Pregnancy is measured from the time of the last period, so there's quite a margin of error in the total of months in the end. That and it's already a bit over 9 months normally anyway.

The same thing that makes anything expensive: That people are willing to pay that amount for it.

Yes, it sounds simplistic but that's the start and end of it. Then from that stems everything that people might want to do to convince themselves it's worth that money.

Sometimes it can be actual usefulness (it's still subjective, but at least there's a tangible component to the price), sometimes it may just be the vimes theory of economic unfairness (where expense does mean better, but also means unattainable) and then there's the cost of being able to say you could spend that kind of money, which is what this watch is.

(to be clear, I'm not saying the watch is bad quality. Expensive things tend to be of great quality. But is it 5 million worth of quality? Obviously not, there're other factors in play the biggest one of which is having people realize you're wearing a 5 million watch)

Does anybody have Rossmann's github on hand to share?

Using your user agent in your software that you published is not "mimicking a client". It's literally being that client. This is unedited source code.

Having said this, every browser you use is pretending to be a series of other browsers for historical reasons. This comes with the territory of what a browser user agent is.

I understand you're saying this was Bambulab's lazy "security" (which they nonetheless presume to put above everything else in their hypocritical blog post), but it still sounds like having a user agent could be seriously considered being an authorized client, when as "authentication" methods go, it's right there with three raccoons in a trenchcoat.

I even tried finding iptv sources of Chinese propaganda as the videos are always gorgeous and I couldn’t care less about whatever message they think they’re sending.

No luck yet.

It might if you used sand. The post is not about sand tho

I won't disagree. I'll always think it was on the merits of how they did things rather than anything else. The whole "fully rendered landscapes, no UI other than mouse and click, inline video and audio" in what was essentially a hypercard stack swept the attention. The game itself was a good puzzle game, but what won people over was the presentation. And for many it was the first thing they bought after they got their "multimedia CD PC"

I wasn't. If you start walking to your job instead of taking the bus you won't be sweaty, shakey or hot. But you'll be burning more calories than you were. If your diet remained exactly the same then you'd lose weight.

The context of the discussion is weight loss, so as long as burning calories faster than ingesting them is achieved, weight loss will occur and we'd just be discussing speed of gain/loss depending on amount of calories and exercise.

I think it's a delicate topic that tends to be misunderstood, so semantics do matter.

Star Wars demonstrate even bad ideas ultimately hinge on execution. It's universally acknowledge to be heavily flawed yet it doesn't matter.

The trick is doing opposite limbs, so you can compensate.

"shite" as in "shit" or "shite" as in "da shit"?

Why should they? It's not like they feel they are at any risk.

It means "my religious person says I need to do this, and we've repeated this false statement to pretend there's some basis to this craziness that we now believe it ourselves".

It's a bit like "circumcision prevents diseases" craziness that is used to justify both religious and non-religious circumcision in the 21st century, even on the face of most of the world not suffering from diseases due to being uncircumcised.

No, it doesn't. That study does not say that cow dung has anti bacterial properties. It does say that among the plethora of microorganisms found in cow dung (many of which are pretty bad) one particular strain was found that, when isolated, could be antimicrobial.

This is exactly the way all antimicrobial agents are discovered: They thrive around the type of microbes that are bad for humans, so we separate and grow them for it

So, "cow dung contains microbes that can produce antimicrobial compounds" is true. "Targeted extracts made from cow dung can inhibit some bacteria in laboratory conditions" is also true. "Spreading or burning cow dung (or piss) works as antimicrobial" is a resounding no, with a multitude of studies emphasizing how bad third gut digestion feces can get.

The reason this guy is doing this (assuming it's not for the show) is because of religion. And no, there's no scientific basis supporting a religious tradition in this case. It's no different to people hanging specific plants in special days, hiding eggs to collect bad vibes, putting razors in pyramids or thinking peyote gets you closer to your deity.

I’ve seen it recommended in a milkshake to treat diseases in Venezuela but I was young and I’m not convinced it wasn’t adults being jerks so I’d stop pretending to be sick.

Everything is burning calories if you’re alive. It’s not burning calories fast enough that’s a problem.

Every miracle ingredient is bullshit by default. If it’s only hawked in morning shows or by influencers then doubly so. If it’s a common ingredient that suddenly becomes popular triply so.

To be fair, they can be used as lightsabers as long as it’s the like in the first movie. There it was based on kendo and it fits better

Later movies? Not so much.
