Checking Wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_meat ) , seems like the usual practice is slaughter and export.

Yeah. And even if “has 50-100% greater absorption of medium and high sound frequencies than other fabrics with similar quality and weight.” means the things really are 50% more efficient on an erg per kilogram basis, that’s not an especially useful specification. We’re not firing the damn things into space. We don’t…

The map of favorite Thanksgiving sides, provided by Zippia, is surprisingly varied.

The decision to retain so many horses has to do with the animals’ perceived heritage value, which stems from “pioneering history and pastoralism,” “traditional mountain practices associated with stock management,” “brumby running and horse trapping,” and also “legends, stories and myths of the Snowy Mountains,”…

No. That paper discusses a much trickier problem: auto-detecting polymorphic malicious code. (Where “polymorphic” is understood to mean “Rewrites itself to keep the same functionality while changing its checksum and avoiding containing fixed strings a simple virus detector can search for.”) It talks about a way to…

I think this is an outlandish theory. However, it explains a whoooole lot of nagging questions--so maybe people who’ve played the game should check their computers for syphilis.

There are times when you should just give up and quote the abstract directly.

Emphasizing how the dirty toll of Chinese steel allows the Biden administration to talk up its climate bona fides, and give a shout out to American-made products. In essence, Biden gets to have his climate and labor cake and eat it, too.

Elle (Jessica Henwick) remembers her home being on a sunny street surrounded by trees, which doesn’t make any sense in the dystopia of Blade Runner’s perpetually gloomy Los Angeles.

REAL MEN TAKE THE SQUARE WAVE

Eh, she was the not-technically-a-wife-chief-concubine of the head of one of the great houses—someone important enough to own nuclear weapons and get handed the franchise to manage Arrakis. These are wealthy people; they’re going to be customers for spice, even if they’re not doing so much of it for their eyeballs to…

That “The Spice” thing that everyone who’s read Dune keeps going on about? One of the reasons it’s as valuable in the fictional universe as it is is it extends lifespan, up to a factor of about three. Thus, you could argue from canon for the woman playing Jessica to be eight years older then the guy playing…

Sugar’s LD50 (median lethal dose)

Nonsense.  According to my calculations, I’ve already eaten 261 pieces of fun-sized candy over the last fifty years, and nothing’s going to happen as I finish this o

SLS is a double whammy—it suppresses the sweet receptors, which I knew about, but also wipes out phospholipids in the saliva, effectively powering up the bitterness receptors, which I didn’t know about. (The American Chemical Society has a blurb around a two minute video here: https://www.acs.org/content/acs/en/pressro…

Check the news. We haven’t even managed to get all the way out of the 1930s.

Last edited time, I expect. Note that the stock image yacht has been replaced with one of 3deluxe’s renders.

Varies from family to family. One approach is to get groomed and dressed before breakfast. I believe—but I do not have a citation for it—that this was also somewhat normalized by television in the 1950s. A morning breakfast scene would feature people already dressed to the nines without a hair out of place, who then…

“It does not include sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) as an ingredient, a cleaning agent prevalent in toothpaste that contributes to the bitter aftertaste from brushing your teeth with toothpaste and then drinking OJ.”
