At least 34 dead, dozen hospitalized after drinking illegally brewed liquor in southern India
  • Dude ikr. You have to actively try to make methanol when you’re distilling, like only collecting the foreshots over and over.

    And by that point I’d be super easy to tell it’s not regular alcohol because it will smell like nail polish remover and other volatile compounds.

  • What industry do you work in and what are the LPT the general public should know about it?
  • Comstruction:

    If you want to build the best building you gotta know every detail about how it’s made, which you can only get close to by hiring competent consultants (i.e.: architects, engineers, etc) Because if you’re not specific about what you want, you can bet your ass you’re getting the cheapest version.

  • Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite prototype that runs Linux emerges from Tuxedo:12-core CPU with 32GB RAM and surprise, surprise, Debian
  • If only we could prod decision makers at the big software companies to actually support Linux…

    Those fucks are way too greedy though. I mean AutoCAD hasn’t even got any significant feature updates in years let alone support for any platform other than Windows and they still charge insane prices for it just cause they can. And at the end of the day me and everyone at work are all stuck on shitty Windows.

  • Removed
    TBH 6 was kind of a downgrade from 5
  • That’s what sucks about Civ (and EU4, HOI4 and the like for that matter) — once you figure out how it works and you start winning it becomes boring in single player.

    And then for multiplayer it’s hard to find someone committed to playing for long stretches of time consistently.

    IMO games where losing is fun is where it’s at, like Crusader Kings, Rimworld and Dwarf Fortress.

  • What are the best alternatives to Amazon for buying new (or used) books?
  • Facebook marketplace for used books and used goods in general. Lots of good quality basically new stuff on there for cheap. I guess because so many Canadians just buy stuff without thinking and then it piles up and they need to make space.

    Some neighbourhoods also have some boxes on posts (not sure what they’re called, they resemble mailboxes) where people can take and give away books for free as well.

    You can also type ‘bookstores’ in google maps and seeing what local stores will come up.

  • What do you think of the culinary industry ?
  • Can confirm. Was a waiter for about 6 months. Everyone there at the very least smoked cigs, weed, drank, and got completely shitfaced almost everyday after the shift. I imagine for cooks they could do it during their shift. Heard meth and crack are very popular too but I never seen it myself.

    I think it’s the combo of the stress, the low salary, and high turnover. The ones that stay develop coping mechanisms. I imagine a few get lucky and get to work at fancy places too.

  • Blackholes
  • Its all about money at the end of the day. For instance, the uni I attended is shutting down its entomology programme while continuing to pump large amounts of money into cell bio.

  • Kombucha I made in 2021

    I ran out space in my fermenter so I used orange juice containers. The picture was taken after one day of fermentation iirc. I released the pressure when I saw it. Lol
