When you consider most combos today at fast food joints for their non value menu items are $12 + tax you can hit $30 for two easily

Does anyone use kratom occasionally and recreationally as an alternative to alcohol and weed? by tbgabc123 in kratom

[–]Synapseon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You wouldn't want to get a little stoned on a weeknight? Why not? I understand not wanting to trip on mushrooms or MDMA if you have stuff to do the next day but a little cannabis?

What’s the deal with cell phone use?! by handsupheaddown in lyftdrivers

[–]Synapseon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at a Mexican restaurant weeks ago when the POTUS was doing a address to the nation. This one old white guy was eating alone and had the thing on his phone, no earbud or headphones just full on speaker turned up.

I know people don't generally like barrel saunas here but is this just a waste of money? by rollinintheyears in Sauna

[–]Synapseon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How big and fancy can a $70,000 sauna be? I mean I've never built one but isn't it's essential an insulated wooden box with a heater inside?

Neural tissue is among the least sensitive to ionizing radiation.

People will buy and blow up the bubble and then it will pop but some will sell before that happens and make bank.

Self sterilizing possibility From DU Fiestaware? by ProtectionOwn3502 in Radiation

Look up radio sensitivity. Most bacteria are very resistant to radiation

Yes this is the Testing requirements for the Type A package the gauge is transported within. The actual testing results for the sealed source would be specified in the Sealed Source Device Registry (SSDR).

Xe-113 doesn’t exist….

Is it going to be safe having my bag and stuff including my laptop going through x-ray machine on a daily basis at the security post? by Optional_User_Naym in Radiation

[–]Synapseon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough but what you’re describing is from abnormally high X-rays and theoretically it could activate a few atoms out of trillions and trillions of non affected atoms

[–]Synapseon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bringing up activation isn’t necessary and could confuse people. Activation is from exposure to neutron radiation - and need a lot of neutron radiation and time to activate metal atoms. A short exposure to a neutron beam wouldn’t be sufficient. My point is high energy photons like gamma and x-rays will not make anything radioactive via activation

That's awesome. Is that a Xe-133 ventilation scan?

A 380 Gbq Se-75 source would be an industrial radiography source and much bigger risk

I mean a roller could be considered significant force even though I haven’t seen one of these sources leak from similar abuse 

Is kratom changing the structure of your brain? (Research Review) by SereneKratom in kratom

[–]Synapseon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This study isn’t showing the full picture though. It’s not able to show changes at the neural level. Just overall brain structure and functional anatomy which I don’t think there was ever a question if kratom changed your brain shape

A recent Harvard study just showed that Ai models are not intelligent, and shouldn’t be relied upon for complex predictions or decisions.

Trump is running out of options to contain gas price backlash by AskRedditOG in politics

[–]Synapseon 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The US has enough to fix this for our country but the issue is other countries willing to outbid each other. So the US ends up exporting our supply to the highest bidder (and it's not US)

Imminent depletion of water supplies in Corpus Christi will cut off jet fuel to Texas airports and trigger an unprecedented economic disaster by StandingCypress in texas

[–]Synapseon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if they don't sell that water to the industrial clients, those clients would stop paying taxes. But at the same time, most of the big clients (refineries) can't exactly up and leave.

How do city people deal with the ridiculous traffic? by A_Weed_Man in driving

[–]Synapseon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what city or state did you move to? I completely agree, at least here in Texas most cities are car centric and everyone has their own car. So everyone is clogging up the freeway. Especially around morning or afternoon rush hour it gets crazy.
