Those loving scooters keep popping around campus. They kind you pay a dollar for on an app. First there was just the one company, then another, and today I saw Lyft branded ones. They're literally piled on the sidewalk. Parasitic

climate pessimism isn't Malthusian. it isn't about overpopulation. it's more along the lines of: the ecological conditions which permit industrial agriculture are going to disappear as the climate changes and the biosphere undergoes mass extinction and then we all starve to death. or die in wars brought about by the whole starving thing.

On first thought the prospect of a brain thing that makes you happy doing your poo poo job sounds great.

Then all the rest of the thoughts slough in and oh gently caress no.

I read a scifi book once where the concept was they would induce autistic obsession in people to turn them into hyper efficient workers who never wanted to quit working at the job they were assigned. I expect there's some startup working on making that happen in reality as we speak.

Use TP moistened from a clean water tap, don't be afraid to use 2-3 squares folded together.

when I was a kid I would do that, got up from the seat because I couldn't reach the sink. a heretofore unknown dangler dropped onto the seat and I sat on it. this greatly complicated my situation.

cursory googling on the topic of these things reveals a denial from the company that their stuff clogs sewers. "it's made of wood pulp, it breaks up in water" they say. I may conduct an experiment and leave one in a bowl of water to see how it goes.

it's kind of gross to think about anything biological in too much detail, like how we're constantly coated in a thin film of oil and your skin feels completely wrong when not, which is why it's so hard to find soap without lotion in it

I mean i'm covered with a hideous carpet of writhing biology, in addition to my own horrible meaty corpus, like everyone. but I been around people who didn't know how to wipe their rear end properly. you'd know it too if you ran into it. it is an instinctual thing. it isn't like regular rear end-end of a garbage truck in summer BO. it doesn't smell like poo poo, it smells like poo poo that you marinated in a witch's brew.

The guillotine cuts because its blade has sufficient mass and velocity. On the moon, the velocity would be much less for the same falling distance, because things fall slower. So for the same cutting power you'd either need a taller guillotine, or a heavier blade, or a combination of the two.

While I'm at it. You'd also need a little extra oomph for cracking through spacesuits, assuming you wanted to do it on the surface and not inside your nice clean moon lander.

Guillotines seem too bulky and elaborate for NASA. Keeping people alive in space is a lot of work, so it seems it ought to be very simple to just stop keeping someone alive, rather than go to the additional bother of killing them.

Also. Guillotines are very low tech and landlubbery, and not sci fi at all. I hope NASA never adopts the guillotine. In sci fi, I think the traditional method of execution is to "space" the offender by putting them in an airlock without a spacesuit and cycling the lock. That seems more fitting to the genre, and as a bonus it works in zero-gee.

yep. the Expanse tv show has a lot of this. just chuck 'em out the airlock. easy peasy. no messy clean up.
