I’m sure it would trickle down at some point, right?

Probably the same as regular toothpaste.

So having the aerodynamics you can literally fly at that speed.

You can at much, much slower speeds. For example this STOL plane only stalls at 32km/h.

Plus get a few billion in charity from the government.

I just don’t get why people choose to be poor. It seems like a difficult way to live. Why don’t these people just get some more money?

There are also a shitload more humans now. Even if number of horses per capita is lower, the fact that there are more people may compensate for that.

That is salmiak flavored licorice, it’s not salmiak. Just like a bag of paprika flavoured crisps says ‘paprika’ on the front, doesn’t mean that paprika is another word for crisps.

The only relation between licorice and salmiak is that it’s used to flavour a specific type of licorice.

It’s also used in fertilizer, as flux for soldering or galvanizing metal, in batteries, and lots of other applications.

You can also buy salmiak powder as a form of candy on it’s own.

No. It is added to certain types of licorice candy to add flavor but salmiak is it’s own thing.

But it tastes nothing like salt and licorice. It tastes like salmiak (a.k.a. ammonium chloride). Who hasn’t had salmiak at least once in their life?

Cats with the unusual coat – known as ‘salmiak cats’ (which translates as ‘salty liquorice’)

A better translation would be ‘ammonium chloride’, because that’s what salmiak is.

No it’s not. DST makes it so summer afternoons and evenings are useless because it’s too hot in the direct sunlight. By the time the sun goes down and you can actually be outside it’s time for bed.

We should move the clock a hour back in summer so we can actually enjoy the summer evenings.

Dark? It doesn’t get dark in summer at the end of the workday, even if you move the clock backwards.

What I do like in summer is being outside, which isn’t possible until after sundown because you’ll burn alive if you do. It doesn’t get comfortable outdoors until after the sun sets which in the middle of summer isn’t until 22:00, thanks to DST.

I’d like to BBQ, eat outdoors, have a few drinks with friends in my garden. All impossible during weekdays because there is not enough time after sunset before I need to go to bed.

Move the clock an hour back in summer instead.

Yep.

You’re welcome.

In the same vein, stop drawing dead butterflies

Another thing that’s crazy about trees is that there is no such thing as a tree, phylogenetically.

As in: there is no branch on the tree of life for trees. There is no first tree from which all trees are descended. There are trees that have a common ancestor that was definitely not a tree, and there are there are plants that are definitely not trees that are descended from trees.

If you look at the tree of life for plants, you see trees evolving into other types of plants and evolving back into trees all over the place.

Taste like crab, talk like people.

Second most abundant doesn’t really convey how much more abundant it is compared to other elements.

About 75% of all the mass in the universe is hydrogen, about 23% is helium, 1% oxygen, and that leaves just 1% for everything else.

Making it yourself is no guarantee it will be safe, unless you know exactly what you’re doing.
