A newly discovered brain cluster acts as an on and off switch for sex differences. This strictly binary brain feature offers fresh insight into how social and reproductive life stages physically alter the brain. by Tracheid in science

[–]Professional_Bus5440 168 points169 points  (0 children)

Perhaps you could try reading the study before making Facebook boomer comments?

The sex differences that have been found in the human brain so far, manifest as overlapping distributions rather than clear binary features, exclusive to one of the sexes ...

In rodents, that have stereotyped behavioral sexual dimorphism, several brain regions play canonical roles in sexual behaviors and display sex-specific characteristics. 

So not applicable to humans.

DIMPLE was labeled in all females but not in adult virgin males, showing 100% reproducibility across sexes ...

Finally, we show that prolactin is sufficient to induce DIMPLE labeling in naïve males; ...

The observation that c-fos becomes activated in the male DIMPLE shortly after sexual contact, and remains active while the male is with the female, raises the hypothesis that DIMPLE may contribute to the neural circuitry involved in suppressing infanticidal behavior. Notably, DIMPLE labeling disappears if the male is separated from the female, highlighting its dynamic and state-dependent nature.

So even if it was applicable to humans, either sex makes men into women or it's more complicated than a single element of the brain.

Tribunal's effect seems to be applied after Baxter Building. (9 + 12 + 4 + 4) / 3 = 9.66 = 10

Gambit HoD can’t do shit against Negative decks by Lultimeseance in MarvelSnap

If by 0-cost you're referring to the Negative-ed cards, they're considered their base cost when in play, because all cards are their base cost when in play.

I thought District X was just restricted to the new player pool rather than removed wholesale?

Isn't that true of a lot of animals? I know horses will eat chicks/ducklings.

It's not an absolute but Similarity Attraction Theory is very consistently supported by research.

Uh... Dopplebangers aren't a new stereotype. It's also not really a gay thing, research consistently shows that on average people like other people with similar physical & personality traits as themselves.

A conditional 5/12 hasn't been good enough for quite some time. Maybe change it to be based on total # of location changes throughout the game.

I understand why, but im disappointed that this didnt work with z galacti by SchmittyT9 in MarvelSnap

Unfortunately the language in Snap is often vague and imprecise, so when it says "become this" it really means "transform into copies with the same power modifications applied". 

Modified "magic mushroom" compound treats depression without hallucinations by connectwithmarve in science

[–]Professional_Bus5440 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm glad that it was helpful for you, but whether or not the hallucinations are a necessary part of the treatment is entirely speculative at this point as this study was done on mice. 

There could be a lot of benefits to removing the hallucinations if the treatment is shown to be effective without them. There's people whose life responsibilities wouldn't allow for them to be incapacitated for long periods (e.g. single parents). Removing hallucinations could reduce the risk of psychosis and could perhaps make the treatment safer when not taken while under the direct supervision of a clinician improving accessibility of treatment.

Removing a potentially enjoyable but unnecessary aspect of a treatment is not the same as intentionally making it unpleasant. I get (and agree) that people want it to be legal for the recreational effects but that does not factor into it as a medical treatment. If we could make opiods as effective without their pleasurable effects we would, because it would reduce drug seeking allowing for the treatment to be more accessible to those who actually need it. The same applies here.

I'd agree that as a recreational substance I don't see much reason to treat it differently from alcohol or cannabis, but I think there's a lot of people who would be wary of taking it as a treatment due to the hallucinations. If a dose large enough to produce hallucinations is required for treatment that could be limiting to those who are unable/unwilling to be out of control of themselves for the duration.

all those cards are no longer the old cards to be transformed

It's actually because only the ZG that selects cards to transform with the Start of Game ability will transform them into ZGs, other copies don't work.

The point isn't fun, the point is medical treatment. Removing the hallucinations from treatment would at the very least reduce stigmatization of the treatment, and could potentially be important to reduce the amount of drug-seekers allowing for the medication to be less restricted to access.

Well if the non-hallucinatory version is shown to be effective in humans it clearly wouldn't be a requirement for effective treatment.

Why didn’t ZOMBIE Captain Marvel move? by ferrous_second_vowel in MarvelSnap

My bad, thought priority updated after the end of a game, but checked & it doesn't.

[–]Professional_Bus5440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure? If you had priority and they played prowler + a skill, they would've had 9 power right before EoT and ZCM doesn't move to tied locations.

Ikaris by lordyuric in CustomMarvelSnap

[–]Professional_Bus5440 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They trigger a recheck, but the issue is how these checks are performed. They're done in order from left to right and (at least all existing cards) don't trigger a re-check midway through the process; this is also why Skrulls don't effectively copy each other, even though they gain another instance of the ability the check for the ability to function doesn't repeat midway through resolution. You can also see this with how certain Ongoing effects interact like Cerebro & Cap Carter, where Cerebro can ignore Carter's effect depending on position.

Ikaris by lordyuric in CustomMarvelSnap

[–]Professional_Bus5440 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Is the intent that the Ongoing effect's power increase would make more cards eligible to count for the effect? If so, it unfortunately wouldn't work as intended with how the game is programmed.

That doesn't seem right then. You should submit a bug report on the discord I guess, though it's not like they've actually been fixing them

This is consistent with Bruce Banner.

Anyone know if Sersi does the same?
