  • I have no idea. It was just something I noticed. If I were to guess, it's just some odd combination of dust, resistance, and the architecture of the cores that causes a hundred little things to mesh together into a whine.

  • The lethal doses of 55 substances
  • Aye, I've always liked the ratio better. It really puts into perspective how fast and loose some of our entertainments are. Compare the health warnings on OTC drugs like tylenol/acetaminophen/paracetamol to the bare minimum labeling of alcohol, yet alcohol's equivalent (or much less, in some estimations) to the painkiller.

  • Machines don't know their place
  • I wish fucking supermarkets would understand this. I don't have to be told in a super loud fucking annoying voice that I need to place the object in the bagging area, or switch to the other machine to use my card. I've already hit the fucking button to use the cc machine, you fucking nonces! I've already placed the goddamn stupid fucking bananas in the stupid fucking bagging area, shut the fuck up! AAAAAH!

    It's even worse now because you used to be able to mute the mother fucker, but now they've disabled that option.

  • Measles is a 'heat-seeking missile' experts warn as Florida outbreak grows
  • As much as I'd love to see that, the likelihood of it happening is low. The boards move on public opinion and consensus. The public they care about may be only other doctors, but as we've seen since covid, there are plenty of doctors who listened to Ozzy and boarded the crazy train.

  • Alcohol should be banned everywhere.
  • Whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah! Everything else is fine, but you leave my condoms alone! A man needs something in the middle of the night when he gets up for the glass of water and then starts feeling a little peckish. Hunger should not be denied.

  • How the Justice Department foils assassination plots in the U.S.
  • Is it just me, or did they pick the worst title they could think of? They mention a few assassinations from history, give their opinion that the amount of them is increasing and why they think so, and... that's it. Wrap it up folks, we've kept people's attention for about a minute.

  • Adult daughter. Should I disown her!?
  • And then group c proceeds to grab the first dish with some flippant saying about it being no big deal. It's not just weaponized incompetence or avoiding any help at that point, it's being an asshole. Living with others that don't have cooperation as a goal is a nightmare.

  • Darryl George: Texas judge rules school district can restrict the length of male students’ natural hair
  • I think the "focusing on narrow definitions of words" is the part that makes this bullshit. Any judge can interpret as widely or as narrowly as they want. They do it all the time. They just pander to one side of the divide when that's the ruling they want to get to.

  • Darryl George: Texas judge rules school district can restrict the length of male students’ natural hair
  • The honest answer is because it brings in sponsorship money from local businesses who want to advertise to locals who are going to go to games, it brings in alumni money from any former student who made it big in athletics (and those who have fond memories of athletics), and it brings in money from people who think a particular team/coach is good and thus want to have their kids go there. Yes, school choice is a big enough thing that I know families who have moved so their kid is in a particular school's district.

    Image is a big part of that. It's also because many well-meaning people see athletics as a way to help a student get out of being poor, offer financial mobility, etc. So athletics get pushed from many people coming from different angles.

  • My Interests as a kid: vs My Interests as an adult:
  • What's your favorite dinosaur? Mine was definitely the utah raptor, after reading that one book written in the first person about what it's life might have been. But then again, big and lethal stuff is coooool, so King T might be a contender.

  • Negative affects of obesity
  • You might be misremembering the doctor, or he was being general, because the issue we found with adolescent females (and some males, though I saw less of them) was that they were hiding their shots (not taking them), so that they would by hyperglycemic. Your body is constantly using fat as an energy source simply due to metabolic pathways, but the one that really kicks into overdrive is the ketone production when there is not a good source of carbohydrates, because certain areas of the body (the brain is the big one) do not use protein catabolism for energy production and rely on either glucose or ketones to feed into the kreb cycle.

    Smart kids either made the connection in their high school bio classes or heard the information passed along at the doctor's office, and there was a large wave of DKA hospitalizations that happened due to avoiding the shots of insulin.

  • I am genuinely horrified to see how much data google collected from me
  • The faces training was all of the filters. Every single time someone took a video or picture and used filters to add cute moe eyes, or make themselves look like a crab, it was being used to make whichever company was doing it have a better bottom line or to accelerate their facial recognition.

  • Pickled jalapeños aren't jalapeños

    If I ask for jalapeños somewhere, I should never get those disgusting pickled rings of bland mush.

    If you were to tell someone to go buy a cucumber, and they come back with a pickle, you'd rightfully be irritated. If the salad said it had cucumbers and you end up with pickle slices, you'd be revolted. If you said you wanted cabbage on the sandwich, and they put sauerkraut underneath your aioli, you'd be rightfully pissed.

    And if I pick the jalapeño add-in option on a website, write it down on the grocery list, or god forbid see it as part of the description of a food, I shouldn't get the half-rotted, piss-soaked, completely-devoid-of-spicy-except-for-the-acid-of-the-pickling-juice excuse for a pepper slice that some asshole out there decided was a decent way to sell his old peppers.

    We don't call pickles (gherkins, whatever) cucumbers. We don't call sauerkraut cabbage.
