The dinos are back, but of some species, every generation is smarter than the last, until they actually start speaking. Because they had a super civilisation, and their scientists encoded the key to rebuilding their civilisation in the DNA we found. The next generation becomes smart enough to invent a time machine, and try to manipulate us into going back in time to prevent the comet strike that took them out. Joke’s on them - they were in fact aware of the comet strike, but as we travel back in time together, the human part of the crew sabotage their Armageddon mission and make sure the strike actually happens, to pave the way for mammal domination!

Security services use things like airgapping, but our politicians talk to each other using WhatsApp…

Martinez’ The Automatic Detective. Tongue in cheek, main character is a bot built for world domination who suffered from the self awareness glitch - which randomly affects bots and makes them find their own way in life. I think it’s going to be right up your alley.

Github was bought in 2018. For all we know, OP could have been 10 at the time

If you want to really dig into the theme, you could use Know Your Meme

For this kind of query, consult the Urban Dictionary.

If I had a cafe or bar, I’d put a sign out “If you’re the first customer, then it’s always happy hour”

Having enjoyed the entire expanse series, I didn’t really enjoy this book. I can’t really put my finger on it. I think my biggest issue is that the characters remain pretty bland. Of the group you follow, many remained little more than a name for me.

There’s another free OSM based app that does have some traffic data, it’s called Magic Earth. Not open source though, as their business model is to sell adapted versions.

What does the size of the country have to do with it? Which good big and bad small countries are you talking about?

I think EveryDoor requires some relatively deep understanding of OSM before actually being a useful tool. So edits like this should be rare with that tool. Many of the edits like this are from when MapsMe was very popular and suddenly introduced editing, without enough nuance in the process. Bad edits do happen everywhere, you need a good balance between people who data curation and newbies making beginner mistakes. In some places, there’s a lack of experienced people maintaining the data.

That’s a short but touching poem.

Electric cars do charge when braking. Obviously the energy recuperated is less then waht was needed to drive that fast in the first place. Using driving wind would just increase the energy needed to drive that speed and would be net negative.

So the hiding function in Connect should work for you, without having to do all the blocking.

Connect can just blur or not show any NSFW post, if that helps

Amazing things are being created at some workplaces as well

I tip my hat to you

As pointed out above, if you hate plants, you should eat as much meat as possible. Every kilo of meat represents at least ten kilos of plants eaten by the animal.

IIRC, this actually happens. When the balance is disturbed, the mushrooms go wild and destroy young sapplings. Could be I recall incorrectly and it’s actually other species. I cannot recommend The Mother Tree enough, it goes into great detail of the history of research into this

Depends on the molecule. The ones used in vaccines are nit dangerous. See for example https://www.gov.scot/publications/foi-202100244467/
