If we can do B, A doesn’t provide many benefits.
A 1km diameter, 30km cylinder would provide enough area to feed ~140k people. 95km^2 of space.
That is assuming no imported food etc, based on 7000m^2 per person which is almost 2 acres each.
140k people is a small city.
Moldering: “to crumble into dust, to rot”
All the definitions of molding I can find, are about shaping something.
Literally nothing.
Give him a high five and tell him to keep doing what he is doing. Since we invent the time machine, I wouldn’t want to fuck that up. Really I wouldn’t even visit.
I would however be expecting a visit from my future self, to get the details on how to solve global warming and a bunch of other issues.
Colour would like a word with you.
Wouldn’t that be mouldering?
Lathes are serious machines. They require serious caution!
At my previous job, there was a very lucky apprentice; he was working on “the small lathe”; the sleeve on his overalls caught on the work piece. His arm was pulled into the machine the overall sleeve tore as it was being pulled in. He got very nasty friction burns all up the under side of his arm; if the sleeve didn’t tear, at minimum he would have lost the arm…the lathe didn’t stop spinning during the event. He panicked (understandably) and didn’t think to hit the e-stop.
Table saws and lathes…don’t fuck around with them. Powerful tools require serious caution; but they are also very useful when used correctly.
You can probably trim that down by one.
But I would also add:
This feeds back into the first point.
Termux + syncthing cli + tasker
But this is not a solution for those that you do family tech support for.
It sucks that Syncthing is discontinuing its android app
It would be up near the top of my list.
Ketamine
I was in hospital and had some significant pain. Opiate based pain relief doesn’t really effect me so they said we will try a ketamine. I said ok, I had never had it before…wow dissociative drugs, are not for me. I told the nurse to stop it and had a small argument about it with her as I felt myself become distant and spacey.
I decided that the pain was better then the loosing my mind feeling, stuck with paracetamol.
Driver: that thing looks pretty fast, you wanna race?
Cyclist: sure, switches bike to max assist
Driver: Toot, toot, toooooot!! (loud roaring of engine)
Later at the pub
Driver: I can’t believe you had me for the first 100m, fuck that thing is fast
Cyclist: I know but the top end isn’t really what I need. Another round?
Driver: Sure one more, then I have to get home.
When I was a teen walking home from a party at around 2am, I saw a car reverse out of a driveway and slam into a car. The dude drive off in a hurry.
Checked on the driver of the second car, he was fine, but the car was messed up.
We called the cops and waited, after an hour, called again only to discover that they “were already at the scene”.
Turns out that the dude had another crash a few hundred metres down the road.
Honestly just eat vegetables and keep your ultraprocessed foods to a minimum.
Milk and eggs are pretty good, as they literally have all that a growing body needs. But since I assume you are not a baby posting on social media (never can tell in this “modern” world) you need more than just milk and eggs.
Eat fermented foods, kimchi, sauerkraut or kombucha etc…great for gut health
I do like some nutritional yeast though. It is really tasty.
The hose can be sneaky though. See, you think you are finished, you relax a bit more drops out… Now you are really done, you wipe the last little bit. Good to go.
But fuck you, no, sometimes there is a bit half way up that didn’t come out, you get to the door and now the last bit let’s go. Now you are uncomfortable and a little embarrassed.
Does it happen every time, no, but it is an ever present option…
That is also how I originally read it.
My initial thoughts were, how this one achieve this crazy expensive feat.
Feeding 100 cats until they are all obese, along with housing and vet bills…
In the wild I’ve seen kiwi, kea, Kākā. I took a trip to mana island in the late 90’s, the kiwi were just wandering around during the day…
I’ve never seen the takahē.
True.
I haven’t looked at one since I was a kid.
I know they do, tallest/fastest/biggest etc… But they are all things that always exist.
E.g. the biggest pizza in the world, well before that there was also a biggest pizza it was just smaller than the current one, and before that etc…
I guess anything with a single record, not just the latest in a long string should count.
I wonder how much is embellishment over the years.
If you sawed off your assistants fingers (hard to do with a hand saw); good chance they would also catch gangrene. Far more likely is that at the first sign of a saw hitting your finger, you move it out of the way.
The third person “died of fright”, could have been heart attack. So definitely plausible.
You could have most people in a relatively small area with the rest for farming.
There would be little need for the equivalent of roads, almost all travel would be walk or bike. The longest distance between two points is less than 34km. If the main settlement is in a ring around the middle of the cylinder, it is less than 17km to any point.
