Uranium 🟩

I get what you’re trying to say, but that still isn’t exactly accurate.

If you measure the herb before and after, it’ll give you the total of evaporated difference, but this difference will not reflect the actual THC/CBD consumed, you’ve got terpenes and other volatile compound in there as well, adding weight.

Nor does it account for losses due to condensation on the inside of the vape.

If you know how much it your herb is THC/CBD, then you estimate with a reasonable degree of accuracy.

Also now that I’ve written this out, I realise how “Well actually…” this is; my bad.

Love the username btw, what vape do you use if you don’t mind my asking?

Poland always getting done dirty

Silly one, and but do tanks run on diesel?

Every other heavy machine I can think of typically uses diesel for their engines: tractors, lorries, boats.

Also diesel is less flammable then petrol or hydrogen in the event of a spill of leak…

Gotta ask have you been in school in the past 20 years?

I’m not sure if any state school has lessons divided by gender aside from P.E. and possibly some Sex Ed lessons…

Gender division in schooling was certainly a thing in the 70’s and probably the 80’s.

Admittedly, I don’t take the train or bus anywhere near as much as I used to, but when I did there were always poster adverts about being respectful towards other riders and staff. Have those gone away, or is it that there is another influence supplanting that messaging?

Perhaps phones being much more engaging that people actually spend a lot less time reading the PSAs and adverts around them?

In a weirdly similar way, I remember pre COVID there used to be so many more drivers that would be blasting music with their windows down that it rarely deserved a second thought. It’s much more rare to hear it nowadays, to the extent that when I do, it seems so much more obnoxious.

Also the opposite side to it don’t keep hammering into somebody once they’ve admitted fault and are trying to rectify their mistakes (within reason).

People will be a lot more likely to be confident in admitting a mistake and being honest about it if it isn’t blown out of proportion.

I’ve tried watching it about 5 times and get to different points before I burn out.

It has sparked an interest in the works of R.D. Laing for who Lain is named in reference to.

A Psychologist who was active in the 60’s and is famous for their work with schizophrenics; I’ve been curious if their work may give a bit more context to understand Serial Experiments Lain

My mum’s a child psychotherapist, from her perspective medication aught not to be the first thing people jump at, but it very much has it’s place; an example being children with ADHD who literally cannot sit down to the point of them getting distressed, actually being able to sit down and engage with therapy after starting medication. Similar things with anxiety and depression, if anxiety holds you back from opening up and personal thoughts and feelings then medication can enable that for therapeutic work to begin.

The bigger issue she has is when people (often parents) only want the medication but don’t want to try and engage with the therapy.

Just something to think about

Communism is from each according to their ability, to each according to their want.

I thought it was “From each according to their ability, to each according to their need”?

Wants and needs are often conflated but the outcomes of each phase would likely look incredibly different.

Yeah, you say twot to an English person and they’ll look at you like you’ve sprouted a third head.

The correct way to pronounce it is twat:

The twat in a hat came at me with a bat.

As opposed to:

The THOT whose a bot sent me her twot.

Huh, same here, that’s odd

What type of tub is it? Free standing or one with a panel on the side?

If one with a panel on the side you can remove them by cutting the silicone, which will enable you to see the drain pipe and the trap, and you can then inspect it for leaks (use a dry piece of paper towel to test if a leak continues after drying it initially)

If it’s due to a leak from the water supply pipes you could try turning off your water at the source/stop tap, open up your all the taps in the house and drain your system (I wouldn’t suggest doing this if you have a water storage tank). If the dripping stops after doing this, it’s likely to be your water supply pipes, as opposed to the drain.

I’m honestly surprised no-one has built an extension to automatically opt out of them, or at least the major cookie providers interfaces.

I realise there are many extensions which outright block cookies, etc; I’m meaning specifically the annoying dialogues you describe

Wow, 3DS as well…

Wait, PSP‽

My brother in Christ, how much do you know about housing? Renovations? Insulation? Mycology?

The standard that likely had not been followed was ensuring that the property was watertight to begin with.

The dry rot that is spreading through their house is effectively going to condemn it.

Your take of “hurdur, how hard could it be to do some insulation? you glue on the boards, mesh and render” is asinine at best.

Lots of these companies didn’t do their due diligence to ensure the suitability of the properties before installing.

Which then disproportionately effects people who are less likely to be able to afford repairs due to them already being on very limited lower incomes, the exact reason why they are getting this work done via these schemes.

I took wouldn’t want to trust the same company that put me into that position to be the one to rectify it.

Are you meaning because people are excited about “fusion” being a possible future energy source, whereas when they here “nuclear” their minds immediately go to weapons and fission accidents and pollution?

My friend has so far fried 4 or 5 steamdecks, ROG Ally and two power banks before he took my advice to buy a type c cable tester and to stop using any charger that didn’t come with the device until he could test them.

Turned out it was a damaged cable, I think it was a CC line was no longer working.

I’ve had a couple of cheaper Chinese type c and usb A multi port chargers fail; I manage to fry like 3 sex toys before I realised the type A ports were outputting 12v, and at some point something went wrong and the type c fried my phone (which I guess is on me for continuing to use the charger after the issue with the type A ports)

Oh wow, you must learn manual, that’s ridiculous! Where in the world is that?

I’ve not started yet, but I’m going to learn automatic when I go to learn, my GF has been learning manual for over 2 years because her dad and our friend who drives said that it makes the most sense to, when in reality that’s just because of what they were told based on outdated advice.

She even has an automatic waiting for her once she finally passes, but she’s stubborn and doesn’t want to switch to learning automatic, it’s really frustrating how stubborn she is about not giving up or approaching it from another direction.

She has dyslexia and the British Dyslexic Association even recommends that dyslexics learn automatic as it’s a known thing they struggle with. She even had to write L and R on her hands, bless her.

I’ve heard some people benefit from intensive driving courses, where you do like 2 solid weeks of lessons then take the test, but no clue if they have those in your country

I’ve suggested to her, if she really wants a manual licence then get the automatic licence, then decide if she really wants the manual, as she’ll be more comfortable with roads and driving and can just focus on the manual aspect

You aren’t wrong, but as someone who managed to screw up and damaged the copper traces when trying to resolder an old mini-usb back onto my old keyboard; you do really need to have a good understanding and a lot of practice with SMDs and temperature control.

I went from a less than 50% success ratio when resoldering SMD LEDs to about 95% success after I bought a £20 mini-heatgun with a narrow (5mm) nozzle
