  • A Lot of supposed Superpowers dont physical sense. Eg, capable to stop the time, a great superpower in some movies, the reallity is, you would survive it not even some seconds. If the time stops, all materia, even atoms become inmovil, means, you can’t even breath and you die frozen at 0 Kelvin before you can say “shit…”. Nice an skeleton of Andamantiom, indestructible, but the pass port to an conyinuos blood transfusuion, because of the lack of bone marrow in a metal bone. Same with most other Avengers and Superheroes which are violating any physical law. Well, maybe Batman…


  • It was invented basing on bets in Shipping Companies, about if the oversee shipping reach the haven or not. Insurances are in essence bets over determinated risks or issues and they never lose. You pay an quote through your whole life for something, eg your health and in case you have an accident, they pay the costs (or not or only a part, at least in the US), if not, you had payed for nothing, never they pay what their users had apported with their quotes in a lot of years. They always gain a lot of money with it, because of this there are a lot of insurance companies of any kind. it’s a gold mine. In the Lottery it’s also an risk which you pay, you can pay regulary for the Lotto and you can have luck and you gain some money, or bad luck and buying Lotto your whole life and never gain a cent. In essence the same as in a insurance, paying through your whole life and never need it. Not so different, the risk is always for you, not for the company, these always pay only a small fraction of their incomming,




  • I’m from the EU (Spain), they are 100% in the metric system, but the Imperial system is certainly difficult to kill, for reasons I don’t know, used in Nautics, Air Traffics and curiously also in Plumbing, where tubes are still in inches. The biggest drawback in the Imperial system is that it leads to errors (NASA crashed 2 Mars probes because of it, before changing to the metric system), it’s because the different units don’t have any relations among these and are complete arbitrarily, which difficult a lot of precise calculations. Never was a good idea to use the bodyparts of a death King as measure units.
