Born to lose, live to win.
Around (4 to 6) * 10^(26 to 27) J total
1 gigawatt is 10^9 J/s (so around 130 billion years to reach the above.) For a terawatt that’s 130 million years. For a petawatt 130,000 years. For an exawatt about 130 years…
Note: the sun bathes Earth with around 170,000 TW (0.17 exawatts) of energy. That’s about 700-800 years if you could make the oceans sink all that sun energy. Again, this isn’t the total output of the Sun but just what impacts Earth directly.
The reference is my formal education in the subject matter. I’m honestly quite certain this person needs an education more than a paper that without such an education they’d fail to comprehend.
It’s a search engine for scientific literature.
I’m set off? 😂
It’s very difficult to prove a negative. There’s tons of papers out there with weak evidence and poor methodologies and very low citations claiming various non-ionizing EM are bad. The problem is the lack of reproducibility. You can look up meta-analysis on this, if you like.
Well shit, now you’re in a list.
Also even if you didn’t cook it the germs that live in soil are not the same germs that make you sick, those you get from your fellow humans.
Ya, sure, you’ve obviously never heard of gardia, tetanus, botulism, histoplasmosis, anthrax, E coli, salmonella, and the ever popular listeria. Plus you could pick up a party of parasites and worms.
Very pastoral. Very grounding. Touch grass, acquire necrotizing fasciitis.
My big thing was cook your vegetables and limit fruit intake, especially because he prizes over ripe and high fructose fruit.
He’d basically would leave fruit out to rot, covered in fruit flies, and then he would still eat that shit. I got him to put that shit in a bowl and cover it with a towel.
He would complain though. The flies need to eat, too.
So he would throw compostable material around his yard… Which arrested pests, naturally. Then there was the rats in the walls and ceilings… But the rent was cheap!
I’m not sure what you’re asking for… Bluetooth is extremely low power. An order of magnitude from consumer WiFi. Which itself is far less than cellular signals, which are far weaker than broadcast (radio and TV.)
That’s an oversimplification of the evidence. The strongest associations in nutritional research are usually with ultra-processed foods, excess caloric intake, obesity, alcohol, smoking, low fiber intake, and poor cardiometabolic health overall, not simply “meat bad.”
There’s also an important distinction between processed meat and unprocessed meat. The evidence linking processed meats like hot dogs and deli meats to colorectal cancer is much stronger than the evidence against unprocessed meat, like steak or fish fillets.
Nutrition science also struggles with confounding variables. People who eat large amounts of vegetables often differ in many other ways too: lower smoking rates, more exercise, lower alcohol intake, higher income, better healthcare access, etc. Untangling those effects is difficult.
Even “plant-based” processed foods are not automatically healthy. Many modern substitutes are highly refined products with isolated proteins, emulsifiers, seed oils, sugars, and micronutrient fortification used to imitate the nutrient profile of animal foods. And those are the good ones! The bad ones just slap oat milk on a box put a bunch of water and sugar in it and that’s about all it is.
Matching nutrient labels is not necessarily the same thing as matching bioavailability, digestion kinetics, or long-term physiological effects.
A more scientifically defensible generalization would simply be: diets centered around minimally processed whole foods tend to correlate with better long-term health outcomes than diets dominated by ultra-processed foods, regardless of whether those foods are animal- or plant-derived.
Cat pictures sound amazing. But first I need to reverse a list in Python. Any suggestions?
My favorite asked question re this:
Can anyone here prove they’re not a stochastic parrot?
No. I just use the default. The forks are typically far behind… I tend to use the nightly builds. Cuz I like to find bugs and document them. :)
A union? Where’s the rest of them? Like, if you had a full board of white pieces and just the black king (instead of a lonely Knight?)… That’s some union action!
He seemed to like fruit the riper it got. His favorite bananas would be brown and mush (he called it ‘like candy, so good.’). I tried it. Tasted funky and fermented, like ethanol(and other fuesal alcohols). I think he might have been getting lowkey drunk/buzzed off overly ripe fermented fruit, which would definitely provoke some mad squirts.
But then again this guy didn’t believe in germ theory. I showed him microscopic media of bacteria and viruses and fungi, even white blood cells doing what they do best (seek and destroy invaders!) He claimed it was all fake news/CGI/AI… We even made kombucha (I taught him how.) Which he enjoyed… Which I guess it’s just magic to him and not basic fermentation…
Cardiometabolic function isn’t the same as metabolic syndrome. Cardiometabolic function would be like a spectrum or perhaps a map. Metabolic syndrome would be the section of spectrum(say red in the rainbow) or area on the map (like a swamp) that designates the “danger zone.”
Here the term “optimal” is used and that’s around 7 percent as having optimal cardiometabolic function. That doesn’t instantly mean 93 percent are impaired. The other classes are **intermediate, which is half of people, ** and lastly poor which was ~44 percent.

Fat can be oxidized for ATP via β-oxidation (look up FAO or catabolism, or see above links.) Fat → fatty acids → β-oxidation → acetyl-CoA + electron carriers → electron transport chain → ATP.
Example: Palmitic acid, a 16-carbon fatty acid, undergoes 7 rounds of β-oxidation producing 8 acetyl-CoA total. After everything runs through the Krebs cycle and electron transport chain, you end up with roughly 106 ATP. Which is a huge amount compared with glucose(1 glucose is about 30 ATP.)
You aren’t making much sense though. It’s like if you took endocrine physiology and smashed it into a story about a single villain.
Weight gain is typically merely about CICO, barring rare genetic disorders. With an unimpaired metabolism, if you eat excess calories you will gain weight. No hormonal imbalance necessary. This is basic energy expenditure(Calories Out) to calories consumed(Calories In, thus CICO.)
Actual metabolic syndrome afflicts 30-40 percent of Americans. Not anywhere near 96 percent. Some people are just fat and diet and exercise will absolutely work metabolically to control their weight. Some people lack of willpower. Gastric bypass again proves that with caloric reduction their metabolism, in most cases, is fully capable of sustaining weight loss.
Cancer metabolism is also flexible. It does not exclusively depend on glucose and is not “starved” by removing carbs. Fats and amino acids are fair game for many cancers. Gluconeogenesis alone creates sufficient glucose to feed cancer.
4x is quite an exaggeration…
Not much. Alan Watts had interesting talks on this. Myths are just stories. The Bible is just a collection of stories. Religion goes beyond the written stories, sure, but it’s still nothing without them (spoken and written) and everyone has their own personal mythology.
Like many self-described Christians these days think Jesus is weak/woke and what other people(definitely not themselves) really need is tough love not ‘sissy/pussy Jesus love’(choice words I’ve heard at services from the pastor at the podium, along with rantings on how lgbtq will burn in hell and the whole congregation is cheering, crying, and/or talking in tongues… It’s fucking creepy.)
This is especially common in pentecostal and Evangelical sects. Quite rare in mainstream protestantism or Catholicism (though you may get guilt-tripped. My mom said her Sunday school teachers said paying tithings was fire insurance - it keeps you from burning in hell. What a great lesson for children!) Sadly, modern Christianity practice includes things I think would absolutely appall Jesus, canonically. But that’s the great thing about religion, the scriptures are often vague and people genuinely don’t really care about what the Bible actually says unless it’s something they like (Cherry picking, selection/confirmation bias, etc.), like the beatitudes sound great but practicing them is harder than preaching.
The WHO(and basically the global consensus) minimum suggestion is 0.8 g/kg(so 96g for a 120kg male, while the statistically average 90kg male eats 96g/day instead of only 72g). They further suggest 1.2-1.6 g/kg is the optimal range for recreationally active people. This is beyond biological “requirements.” Also, 0.8 g/kg is still a conservative value that’s probably greater than most under 40s actually need, however tracer studies have suggested 0.9-1.0 g/kg on average(which considers factors beyond MPS) and even more for elderly.
Used to be able to have Bluetooth that could work past two blocks. Turns out thaf was NOT good for the body.
Class 1 Bluetooth devices can reach around 100 meters under ideal unobstructed line-of-sight.
There’s no scientific study to suggest Bluetooth radio frequencies are harmful. They’re very low power and it’s non-ionizing radiation.
Smoking(Polonium and lead, and thousands of carcinogens), UV exposure(sun), radon exposure(usually in homes), and air pollution are all significantly more dangerous than radio frequencies.
Radio frequencies can absolutely microwave (heat) you under specific circumstances. Like at AM/FM and DTV antenna power levels, sure, but only if you’re climbing one of the towers, then sure they can cook you inside-out(with many megawatts of RF energy)… But by the time it gets to even 1 km the power is so low it’s harmless(about a million times weaker than just one meter away, so 1 km away a 1 megawatt antenna would have only 1 watt of energy). Bluetooth class 1 devices top out at 100 milliwatts and consumer-grade WiFi tops out at 1 watt. It would kind of like being afraid of a full moon giving you a sunburn… It’s just not going to happen.
I don’t care. I can’t fix stupid. I can explain things. I can’t understand them for you.
People that make claims without evidence will have them dismissed for exactly that reason. If that’s putting you off, then kiss off.
