly hungry, no. This is the kind of body that takes many thousands of calories to maintain. The issue is actually more how bland a lot of it has to be.

Recall though that part of the argument is that putting high speed rail where there isn't yet *business* case for is nevertheless sometimes desirable. Obviously not without limits, but there's plenty of reason to operate high-speed rail at a loss for non-profit reasons. It's kind of like the USPS - it costs money, but it makes it possible to live in many more regions of the country and grows those regions... which makes USPS efficient after the fact.

You're not paying for him to shake the box, you're paying for him knowing *how* to shake the box.

It was more like volleyball than basketball. The "net" was added later and it was basically just a way to showboat on a vastly inferior opposing team.

It's still also selling more units that the other carmakers combined, even in the middle of its supposed crater.

Watching him run in ski boots always makes me think of how Space Marines would look running.

The only one that seems to be true for me is roundness. All the others are variable.

Hell, Iron-Air batteries are another incredibly cheap option for power grid balancing that's already ready to go.

If he were actually a champion, all that furniture would have just flashed and disappeared, though?

No, those are delays from other airports. She's only talking about the delays her airort is in control of. Shoddy work honestly. Camera man was just being a snide ignorant jackass.

Probably similar thought process to "Nguyen" being "Win".

The "N" in "Ncu-" probably indicates that same close-to-silent start, the "c" is soft, and the "u" is the best letter they had to get you the "shoo".

I've always wondered about conventions like this, like Xi being "Shee" or Qi being "Chee", or Siobhan being "Shivan" but I guess the idea is that transliteration isn't supposed to be phonetic for whatever reason. Wish there were more indication of the source language to help.

Probably not - they likely share a foundation and would be called "link" homes.
