If you want to accelerate a person to “fly high into the air” speed over a distance of a see saw’s arc is going to kill the person. There is no sweet spot

They are made of food

Searching “SpaceX starship” on Google just now in Firefox with adblock origin, not logged into Google, on mobile I get:

• Summary of the vehicle from Wikipedia with relevant pictures on the first card
• The SpaceX page for the vehicle on the second card
• Relevant videos on the third card
• SpaceX’s twitter on the fourth card

Doing the same in mobile chrome, logged in, no ad block:

• Adverts for starship toys in the first card
• Relevant news stories in the second card
• Wikipedia summary
• SpaceX’s starship page
• Relevant videos
• SpaceX twitter

So if you’re getting other crap, use ad block. I presume the comic was made while Google was adding LLM results, which they aren’t doing now. I can’t say I noticed the LLM results while they were included.

I always worry that my solar panels will fail, allowing all that sunlight to overflow through to my house!

I think I have only heard the term in:

• The plural of fan: sci fi stories set in the distant future of 1990, also in early internet fandom
• The wetland: stories from the UK, embedded in British place names, having a British parent

I wonder what sort of wetland my local one is, and the nearby swampy grasslands. Both are watered by rain or snowmelt. Both are marked as wetlands on maps

Fen the wetland type or fen the plural of (sci fi/fantasy) fan? Or had you heard of neither?

Paris really is beautiful, I have seen many places as nice in Europe, but Paris stands out

I really don’t mind him making Musk look like an idiot

I’m sure he can be forgiven for not knowing the name of a scientist whose work his employees build upon

The fact that he didn’t believe them when they claimed to be a scientist though

Yep, there are mods for Minecraft that warn you that certain of their functions will trigger anticheat if used on a server (so only use those features only in single player, where your server doesn’t care if you cheat)

With a valve, I guess, to release the pressure gently

Our racism is completely unrelated to our classification. We are racist between homo sapiens and homo sapiens

The arts isn’t about art. Graduates of an arts degree are not generally artists

That doesn’t explain why the middle of the bell curve like him

I suspect if you went through his history he has already told us that solar is useless because of night, and that wind is useless because sometimes it’s still

He may be counting the 1 kW per square metre of sunlight that reaches the ground, not just the fraction we turn to electricity

But they aren’t capturing the carbon. They aren’t storing it. It’s supposed to be the easiest case of CCS and they dump the CO2 in the atmosphere

I strongly suspect that CCS is a lie aimed to make people happier to continue burning fossil fuels

You need “if you play a computer game and find they have technical details of a weapon system incorrect, what action should you take”

Dude, it is ridiculous, unless you live in one of the few countries where the title gets you special treatment. You’re clearly not in such a country as you’re talking about the cost

Architects where I work don’t have degrees, they’re programmers who have shown they understand a significant chunk of our enormous system (government IT)

Analysts are a mixed bag. Some have relevant education, others have relevant experience

Data scientists seem to all be appropriately degreed
