Gross. Clean your grill, bro.

I personally use a wooden one.

Don’t forget that the north has sold most of their artillery stock piles off to Russia and sent many of their troops to Ukraine. A huge part of their position was having that massive artillery stockpile aimed at Seoul. They are in a much weaker position, militarily, and much more stable with the building materials, food, and cars they’ve received in return.

The long-term outlook isn’t very good, but for now there is less of a need for military presence and war preparation on the peninsula.

Some places you don’t have to. Here, a stop sign is a yield for bikes, and a red light is a stop sign, legally. It works really well imo.

Yessssssss. Mine has this and it’s amazing.

Cobalt Slinky Is great for my nickel allergy :)

They say “contains less than 0.5%” because that’s the cutoff that makes something legally beer. It more than likely has none, much of the time. That’s just the law (US):

> 0.5% it’s beer and subject to alcohol laws

< 0.5% it’s not beer, technically a soda or something

So they label it as <0.5% simply to show that it’s in the latter category. This creates a lot of confusion for some reason.

Even the grocers (and even manufacturers) get it all messed up. Hell, half the brands don’t have required nutritional info (beer doesn’t need it, soda does) but the real problem is that:

The regulatory agencies are captured and don’t do shit anymore. TECHNICALLY the FDA should be stepping in and making them put full nutritional information on all the brands of NA “beer” and making sure it is labeled and sold like a soda.

But the larger companies that sell it are just misclassifying it and creating problems to be as lazy and risk avoidant as possible.

Another counter example that disproves the misunderstanding is kombucha. Kombucha has naturally occurring alcohol, but it’s not classified as some other category. The legal categories are “Alcoholic beverage” Or “Not alcoholic beverage” and it’s less than 0.5% so it’s “not alcoholic beverage” and therefore is available for anyone to buy and has nutritional information on the container.

Similarly, NA “beer” should have the full nutritional information on the can and be sold to anyone. It just “feels” like it should be different somehow, and no one is updating or enforcing policies. You might notice that none of them actually say, “beer.”

Play tectonics is pretty well studied, plus you got the whole part where the sun becomes a red giant and annihilates the planet. I bet Randall worked it out pretty well.

Back of the envelope it’s about 10^17 seconds, which works out a few billion years. He drew it with some wiggle area, so anywhere from hundreds of millions to several billions which covers the range of plate tectonics and the Earth being consumed by the sun.

So it seems pretty accurate
