How about a reboot where Mulder gradually loses his grip on reality and slides deeper into paranoia, hallucinations, and delusions. A tragic story where Scully is forced to helplessly watch as her partner fades away.

So, essentially they’ve been relying on rain water since day one.

It’s because I’m always wrong. Just don’t think about the implications of this conversation.

If you look at the top 10 cities, all of them have a river, except Mexico City. That’s the real outlier. Large cities require lots of water, and that city is a really weird exception.

Have you considered the possibility that nobody agrees with you because you’re always right and everyone else is always wrong.

And shoes. Although, wireless technology is getting popular.

Kites have utilized fly by wire technology for centuries already.

Maybe the ghost eventually turns into a faceless violent poltergeist that just wants to injure and murder everyone. Watching 200 years of history wreck your dreams can be hard to deal with.

Or maybe aliens just don’t care. We may not be that special.

Occasionally you do observe the woodpeckers in your backyard, but ignore the crows in the forest. Maybe there’s an ornithologist who cares about those crows, but most of us just can’t be bothered.

Who needs evidence, when you can just skip the whole justice system and jump straight to sending people to the torture camps.

Many years ago, I used to have huge phablet that I could only carry in the largest pockets of my jacket. It was also ridiculously thin, and made of glass, which made it very fragile. As a result, I was so worried about bending it or breaking it, that those ideas started to sneak into my dreams! Getting rid of it was a relief.

E=mc^2 should cover it, proper physicists can give you a better answer. Either way, it’s a big boom. Wolfram says, it’s about 90 PJ, which is firmly in the nuclear weapons territory.

If you press the universal terminal button, type in the command for spawning a black hole, set the mass to 1 kg, you get something very spicy. It’s so small, that it evaporates pretty much instantly, which means that all of that energy gets released as hawking radiation and the end result resembles an explosion.

Web 2.0 was such a nice idea on paper.

Most people aren’t into thread necromancy. New post and comments get more replies than the old ones. They aren’t completely forgotten, but the difference in attention is massive.

Back in the day, when forums were still a thing, I dumped a bunch of binary into my signature and waited for someone to figure out what it says. Eventually, someone did go through the trouble of converting it to hex, ASCII, HTML, ROT13, BASE64 or whatever random conversions I had access to at the time. Anyway, one day I got a message about it, and I was so delighted.

The amazing thing is, there are so many ways the metals could have ended up in the coins. For example, iron is pretty simple, you just heat up the rocks and molten iron begins to leak out. Aluminium is really weird, because finding it in a metallic form is very rare. However, there are aluminium containing minerals pretty much everywhere. Turns out, you can dissolve those rocks with some chemicals, and separate the aluminium from all the other junk with electricity.

You’re developing romantic attraction. It’s different from sexual attraction, but usually people think of them as one and the same.
