Aspartame is metabolized into methanol which breaks down intk formaldehyde which is carcinogenic. The quantities required to actually produce a significant amount compared to what our bodies produce naturally would be very high, so like you said, you would need to drink significant amounts 10s-100s of cans per day) to reach a level consistent with significantly increasing your risk of cancer.

There may be other side effects on health depending on what type of artificial sweetener you use such as triggering an insulin response without actual blood sugar increase, resulting in increased insulin tolerance, so limiting yourself is still a good idea but it is likely a better alternative to normal sugar.

90% of tax money in the past evaporated for

  1. subsidies for large corporations
  2. fixing roads for people living upstate in the middle of nowhere
  3. corrupt / shady contracts that never get fulfilled

This left us in a huge deficit with 0 public infrastructure improvements for decades.

People werent ok with it, but the billionaires running things lived upstate or in gated communities.

Plants absorb light in the red/ blue areas of the spectrum and reflect green, so likely not much self-absorbtion

One theory ("purple earth") is that simpler now extinct life used to use retinal for photosynthesis which uses the most abundant color in the suns emission spectrum, green light. This left only red and blue light which other organisms evolved to use (now plants). Retinal is fairly unstable and thus those organisms needed to use tons of energy just pumping out retinal to co tinue operating, while chlorophyll is relatively stable in comparison, so those organisms had higher net energy intake even with lower energy available in the red+blue areas of the spectrum since they expended less on just existing, and were able to grow and outcompete the purple counterparts.

For advantage, not necessarily- it could attract pests or animals that eat or damage it, resulting in it dying faster.

Besides that, NASA wasn't the one that funded the research behind the pen, they bought the completed pens. The expenses for the research were funded by Fisher

Trump gave a speech at Fort Bragg (renamed back to Bragg after a WWII paratrooper with the same last name as the original namesake, a confederate general). He complained about people flying flags for other countries. He also said that we have contempt for the flag, that anyone who burns one should go to jail for a year

Meanwhile flag code says that a flag which touches the ground should be burned and they proudly fly confederate and nazi flags

Hallmark movies have cookie cutter plots usually involving one of the characters reuniting with someone while visiting their home town and then falling in or rekindling love. The characters tend to be divorced or in an unhappy relationship, and one of the driving forces of tension is the push for them to get with each other before the visiting party has to leave

He let money and fame go to his head and lost touch with what was important; his ego is more important than doing the right thing to him. Constant inaccuracies in their videos. Original employees started jumping ship because they weren't making enough. A bunch of scandals including messing up a review and tanking a startup before auctioning off the prototype the company lent them, employee harassment/verbal abuse, etc.

Look at the NYTs coverage of the genocide in gaza ("boohoo poor israel, self defense") and general media coverage Bernie Sanders (doesnt exist until he has no chance of winning something, pretending hes more outspoken now even though he's been saying the same thing for the last 60 years)

Interesting that that guy also created a conservative community and an anti-trans community calling trans people groomers. "Hey, I'm a republican fascist, but not a nazi, so long as nazi means left wing"

Most of the discourse was about Omarchy/DHH, not just Hyprland, though that was a part of it. It is not purity testing to block people who don't work well with others or are hateful like DHH from a community. If you want to bring people who want us dead into a community then everyone else is going to leave

The main problem is

  1. Np contributed to and glazes Omarchy
  2. People wonder why DHH was sponsored with hardware
  3. Generic response about "big tent" ideology to include everyone - including racists and transphobes like DHH
  4. People are upset because they don't want to be in a Nazi Bar
  5. NP makes twitter post about how people want to ascribe values to him he doesn't hold, that he's pro immigrant and pro lgbt
  6. Np responds in forum thread that they reviewed hyprland and determined that theyd improved their moderation and were ok to sponsor (monetarily)
  7. Framework responds they'll make a blog post clarifying their sponsorships
  8. Blog post coincidentally excludes omarchy
  9. People question it and basically just get a "we will get that updated" response
  10. I still dont see it there

You cant claim to be pro immigrant and pro lgbt when you actively invite white supremacists and transphobes into the community and then try to avoid responsibility for that by not commenting or not retracting support or not clarifying how you'd avoid it going forward

The project may not be political (it is) but the people who use and support the project definitely are. If you want to kick out the community by inviting Nazis, then all that will be left once those people leave will be nazis. And if you knowingly collaborate with Nazis, you are a nazi.

Density of silver: 10.49g/mL
Density of water: 1g/mL

Total mass: 1464g
Total volume: 700mL

x = volume of silver, mL
y = volume of water, mL

10.49x + 1y = 1464
x+y = 700

9.49x=764
x=80.5058mL of silver

10.49x = 
10.49 × 80.5058 =

844.51g of silver

Probably an over estimate [of just the silver] due to the copper so probably more like 835-840g. [If just evaporating, the mass would be higher due to the lower density of the impurities like copper sulfate, so more around 845-850g. E.g. 5mL of copper sulfate would be 830g of silver and 18g copper sulfate = 848g]
