That’s really interesting!
I just discovered a theory about the cause of the ‘late heavy bombardment’, which is thought to have delivered water to earth via comets.

Essentially the gas giants all orbited much closer, but Jupiter and Saturn got into resonance and flung Uranus and Neptune way out (and Saturn too). Uranus and Neptune flew out into the path of a heap of ice, and their gravity pulled the ice into an orbit that collided with the terrestrial planets.

Jupiter does throw its weight around a bit too much.

Do you mean the Trojans? They’re excluded from the mass calculation of ‘clearing the neighbourhood’ because they’re in a resonant orbit - their orbit is a consequence of Jupiter’s mass.

Absolute size isn’t really in the criteria for a planet though. Pluto isn’t a planet because it shares its orbit with lots of other icy bodies in the Kuiper belt.

That’s the perfect amount of parmesan.

What’s great is the kid is correct even with the factorial

Grrr you reminded me that lollipop got rid of the notification ticker.

One of the nicest implementations of notifications and they scrapped it for intrusive heads up.

Back when material design actually felt like ‘material’

Q292640261046a:

Detecting multiple leviathan class lifeforms in the region. Are you certain whatever you’re doing is worth it?

Core rope memory?

Memory density is about 2.5MB per cubic metre, might need to buy a warehouse to store it.

They’re all smaller* than the next northernmost on the chart.

Tokyo is 35 North and new York is 40 North - there’s no European city larger than new York between those latitudes.

Next is new York (40 North) and Moscow (55 North). There’s no European city that is larger than Moscow between those bounds.

But it depends on what you define as the boundary of the settlement for population purposes. You might include Istanbul (41 North) there if you define population differently. This list has Istanbul in front of Moscow population wise.

You could use 0 and 180 degrees longitude

Second the hybrid. I had a nice one - bronze face and the gold hands would move to indicate notification type etc. had some complications for step count etc. It looked great, I reckon it’d be even better with a small eink screen to show who the message was from etc. Kind of like the withings

Galaxy watch 5 pro would be best of the Samsung ones for that - lasts two days and does all the stuff. It’s got nothing on a Garmin for battery life though.

Did it play fine to begin with before you ripped it?

I love the monolithic aesthetic of the Canon AS-100. The dual floppies on the side look awesome.

I think it depends on the game.

Need something fast paced, where the options don’t really matter? Go with just labels and don’t show the script.

Need fast paced but it matters? Go with the other commenter’s game that has a time limit while still showing scripts.

Slow and doesn’t matter? Do what you like, it doesn’t matter.

Slow and matters? Think Fallout: New Vegas - excellent script detail and what you choose makes a big difference

Niche case- I’m a maths teacher and it’s been good for replying to emails from students with problems.
