The Iranians had to be very sneaky to drop their bomb on the school at the same time the US was bombing the IRGC compound, right next to the school. There was only one set of explosions. Same kind of bomb, too.

It's not wear on the ports that gets me, it is the build up of compacted cat hair and pocket dust inside the port that leads to failing to charge. I then have to get a needle and gouge out the matted clumps before I can charge the phone again.

Distinct possibility the school was targeted by AI (Claude I believe) using 10 year old information that predates the school.

Adam Carolla does not eat stew for more than one hour per day; he spends 15 hours a day not eating stew. He's not a real stew eater.

Just iced coffee? Hot coffee is safe, there is just some lingering question whether chilling coffee makes it unsafe? What sort of voodoo is that about?

I like how Bari gets a pic of Walter Cronkite out to remind everyone he was with CBS back when it was good.

Interstellar travel is impossible and aliens haven't visited Earth, physicists say β€œThere is a silence in the night sky that has bothered me for as long as I can remember. ” Richard Feynman’s reflection lingers because it feels personal.

Another truth most humans are just to dumb to grasp.
