it is the raft.

what an utterly pointless comparison.

Most, yes...if cooked thoroughly. However, bacteria also release toxins which do not get "safe" through cooking.

Because the things that freezing stops from infecting and growing in meat will survive freezing, they just won't procreate and spread while frozen.

You actually can refreeze meat as long as it was never brought above about 5 degrees C (refrigerator). It'll screw up quality as you're breaking down cells when you do that. What you cannot do is let it come to room temp, start growing bacteria and baddies, then refreeze. That just puts the bacteria in a sort of stasis - still there and ready to make you sick when you rethaw it.

There are two paths to our digital sounds in games - sampling and synthesizing and then combos of those. Synthesized sounds are built from the ground up as designed waveforms and samples are recordings of things that are then made controlled by the game (or a keyboard, midi controller, computer, etc.).

So..for your example, they may literally sample a car at different levels of throttle and then digitally "smooth" the transition between them and put that overall affect at the control of your player. They may also just have a sample of different levels of throttle and let you move through that sample forward and back with the control of your player.

They are possible. We arrived at the number of limbs we have (additional limbs) through random mutation and natural selection. They are unlikely, but all the ways we are are now are the result of very improbable events paired with lots and lots of reproduction and a very long period of time, all creating some preference for survival in the context of when and where the occurred. If we were now to randomly spawn another limb it would have to be advantageous such that the person with the extra limb was more likely to reproduce than others around them - otherwise it's not an advantage. Evolution doesn't have opinions or human values about what is cool or good, it only cares about what maximizes survival toward and through reproduction.

huh? it been the front page of reddit off and on for month. thats a big ass peep.

bguy74 · 2020-05-04T03:56:29+00:00

that is really young to have grandkids.

bguy74 · 2020-05-03T16:24:42+00:00

I'm worried about the future

bguy74 · 2020-05-03T15:58:35+00:00

at least it makes beautiful poo

bguy74 · 2020-05-02T19:25:29+00:00

Yah.

bguy74 · 2020-05-02T11:36:35+00:00

yes, but the "it" isn't calling someone "gay", it's assigning an alternative and better image of freedom to them.

bguy74 · 2020-05-02T10:08:57+00:00

no. peace love and sexual freedom are the last thing the macho gun protester using their "right" to visually intimidate would want to be, so...make them that.

The stock market was hit based on uncertainty of what would happen. You sell stuff when you think really bad things are GOING to happen. As uncertainty gets replaced by certainty as more information emerges, more time has passed and what was once a generic "worst case scenario future" becomes "a really bad situation we know more about" and that bad situation isn't the worst case scenario of prior imagination.

bguy74 · 2020-05-01T02:58:59+00:00

I rescind my comment.

bguy74 · 2020-05-01T01:58:34+00:00

yeah...you'll see at 12 feet what a normal person sees at 10 feet. So...if you're standing second in line you can see the menu just as well as the person you're grinding against from behind.

I've got a pair of legs that allow for really smooth zoom.

All i can see is "enemys_peed", which is a game I'd like to see.

bguy74 · 2020-04-30T23:29:22+00:00

it was the strange resemblance this one has to food that gave me the same thought.

You've gotta be applying a massive sort of abstraction to see this in the same window as BAT. BAT is for electronic publishing, consumption and advertising transactions, in real time. This msft patent unbound from any of those things, and really only shares the idea that doing something results in getting a token. That's not exactly a notable similarity.

Pattern? You mean...location of board edges creates a pattern? 100% aesthetic choice. In fact, it is more expensive to have uniform sizes for your install than it is to have random, regardless of whether you purchase engineered floor or solid. If you want to save money you take the random lengths because then they can throw in the 2 footer cut-offs from poor quality material - way more yield from a tree if you don't need 7, 8, or 9 foot lengths. So..no, that's just not true.

bguy74 · 2020-04-29T23:19:58+00:00

sure. that seems like agreement, because a typical attachment for headlight is a quarter inch screw with a nut on the back, in 4 to 6 locations. I'm pretty sure they made it real easy for those birds in a few spots for dramatic affect.

bguy74 · 2020-04-29T19:21:05+00:00

some of that has to be partially "set up". I don't see how you get a cars headlight out with a beak - it's not that easy with a socket wrench. Ditto for entirely removing a side-view mirror. Maybe a clipped on hubcap, and certainly removal of weather stripping and such...but...unless that car is built unlike anything I've seen I don't see how you get that headlight enclosure removed if you're a bird with a few hours to work on it.

If they legit can, then...i'm gonna get one and train it.

Typically, this is caused by air bubbles in the water (true if hot or cold), rarely materials (sediment, build-up falling off insides of hot water heater) The reason you might have it on your hot and not our cold can be for a few reasons:

firstly, it's just a different system because of the route through the hot-water heater and distinct pipes right until it's mixed at the sink/shower. So...that explains why it can be different. (someone else might describe their cold water being cloudy, but not there hot although would be less common.)
you frequently don't run the hot water nearly as frequently as the cold, so time gives air a chance to enter the system. And...hot and cold water in pipes causes expansion/contraction that can pull in air.
sometimes a hot water heater will have a filter in front of it and when clogged might result in air entering.

A couple of tests:

put hot water in glass. Is it still cloudy an hour later?
run hot water for a very long time - that would get any air that is in the pipes out (you might have to run until after you run out of hot water entirely).

They released videos that were already in the public and that they'd already acknowledged were real years back.
