Dildos have been around a lot longer than that. https://allthatsinteresting.com/history-of-the-dildo

My understanding is that “hysteria” legitimized the use of the vibrator (not unlike how “weight loss” was used in the 1980s to prescribe fentanyl), but they were around before that, and probably would have found another way of entering the mainstream.

And the answer is"What is the Poisson Distribution" Alex.

There is literally a distribution that describes the occurences of low probability events in large populations. It was developed to study deaths by horse kick in the Prussian army. So confidence intervals never come into it. You’re applying Stats for Communications Majors reasoning to an adult problem.

Are you telling me that 35,000 vehicles is not a sufficient sample size to assess safety? Are you for real?

You can draw conclusions because there’s only 35,000 on the road. That is a terrible rate.

Godfather II. The first is honestly kind of hokey and people are really stupid when they are trying to be clever. GF II has higher levels of tension and the execution of everything is smarter. And Robert DeNiro just slays playing young Marlon Brando.

Nassim Nicholas Taleb talks about this when he explains his own career. He realized the amount of effort he had in him was never going to change, so he wanted a field where earnings weren’t limited by his own effort - the dream of passive income. He became an expert on risk and a well known writer. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nassim_Nicholas_Taleb

Absolutely not. I loathe gestures my touchpad and disable everything I can.

Bonesofthemoon must be up there.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull may meet your needs. If you’re Will ng to flexible in your definitions the the Crane Wife cycle by the Decemberists might also fit .

PRE-Cambrian my dude. The Cambrian explosion of life is associated with conventional body plans.

I drive a 2010 Acura MDX. When I bought it, it was one the largest SUVs in the market. When I bought it people thought it was ridiculous. Jump to today. It’s midsize. I can’t even find it parking lots as it’s dwarfed by every truck and SUV around. Including what used to be economy and entry level vehicles. I have crossbars on it for my kayak to boot.

133 communities and just 45 users. An old alt of mine is among them for a reason I can’t recall. Login trouble or something?

Edited for fat fingers.

Thanks! I assumed it was rhetorical question but this waaaaay outside my area of expertise.

Is decay the only way to get lead? I mean if uranium gets synthesized can’t lead get made as well?

Pick lots of ballise fruit in White Orchard. It is tougher to find later on.

The Kingdom of Loathing guys (Jick and Mr Skullhead) had a development approach to keep their game system balanced. They felt that players had different primary motivations/enjoyment in the game and they wanted to make sure there was something for everyone. They divided players into four groups: Hearts, Clubs, Spades, and Diamonds.

Hearts enjoyed the social aspects of the game and would use the chat system and clans extensively.

Clubs were the PvP crowd and weren’t happy unless there were meaningful opportunities to battle other players.

Spades are explorers and look to every nook and cranny of the environment, and are interested in underlying game mechanics (this is me).

Diamonds are collectors and completists. They will scour environments to ensure they got everything and do all the sides because they want all the stuff.

He was years ahead of the field in molecular biology but was parking cars when his work won a Nobel Prize…for other people.
