DO NOT GET COBRA! That is NOT the fucking lesson! Look, just use healthcare.gov. it's not perfect, but God damn it will get 90% of people affordable healthcare.

"Previously On" segments do the same thing for me. What's that, you're showing a character who appeared 8 episodes ago and gave an ominous warning? Wonder if THAT will come to fruition this episode?

I think their response is a big part of it. Rather than going "It wasn't our intention to bring race into this" they essentially just went "What's the big deal guuuuuys? It's just jeans! That's all we meant, right? Good jeans? Haha, you guys get it!"

And every dog within a 10 mile radius started howling.

Is this from 7 years ago?

Imagine getting forced to wear a target and then getting shot. Then getting blamed for getting shot because you were wearing a target.

Isn't there just the one movie, which is the series finale? Unless you're talking about one of the holiday specials.

For some, that is the point.

Misleading reports like this hurt far more than they could have possibly helped.

Also this guy: "What the fuck is a river?"

It was 1983, why TF are the pictures in black & white? What's the reason for pretending this was some long ago event when, for many, it's in living memory?

That's because of high infant/childhood mortality rates skewing the average. If you take away anyone who died before age 5, the average age shoots up to like 70+ in most places. Not too different from today.

 

Is it just a matter of not being worth it? I see cooling towers releasing what appears to be a ton of steam, pretty high up. If that steam were captured at the top and allowed to condense, wouldn't that result in a ton of water with a lot of gravitational potential energy? That water could then be released and used to power water turbines. Maybe I'm overestimating the amount of water being released as steam, or underestimating how much is needed to spin a water turbine to get a meaningful result, but it seems like wasted energy to me.

 

I'm aiming to get the 30k steps in a day achievement and was wondering if the app considered a day as in a calendar day, or if it's 30k steps in 24 hours?

30k steps comes out to about 15 miles. If the app goes off 24 hours, I was considering taking a backpacking trip some weekend and hiking half in an afternoon, stopping for the night, and doing the rest in the morning. But if it goes by calendar, I'd have to adjust my plans.

 

I'm moving across the country in a few weeks and am trying to plan my route as I'll be driving a moving van with a car towed behind it. The entire drive will be 16-17 hours.

Google maps seems limited for searching everything I'd want to take into account for the route (pull through gas stations, height requirements, avoiding mountain highways, etc.) and was wondering if anyone knew of a better way to plan out the trip?
