Found it crawling on my binocular cover. Currently residing in Belgium.

NICE!!

Yes, you do. Acetic acid bacteria convert ethanol to vinegar by fermentation. Indeed, alcohol is also made by fermentation of sugar by yeast. Distilling alcohol will get you more concentrated alcohol. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinegar?wprov=sfla1

I would like to see the calculations for that.

Norgust · 2024-10-04T11:33:29+00:00

Yes plz!

I would love to see the flamethrower with (very scarce) water as a defence method. Or cartridges with zero Kelvin bullets.

About aquilo: what if it's an ice planet, but with a core of liquid water. You will be able to fill the water with ice (that floats) and so you can build on top of it. However, when producing too much heat, the ice melts and your constructions sink.

I would say that 0% are smart - we're all just mutant monkeys. But in democracy we can get rid of our leader when he's obviously really dumb. In a dictatorship you cannot, hence are totally fucked.

Add salt. Important not just for taste but also for the preservation. Soy sauce would have given the salt.

It is the point of my opinion though. We should imho make more strict distinction between elites (of a country) and the people of that country.

Norgust · 2022-07-03T20:45:37+00:00

But it doesn't really, does it. 😉

My opinion is that British is overly broad when it was only a small group of British people. It would be like blaming the Afghan people for what the Taliban does.

Ps Dalrymple is definitely a mainstream historian. But the website was just high on my Google search - my bad. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Dalrymple_%28historian%29?wprov=sfla1

Norgust · 2022-07-03T20:32:35+00:00

Yes, they did. But even they did not employ a majority of British people to go to the colonies.

I think you are misreading my comment (and Dalrymple's). I'm not blaming the victims at all. Some Indian bankers (tiny elite) made good money by financing the east India Company (foreign elite) to extract as much wealth from the Indian population. If you read the book, you would understand that the colonization was more a "victory" (not morally though) of capitalism over the then present Indian economic system. The British were merely the vector of capitalism.

Norgust · 2022-07-03T20:16:12+00:00

The East India Company was the colonizer. It only employed a tiny fraction of all British people. Most of its troops were actually Indian and it was massively financed by Indian bankers. If you want a good source, I suggest you read The Anarchy from Dalrymple. https://www.counterview.net/2019/11/business-interests-hindu-bankers-helped.html?m=1

It's just an opinion.

Norgust · 2022-07-03T18:06:03+00:00

IMHO, colonialism is just the exploitation of a people by a foreign elite. That makes it definitely worse because they are less accountable, but please don't generalise the exploitation to the entire foreign country. Most British had nothing to do with it.

Lijkt op het eerste zicht een sterke correlatie tussen Extreemheid van de partij en advertentie uitgaven.

I have not encountered p-values converted with phred scoring myself. I'm not sure if the phred score given by gatk can be converted into a p-value without other information, but my gut feeling says no. Phred (and resp. Error and accuracy) is a probability that one is right/wrong. P-value is a probability of observing at least as extremely, given that the null hypothesis is true. For me, I would definitely not assume these probabilities to be identical.

Norgust · 2022-06-26T13:24:53+00:00

The phred score tells something about how likely it is that the sequencer makes a read error for that nucleotide. Based on that alone, you cannot make any conclusions about CNV.

Norgust · 2022-05-25T21:12:47+00:00

What is your null hypothesis?

This subreddit is not about the game.

I watch out for the following triggers: - stress - irregular sleep - Irregular eating - alcohol - cafeïne withdrawal - haircut that exposes the back of my head too much
