I mostly agree, but saying nobody ever sculpted in marble is a bit like saying nobody ever painted with oil paint because most of the most well known oil paintings were done according to sketches made with charcoal or pencil.
The finished sculpture is made of marble, and thus it was sculpted in marble. Not at first perhaps, but eventually
Of course there are still sculptors around! Like most art sculptures have gotten more abstract tho. Visit any museum of modern Art and you are sure to find some!
Marble and the like are of course incredibly expensive, and for that reason most people stick to more affordable options like wood or ice. Or do additive sculpting with clay/plaster, welding or something like that. If you really want to work with stone you might want to apprentice with a stonemason.
How did I start? Took a pocketknife in my hand and started whittling. The foundations of working in a subtractive manner are largely independent of material.
Prove it
Honestly, I want to be told, when they don’t find micro plastics somewhere.
I’ll give you the point on Antarctica, but using multiple different projections is somehow even worse imho
Except, that your picture shows the continents in the usual Mercator projection distorted way. This type of projection makes countries nearer to the poles look way larger than they actually are.
I don’t think it’s a direct reaction. I think it’s much more likely that capsaicin induces stress and that messes with the heart.
I don’t think they’ll find any ethics there
A very good analog to all your car infrastructure then.
The last point is always funny to me, because cans are plastic bottles inside of aluminum bottles. There is less plastic at least, I guess.

En, I don’t know. So much innovation has happened because of parent workarounds. Also they can kind of stop big companies just completely copying some innovation and driving the inventor out of businesses It’s pretty apparent in the 3d printing industry. Companies like Prusa, E3d, Ultimaker, MakerBot and Aleph-Objects brought consumer 3d printing from basically a hot glue gun to better than some $100k+ industry machines. All of them used to be completely open sourced. Ok, MakerBot and to some degree Ultimaker just went off the deep end, but Prusa is now also holding back their design files for a while after release, E3d has released their new hotend as basically closed Source. Why? Well they want to avoid going the path of Aleph-Objects who had to sell out to a holding company because Chinese manufacturers copied everything as fast as it could be developed and sold it for a fraction of the price.
I’d love if it didn’t have to be this way, but it kind of does now.
Edit: if near monopolies like intel AMD and Nvidia would have to give up their parents the world would most definitely be a more innovative place :D
You haven’t mentioned public transport yet, so if there is any in your area I would have a look at what it might be able to do for you.
Being better than one of the most destructive industries ever is not a high bar. But the most effective way to harvest lithium remains an open pit mine, which are arguably worse than literally anything else.
This probably has nothing to do with maintenance. The plane was only two months old. Enough for some inspections, but nobody would suspect or look for cracks in the fuselage at that point. So it’s probably a manufacturing issue.
That’s not the point. If you rip a dvd, you babe the movie, but you can’t sell DVDs with the movie, because it is copyrighted. After the “AI” has recreated it, the copyright is gone, so you can sell that version with impunity.
And then they go on to fight the predators to make it safe for the rest
That would be funny, but it’s more likely because they are about to go under if they don’t change something up. Doing one of the most requested this seems like a good start in that direction.
Even relatively small amounts of radiation can be problematic when in prolonged direct skin contact. The worst are the ones, that just have thorium oxide powder sprinkled on them tho. Only slightly radioactive, sure, but when ingested that can quickly cause serious harm!
You could have made this loss, but didn’t. I won’t lie, I am somewhat disappointed.
