Reply to comment by stanerd in What if an interstellar object like Oumuamua crashes into Earth? by stanerd
Check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_low-shear-velocity_provinces and this video about them: https://youtu.be/X-EZjEJc8Bo
The theory is that these large objects we see in the mantle are remnants of Theia (the planet that crashed into Earth).

Reply to MDMA appears to confer resilience in a rodent model of chronic social defeat stress by chrisdh79
Could a yearly dose of MDMA (or psilocybin/mescaline/LSD) ever replace the daily regiment of something like SSRIs/SNRIs to combat depression for some people? Would that be more effective with less damage? Or less effective and just as damaging? Has any study ever looked at such a thing? I’m sure it’s a very complex problem with many dimensions, I’ve just personally always been interested in this topic as an avid psychonaut with an interest in pharmacology. I’ve personally had really positive experiences from such drugs and I know that without them I would have had much worse mental health. They helped me in the same way that pharmaceuticals do for others. I’d be interested in seeing them become official parts of the pharmaceutical arsenal.

Reply to Netherlands: Integrated Rooftop Solar Panels, Wind Turbines For High Rise Buildings by darth_nadoma
Nice, I’ve actually been saying this for a while. Skyscrapers are a great place to put some wind turbines and solar panels. Imagine if every building could become self sustaining like that in the future.

Reply to Italian startup Energy Dome claims its CO2 grid storage batteries are cheaper than lithium-ion, and need no rare minerals, being made from just off-the-shelf steel components, water & CO2. It's opening its first 200 MWh facility in Sardinia in 2023 by lughnasadh
Amazing stuff. Battery + renewables tech are some of the most exciting things to keep an eye on these days.

Reply to A Michigan family of 4 has been missing for 4 days in 'abnormal' disappearance, police say by librarianjenn
There are phone scams going around these days that threaten to kill you and your whole family claiming they are from cartels unless a large sum of money is paid. Sometimes these scammers also use phone #s to track the people’s personal info down and use that to further try to extort money from them. I think not enough coverage of this has been done in the media but you can look it up there are a lot of people experiencing this.

Reply to comment by YareSekiro in A bold effort to cure HIV—using Crispr by Sariel007
His name is He Jiankui and he was released in April this year. He gene edited twin girls to become immune to HIV. The twin girls are being monitored by the Chinese government for a long term study now, but gene editing is still in an ethical grey area due to a lack of long term research. Both girls have been reported as being healthy so far.

6 has the best map design and exploration in the whole series. 5 has a nicer story.
Depends on what you’re looking for.
