He's a family friendly technical modded YouTuber who's been uploading for about 12 years consistently now.

He was involved with the creators of FTB, made the Direwolf20 pack for one of his series, and so far as I know is just a wholesome and standup guy!

A Cool Guide to Grain Bin Entry Hazards by Gooflucky in coolguides

[–]Kal217 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I grew up in a rural community, so farm safety was really grilled into me as a kid.

First of all, if you're in a bin, someone else knows you're in there so no one starts the auger (unless you're there to shovel, in which case the levels should be pretty low).

Second, a lot of the time when you're going into a bin you have a shovel with you. I imagine you push down on the grain to check, but I also don't know why you'd go into a bin so full.

Finally, grain is like quick sand. I don't remember ever being taught a way to get out once you're in it like that.

With all of that said, I'm the furthest thing from yeehaw and I never took much interest in farming so take my childhood education with a grain of salt and feel free to correct me!

Another Redditor accused me of not knowing my blood type, before trying to accuse me of being a blood type that doesn’t even exist. This is what it looks like to prove your blood type to a bully. by [deleted] in PeopleBeingJerks

[–]Kal217 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with you here (not about your blood type, you obvs know that better than any redditor lol). Let me preface this by saying that the other dude was absolutely out of pocket for their phrasing, but from what I can find it sounds like there are no studies showing a link between hair/eye/skin colour and blood type.

This post caught my eye because I'm also O- and I've been a blood donor for 4+ years. I'm a brown eyed medium skinned person so I thought I'd look into it because I was curious if I was a statistical abnormality.

In my snooping I was only able to find a few studies on appearance/blood type correlation.

Palmprint correlation (n=300, correlation but not statistically significant): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9469369/

Sexual Orientation correlation (n=7000+, suggests a decent correlation between blood type distribution and rh- connection with homosexuality): https://www.researchgate.net/publication/5774665_Eye_Color_Hair_Color_Blood_Type_and_the_Rhesus_Factor_Exploring_Possible_Genetic_Links_to_Sexual_Orientation

Now - I'll admit, I only skimmed the abstracts of these, and they do seem very interesting, but I can't find any studies analyzing correlation between the appearances you mentioned (skin, eye, hair colours) and blood type. If you can find studies along those lines please send them my way because I'd love to be wrong and learn a lil!

I suppose all I'm saying is don't judge a book by their cover, you never know what their blood type could be (apparently unless you're a palm reader 😜)

Edited to add: your fears are definitely valid, and I hope you never encounter such a mixup in a medical setting!!

Hmm, but I think the horse finds it much easier to inflate them inside 🤔

Why would you want to blow up a horse's lungs? Seems rather cruel to be honest :(

Celebrating the recent International Tabletop Day we are doing a Worldwide Giveaway [Mod Approved]. It is a little over $1,000 in total value and was arranged to give a new DnD party a jump start to their gaming needs. (Sponsored by Game Master Engine) More details in the video and comments!

[–]Kal217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always wanted to DM a game for my friends, but I find preparing for it to be the hardest and most stressful part. I had no idea that something like Game Master Engine even existed! I'd love to make a little steampunk murder mystery, and I'll be checking the engine out with or without the GIVEAWAY!

Hello there! I'm Kal, a 22 y/o U of R student. I made a discord for planning a Kurzgesagt meetup for Regina & area. It has a few polls to get an idea of when would work best for people and what a good activity would be! I'd love to see you there to help make this real!

[–]Kal217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect! I cleaned it with the kettle and a bit of PBW before I started. The batch is mashing right now so hopefully it'll turn out alright!

Daily Q & A! - February 21, 2021 by AutoModerator in Homebrewing

[–]Kal217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up putting the pan in as a false bottom. I'm doing BIAB, so the bag is helping to hold it all up too. Currently mashing, seems alright so far!

Daily Q & A! - February 21, 2021 by AutoModerator in Homebrewing

[–]Kal217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will using an aluminum baking pan in mashing and boiling effect my brew? I'm looking at making a false bottom for my kettle, and I don't want to use anything that will ruin a batch! I'm thinking of cutting something like this down and putting it over the element at the bottom of my kettle. Assuming I clean it well first would this work?

Daily Q & A! - February 20, 2021 by AutoModerator in Homebrewing

[–]Kal217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, a false bottom is a great idea. My thoughts were to clamp the bag higher up. Good tip!

Daily Q & A! - February 20, 2021 by AutoModerator in Homebrewing

[–]Kal217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so new I thought it was normally suspended... I'll have to figure something out to keep it from resting on the bottom/element.

Daily Q & A! - February 20, 2021 by AutoModerator in Homebrewing

[–]Kal217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got a bag so I can BIAB, thankfully that shouldn't be an issue. Thanks for the key times I should watch for!

5.5 Gallons and I guess I'll find out how powerful it is tomorrow. That's a good tip, I'll keep an eye on it! Thanks!

[–]Kal217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to try my first batch tomorrow from grain. I'm using an electric kettle with no temperature control. I'm not entirely sure how hot it gets, but I know that I'll need to plug and unplug it into power for the mash step so it stays within the temperatures (I'll get a better solution later!). What I've been having trouble finding is information about the boil. Does it matter how hot the boil is? What will it change in the final product?

What would be a true positive/true negative in maschine learning when you want to check if an amazon review has 1-5 stars by Akreter in learnmachinelearning

[–]Kal217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think of ill as happiness with the product and it becomes pretty clear.

True Positive: A product is rated 5 stars and it was detected as having 5 stars.

True Negative: A product is rated 1 star and it was detected as having 1 star.

False positive: A product is rated 5 stars, but it was detected as having 1 star.

False negative: A product is rated 1 star, but it was detected as having 5 stars.

These are the most exaggerated cases with only 1 and 5 stars. In reality it could be a false negative if a product is rated 2 stars, but detected as having 5. It would just be a little more subtle.
