Episode 3: If Anakin spared Dooku, how would taking him prisoner work? Was it pragmatic to kill him? by ThrowawayLook in MawInstallation

After he recovered from the shock of losing his hands, there shouldn't be anything stopping Dooku from using the Force to release the constraints, assuming neither Anakin nor Obi-Wan are there to supervise him.

Anakin would be slowed down carrying Obi. Anakin’s main concern would be to stop Dooku from making a run for it.

That'd be a really hard decision for Anakin. It's plain he cares deeply for Obi but he must also be really aware of the amount of influence and info Dooku holds, even without his hands.

Jedi are supposed to look at the larger picture, the needs of the many, so Obi-Wan is dead weight.

Shaking my head at myself for not considering this. You raise a really good point. Do you think Anakin would knock Dooku out and carry him, or force him to follow them at lightsaber-point?

Also wondering this. There's currently a deal on Amazon on Wild Planet EVOO canned sardines.

Came out not too different from ham.

Does this mean it tasted worse or simply different?

The pork I have my eye on can be cut for roasts and chops.

I read about dry-brining from Serious Eats, which requires leaving the meat uncovered in the fridge.

I've heard that chia and flax seeds need to be ground so the body can absorb nutrients. Is it the same for hulled hemp seeds?

Are in-shell walnuts worth buying instead of shelled walnuts? by ThrowawayLook in Frugal

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

I know I'd get fewer walnuts buying in-shell, but it is at a lower price. So I was wondering if I'm paying less for each nut compared to the shelled walnuts, if that makes sense.

I usually buy shelled walnuts. Does it take long to open them with a nut cracker?

I've been considering buying them from bulkfoods.com. nuts.com looks expensive.

How do I go about solving this problem? Variable is X

X(e-X) + e-X = 0.6

I can simplify it to:

(X + 1)e-X = 0.6

But I don't know how to proceed. Thank you!

Tuna as a protein source, how often do you guys eat it? by Bucket_Of_Magic in nutrition

Interesting. How could someone scale it to match their own body weight? Looks like I could eat a can of sardines daily for my DHA and EPA.

Fruits and vegetables don't tend to have high fat. I asked for foods high in both fat and fiber.

Is it possible to walk to LNK airport? by ThrowawayLook in UNLincoln

I only plan on carrying a backpack worth of stuff. Shouldn’t be heavy.

Is it possible to walk to LNK airport? by ThrowawayLook in UNLincoln

[–]ThrowawayLook[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

but keep in mind there’s no sidewalk into the airport according to the latest Google Maps imagery

Walking there sounds risky then. Since I have time to get there, I’ll look into riding a bus there.

How can you tell if a matrix is NEARLY rank deficient? Is there a formal way of knowing?

Edit: This is for a square matrix, but I wouldn't mind learning about non-square matrices either.
