Yeah, you are right.

I think it’s the Ge’ez script used in Ethiopian.

Ever wanted to pick your nose while meditating?

The French did try out decimal time, but it never took.

If they are that old.

There comes an issue when a private citizen seeks to use the engines of state to punish those whose speech offends them.

It’s one thing to withdraw society and business from someone who offends you, quite another to demand that the state crush them for you. Of course, most states will do that to a greater or lesser degree. No state extends an absolute freedom of speech.

I stand corrected.

I suspect they will graciously provide the necessities in return for your labour and any remaining rights you have.

Take a look at how company stores and scrip worked. As the song goes: Saint Peter don’t you call me 'cause I can’t go/Sold my soul to the company store.

I really don’t know how this still surprises anyone.

“Hydrogen powered” generally means burning hydrogen in oxygen to make water: 2(HH) + OO -> 2(HHO). To run a car on water as you say is a lot like trying to make a fire out of ash, rather than wood. You can’t burn the ash because it has already been burned.

We don’t, fundamentally. All we can do is construct models and see if they match our observations. How do we know the world exists beyond our sensation of it? That could be an illusion too.

The base assumption that we work on is that the universe is the same here as it is there. Same rules, same interactions. We work out what we should be able to see and then go looking for it, so far that has worked.

As an example, we can look at some hydrogen in a lab and see what kinds of light it absorbs, we can then look at the sun and see if it is absorbing the same light, we can then look at another star and see that it two is absorbing the same light. So we can be confident that the hydrogen in our lab is like the hydrogen in the sun, and that the distant star is made of the same stuff as our sun. We can do wlthis with each element. We can look at the motion of planets around the sun, and we can look at the motion of stars around the center of the galaxy and see that they follow the same patterns.

It’s like trying to work out what is going on in the next room by listening, you can get a good idea, but it could be an empty room with a radio.

So, no change then?

sapience equivelent of a chinese room

A p-zombie I think.

So it looks like it’s already been formatted to allow you to just get the whole thing in one go (the megamanga). It would be just a case of making sure everything is saved in some meaningful order. Are the alternate universe things ever more than one link deep or are they more of a bonus panel?

It’s a bit left-field for this community but you might actually get some reasonable milage out of contacting the artist and asking for their help in archiving it. This isn’t corporate art-product as far as I can tell so something might be arranged that is more efficient than just sending a scraper out to lift it.

Nicotine (the main active ingredient in tobacco) is a mild stimulant. It can help people relax or focus better. You can also get a bit of a headshot if you smoke intensely

There are also cultural benefits. Hanging out informally with others, especially at work can be useful. A 10 min informal tea break every now and again would be better but that’s the world we have got in many workplaces.

In such a way that they understand what you are talking about like I would? Might not be possible.

Look up Mary’s Room for some more thinking into this subject.

Nah, worst is palindrome interpolated ymdyydmy

This has been disproved. We live on a globe in an experimental non-magical universe kept at a university run by wizards who live on a disc held up by four elephants on the book of the Great Atuin.

Pumpkins probably make more sense if grown in the three sisters style.

Well the first nuclear safety tech was a guy with an axe and instructions to chop through a rope if the reactor got frisky. So I suppose there is previous.
