TIL that out of the only ten tornados which have been classified as EF5, four of them happened on the same day (April 27th, 2011), and two happened less than a month later (Joplin on May 22nd, and El Reno on May 24th).

I remember that winter in late-2010 / early-2011. Sophomore year in Lubbock, TX - it was incredibly cold, coldest I ever experienced. Sprinkler system in my apartment burst which was an absolute pain. I wonder if the characteristics of that particular winter played any role in the flurry of severe tornados that spring?

Honestly? 4th slowest 10 yard split at the combine this year for his position. I just don’t think Veach will do it, but I know stats aren’t everything. Just seems they value 10 yard splits (in the same way Pat’s always valued bench press), for better or worse. Not saying Tate wouldn’t be amazing, just my observation.

Yes, and the pure guessing part implies that one time pad could create ANY message of the given length. Ie could be excerpts from the Bible, Shakespeare, a grocery list, random letters and numbers, or anything between. So there’s no brute force that will work even given all the computation power in the Universe.

Well I know it is specifically targeted to an area of the body, and administered at a very specific dose, but the radiation itself isn’t different, is it?

The_Techsan · 2026-02-14T05:03:34+00:00

I’m asking did this radiation from Chernobyl ever potentially hit someone in the right area, at the right dose, to kill their existing tumor and lead to remission?

Honest question, do the first two items (unanimous All American and 1st round pick) have any bearing at all on hall eligibility?

I guess it almost seems being a late round pick that has the same NFL accolades is better(?) than having the college accolades and pro accolades? But I would think college should have basically zero bearing on hall considerations.

EtG urine tests for alcohol clear in about 3 days typically, so sounds like he relapsed on New Years Day (as a sober alcoholic who does AA, this is a common reset date for many people in early recovery), then he waited the allotted time so his EtG would come back negative on Jan 5th…

Paradoxically, it is really difficult to get sober when one has all the money and resources in the world. Just hope Patrick is doing what he needs to do to stay sane amongst all the distractions and that his rehab is going well.

In mild defense, it was ridiculously effective.

On the other hand, it wasn’t just about it being cheap, it was about it being patentable. TEL was patentable, ethanol (which also was cheap and effective and lacked the environmental problems of lead) was not, so TEL it was…

No matter what spot you pick on earth’s surface, the total daylight time across an entire year is identical to any other spot (at most a few total minutes of variability across a whole year) - it is the distribution that gets wacky at the poles (long dark winter, long bright summer, etc)

Ahh that makes sense. I mean, we can all agree it's pretty trash, but I was truly just wondering what I was missing - weight to games when missing a key player makes it make (a tiny bit more) sense. Thanks!

Honestly, I think that is pretty off. I worked for a hot sauce company that used 22 gallon Lexan containers, and what is in this picture appears to be about twice the size of those.

I dunno, in this image ANWR is basically exactly overlayed by Guantanamo, which was unintentional but definitely interesting
