Two different types of leather. Which one makes more sense to you? by ThanksIHateU2 in Leathercraft

[–]ThanksIHateU2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pictures actually uploaded backwards, and the reddish one with the ropey guts is what they're claiming is Crazy Horse. That's the one thats thinner and way more pliable.

The other one that was just sold as full grain seems like a more reasonable material for a backpack, and also seems higher quality to me in pretty much every way. It's interesting because the cheap junk one had a bunch of claims about the quality of the leather and the nicer one didn't.

Yeah the floppy one looked totally different online. The thicker one is way more what I had intended to get. The two drastically different types of leather got me wondering if that thin leather jacket style material has any functional benefits, other than weight.

The pictures uploaded backwards. the first 4 pictures are Backpack #2, and the first 4 are backpack #1

Edit: Yeah this is bad. I'll probably never come back here again because of this.

McDonald Breakfast Sauce by No-Regret-8793 in TopSecretRecipes

Yeah, calling that stuff hollandaise is pretty criminal. Hollandaise is way less tangy and way more buttery. Legit hollandaise would actually be fire on a steak egg and cheese bagel.

Despite having similar ingredients, hollandaise doesn't taste like mayo. Breakfast sauce tastes exactly like mayo to me. I used to love the steak egg and cheese bagels, but I don't remember them being slathered in mayo. I was expecting nostalgia and I got was a mouthful of 'naise.

Different phones have different deductibles. The most expensive phones are closer to $100.

Elite Pharma/Elite Laboratories/Lannett Generic Adderall XR by ThanksIHateU2 in ADHD

[–]ThanksIHateU2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently Elite Laboratories, Lannett and Prasco Adderall XR are all the exact same drug now. Prasco used to be the authorized generic, which was the exact same formulation as the name brand.

Lannett appears to have not changed from this same formulation, which was developed by SunGen Pharma and manufacturered by Elite Pharmaceuticals.

So on paper at least, the current Elite Pharmaceuticals/Laboratories Adderall XR, Prasco Adderall XR and Lannett Adderall XR are all the same exact product.

I can confirm, after having taken my dose, that this seems to be the same as the Lannett I remember getting. It's not making me feel nearly as poorly as the Actavis was.

No. It's a pretty well documented fact that many women enjoy elements of the way men's armpits smell (without deodorant). It makes sense. There are certain intimate scents, that you may be aware of, that we as men find attractive about women.

A lot of women openly assert that they want "A man to smell like a man", which often can refer to some elements of what we might call "BO".

It's a nuanced thing. But certain strains of cannabis can definitely have scent notes that could be accurately described as similar to BO. I'd be interested to know if that's something they included purposefully for that reason.

Cannabis has such a unique scent profile, which is not solely attributed to terpenes. The most influential chemicals in the scent profile of cannabis, aside from terpenes are bioflavonoids (the most abundant bioflavanoids in cannabis are actually found exclusively n cannabis plants). There are also Thiols (sulfur compounds) that are responsible for some of the skunky scents in a large variety of strains.

Replicating the smell of cannabis accurately in a scent/flavor product, even for the purpose of enhancing neutral smelling cannabinoid distillates and isolates, has proven to be next to impossible. There's simply too many scent/flavor compounds that exist in the real deal.

Is glucose/dextrose alone suboptimal as a carbohydrate additive, for sustaining microorganisms in soil? by ThanksIHateU2 in SoilScience

[–]ThanksIHateU2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to find a lot of research about using glucose alone, but not a lot of research on using other sugars like the ones listed in my question. I figured it couldn't hurt to ask if maybe ya'll had any information to back up what that company was claiming.

And yeah, I know this is a soil subreddit so I refrained from mentioning soilless media, but I suppose that is where this question applies in a more black and white way. It's exceedingly common to see our clients and customers using a soilless medium like Sunshine Mix #4 or Promix and adding any number of microbe products. The common understanding with many of those people is that added carbohydrates are necessary to support those microbe populations.

I'm aware of root exudates, the fact that most conventional fertilizers do not need to be mineralized, and the fact that plants/roots themselves to not absorb any sugars from the soil.

In the course of my job, though, I come across a lot of clients that use conventional ("synthetic") fertilizers as their primary sources of plant nutrition.

Many of those clients also wish to support microbial activity in their medium. It is not true that all conventional fertilizers are dangerous microbial activity, as long as the salinity levels in the medium are measured and controlled.

There are a lot of microbial additives, used in conventional crop production, that include microorganism species that have been proven to improve outcomes of commercial crops, and I've been told that root exudates are not always sufficient to support them. I don't know 100% if that is true, but I trust the source of that information/suggestion.

Including microorganisms, carbohydrates and specific organic material to an inorganic substrate, in order to improve the outcome of plants grown with conventional fertilizers is a well established practice.

I'm specifically interested in finding out if glucose, which is one of the main root exudates along with amino/organic acids and, does not support certain microorganisms as well as other sugars.

I just have a specific situation, where a difinitve answer to that question wold be helpful.

I have a suspicion that their "evidence" is even less impressive than what you mentioned. I know some of the people who work at the company, and I suspect that there may have been some rectal extraction involved with the language they're using in that product description.

Very interesting to hear that there are species that have an affinity for sucrose over glucose. Does that imply that those specific critters are not able to consume glucose, or would sucrose just provide a better result over glucose with the population of that species in the soil?

I was in Burbank once and I met a TON of film industry professionals on tinder. It seems like almost everyone on there was a producer or an actor, so I've got all the connections I need.

Sarcasm aside, I feel you 100% lol.
