Using regular physics a human scaled up that much they would immediately start to collapse into a pulpy sphere of mostly water, which would further collapse into a star. If you ignored the giant human's body pull on itself, then you'd have to look at the Earth pull on the flesh of the giant, trying to put what amounts to a giant hand shaped water balloon inside a planets roshe limit probably won't end well. If we ignore that, then the Earth would be deep inside your hand's gravitational field, so you probably wouldn't need to squeeze, just having your giant hand near the Earth would cause it to rip itself apart. If we ignore all the gravity based physics then the question becomes "How would muscles larger than planets actually work?".
I guess what I'm trying to say here is that to answer your question is "We have to ignore so much physics to make your question even possible that it's kinda meaningless." It's like asking "If ducks were made of cheese how fast could they fly?"
I'm guessing Trump's plan to end the war is "Back Russia and help Putin crush Ukraine." Because (much like Trump's own sycophants) he doesn't realize that he'll the first under the bus when his master no longer needs him.
Okay... why was gold so "vital to [the Anunnaki's] survival"? Did they eat it? Tooth fillings? Cell phones? Gold plated audio jacks?
Also with differentiated asteroids like Vesta, Ceres (and maybe Psyche) they're entirely cold. So rather than scrabbling around for the flecks of gold on the surface like on Earth, you can just tunnel down into the core and mine all the heavy metals that sunk during the planetoid's molten era.
may help establish life on the red plane
We should... ya know, make sure there is no life there first. Even a small planet is a big place, and we've looked in very few places. Also even if there is no life there's still a lot Mars could tell us about what a pre-biotic Earth was like.
I just think we need to examine the only other terrestrial planet in the system that won't light you on fire fairly thoroughly before trying to terraform it into a Wish-dot-com version of Earth.
Yields from this sort of grafting will almost always be lower than a tomato plant and a potato plant alone. A plant has a kinda "energy budget" for growth; It uses this much energy for vegetative growth, that much for roots, some more for fruit, etc. A tomato/potato graft is trying to "spend" large amounts of energy both growing large tomato fruits and growing tubers underground, so you end up with mediocre yields of both.
Even the tiny fruits a potato grows represent a small energy loss. Which (IMO) is why so many popular potato breeds don't produce true seed, you get just a little bit more potato that way.
Interestingly sometimes in potato breeding the opposite of this graft is used, a potato top on tomato roots. That way the potato greenery is flush with nutrients and can set a much heavier crop of fruits, allowing breeders to collect more seeds from their potential cross.
We've got sunflowers all over with similar DNA doesn't mean they somehow blew over. Cranberries of Europe And USA have similar DNA but that doesn't mean they blew over here.
Someone should explain how birds work to this guy.
It's Kryptonite. We know what happened to Superman in this dimension now.

Fixed.
It's so nice to see a developer doing this rather then going the "Here's a updated version of the game! Also we're removing access the originals so it's the only version available now." route.
The terrible thing about these isn't the fake orange juice combined with rot gut vodka, it's that (at least in my area) they want twelve freaking dollars for this shit. That's three bucks a can!
You could literally buy an entire jug of not-orange juice as well as a 750 ml bottle of vodka for less.
High altitude northern California. It's snow and ice during the winter, high and dry desert during the summer and alternates during the spring and fall. This May it went from 80 degree weather to freezing at night in the space of two days and then back again in the same span. Also, my yard is subsoil fill, I've been gardening for years and my garden bed soil is only just getting to marginal.
There's been research that language shapes how we perceive the world around us. Because there was no word for "blue" there was no concept of blue, the color still existed but their brains just lumped it into "green". Sight works by the visual centers brain taking data from the eyes, throwing most of it out, then building a model which is what the rest of the brain gets to actually "see". That's why optical illusions work.
A commonly cited source for language shaping our perception of color is Jules Davidoff's studies on the Himba tribe. The Himba have no word for blue, and they struggled to pick out the blue square from this color wheel. However, they do have many distinctions for shades of green so when given this color wheel they could easily pick out the square that's a different shade of green (and yes I opened it in MSpaint to check and one of the green squares is a different shade.)
Bunch of uneducated goons.
Oh, they know they're lying, they just want to lie so much they bury the truth re-write the past (which is kinda ironic if you think about it, given that whole eight commandment). It's kinda the same way the "Lost Cause of the Confederacy" is embedded into American mythology despite being a after-the-fact whitewashing of history.
I view "reporting on the obvious" as being in the same vein as "a scientific report proving the obvious." Sure we all know it's true, but now there's actually documentation you can point too.
Ha, you think they'll be that generous? They'll probably charge her for 43 years of room and board.
At least at one major auto maker, environmental and serious health concerns are outweighing its aesthetic appeal.
Suuurree they are. Hasn't chromium getting more expensive over the past couple years? I'm guessing this sudden concern about the environment and the health of the workers will save them quite a bit of money in the long term.
Still, credit where credit is due, at least this cost cutting measure that actually has positive benefits for once.
IIRC it's because they classified the bong water as the controlled substance. As such it's treated as if she were smuggling a half pound or so of meth rather then bong water that tested positive for methamphetamine.
IMHO it's the flashing lights. I really think they overload the self driving software somehow and it starts ignoring changes in driving conditions (like say an emergency vehicle parked in the road).
My only problems with Impossible products is they're usually quite a bit saltier than actual meat and of course that it's usually more expensive then meat products. If they fixed both of those problems I'd be okay with replacing a good percentage of my meat consumption with them.

Since there is no thread about this on Lemmy, I figured I may as well make one in case someone hadn't heard about it.
Anyway, a new app called Netpass has been released that allows Streetpass over the internet. The app is still kinda rough, a few games like Tomodachi Life have a minor bugs, but for the most part it works almost exactly like if you conventionally streetpassed someone.
So I was browsing SteamDB.info looking at the various games on sale when I noticed there were a bunch of games (usually from the publisher Hede, but there's quite a few others) listed as having a discount in the high nineties, yet still costing in the neighborhood of 30-50 dollars. Even odder when I go to the game's Steam, it's not listed as being on sale and costs the... "normal" price of $99.99.
I'm just wondering A) What the scam is here, B) How a SteamDB.info is getting $99.99 dollar game as costing 30-ish dollars when it's 97% off but at the same time it's apparently not actually on sale?
