Just a few days ago I told my children that Tokyo is the largest city in the world.

Dad needs to keep up with the times!

The reality is much more complex that that.

And concerning population collapse, it's possible for a population to disappear if there's under a thousand isolated people. Disease, inbreeding, loss of crucial knowledge, climatic change, extreme weather, are all existential risks that a small population are exposed to.

And a pure Native American must have a common mother with a pure Aboriginal Australian about 1600 mothers ago.

Yea, a pure Native American doesn't share a mother with an Aboriginal Australian in 1250 AD lol.

You don't reproduce within the same band.

Bands meet with other bands for that.

Taiwan keeps those claims and this official name because otherwise it would be perceived as declaring Taiwan as a sovereign state, and that would anger China. Such symbolic moves are not seen as worth the risk of Chinese agression by most, or a large part of the Taiwanese population.

Preferably Catholic? Are those Europeans not aware that Europe has been cut in 3 between Catholicism, Protestantism and Orthodox Christianity since hundreds of years?

For me, fever dreams are worrying about nonsensical things.

I reuse passwords on sites where I don't care if my account gets breached.

On sites where it matters, I store them in a password manager.

On sites where money is managed, I keep the passwords only in my mind.

I learned about it because of my kid watching the Octonauts.

 

The "Activism" section is fascinating.

I have a stomach flu. My government recommends me to eat as normally as possible.

I've generally had no appetite.

And the idea of eating foods, even bland, often makes me feel nauseous.

And when I do eat, I often want to puke what I ate.

Why does my body do this if I'm supposed to fill my guts with food?

 

I'm hesitating between Vex Go and Lego Education Spike for my 7 years old son who's interested in robotics.

Vex has a good organization system which is a big plus, but Lego looks like it has more cool things you can do with it.

I wanted to compare what customers thought but I have trouble finding indormation so I'm turning to you. Anyone has had experience with these products or any other?

Thank you
