Reply to Have you ever thought about what it sounds on jupiter by Western_Home6746

It is a gas giant. No place to "land" it is constantly swirling with storms thicker and higher than our atmosphere. Forget our squishy bodies, we don't have spacecraft that can withstand the radiation or survive the pressure. There is a reason we can't hear more. We don't have equipment that could survive it, and even if we did, it would be limited by what the equipment could reproduce in the way of sounds in an atmosphere that is not equivalent. So at best it would be a simulation based on and limited by our technology.

And forget hundreds of years, even over millenniums, why would our bodies "adapt" to be able to handle environments we never will come in contact with? We live on a planet that is 3/4 covered in water and we haven't "adapted" enough to be able to live in water. Heck, we can't even survive in some land environments without the help of clothing or shelter.

It is an interesting thought game to wonder, but one that we will never actually know the answer to.

Reply to comment by itsaboutpasta in When I see families trick or treating on the Sunday before Halloween by TimSPC

This is a "tradition" that ended long ago for just about any holiday. The sale is usually now a week (sometimes 2) ahead of the event so that they have nothing left.

Trying to buy candy even the week before is a crap shoot, because they are already sold out of some of the food stuff and all you have left is the junk nobody wants.

There is no cheap chocolate on sale for Halloween, same goes for the old joke of waiting until the day after Valentine's Day to get the candy at half off, or buying wrapping paper after Christmas. It just isn't a thing any more because of computerized inventory systems. They estimate how much they would sell and seemingly would rather run out early than be stuck with some extra that they have to put on sale.

Reply to comment by jerseygunz in New Jersey already bans smoking in parks and on beaches, but it could soon extend that prohibition to a slew of other public spaces: Assemblywoman Murphy reintroduced a measure that would expand the smoking ban to boardwalks, race tracks, amusement parks, historic sites, and burial sites by rollotomasi07071

Yes, but in NJ, if you can't smoke there, you can't Vape there.

That was all thanks to one lawmaker who years ago thought she saw someone smoking where is was banned, complained to management about it, but was informed they were vaping. But she was not satisfied because it "looked like they were smoking" went back to Trenton and introduced a bill to add vaping to the "clean air act" (which passed)
