Plus, admitting that God cannot create light without dark or good without evil means admitting God is not omnipotent.

Me too. I was really wondering what sort of interview this was.

Not, you're thinking of Deadshot. A deadlock is a Scottish body of water that has been polluted to the point that no life exists in the lake.

That's a good point. I'm familiar with the concept, but didn't realize it had been formalized so distinctly, so I suppose you're right.

It's interesting, though, because one would think that's there's always going to be a balancing act between wanting to make your message more well known and wanting to keep it unadulterated.

Knowing those two, they probably love the irony of a corporation paying money to use RTJ's anti-capitalistic, transgressive songs in an ad, let alone a brand like Cadillac.

But hey, it's "ju$t" money

As someone who lives in this same town, black bears are more like overweight raccoons.

Fun fact, our "city hall" is at the tiny community airport, which also had a restaurant with the best chicken wings in town (salt and vinegar wings FTW). The restaurant was still going when this happened in 2019, so my guess is the bear smelled the food and went looking for the kitchen, only to get sidetracked by the city council meeting.

Not OP, but mine was really pretty manageable. 2 days of sitting in an easy chair and icing my balls, 2 days of "walking is fine, but avoid any sudden movements," and a week of "it's a little sore, but it doesn't really hurt." After that, it was about 2-3 weeks where I didn't really notice it unless I moved the wrong way too suddenly (whereupon I'd get a quick twinge, but nothing too bad).

Really a pretty small cost for the benefits. I don't really like painkillers, but I do recommend some THC gummies for the first week and a fresh series to binge

I have tons of playlists and saved music on spotify; how is Tidal at importing data from other services? It's not really a deal breaker, but I'm really picky about my music (so I don't really care about "radio" features or curated playlists), so it'd be a real pain in the ass to start from scratch.

"No Skyrim until you finish your homework and finish your chores" is a fantastic motivator for my 10yo. When I can model that I can't play Rocket League with him until after I finish the dishes, it drives the point home that IRL responsibilities need to come before video games.

Depends. The cheap houses, yeah, there's as fair bit of noise, but you can't hear everything. From downstairs, you can hear when someone walks across the room above you, but not when they're walking in other upstairs rooms. And from rooms on the same level, you can hear if someone is talking loudly in the room next door, but not enough to make out what they're saying unless they're yelling.

Well-built houses or buildings made for occupancy by multiple families usually have better sound insulation between the rooms/floors/units, so it's not always an issue.

Edit: the plus side to that is I know all the noises my house makes at night, so as a light sleeper, I know when something is wrong in the middle of the night, and I only need one decent sound system for the whole house, which is great for listening to records while doing housework.

It's more like a mutual friend. There's a connection to both reactants (aka "binding affinity"), but not as strong as the bond that is formed between the two substrates (if the reaction is forming a covalent bond between the two substrates, anyway)

Edit: I'm actually saving this meme to show my coworkers that teach biochem, because it's a pretty decent analogy. You can even extend it to other reaction classes, like a phosphorylase being like a friend who connects your buddy who is selling a guitar with your other buddy who wants to buy a guitar, or a isomerase being that friend who gives you a make-over so that another friend can set you up on a date.

So, one observer will see those oscillations happen faster than the other?

Not quite. In each observer's frame of reference, time appears to pass the same; it's only when you try to reconcile the between two objects that are not at rest with respect to each other does relativity show up.

Basically, when you bring someone back to Earth, the observers will find that their watches don't match up even though both observers experience time passing the same way as normal (because the oberserver is by definition at rest with respect to their own frame of reference).

TL; DR: Relativity is a pain in the ass and makes no sense in everyday terms.

edit: disclaimer - I am not a physicist and have not taken physics classes in a decade plus, but I do teach science at a college. I'm going mostly on half-remembered lectures and some random one-off discussions I've had with my buddy in the physics department over the past few years.
