It’s not really that weird, root beer used to be made using sassafras bark and yeah that’s toxic in large amounts too.
Also fun fact, you can eat the inner bark of most pine trees, particularly white pines. It doesn’t taste great but it could easily be a source of food in an emergency.
I saw dandelions like that a few times before. I never knew what it was called or what caused it. I think I only ever saw it 3 times.
That would raise the sea level almost as fast, and probably more than if the polar ice caps just melted on their own. Also didn’t it come from a comet? Last I checked comet ice isn’t the cleanest ice, it’s full of fun stuff like ammonia, cyanide, and formaldehyde.
Yeah before people in America made a big stink about it and said it’lll turn you crazy or into a mexican, or whatever racist unscientific garbage excuse they made to start a moral panic to make it illegal, people smoked or otherwise consumed cannabis. It was just normal. The same way people consume drugs like coffee today, yes coffee is a drug.
Or it’s likely a mini-Neptune type planet with more atmosphere than ground and therefore likely won’t have complex life at all. Or complex life able to try and do that.
You would need to get into orbit first to start the process of making it. It could make it easier to get into orbit once you have it but it doesn’t eliminate the burden of needing to get into orbit at least once before it’s set up. Likely more than once since failed attempts will require you to start over.
This is the most important part, especially when teaching math to children. The practical aspects of math (beyond arithmetic counting with basic addition and subtraction) are not going to be fully realized until one is an adult, so they aren’t going to be a motivator for learning math.
It needs to be fun and engaging for them to want to keep learning and engaging with it.
Honestly I’m not even sure it’s possible at that distance. Planets reflect very little light compared to stars, and that already minuscule amount of light gets scattered across an insanely huge area due to the inverse square law. So that tiny amount of light gets spread over an insanely huge area (light years in size).
I feel like to get a clear picture your telescope would have to be light years across in size to get a clear image with fine details in it. The light is just too spread out to get a clear picture of it with anything you can build at a human scale.
The hard part is that the stars create so much glare and planets are so small and faint that it’s really REALLY hard to zoom in on them. Even with very powerful telescopes. It’s probably straight up impossible actually. Like you can see them and get an idea of what they’re made of (light spectrum analysis) but you’re not going to be able to make out fine details like what the landmasses look like.
Because one of them (Earth) is based on reality, and the other is a poorly done conceptual render because no human actually knows the shape of the landmasses on that planet on account of having never been there.
It doesn’t surprise me that much honestly, even on Lemmy there are a lot of right-wing people.

31·3 months agoYeah you definitely aren’t supposed to eat it on its own. You can but it’s not good when you do. Has to be paired with other things to make it taste good.
It’s an industrial district, I don’t think they offer housing there. And if they do it’s only for those who work there.

9·3 months agoHot take: These guys never bothered me. I know some people are strongly bothered and annoyed by Boxelder bugs but they don’t annoy me.
Crazy that they boast about having an overactive amygdala but deny it when people say they are acting crazy and paranoid.
Also, side note: conflation of liberal and leftist as if they’re the same is kind of a pet peeve of mine. They are very much not the same thing. Those who know know.
Looks more like Sushi
To be fair it’s a chicken which is 12 meters tall, if you’ve ever seen chickens killing and eating bugs it seems cute but if they were that big they would not be cute at all, it would be terrifying. Little birds are only cute and unintimidating because they’re small.


And even when computers started to come around, data entry was still largely female dominated. It wasn’t until late ron that it became a male dominated space. Largely due to the takeover of video games, which were in America heavily marketed towards only boys and not often marketed towards girls.
