The YouTube Channel Kurzgesagt has proposed a calendar based on the 'Human Era' (HE) instead of before/after christ format.

It's based on the first monument of large-scale human cooperation (building a temple in modern-day turkey) and is quite elegant in my opinion. It 'simply' adds 10.000 years to the calendar we're all already used to. :)

Yea. Turns out the biggest creature you can freeze and thaw again (in strict lab conditions) is a hamster, anything bigger just dies.

I'm curious if this wil have any impact on chocolate slavery

The implication is that they (well.. we) can't do what's necessary in a low-effort scenario I'd say.

Kind of similar to calling someone a mouthbreather

I agree that there should definitely be safety regulations in place for ship recycling, but this guy is building a strawman argument and it really undermines his point in my view.

Is there a lemmy version of r/OrphanCrushingMachine ?

'Just'

I've read Suicide Island a while back until I was up-to-date at the time, that fits the bill. It's by Kouji Mori, who was a close friend of Kentaro Miura and is now involved with the continuation of Berserk as far as I know.

Besides that, I probably don't need to tell you that Vagabond and Vinland Saga are excellent. Lone Wolf and Cub is also really good in my opinion, albeit pretty old by now.

The friend that first recommended 'Project Hail Mary' to me told me to not read ANYTHING about it and just read it.

Best advice for this particular book you could ask for.

There are alternatives like ..not sure what it's called in english. Mastika? Mastiha? It's a tree resin from the mediterranean that's been used for that weird greek rezina wine. It's an acquired taste, but I personally really like it.

Not malitious - this is a case of chaotic good. If it's funny and harms noone, roll with it!
