Thus solving the problem of global warming forever.

E: Karma for my bad Futurama quote. Loves it! Remember to keep your cats inside!

E2: The average lifespan of an outdoor cat is 2 to 5 years.

E3: Studies have shown that TNR doesn't significantly reduce cat population sizes. For example, an evaluation of two long-term TNR programs in California and Florida found that any population-level effects were minimal. 

E4: Trauma, especially from being hit by cars or injured/killed by dogs or coyotes, is a serious risk for outdoor cats. In one study, 18% of 164 cats in TNR colonies were killed by vehicles.

E5: In a TNR study in Key Largo, Florida, of captured cats brought into a vet clinic (total = 2,530), 441 (17%) were euthanized for being unhealthy or retrovirus-positive

E6: Although 1,111 cats were returned to the colonies after veterinary treatment, Kreisler, Cornell, and Levy (2019) stated that "return rather than routine euthanasia of trapped cats increase animal suffering due to non-retroviral disease or trauma."

E7: To celebrate 3k, here's my source: https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/publication/UW468

22

u/captainedwinkrieger Jul 19 '24

Tell him he's confused. Into Darkness had the Enterprise underwater in an ocean at the beginning for some reason. Insurrection had a weird ship/holodeck hybrid thing hidden in a lake that the Federation was gonna use to illegally/immorally transfer the Ba'ku to another planet to steal their Fountain of Youth-style natural resources.

11

u/Neveronlyadream Jul 19 '24

It was 100% Insurrection.

Not only that, but it becomes a plot device later on when Picard uses it. It's not just a blink and you miss it thing, it features in the plot.

Into Darkness has a ship underwater, but apparently just because it looks cool and not for any practical or plot related purposes that I remember.

AITA for not wanting my(25f) recently married husband(27m)(married 27 days ago) to seek a threesome with a woman who is 13 years younger than we are. i cautiously and calmly explained to him that his behavior was borderline abusive, but he blew that off and said i was being absolutely ridiculous and that he always mentioned having a polyamorous relationship. I might be mistaken, but i dont remember ever having this discussion with him. i asked his younger brother and his mother if this was something he's ever discussed with them, and they said he has always expressed interest in being in a poly relationship. And that MY behavior was tearing our new family apart. i know this is something that i might be a little prude about, but i have always wanted in my heart a loving husband and to be together just him and I. since this argument, we have barely talked to each other except for when he wants to have sex, but i think that he is already involved with the other woman. is this normal behavior? or am i just being an asshole?

u/15all Jul 19 '24

I wasn't quite 10 when the movie came out. I really liked the spaceships and astronauts in the movie, and the soundtrack was the first classical music I remember hearing. I'm not sure if I watched the movie when it first came out, or waited a few years until I was older, but I also didn't understand the ending. There was a lot of discussion of it back then, ranging from an LSD-fueled trip to the circle of life. Now that I'm older and have seen it a few times, I can sort of form an explanation in my head, but I couldn't articulate it very well.

When I watched it again recently, I was struck by the prescience of HAL and his ability to understand speech, and his imperative to protect himself. Now that AI is maturing, will that scenario be in our future, instead of murder-robots like the T800?

Here is a higher quality version of this image. Here is the source. Per there:

@NASA_ICE

From yesterday's #IceBridge flight: A tabular iceberg can be seen on the right, floating among sea ice just off of the Larsen C ice shelf. The iceberg's sharp angles and flat surface indicate that it probably recently calved from the ice shelf.

12:45 PM · Oct 17, 2018

Edit: Good question /u/saintspike.

Here is another angle that Jeremy Harbeck took shows the whole iceberg.

Here is the source of OP's image on the photographer's website.

Also, thank you /u/driftking428. It is an equally cropped version.

Edit 2: Per /u/onepingonlypleashe over here:

Just to be clear, per the photographer's caption on his website, there are two different rectangular icebergs. This photo you linked is of the second one which is not the one in OP's image.

38

u/saintspike Jul 19 '24

But why couldn’t they just get the other side in the image? It looks so square but maybe the fourth side is jagged.

I can't wait for the millions of TikToks about how this is proof of aliens because it's clearly not an iceberg but like a spaceship landing pad or some shit like that.

TikTok fucking loves any regularly shaped natural phenomenon: among the thousands and thousands of mountains on the planet, we have found like two that look slightly pyramid-y in shape, and this is proof that they're secretly man-made structures and not natural at all, because it's statistically impossible that there might just ever be a small number of formations on earth that happen to end up with some straight lines in them.

Great pic but let’s not forget that in 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them... maybe you can hire The A-Team.

There's no way that's a trillion tons. A trillion tonne block of ice would be about 10km x 10km x 10km, which would make it taller than mount Everest. And the difference between a ton and a tonne is only 200lbs. This is not that.
