Permanent ice caps have been quite rare in geological history. This new study suggests that's because you need to right combination of paleogeography (which affects weathering rates), exposed lithology (different rocks draw down more/less CO2 as they weather, and plate tectonic configuration (which affects volcanic degassing), all working in the same direction, to get into an icehouse.

'Many of those who wind up in therapy are nihilists, or depressive realists, rather than existentialists. (Yes, the latter may still seek and need treatment and may even fluctuate between nihilism and existentialism.) And when they do, more often than not they place the burden of proof on the therapist, expecting the clinician to create an airtight case against their views while not acknowledging how their commitment to irrational thought precludes a successful rebuttal. At once, the patient indicates that he would and wouldn't change, setting the bar so high that it necessitates the inevitable "I told you so." It isn't that people want to be unhappy; it's that they don't believe they can tolerate their fears or have good things. Fundamentally, to them, the existential choice is between hopelessness and eventual disappointment. So, as they evade, they project their anger onto the world and say, "It isn't me who's awful; it's all of you."'
A Better Alternative to Defensive Pessimism
How existentialism differs from nihilism, and why it may be the better option.
Defensive pessimism is a strategy that is used to deal with fear and is often part of a nihilistic worldview. Existentialism offers a better and more realistic alternative.Leon Garber LMHC (Psychology Today)

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮 • • •Yeah €55 for a piece of plastic doesn't sound bad at all, right? For that price it should have been from different materials, I'd say.
If you want it plastic, just print it on a 3D printer, treat it in food-grade epoxy and you're good-to-go. If you don't plan on using it for food, you can skip the epoxy.

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮 • • •There are print services which will do it for a much more reasonable price. As for time, perhaps, but in my opinion it's a few hours at most.
Either way, that price for a piece of plastic looks disgusting to me.
