I would guess all of these are included in the 4.4 million

Congratulations, you’re an agnostic

They’ll probably cost $3,000 (if not more) but they will sell truckloads of them

So layoffs are bad, but not doing layoffs is bad too?

Yes, and it requires much more than a single nuclear warhead

A single nuclear warhead is not capable of ending life as we know it, where did you read that ?

Using the same argument, 10 is one symbol. It is the "ten" symbol.

I’m just pointing out that it makes no sense to say that this system allows writing any number as one symbol.

6 is 2 symbols though

Some Hamas leader: "We are an Islamic resistance movement" (although there seem to be worse ones around)

Apparently they like islamic dress codes, going so far as to patrolling beaches to enforce them

They don't like music and dance either

Please point to any source (not obviously islamic propaganda) of Hamas not being an islamic organization. I'm not saying it's what makes them the bad guys, just that it's dishonest to say they have "nothing to do with religion"

Hamas [...] has nothing to do with religion

From Wikipedia:

Hamas, an acronym of its official name, Harakat al-Muqawama al-Islamiya (Arabic: حركة المقاومة الإسلامية, romanized: Ḥarakat al-Muqāwamah al-ʾIslāmiyyah, lit. 'Islamic Resistance Movement')

"Energy contained in coal" doesn’t make any sense. Is it "energy we could get from burning coal if it was 100% efficient"? "Energy we could get from coal if we could use it in a nuclear reaction"?

Coal (anything) doesn’t "contain" energy. We can transform some things, and some transformations produce energy in some form or another.

The upper line of this graph should be labeled "total energy liberated by burning coal" and the lower one "useful energy liberated by burning coal".

Love how nobody got the joke

When DST ends you set your clock back 1 hour (or it does it automatically nowadays) in the middle of the night, gaining 1 hour of extra sleep

The joke here is that the guy did the same for Leap Day, setting his clock back 24 hours and gaining 24 hours of sleep, so when his boss called at 2pm he was in the middle of his ~32h night

 

Hello, I would really appreciate being able to disable swipe gestures (for example to upvote/downvote or save). In Apollo iirc there was a settings switch for each swipe gesture, and disabling all of them enabled lateral swipes for navigation, from anywhere on the screen instead of just from the edge. Thanks
