a situation in which the density of objects in low Earth orbit (LEO) becomes so high due to space pollution that collisions between these objects cascade, exponentially increasing the amount of space debris over time.

Really? Do they consider home appreciation? I’ve been paying a mortgage and while it might be more than rent it all comes back to me when I sell the house. Plus however much the home appreciated.

For example 30 years ago my mom bought a house for $76k. It was recently appraised at $700k while she might have paid more per month than a counterpart who rented I’m pretty sure the difference didn’t add up to $600k over 30 years. So… imma call bullshit on this without ever reading TFA.

Somebody please save me a click? I can’t be aresed to copy paste the url into archive and scan for the punchline.

The recent reassertion of managerial prerogative was only possible in an economic environment where top executives could flex their muscles like a boss."

People of Alberta are going to be surprised when they will hear that they are leaving Canada and are being annexed by United States.

It’s not are you happy, it’s “is this the best you could hope for” On that question a stoic in prison scores higher than a neurotic person in a palace.

The world happiness index doesn’t actually measure happiness as most people would define it.

I wonder if there’s a war prize.

I did not get the relevance of creamy chicken. Apparently it’s what they ate while discussing the problem.

They can also just use math on their connection logs.

dissociative identity disorder

Once called multiple personality disorder.

Indeed.

>Since 1994 D.I.D. has been included in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the most widely used guide on mental-health issues. Before then it was known as multiple personality disorder — a misnomer, because rather than having numerous personalities, people with the disorder have one personality with compartmentalized aspects of themselves, known as self-states, or what some people call parts or alters.
