This would be more like un-stained glass than stained glass.

Hawaii has wild cattle that you can hunt. Not native, but still quite wild, and very dangerous.

More like those Ancestral Archers down in Siofra. They're hitting me with railguns travelling at Mach 12 from halfway across the map.

Cost of running the Olympics in c/[email protected]

I think blue and red are supposed to be "Profit" and "Loss", not revenues and costs, since I'm pretty sure all Olympics have both revenues and costs. Also, the Y-axis is already labeled deficit and surplus, so why not just use those instead of conflicting, misleading terms?

TIL that in the work, An Instinct for Dragons, an anthropologist argues that the universality of dragons across human societies is due to evolutionary reasons, with common primate predators being merg in c/[email protected]

I still have deep-seated, instinctual nightmares of the merg.

There's a great RealLifeLore video that covers this. I think this is it, but I'm not sure.

Long story short (and oversimplified), there are too many geographic and strategic reasons why the countries in question don't want to relinquish that territory.

Six years ago I tossed Warframe 10 bucks before I stopped playing to thank them for 500 amazing free hours, but that's literally the only time I've ever made any sort of freemium purchase.

in your opinion which cartoon series timed their cinema movie debut perfectly? in c/[email protected]

[–] hakase 10 points 6 months ago

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The movie debuted at the height of turtlemania in 1990 and became the highest grossing independent film ever at the time. It's also a genuinely good movie.

A Driverless Car in China Hit a Pedestrian. Social Media Users Are Siding With the Car in c/[email protected]

The issue is not the overall track record on safety but how AV accidents almost always involve doing something incredibly stupid that any competent, healthy person would not.

As long as the overall number of injuries/deaths is lower for autonomous vehicles (and as you've acknowledged, that does seem to be what the data shows), I don't care how "stupid" autonomous vehicles' accidents are. Not to mention that their safety records will only improve as they get more time on the roads.
