It doesn't affect me much, since I have a hard time sleeping past 4AM as it is. Today, suddenly, I can sleep until 5! I still have to wait just as long for the sun to come up, though.

The many comments at reddit. I am no chicken expert.

Hmm. Online converters say it's 6.56 feet, or six and half feet.

The longest year ever, except for 2020, which was at least 580 days long.

Like others, I read the whole thread without understanding most of it. I'm trying to picture how this would be used in a prison with no hard drive and no USB port. No mention of it having bluetooth, but wifi seems like a real security problem anyway. Does it have a CD slot? It would make sense if it were connected to a central hard drive that could be monitored, but without a port it doesn't seem possible. It could be that this computer had more parts before the guy bought it (for $5), but he knows enough to figure that out if that were the case.

I had no idea that there were now products labeled "condensed" that didn't have sugar, but a search showed that there are. I will add a word or two to make that clearer.

I know my explanation was weak because the sources had a lot of geologic jargon.

The phrase "eternal trajectory away from earth" is not quite accurate. Voyager could crash into something eventually, or it could be snagged into the gravitational pull of another system, and become a satellite of an exoplanet. Imagine it being found by a future alien civilization millions of years from now, long after we are gone.

Well, you've sent me down the rabbit hole. The island pictured here is named Kiritimati, but it's pronounced "Christmas." The "ti" in the Gilbertese language is pronounced "s". The English call it Christmas Island, not to be confused with Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean, which is where the famous crab march happens.
The island was first permanently populated as a coconut plantation. The village of Poland was named in honor of one of the plantation managers, who was from Poland. There's a lot more interesting stuff at Wikipedia.

I just put stuff in a large ziplock bag and sit on it as I seal it. Or I used to; I haven't flown since 2010.

I went fishing one morning but after a short time I ran out of worms. Then I saw a cottonmouth with a frog in his mouth. Frogs are good bass bait.
Knowing the snake couldn't bite me with the frog in his mouth I grabbed him right behind the head, took the frog, and put it in my bait bucket.
Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit. So, I grabbed my bottle of Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey in its mouth. His eyes rolled back, he went limp. I released him into the lake without incident and carried on fishing using the frog.
A little later, I felt a nudge on my foot. It was that darned snake, with two more frogs.

That was an adventure! Were you a part of the expedition, or were you just catching a ride?

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is today's poor attempt at translating Australian into American.
