both to facilitate flying junctions

this exists and the chump is howard hughes

or we could build like 200 more fission plants and rewild all that ethanol land. not really a compelling point in favor of solar land use this factoid...

ok sure but are humans a full decade of NSF budget better than robots

there is. bioarxiv.

a good mission burrito is like $10 and makes my life better

they're in big concrete containers rated to withstand everything its fine

this... is not very good for an hour? i would expect an undergrad to be able to cook this up in an hour

68 years ago we already had fission plants. the engineering side of energy production has been solved since then, it's all political now

ah yes, direct democracy in california has famously never led to anything bad happening.

farming requires a _lot_ of water.

the movie would be over after 10 minutes if GBI intercepted why would you assume this is an accurate depiction
