As long as the temperature is below 451F/233C, there should be no danger of fire.

Pro Tip: Keep masking tape in the kitchen. If you do something weird like storing a pizza in the oven, put a piece of masking tape over the oven dial as a reminder. Masking tape is good for putting a date on things going into the fridge too.

How are they for coming off ? The various reinforced tires I've tried (randoneur, gator, 25mm) are really hard to put back on. Like you peel the skin off your hands trying. I've notice that most tires, even cheaper ones, don't give you trouble for the first 500 miles. So have gone back to a medium grade tire that doesn't require special tools to replace.

Space Flower Moon Micro Reactor, a conceptual car-sized fusion reactor

Wait, what? I don't think we're anywhere close to build a car-sized fusion reactor. Fission, sure.

You only needed a slim 50% to split? Not like a 2/3rds majority?

Is some of this money going to fund ITER (I assume everyone in the EU has to pay a little) ?

Regardless, I stay away from both irregardless.

The most important message doesn't happen until almost the very end. The thing that no politician wants to face up to:

Niko Paech says that’s an impossible target:

"That’s why it’s important to set our sights on a smaller, no longer growing economy ... post-growth economy. A different lifestyle is part of that. We declutter our lives, free ourselves of ballast that just costs time, money, and resources and takes up space. Beyond that, we’ve got to extend the usable life of the products around us. Whether it’s smart phones or bicycles, fabrics or furniture. We’ve got to double, if not triple its life. And use many things communally.

But it's sunny everywhere in CA. Instead of building expensive, inefficient power lines that will have to cross environmentally sensitive areas, why not build solar roofs over the hundreds of miles of freeway that are already there? This will also provide shade for all those people stuck in traffic -- win/win !

I'm sceptical. That would be an extremely unethical test. And it would only prove that too much of something can kill you. Did you know that people can even die from drinking too much water?

I made my own app, and tracked calories, carbs, fiber, and potassium. I used data from USDA. What I found was that it was almost impossible to get the recommended amount of potassium unless you ate nothing but green leafy vegetables, or massively over-eat.

Studies done on people under 45, almost certainly.

An egg a day instead of a multi-vitamin? And then you get high cholesterol.
