Sure, but doesn't the outer surface diffusing apply to the friction of water against a submarine's hull too? No clue about theoretical quantum bubbles, but it doesn't seem like anything that would affect spaceships in particular.

Weird, for me the indentation renders correctly. Maybe because I used Jerboa and single ticks instead of triple ticks?

It's impossible to have a 0% false positive rate, it will never be ready and innocent people will always be affected. The only way to have a 0% false positive rate is with the following algorithm:

def is_shoplifter(face_scan):
return False

Uh I had to quickly look at Wikipedia but apparently the reason it's transcribed with Ph is:

At the time these letters were borrowed, there was no Greek letter that represented /f/: the Greek letter phi 'Φ' then represented an aspirated voiceless bilabial plosive /ph/, although in Modern Greek it has come to represent /f/.)

And so out of the various vav variants in the Mediterranean world, the letter F entered the Roman alphabet attached to a sound which the Greeks did not have.

So Greeks pronounced Phi differently from F and somehow someone decided that it should be transcribed as Ph because it sounded different from the transcriber's sound of F. Maybe the Phi symbol just looked like a P.

You see, there is exactly one person working for newspapers who is in charge of writing articles.

Whenever they write something criticizing something I am obsessed with, it's the only article posted on a given day and meant to distract the sheeple from some other horrific thing going on at the same time. That's not whataboutism, it's different because I'm doing it.

No, it's serious. I've been smashing my Nintendos ever since they've gone woke. Go woke, go BROKE after all.

Having to repurchase my consoles all the time gets really expensive after a while though

What would happen if I were able to put your brain in a blender and then rearrange everything exactly as it was? Would you be the same?

Indeed, the reason behind my suspicion (I cannot speak for OP who made the accusation) was that caricatures with unusually large noses representing Israel are often an antisemitic portrayal, regardless of whether the criticism holds true or not.

Criticism of Israel isn't antisemitism, except for when an antisemitic Jewish caricature is used.

How do you know they're not in the toilet stall next to yours?

You're right, looks like it's fine. The nose really seemed like an antisemitic caricature though
