Flares are related to the complex magnetic fields of stars. Since red dwarfs are more compact, I can imagine that the magnetic field also being more compact will result in it being more messy, especially if its strength doesn’t scale with the star’s size. The more chaotic magnetic field would result in more flares/more violent flares.

It’s just a bad headline, I think it’s on highway G318 in Tibet, so you might be able to see Everest from there but you’re probably not starting a hike from the charging station.

It’s on the Tibetan side of Everest, and it reads like it’s on China National Highway 318 (G318 on Google maps), which is actually really not very close to Everest but I guess it’s the nearest main route on the northern side. Totally misleading headline. The average elevation of the Tibetan plateau is 4500m so the actual headline is “china builds an EV charging station on a main road in Tibet”. The base camps that most international travellers use are on the Nepalese side.

You don’t need to put it in the gear opposite to the direction it’ll roll. Generally you want to put it in the gear with the lowest ratio (which in my car I think is first), as that will require the most amount of force to turn the engine. But also some engines shouldn’t be rotated backwards because that might damage them. So that would mean put it in first facing downhill or reverse facing uphill.

Seems like it. SSTL (who made this satellite) do loads of earth observation stuff already so the MOD probably just bought time on those satellites like you said.

What does ctrl do on its own?

They didn’t even bother moving the other ones away after one was hit? Then there looks to be one painted on the floor at the bottom of the image

You can opt out of audiobooks and save the extra cost they added the other month. https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/news/2024/05/spotify-saving-basic-plan-audiobooks/?source=CRM-MSETIP-84b484ca1c047788624

You can’t really grow the same crop in the same field season after season (without fertiliser), because they’ll sap the specific nutrients they need from the soil. If you do that over and over eventually the soil wont have any food for that crop. Growing something different each season that takes different nutrients from the soil lets it recover the other ones. I don’t know how it recovers on its own, circle of life stuff probably. Modern farming can cheat by artificially replenishing the nutrients with fertiliser.

I didn’t think the vogons were the ones with the answer to the ultimate question in H2G2

He was, and was part of the reason remain failed because they thought it would be an easy win

What about soft cheeses like brie and camembert?

An LGBT?

Could just be sitting sort of cross legged with his right leg tucked in underneath

I think the atmosphere can increase in volume when it gets warm because it’s not a proper closed system, so the pressure doesn’t go up in the same way.

I too watched veritasium today

They meant to say you interpreted the comment incorrectly, but that got autowronged to “commenting correctly”.
