Foundation is one of the few adaptations that I think benefits from it's lack of fidelity to the source material.
I think they actually made these changes more in an attempt to make it good than poor writing or lack of respect for the source material.
I'll be more pissed at apple not finishing the series than the writing or accuracy.
Tbh this isn't a bad take. The books revolutionised science fiction writing and it deserves credit for that but that was 1942. They haven't aged well. But nuclear powered everything is funny to read about from today's perspective. I loved that the show actually mentioned nuclear powered ashtray as an Easter egg.
Asimov forgot to even acknowledge women existed until much later. So the show is less gender swap and more actually including women at all 😅
Omega mart in Las Vegas might come close?
Can't think of large scale ones unless you include the rest of Las Vegas.
I'm surprised nobody is talking about accidentally flash-boiling in the microwave. Is that because they microwave the tea bag in the water in the cup? Because if you have clean water without the teabag, you could get a cup of exploding water in your face after you disturb the cup.
Maybe there is enough lead in the water to prevent this in America.
As cute as that sounds, for dogs, reducing separation anxiety is counterintuitive.
The more emotional both departing and returning is. The more it hurts them when you leave, the more separation anxiety develops.
In an ideal world, when you leave your dog for the day, saying nothing when going and a professionally distant "greetings puppy" when you return will reduce anxiety for a dog when left alone. This doesn't work by itself; you have to teach them to be alone slowly and carefully.
This is like someone standing in Times Square saying, "I don't go to New York or tourist destinations!"
Why are you here? How did you manage to get here?
Just because your parents have dogs doesn't mean they can offer a safe environment or know what to do with them. All the changes and the environment posed for your dog are incredibly stressful for the dog. Please be compassionate that your dog is going through more than you even though you literally broke your leg and probably experienced the worst pain in your life. Changes in living situations are the biggest adjustments for dogs ever.
Please don't listen to people suggesting anything with the word dominance, pack mentality, wolf study, punishment or anything forcefull. All of that is guaranteed to make things worse.
A certified trainer (CCPDT and the various acronyms associated, the dog academy, anyone force force free) will get you on course faster than any website or book.
If you want your dog to make it out of this, your dog has to be a priority, make it your part time job.
My quick advice if you can't afford a trainer and will only look up free internet advice from strangers:
Start with giving them something low value to chew on in a distraction free room. Have 10 minutes worth of super high value treats. When they are chewing the low value, walk up to them and give them the treat. Let them chew on the low value again. Repeat. Try for 10 minutes at a time. Adjust value of chew and treat so they don't react when you walk up to them.
Next session, If they start wagging their tail when you approach. Try making it harder by taking the item for 1 second then, give them the treat then give it back. Ramp up duration or value of chew and items as progress is made
All of this has to be a happy and joyful affair. You are using a happy and friendly puppy voice the whole time. The dog has to feel good about this the whole time. So make sure you and the dog are in as good of a place mentally when doing it. This will all be harder if the dog doesn't have other prerequisites like a leave it or drop it command.
There are so many ways you need to modify the above strategy for your particular dog that I can't stress enough how valuable you'll find a certified force free trainer to be. A vet check might also be suggested by the trainer. I think my advice is barely scratching the surface of what to do and how to do it, I haven't even met your dog so what do I even know? Very little!

Why should these things be free? The other things we get for free on the web are either supported by donations or they harvest something from you that's valuable and sell it, that's not free either.
I'm into the idea of paying for higher quality services and have enjoyed my kagi trial. Might see if I can find someone to split an account with.
Congrats Montreal! So far you can't go wrong with more bike paths, but I guess that's easy to say for a Calgarian.
I definitely prefer premium over my personal data being the product for "free".
As I get older I'm appreciating paid electronic services and content when done responsibly in exchange for a private ad-free and well done experience. But it's taking a lot to get over my decades of conditioning assuming everything on a computer and internet should be "free".
I've enjoyed my kagi premium search trial and seeing the prices is a bit much. But getting really good search results and having the webpage or search run so fast and seeing my ad blocker greyed out because there were no ads and trackers to block is surreal this day and age.
I just wish we had a better way of trusting telegram. The only thing encrypted by default is secret chats. I'd buy premium if it made all chats including group chats started by the user encrypted by default.
I thought FTL communication is just a fun typical science fiction understanding of quantum entanglement.
I thought we would still have to know what is going on at the probe via another means to know or decode the message sent by the entangled particles to their counterparts on Earth.
Kind of like putting two letters in two envelopes but we don't know what colour they are, just that they will always be opposite colours. Even the person arranging them doesn't know which colour they are. We don't know if a red letter is sent to London or a green one is sent to LA or what colour they'll be at all. But when we open the letter in London and see that it's the red one we know the other one in LA is green.
So no matter where or when the person with the red letter is, they'll always know the other person has the green one once they open the letter. But no information has been mysteriously transported across space and time, just the correlation between the two has been discovered.
Do people wake up in the middle of the night and drink a whole bottle of water? Am I missing something?
I'm usually like "don't want to be warm under the covers and need to pee, I don't dare hydrate past 9 pm"
