Nyxicas, 6 miesięcy temu do games w ‘We are not a retro company’: Sega prepares to go back to the future

Right, Sega. You say as you cannot stop for the life of you, remind everyone about the Sega Genesis and Sonic.

“Sega started as a rock’n’roll breath of fresh air in a Nintendo-dominated world…”

Um… no.

They’re not a retro company. They’re just stuck in the past, and unable to head into the future. The consistency and the quality of their products say everything anyone needs to know

Agent641, 6 miesięcy temu do astronomy w Atmospheric analysis shows Venus never had Earth-like life, scientists say

Well no. By definition it had Venus-like life.

qyron, 6 miesięcy temu do astronomy w Atmospheric analysis shows Venus never had Earth-like life, scientists say

Earth-like would be, by definition, impossible. Venus-like, that, would be something.

remotelove, 6 miesięcy temu

Earth-like is a very broad term. If an organism has something similar to DNA or shared any kind of chemical processes it could be “earth-like”.

As an odd hypothetical example, there is a theory that fungi could potentially spread from planet to planet. Even with a billion or so years of independent evolution, fungi on Venus and fungi on Earth could still share some of the same traits.

Nobody caught the dad joke vibe, I see.

It was overshadowed by the first bit where you said “by definition, impossible”. It kinda boned the delivery, TBH.

Not ruling out some stange bacterial life that’s generating phosphene however. Come on space agencies, Venus atmosphere sample mission when?

Gradually_Adjusting, 6 miesięcy temu do astronomy w Atmospheric analysis shows Venus never had Earth-like life, scientists say

I can’t say I’m surprised

…But my relief is profound

NuraShiny, 6 miesięcy temu do astronomy w Atmospheric analysis shows Venus never had Earth-like life, scientists say

Well duh. It’s a hell of acid storms and sulfur, how would it have had life?

HubertManne, 6 miesięcy temu

I mean sulfur is an important component of life and extremeophiles can handle many conditions. When I heard things about possible life at venus it was generally the idea of microorganisms floating in the atmosphere.

TheWolfOfSouthEnd, 6 miesięcy temu

I’m not meaning to sound sarcastic or like I’m taking the piss, but how do we know there are no life forms that like acid storms and sulphur?

NuraShiny, 6 miesięcy temu

This headline says earth-like life. I just didn’t repeat the word.

huf, 6 miesięcy temu

there’s a bunch of life around the deep sea volcanoes that lives off sulphur and stuff, so technically it’d still be earth-like life :)

NuraShiny, 6 miesięcy temu

Fair point there!

acockworkorange, 6 miesięcy temu

Even if it doesn’t have now, it’s quite a leap to say it never had.

NuraShiny, 6 miesięcy temu

Is it? Why?

acockworkorange, 6 miesięcy temu (edited 6 miesięcy temu)

Earth was very inhospitable for life for quite some time. In the future, it could become barren again. What’s to say that Venus wasn’t once harboring life? We don’t know anywhere near enough of its geology to even guess that.

Regulate the lines and electrify them!

collapse_already, 9 miesięcy temu do trains w Another American railcar chemical leak: White House urges Ohio residents to heed calls to evacuate

Well, looks like Donald’s deregulation of the railroads is continuing to pay dividends.

fpslem, 9 miesięcy temu

I’ll blame the former guy all day long for his failings, but the Staggers Act deregulated the railroad industry in 1980, and was signed by Jimmy Carter. This mess has been a long time coming.

In 2018, Trump rescinded an Obama era rule that required hazardous waste train cars to have pneumatic brakes intended to prevent derailments.

They should evacuate out of Ohio.

Heckof a job Mayo Pete! Way to reign in those risky rail behaviors and insure public safety. Very presidential.
