I have felt vertigo in high places in regular 3D games like Minecraft. I have to sit for VR Ghost Busters

I can’t imagine how immersed I’ll be in more immersive VR

Wombats, koala, kangaroo, and emu eggs are easier to catch/find and were the main meat in places where those are common

I would rather Australian risks than those of bears and big cats

Aussie snakes try to keep away from people, they aren’t aggressive.

Our spiders are so like those elsewhere (compare Redback to black widow)

You’re unlikely to see a kangaroo in water. If you do, keep away from it just like you keep away from wild animals anyway

You’re very unlikely to see one in the wild, they’re nocturnal and their burrow entries are under creek banks

In zoos they live in the nocturnal animal section, probably swimming

The alleged knife would be frozen, not dried. It would be much like the ice he was enclosed in

I love the way they evict themselves

I’d do it differently.

I would fund a massive advertising campaign preaching equality, fairness, and cooperation

I would use the tax system to weaken the cycle of intergenerational wealth (the ultra wealthy spend borrowed money which is settled by their estate on death; I would tax bequests to banks; I would tax inheritances above a pretty high limit.

It would take time. The aim would be to have a much more level wealth distribution

Australia heavily advertised multiculturalism and anti-racism during the '70s and '80s and then stopped. It seemed effective. We had one not very racist generation.

Only if they want to be fucked

It is. The red is above the ducks which is above the fucks

If your password looks like an md5 hash they’ll try to dehash it and if they’re successful they’ll be wrong

*Uses the hash of “password 1” as password

Not even all adults. That diet makes me fart constantly and feel suboptimal.

Every plant is trying to kill you. It doesn’t want to be eaten. It especially doesn’t want you to eat its seeds. We can detoxify most of the ones that people eat, but it costs

Eating the same plants over again can make you sick

You may not be as good at detoxifying those plants as the people who do well eating them

I know I’m a lot healthier with no plants in my diet than I have been with lots of plants

The words you are looking for are that Fahrenheit is more precise. But it’s not as there are an infinity of numbers between any two integers.

My thermometer at work which I use for health and safety stuff reports temperature to two decimal places. Had we wanted more precision we could have gone with twenty decimal places. In too big or too small metric units we use multipliers - metres are too small for long distances so we use kilometres (thousands of metres), metres are too big for construction so we use millimetres (thousandths of metres)

Where Celcius degrees are too big, people (scientists, since whole degrees or a single decimal is enough for everyone else) use milikelvins

We have proteins in our diets that our body could use intact, however our digestion breaks those down and we absorb the amino acids and rebuild the needed proteins.

No protein survives digestion. It’s really quite surprising that some prions do survive and fuck us up

You can keep secrets from the future. Future decryption won’t help government see what you did in the now, the logs don’t store the encrypted payload, only the end points and the user/ip

The high end of 0 to 100 is nice for boiling, when I’m making beer at the boiling stage the number on the scale goes from somewhere below 25 to 100 and so the end point is obvious

We boil water quite a lot, though we often aren’t tracking the temperature

Most of the time the temperature scale that’s best is the one you know. I don’t know of any case where Fahrenheit is objectively best (like Celcius is when water is involved) but I think the best argument for Celcius is it is used in science, so American scientists start a step behind all the others by having to learn a new system. Given neither have any great advantage I reckon it’s worth America changing to make things better for American scientists

Celcius degrees are quite a bit larger than Fahrenheit degrees. 0 to 100C is much larger than 0 to 100F so I don’t get what you mean by Celcius covering about half of Fahrenheit. In any case neither scale runs out of numbers high or low

With the sucking venom out of a bite memes they always warned that you needed good mouth health as the venom getting into your blood through a cut or sore would be dangerous, suggesting that venom could be safely ingested

Our digestive system is pretty good at talking apart proteins

Linux + postfix (SMTP) + dovecot (IMAP and POP3) + SPF + DKIM on the host

Point the MX record for your domain to your IP address

Contact your ISP and ask them to set the PTR record for your IP to your hostname

Mail can be handled by a very low end computer, a raspberry pi can handle email for a small number of users

If you have a specific mail machine you would forward the ports you use to that host on your router.
