They were trying to show the hero-like pronunciation applied. Think of e.g. Hercules.

A motorcycle has a higher chance of killing its rider rather than bystanders, when compared to cars.
The graph is from this article: https://peakoilbarrel.com/carrying-capacity-overshoot-and-species-extinction/
...which cites the article you linked, but also this paper: https://vaclavsmil.com/wp-content/uploads/PDR37-4.Smil_.pgs613-636.pdf
It would be nicer, if it was in some renown journal, so we'd know some sort of peer review has taken place. This certainly could still be entirely made up. But it looks a lot more convincing/sourced than most articles.
I'm not exactly fond of the space either, but man, the T is noisy. They could've gone with an underscore or something, so it actually looks like two different sections.
Well, typically, being married for 60 years would also involve not dying for the past 70+ years...
Google is blocking popular instances these days, so yeah, you basically need to find an unpopular instance, which usually means it's new and may not live for long, or it will quickly become popular, because it works, which will cause Google to block it.
Yeah, Google started blocking popular instances of Invidious and Piped in May this year: https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/issues/3822
Every so often, it may start working again when those instances get a different IP address, but it usually doesn't last more than a few days...
Das ist nicht so doof wie du vermutlich denkst, also dass die Leute von den Schweizer Alpen träumen würden.
Der Wortstamm ist hier "Alb", ein geisterhaftes Wesen aus dem Germanischen Volksglauben, und das wurde im Mittelhochdeutschen "Alp" geschrieben. Daher kommt auch "Elb" und (als Reimport vom Englischen) "Elf".
Also wenn du statt bergigen Landschaften eher Flüße oder Zahlen gruselig findest, dann könntest auch einen Elbtraum oder Elftraum haben.

I just don't care to put substances in my body that are effectively toxic. If you think, being high at all times is the best way to live life, then more power to you.
Really, it's annoying that people think we're judgemental. I'm guessing, lots of folks judge themselves for it, but as long as everyone else does the drugs, they aren't confronted with that.
As soon as I dare to exist, not putting toxic substances into my body, they'll feel judged, because I'm adhering to their moral standard of not doing drugs, effectively reminding them that it would be doable.
If I come up with some bullshit reasoning, like I'm the designated driver, rather than the truth that I just don't want it, they'll feel more at ease. Although, I guess, that would also be the case, if they truly thought I was actively judging them.
The English pronunciation of Hercules is effectively the same as the German pronuncation.
Important for the joke is that the normal pronunciation for molecules differs, even though it also ends on -cules...
