Ever tried turning the handle up?

I always thought I’d be able to see more hand, not less.

Want my mother’s maiden name and my favourite pet’s name too?

Reputation in industry. If they’re viewed as crap, your degree could actually hurt you in the job market.

First year residence guarantee. Unless you’re commuting from home, see who guarantees first year residence. Depending on the city, housing could be hard to come by.

Related: distance between housing and your lecture halls. If there’s multiple campuses, make sure your housing is near the one you’ll be at.

Co-op. If applicable, you want this.

There is a non-zero number of people that do this. I’ve seen the evidence of this myself.

Corpse size still plays a role. You wouldn’t want to touch a dead tadpole, but you may not even notice.

That’s not “laminating”.

How exactly do you propose to laminate a severed head??

Dead babies don’t care how many bodies there are.

Ah, so corpse count AND proximity are both factors? Along with knowledge of the presence of said corpse?

Hard no, leaking is gross.

Corpse size has a lot to do with it. I wouldn’t swim in even a large pool with a dead human in it (knowingly), but one dead fish or rodent or dozens of dead tadpoles or bugs? Not an issue.

Heck, most household swimming pools have dozens of dead bodies in them, but they’re 99% insects.

You’re all aces, girls. {finger guns, tongue clicks, and a wink}

They’re also proud of their other son, the sanitation engineer.

I’ve only seen the sciencealert.com link, so that one.

It might be that I expect technical proficiency from science journalists, which might be a high bar.

15 days. Great. What’s the circumference? Oh, they didn’t give that either. “15 days” is still not a rotational velocity, it’s linear.

I’m not giving these folks grief for doing near impossible measurements, I’m giving the article grief for claiming a measurement was made, and then not stating said measurement.

I’m fine with even just an “order or magnitude” ballpark number. But again, they did not give us a rotational speed.

The same thing that’s wrong with saying I’m going 1250 rpm down the road. It may be correct, but doesn’t actually mean anything without more data.

They calculated it, and could only say “less than 25% of C” which isn’t even a rotational speed measurement?!? Get bent. If you don’t want to say, fine, don’t. But don’t tell me you’ve calculated something and then A) not give me that number, and B) give me a number that isn’t the number you calculated and can’t be used to determine the number you calculated without additional data that you also haven’t provided.

Belle has seen some shit, concurrently in two different places.
