    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Protein interactions occur so fast that it's probably a long time before they leave the field of theoretical and enter the field of observational. That said, our basis for the theoretical keeps getting better and better. To give an example, here is an electron microscope image of the spike...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Science reporting is garbage on a whole, which is why I typically read the underlying paper and skip the article. No idea what the article claimed it could do, but the science in the paper is good and reasonable. It's a step of progress, which is essentially what most good science is.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Did you read the paper? It's an improvement on visible spectrum microscopes, by condensing light into highly precise pulses to minimize damage to the target objects, though it still destroyed/damaged their targets. It's an interesting technology, but it's vastly inferior to electron microscopes...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Ehh, stick is for amateurs, because the tell is super obvious. One of the first things my 'friend' did was write some code that approximated for where a bot wanted to look and be, and then added a suitably human randomness on how close and fast it would look that way and get there. Close enough...

    Bro, they have vibrating camera ear cleaners so the CCP can watch you clean your ears. I can tell you haven't ever been to the ear cleaning section of a korean supermarket. https://www.amazon.com/Clearoo-Removal-Endoscope-Wireless-Otoscope/dp/B083QLRKRD/

    Tupperware

    I keep both good and bad tupperware. There are reasons to use both, but the cheap stuff can mostly be explained with the word "relatives". I have low expectations of the cheap stuff. It can break and wear down. I think "It will close" is about the only real expectation I have. That's a pretty...

    Tupperware

    I've never felt the need to talk about reusable containers in my life before today. I bought these ziploc containers, and they are utter trash. They refuse to close most of the time, and are extremely prone to the lids just popping right off randomly even if they do seem to close. Do not buy...

    At the moment of truth I did what any reasonable american would do when deciding on which to get, I bought them all. The spicy was definitely the winner. It wasn't super spicey, but flavor was excellent. All the other chicken ones honestly tasted pretty similar to each other, but they were good...

    Ask dentists to price stuff based on your health insurance too. I work with people that pay 1-2000$ for a crown and insurance covers 50% Meanwhile my health insurance covers 0$ and has a contract rate of 500$.

    Costa rica is about 100% humidity 99% of the year and full of hippies who have been sweating way more than normal. And bot flies are common. It's literally a nightmare land to me. I'd rather live in el salvador, and about the nicest thing I can say about el salvador is its not costa rica.

    Watching a video it comes across way different than the headline. They were mostly talking about the backroom dealing and order flow shenanigans that shake faith that retail investors have, and if there was a better way to regulate those shenanigans, which is actually probably a win for the...

    Thanks to whoever recommended jet's pizza. Smashed me an all meaty detroit style. Only complaint was that the sauce wasn't on top, but with the engineering of dumping two marinara cups on top of it I came to a satisfying compromise. Their marinara cups are surprisingly big as well, two was...

    I think more than any other time in history, this inflation will be mostly because of supply shocks. There's a lot of money moving around right now, and the demand for lots of things is incredibly high. Because of that, I feel like the outlook for people trying to make money is good. I'm not...

    Pretty much everyone expected last year's policy to lead to inflation. I think the biggest factor you missed considering is that the government has a very strong incentive to allow inflation for many reasons, but also to pretend it isn't happening in COLA calculations. The amount of money...

    Obviously they got hazed before, but do we have any source on this? From what I can see from their reports they are divested of any GME ownership. Just want to know if I'm missing something or this is just more hyping things up so reddit bag-holders can try to recover to their 450 buy-ins.

    Got me a bag of these. Make sure to shake it up, because they naturally self discriminate. All the peanut ones were on top, the peanut butter ones in the middle, and the milk chocolate at the bottom. I thought I was scammed when they were mostly peanut ones until I figured out what was going on.

    As someone who brought a person that'd never played EQ before into a TLP, the most frustrating thing is watching them stand and take damage, when to this day my instinct even in other MMOs is to run for my life.

    Every now and then I love a good quesadilla, and chipotle used to be the place to go. Then they actually added quesadilla to their menu and ruined everything. Dillas is definitely a niche restaurant, but if you are craving that niche it's a mega win.

    Grabbed me a Spicy CH'King sandwich for first lunch. It's clearly not as good as popeyes or chik-fil-a, but it's not a complete failure like the McD horror. The biggest pro is that the chicken piece is very generous, and that was the thing that kept it in the win column. The breading wasn't as...

    It does little to explain how they got the private key. Did the hacking group go full tard and leave it available on a server for the FBI to raid and discover the key? I was leaning that way, but I don't see any mention of a server or any material object seized that would contain the key, and if...

    Real governments don’t want btc, they want something they control, and on top of that a large portion of people using btc are bad guys that do want to get away with things.
