Any body of water, so lakes, swimming pools, the ocean are packed with parasites. Food, a lot of it has parasites in it, we just cook them to death first. Worms in the dirt. My own bed. The list goes on.

Don’t have to be a meat tank when you can just trick the meat tank to die for you.

Grape vapes?

Anon isn’t dumb, just simple. Nuclear energy can be the best solution for certain situations. While renewables are the better choice in every way, they’re effectiveness isn’t equally distributed. There are places where there just isn’t enough available renewable energy sources year round to supply the people living there. When energy storage and transmission methods are also not up to the task, nuclear becomes the best answer. It shouldn’t be the first answer people look to but it is an answer. An expensive answer but sometimes the best one.

Also nuclear waste doesn’t have to be a problem. If anyone was willing to cover the cost of burning it in a breeder reactor for power or burry it forever. It just is because it’s expensive.

Maybe try asking them nicely first, or putting up a sign that doesn’t have a threat in it? Like, I get it, someone slighted you so you got to make them think twice before crossing you again, but going straight to building a trap with razor blades is a bit extreme and will probably land you before a judge.

Even dog shit in a trash can is super polarizing. This was the first comment I saw even mentioning asking the person nicely to stop first. Like maybe put up a sign saying ‘No dog poop please’ before making a threat or a thing meant to bother the dog.

Didn’t you know, criticism of the Israeli government is tantamount to advocating for a genocide of Jewish people. It’s binary, no way anyone can have an opinion that exists between a spectrum of the two. I mean someone criticizing a government and not it’s people is just absurd.

(/S, incase anyone doubts my sarcasm)

I was thinking Sabotage. Turn that scene from Star Trek Beyond into a reality.

That sucks bro. Losing a pet is always painful. I hope you can let another dog into your life someday. I know that it’s hard, I’ve lost many pets, and my puppy hasn’t been a puppy in a very long time. Sounds like you gave your girls the amazing life they deserve.

How difficult asbestos remediation can be depends a lot on the situation. Regardless of the situation people working near or on asbestos require respirators, bunny suits, many vacuums, and more to handle asbestos safely. Not the best conditions to work in but definitely not the worst.

Where the work is being done says a lot about how difficult it’ll be. As an example take a single detached house, asbestos remediation wouldn’t be too difficult. The residents can leave the home so there’s less concern about inadvertently exposing the public. It gets a lot more difficult when the work is being done in say a train terminal for example. The terminal cannot be closed for a month so work must be done alongside the public. Now a whole system needs to be put it place. It becomes a lot easier to just leave the asbestos alone, as long as it’s not turned into a dust it’s not dangerous.

Unfortunately there’s a bit of pressure to osbficate the core idea of a publication in academia. While the ideal academics try to hold themselves to is to freely exchange information, for researchers who are paid to study very neiche topics there’s an insensitive to put some resistance into others entering their field. There is only so much funding and one more team means more competition. So some researchers who find themselves in that position will intentionally complicate their published work as a way to create a disincentive to others from crowding their field. It sucks but the reality is that funding and money come before the faithful pursuit of knowledge.

Also, some people just suck at writing.

Asbestos definitely causes inflammation when tissues are exposed to it, I wouldn’t recommend that anyone lick asbestos. One exposure wouldn’t do much. That said I’m pretty sure the act of picking asbestos up and bringing it to your face and breathing it in would be the most dangerous part of that.

Well that was a wild ride of a comment.

Star Trek Voyager

I don’t know enough to answer that, sorry.

So scientists are not entirely certain about the heat death of the universe. The heat death is the most reasonable prediction given what we know but there could be a force acting across the universe that may very slowly reverse the expansion of the universe that we have yet to discover and cause a big crunch over a ridiculously large amount of time. The fact is predictions that far in the future aren’t really very useful.

Technically 1 out of 1 people who undergo that procedure die, eventually. Same is true for people who elect not to have the procedure done, eventually.
