- No one ever.Longcopylover - Seems to me that with smarter, tech'd up agricultural 'harvester' machines we could create mixed up matrices of different plant types - best of all worlds.Nairn
- I don’t think it’s that’s the soil will be dead, but topsoil will be used up of all its nutrients or something like thathardhat

https://www.npr.org/…utopian - @hardhat - I think it's that deep roots help prevent Dustbowl-like diminishment of the top layers through wind loss.Nairn
- I'm actually quite positive about soil depletion - i believe it's a resolveable situation. Just takes effort and a bit of tech.Nairn
- Some believe that much of the Amazon's Bio-Vitality comes from Terra Preta, which was a human-formed resource, made over many hundreds of years.Nairn
- Humans are like hyper-ants - we process So Much Fucking Resource. All the outputs aimed right, we can make the whole world green. If we choose.Nairn

The Eiffel Tower gets taller by up to 6 inches during the summer, when the temperature reaches as high as 40°C. ... The height of the Eiffel Tower is 324 meters on average-changes depending on the season. When the hot summer sun beats down on it, thermal expansion causes the metal to grow.

- Isn't that 9999 symbols?Nairn
- Using just one symbol would result in, for example:
•
••
•••
••••
etc.Nairn - LOL nairn look at the last line in the image. all are combined into one sign.renderedred
- I think he means a single glyph, as in you don't need to have multiple characters to define any one number.zarkonite
- I was being tongue in cheek, but sorta serious too. Squish together numerals and you can make all numbers from 'one' symbol, made up of 10 elements..Nairn
- ..and it'd be more-instantly readable than <this too.
It's still cool though!Nairn - your presumption may stem from what you were taught. using your suggestion how to write 83/38, 56/65, 14/41, 11, 22, 33, etc?imbecile
- Nairn, how would make 9000 with our numerals? their system creates shapes that are unique to each number, it's a lot of work fitting all that together.zarkonite
- In the 13th century with the tools they had, I bet this is a person's lifetime achievement LOL.zarkonite
- Visually, it's neat, but beyond cyphering, I'm not sure what problem it solves. And its creators first learned Arabic numerals, so it's arcanity anywayNairn
- of course it's useless @nairn but fun to see someone thinking out of the box in the 13th century.renderedred

1927 map of California and Nevada showing areas Hollywood used to film international destinations:
- ha, I watched Galaxy Quest the other night and had minded all those old, generally derstified, locations used in the various generations of Star Trek :)Nairn

- the best was the dukes of Hazzard, supposed to be in the lush Appalachians in Georgia but it's clearly desert-like California_niko
- There's a spot called Vasquez Rocks in California that they film a ton of sci-fi scenes in. I have been there many times.monospaced

Did you know houses in Sweden have a built-in vacuum cleaning system? They don't use vacuum clears like in other countries. You have a socket in each room and only attach the tube to it.
- Pretty standard here, tooGnash
- That's nothing, I have programmed a swarm of drones to 'fan' up dust particles and collect them in an old sock.shapesalad
- These are pretty common in the US and Canada as well.zarkonite
- we had a house that sucks when I was a teenager in Australia toosausages
- ive only seen one house in the US that has this. A custom made house of a friends parents in the 80's.fooler
- My house has one, I rerouted one line to a kickplate under a kitchen cabinet, sweep and go https://bit.ly/3qgK9…whatthefunk
- Amazing, guys. For me this was all new.SimonFFM
- Doesn't suction go down the longer a tube is?Nairn
- ^ ya, but most of that loss is through friction. The internal tubes are smooth bore, vs the corrugated hoses on the biz endGnash
- Dyson hates them.ideaist
- houses in the 50's were built with these systems in the US.sarahfailin
- Ever home that I ever been it that has one of these...they all blow ass and barely work, regardless of how many sockets they have around the house.utopian
