why is my whisky evaporating?
  • The damage being done by alcohol accumulates, sure. But if you stop drinking, the damage is done. You're not going to see more damage occur once it is out of your body. The poison doesn't accumulate over time.

    With lead exposure, the poison is the thing accumulating in the body. If you stopped your exposure to lead, it's still in the body, doing damage over time.

  • Increased risk of stroke is one i've heard of. seeing as they make it into blood, milk, organs.

    We're going to have serious problems with different vessels and ducts getting clogged. It's going to be all completely new too.

  • flouride
  • 0.08mg per half cup serving, but may vary depending on water used. https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Fluoride-HealthProfessional/

    10mg is the accepted daily upper limit for an adult. So 62.5 cups of oatmeal to reach that max safe limit. https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/Fluoride-Consumer/

    Acute poisoning symptoms may appear as low as 10-15 mg/kg, lethal dose might be 32-64 mg/kg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoride_toxicity

    So 200 to 400 cups of oatmeal per kg you weigh for a lethal dose. (32/0.08/2=200, 64/0.08/2=400)

  • People born after 2000 have never seen the cosmic microwave background on their TV set.
  • "Thermal Noise" is a phenomenon where everything makes EM noise, just from thermal energy.

    If you were to put such a TV in a faraday cage, with an RF termination, you would see something similar. Because noise is inherently part of the circuitry and amplifiers.

  • Dear Americans, be prepare to get screwed!
  • FYI: companies will do 2 things to make black friday kinda suck these days

    1. Prices will go up before black friday so they can have an exagerated sale/discount.

    2. Some companies will make units specifically for black friday. Usually cheaper, less features, and sometimes less reliable.

    Figure out what you want now.

  • I hate my job...

    My job is so fucking unbelievable.

    I'll try to sum it up by first telling you about the folks I work with:

    First, there is this supermodel wanna-be chick. Yeah, okay, she is pretty hot, but damn is she completely useless. The girl is constantly fixing her hair or putting on makeup. She is extremely self-centered and has never once considered the needs or wants of anyone but herself. She is as dumb as a box of rocks, and I still find it surprising that she has enough brain power to continue to breathe.

    The next chick is completely the opposite. She might even be one of the smartest people on the planet. Her career opportunities are endless, and yet she is here with us. She is a zero on a scale of 1 to 10. I'm not sure she even showers, much less shaves her "womanly" parts. I think she might be a lesbian, because every time we drive by the hardware store, she moans like a cat in heat.

    But the jewel of the crowd has got to be the fucking stoner. And this guy is more than just your average pothead. In fact, he is baked before he comes to work, during work, and I'm sure after work. He probably hasn't been sober anytime in the last ten years, and he's only 22. He dresses like a beatnik throwback from the 1960's, and to make things worse, he brings his big fucking dog to work. Every fucking day I have to look at this huge Great Dane walk around half-stoned from the second-hand smoke. Hell, sometimes I even think it's trying to talk with its constant bellowing. Also, both of them are constantly hungry, requiring multiple stops to McDonalds and Burger King, every single fucking day.

    Anyway, I drive these fucktards around in my van and we solve mysteries and shit.
