How does this relate to cooking time, compared to bananas and potatoes?

Reply to comment by sonofabutch in TIL: Thanks to poor internal communication at NASA, information about a spacesuit water leak wasn't properly communicated. Later, Astronaut Luca Parmitano almost drowned on a July, 2013 ISS space walk, his helmet filling with several liters of water before they could get him back inside. by OvidPerl

There is one thing that is not doing that: Volcanoes.

Reply to comment by Jampine in TIL about cargo cults, where indigenous people of small tropical islands would perform elaborate rituals to mimic air traffic control and marching patterns after witnessing airplanes drop supplies on airforce bases during world war II. by sciencedit
Storm of Steel, i think it was? Where the iron warriors assault the gene seed planet. The guardsman has to chant the Hymn of Firing or whatever its called, but he doesnt know what that is.
So he gets frustrated, starts shouting FIRE YOU DAMN THING! and smashes a button with his fist. And lo and behold, the machine spirit listens.

Listen, it happens to all of us. You wake up in the morning, drink your cocoa, get the urge to commit crimes against humanity and abduct several hundred people to carry out your experiments, then you sit down and log in to work.

Huh, would you look at that. Just this morning I was wondering what would happen if someone got flooded by both male and female hormones but didnt feel like googling it.

My favourite hoax of this variety was when some "monks" would knead quicksliver and through the power of ancient mediation and whatnot, and the liquid mercury would congeal into solid shapes. "Science currently cannot explain how this works at all". Well, either that, or the blue water they sprinkled all over the place probably helped, forming an amalgam from the copper in it

Yeah no. We are actually in a better spot for that. Civilization would not survive long enough in that chaotic mess to go interstellar.

Most iconic foods start out as a "ok, what do we have on hand and what can we make from it?" thing. Often as a staple food for the masses.
