I know pretty much zero russian, but I choose to read that the first bit of bold text there reads "Bacon".

...so, it checks out as a suicide manual. Death by bacon is pretty slow, though.

The annoying part is that there is no well-known notation for showing percentage points, so people use % for both percentages and percentage points.

Oh come on that's just nonsense. Let's stick to real science here please.

All you need to do is make sure that the area has been sweeped by chronotron particles filtered through a multiphasic tachyon diffractor.

Holy shit. I just realised that the reason they're building the ELT is so they can mount it on a missile and shoot down an F-35 at some point.

Look at all the stuff in your house. That's not minimalist at all! You need to throw it all away, and instead buy iMinimalTable, for only $499.

Then buy iMinimalTable 2 next year.

Hate to be a spoilsport, but that specific article does seem to be available from Nature without a paywall: https://www.nature.com/articles/356739a0.pdf

Still funny/sad, though.

Sometimes I look at the wide open sky and think "What if gravity suddenly reverses and I fall up into the sky and then space? That would be really dangerous."
