I mean, it's not a huge difference, were talking about early fetal development, the gonads all develop from the same tissue, pretty much every part of the penis and vagina and broader reproductive system maps directly to corresponding similar features. It was just a question of how and when exactly that process takes place.

Yeah it's pretty common for mostly or entirely adhesive to be used for attaching plastic trim panels. Just needs proper engineering and construction that can be verified to withstand the needed stress after endless temperature and humidity cycles. My first guess as to the issue here is either it just wasn't manufactured well because they're all made by underpaid, undertrained and overworked non-union workers or because the engineers didn't properly account for thermal cycling given how unbearably hot I'm sure stainless steel gets in the sun. (I'm sure the steel parts and the plastic parts also expand and contract significantly different amounts due to heat as well, further stressing the adhesive joints)

I thought it was purely due to inadequate rounding of angles on the body due to stricter pedestrian safety laws that the EU has. Does the EU have some kind of build quality testing and standard that the cybertruck failed?

Kind of an outdated view of biological development, I think the more accurate modern one is that tissues start out undifferentiated then either default to differentiating to female or are triggered to differentiate to male. So if anything everyone's intersex now.

I mean, you're preaching to the choir, I haven't owned an ICE car in about 7 years, and no car at all for about 4 years. I'm just trying to correct misrepresentations. Concern about CO emissions is a silly reason to be concerned about modern ICE cars, it's not a big issue really. Realities of fossil fuel dependence and use and its affects on the environment both locally and worldwide seem like the larger concerns by a large factor.

Almost always when a catalytic converter dies it is because there's something wrong with the car that damaged the cat. I never actually worked in a smog shop so I can't give meaningful numbers but we had plenty of 20-30 year old test cars come through the school shop with original catalytic converters that still worked fine. And I was not claiming that no CO comes out of the tailpipe of modern cars, just not enough to be a meaningful issue, it's not a particularly persistent environmental gas outside of confined spaces. It's not a major smog component, it's just toxic if it's allowed to build up, and most modern cars aren't putting out enough of it for it to build up to dangerous levels without REALLY trying.

I literally was CA SMOG trained. The catalytic converter should last the lifetime of the vehicle, it is a CATALYST after all, and the amount of CO coming out of a healthy cars tailpipe should be pretty small, around .1% to .5%. There are actually lots of cases where people failed to kill themselves because auto exhaust just isn't THAT acutely toxic anymore.

EDIT: I double checked my old memory, my memory switched 1/1000 with PPM for CO readings on gas analyzers, so it's significantly more than I remembered, but still significantly less than "spewing"

In case it was unclear, don't breathe car tailpipes, it's obviously still very bad for you

Wait isn't that basically how it works in Stardew Valley too?

Modern cars already don't spew carbon monoxide... Modern catalytic converter deal with that.

The best thing you can do is to push your state and governor do the same if there's any chance.

Amazing show but I'm not giving them credit for it. The Expanse was a ScyFy original that ScyFy idiotically dropped and Amazon picked up and managed not to ruin
