That’s escalation. The next is the desk glued to the wall. When this madness will end?

Reply to TIL about Demodex, or eyelash mites. They are too small to see with the naked eye, and feed off of the dead skin cells of humans. Almost every adult human alive has an eyelash mite population living on their face. by lonewolf9378
The person who discover it probably had a hard night that day. Is the world ready to embrace this nightmare?

Reply to TIL of the 1955 Le Mans disaster. French driver Pierre Levegh crashed into a crowd of spectators. The crash, explosion and subsequent fire killed 84 and injured more than 120. It is still the deadliest car race crash ever. by triviafrenzy
The fuel fire raised the temperature of the remaining Elektron bodywork past its ignition temperature, which was lower than that of other metal alloys due to its high magnesium content. The alloy burst into white-hot flames, showering the track and crowd with magnesium embers, made worse by rescue workers unfamiliar with magnesium fires who poured water onto the inferno, greatly intensifying the fire.[14][9] As a result, the car burned for several hours.

My guess: they flipped upside down so the back part , unpainted, is front. And it worked perfectly , until night came and the lights turned on. They had a bruh moment that night for sure.

Reply to ELI5 why do electric vehicles have one big battery that's hard to replace once it's expired, rather than lots of smaller ones that could be swapped out based on need (to trade off range/power/weight)? by ginonofalg
In reality they don’t have one big battery. Their big battery is a battery of batteries very similar in form to the ones you put on your toys. All those batteries need to work on unison, and need to have the most similar voltage, capacity and charge discharge cycles. If you could swap those individual cells you would create as many problems as you solve. And accessing them would be difficult because those packs are cramped between sandwiches of cooling layers. But hey, loading your car with batteries like bullets into an A10 plane ammo belt would be cool as F

Reply to comment by goltz20707 in TIL: Sperms were thought to move by wiggling their tails side-to-side, like eels, for 350 years. But research shows that they roll as they move forward like a spinning top. by vect77
That’s pretty amazing cause nature doesn’t like to evolve in rotary thingys. I think in macro world there’s only one insect specie that has a rotary mechanism? Our lives would be better if we as humans had segway wheels instead of legs.

1000 layers. Does this means that it has to be lithography-etch lithography-etch 1000 times? That’s insane. Is that cost feasible?
