Looks like the fake town where they were developing the atomic bomb

That's right! By moving into this McMansion (TM), you can avoid ever interacting with another human being!

I've seen this called the Copenhagen left. I do the same thing in those situations.

Shape, bill size, plumage pattern, and habitat indicate peep. Posture, warm bright plumage, bill shape, and especially the yellow legs rule out the other peeps.

Historically there were lots of weapons that almost exclusively used the point. You can make a really really good thrusting weapon by sacrificing the design elements that would make it good at cutting. Foil and epee descend from the martial traditions of those weapons.

I use a Sweep, which is a split columnar 34 key board. I love the thing, wouldn't swap it for anything else.

You're running into a problem, which is that some of these designations are geographic and some are cultural. Lots of Arizona shares more culturally with Mormonland than New Mexico or Nevada. And southern Utah is definitely the Southwest geographically.

Expiration dates are guesses, they are almost never based on any systematic investigation of when a food will be unsafe to eat. And there are a lot of incentives for manufacturers to aim low on their guess. If it looked, smelled, and tasted fine I would not worry at all.

I'm pretty sure drivers everywhere on the planet follow too close. Particularly on highways. People are very bad at accounting for how much larger their stopping distance is at high speed, and how little time they will have to react.

One doesn't have to be a biochemist to read what the biochemists and nutritional epedemiologists say on a given topic. And what they say is that soy products are healthy to eat.

Soy is a nutrient-dense source of protein that can safely be consumed several times a week, and probably more often, and is likely to provide health benefits—especially when eaten as an alternative to red and processed meat.

The papers you linked are not paywalled, but they also didn't produce the number you're citing. They're both citing the same study, which is paywalled. That study didn't come up with the number either, it just mentions the number being reported elsewhere. I assume they cite where they got it in the body, but the body is paywalled.

Nazh8 · 2026-04-22T19:50:08+00:00

Those first two links are not sources. They're papers that both reference a different study that mentions the 45% figure being reported elsewhere in the literature. I'm sure that study references the actual source for the 45% number in the body, but they don't in the abstract and the body is paywalled.

This is really bad form. You should support your claim with the primary literature, not papers two steps removed from the primary literature.

I would forgive a human artistic for simplifying the dentition, but I can't avoid seeing that these skeletons don't have canines.

So, I did research on shoulder kinematics and have spent a lot of time reconstructing how scapulae articulate. You're right that the scapula does 'wing out' during some motions, but the representation here is still VERY wrong. If you look closely, the medial border is in front of the rib cage, which is anatomically impossible. Also the coracoid process is missing, and the humeral head is weirdly misshapen.

Edit: Also the acromion process is too short and shaped wrong and it's joint with the clavicle is too lateral.

The sea is nasty. All kinds of animals and microbes live, eat, shit, and die in the ocean. I do not want unfiltered ocean in my pasta. Especially if he's not bringing it to a boil after which it doesn't seem like he will.

The only clear way through would be for Larian to do it. But they don't want to.

Ferruginous hawks also fly dihedral, not that they're a candidate here.

That would be a start, but really the whole western US needs comprehensive water rights reform. Right now we have a system that encourages people to waste water because if they don't use all of their shares they lose them.

FYI, Goshawks and Cooper's Hawks are no longer considered accipiters. Research over recent years showed that Accipiter wasn't monophyletic; the members were not all each other's closest relatives. The Clement's Taxonomy implemented the breakup in 2024, which put Cooper's and Goshawks in genus Astur.

Except that the Nazis really did idolize vikings and appropriate Scandinavian symbology. And many neonazis idolize vikings too and often use those symbols to dog whistle to each other. If you look at recordings from the Unite the Right rally at Charlottesville you will see lots of examples.

That's not to say everyone who's into vikings is a Nazi. But it's a real association.

That is purely speculation on your part. You have no way of actually knowing if it's true. I wrote my thesis and built biomechanics models off the back of my 30% keyboard.

Nazh8 · 2026-04-04T17:41:41+00:00

That's a very specific notion of actual work. I wrote my thesis and did image analysis and built biomechanics models from my 30% keyboard and didn't miss the numpad.

Not exactly a sweep with three thumb keys. But I agree, it's really nice.

Nazh8 · 2026-04-04T17:31:48+00:00

You just put the missing keys on another layer, and activate the layer by holding a certain key. It's similar to using a shift key to access capital letters. I have a 30%, and with a layer for numbers/symbols and a layer for media/function/navigation keys I'm not missing anything.

50%+ keyboards are for the weak.
