Is a chicken egg defined as an egg that will grow into a chicken, or as an egg laid by a chicken?

Maybe if they keep using digital computers. What they need is an analogue system. It's much more efficient for this kind of work.

Me: Just commenting on how much trouble the customers are having, boss. I should probably ask if they want a hint.

Factory farms often employ a process called debeaking to reduce deaths of chickens. You see, when chickens are kept in cramped enough conditions, they start pecking each other to death from the stress. Debeaking prevents stress-motivated murder. The stress is still there, the chickens still hurt so bad they want to kill each other, they just can't because they don't have a beak anymore.

Travel between the east and west of Australia is made difficult by a lifeless expanse called the Nullarbor Plain. In America, long haul travel is supported by the truck stops, which I understand to be huge complexes involving McDonald's and sometimes even entire malls. In Australia, it's a little different. Truckers and travellers are supported by the noble establishments known as chip shops. They sell chips. Sometimes with gravy. And there is always a shaker of chicken salt on a little table next to the door. And if you want some protein in your diet, then you can instead order one of Mrs Mac's Famous Beef Pies. Make sure to get a little squirty pack of tomato sauce. Many people have claimed certain things as universal Australian experiences and been wrong. Chip shops are the UNIVERSAL Australian icon.

There are chip shops on the Nullarbor Plain, but they're not connected to an electrical grid. Which means that until recently, you couldn't drive an electric car from Adelaide to Perth. But you can now. They installed electric car changers. And what powers the chargers? Why, a biodiesel generator that runs on waste oil from the chips.

Everything old is new again.

Why would there be burglars in a post scarcity communist society, genius?

You'd like Doctor Stone.

Senku is an incredibly smart high schooler who wants to be an astronaut like his dad. Instead, every human being on earth is turned to stone in a flash of mysterious green light. Six thousand years later, Senku's body breaks out of the stone. He's all alone in a world with no people, no technology, and no society. Fortunately, Senku has the power of science on his side. He vows to sprint up the technology tree and accomplish in his own lifetime what took humanity 10,000 years the first time around. He still wants to go to space.
