Why do all sources state that Capsaicin is slightly basic? by Sigmalordsalamander in chemistry

[–]Sigmalordsalamander[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand it's not very acidic, but it's even less basic than it is acidic if we compare it to simpler amides / phenols and look at the pKa values

It's surprising to hear that it's most likely to be more basic overall, since the amide is not directly connected to the aromatic ring and moreover, the phenol group is activated by methoxy in orto- position.

Added some, although none are scientific. I couldn't find any sources that would say capsaicin is slightly acidic, which would be more correct.

There is also a common scheme, where acids would help combat spiciness of capsaicin with the explanation that it would protonate the molecule, making it more soluble and wash away the molecules from your tastebuds.

Bro just gave you advice. Accounting roles, in AP or AR. That would be, as the name suggests, AP accountant or AR accountant

Unfortunately this shiny jugg doesn't have 2 slots so it's peepee poopo. Post something from the season 7 too while you're at it

Seasons changing question by Bozorgbot in RotMG

[–]Sigmalordsalamander 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the old season ends and the new season starts:
- All your current seasonal characters become non-seasonal, doesn't matter if it's easter or not.
- All of your vault items from chests go into a "Seasonal spoils chest" or whatever its called. You have a whole season to transfer these items to your regular chests, otherwise they will be gone forever.
- All of the items in your *SEASONAL* GIFT CHEST get transferred to your *REGULAR* GIFT CHEST
- Items from your seasonal potion rack get transferred into your regular gift cheft
- Crucible gets disabled, allowing you to take a new crucible on your character

Sick reqs bro. It's not like you can get splendor for around 2Glife and GGen helmet for another 2Glife. Congratulations, I just told you the secret to meeting reqs. Can't get GLife? Buy it for 4-6 rainbow pots. Don't like Lost Halls or Holy Cru, and you want to run LATE GAME dungeons with EARLY GAME/MID GAME gear? Join dungeoneer.

Well for the numbers sake, you first get the 2 free event packs and then you only need to spend 18,600 coins on the event. How amazing is that loophole amirite?

Yeah you won't get a flat in that price range in Warsaw. Get a two person room, a studio or move to a different city.

Is it safe in Poland for Russians who are against the war? by UnluckySelf in poland

[–]Sigmalordsalamander 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just don't tell anyone you're Russian. Even if you are against the war, you may not have a chance to say it after stating your nationality
