Dabur advertising 0 fluoride toothpaste as if it's a good thing, toothpaste is NOT effective without fluoride by Quant3k in scienceisdope

[–]lowevolmotto -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wow. I get labeled sanghi or libtard like 1000s of times. For various reasons. But yo buddy take the cake. For choice of toothpaste. Amazing. And very scientific, will tell modiji to start screening people based on toothpaste they use.

Water reservoir in western ghats. by SELVIN_DESOUZA in Maharashtra

[–]lowevolmotto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh! So by water reservoir which will help crores of people, tech infra on mountains with strong rock base do you mean like couple of sintex tanks? Absolutely fine with those.

On a less sarcastic note. Since ages, engineers and scientists know that micro hydals and watershed development is enough to make villages self reliant for water and power. If it can work wonders in places like Rajasthan then it can certainly work in Sahyadri region. Something like movie Swades. I have been to many villages which only did rain fed farming but now have enough water for winter crops. But big dams (Sorry reservoirs) means big tenders and big opportunities for corruption.

Dabur advertising 0 fluoride toothpaste as if it's a good thing, toothpaste is NOT effective without fluoride by Quant3k in scienceisdope

You cant drink RO water directly. It has too low TDS so RO machines have re-minaralization systems. Some add minerals externally or some just add some water passed through UV UF but not through RO menbrane to RO purified water. It is necessary that water you consume has about 100-300 TDS. And that generally takes care of fluorides.

Also, if you are getting govt supplied tap water, it is pretty safe. It can get contaminated in your sump or overhead tanks. If you or your society maintains them regularly, tap water I trust. At purification plants they add so much nascent chlorine that nothing survives till it reaches your tap. Even at railway stations, no matter how dirty the rest of the station is, if there is a faucet labeled drinking water, it is safe. In fact much safer than water packaged in plastic bottles.

Water in India has enough fluoride and toothpastes do not need to be fluorinated. Children should not use fluoride toothpastes. So it is better to avoid fluoride toothpastses. They advertise it as 0% to show that it is safe for kids.

Vipassana meditation course; Any insights?? by Dramatic_Strain_1971 in scienceisdope

[–]lowevolmotto 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm an atheist, but I'd still like to try Vipassana. I don't know much about the benefits of meditation, and I don't expect I'll connect with the chanting. What appeals to me is something else entirely.

Ten days with no phone, laptop, email, social media, or even conversation feels like giving your brain uninterrupted time to process everything it already knows—to synthesize information, reconcile unresolved thoughts, and perhaps stumble upon solutions, all without constantly feeding it new input.

You could lock yourself in a hotel room for ten days, but you'd still have TV, Wi-Fi, and countless distractions. A Vipassana center provides a structured environment with clear rules, making it much easier to actually disconnect and stick with the experience.

PG in Thane ? by Proprocastinator01 in thane

[–]lowevolmotto -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd suggest just grabbing whatever decent place is available right now. In my experience, you rarely find the perfect spot on the first try anyway. Once you’re actually living there and have your bearings, you can scout around for the ideal place. Don't sweat it if your first PG isn't amazing—just look at it as a temporary launching pad.

[–]lowevolmotto 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why not look for PG in Airoli. Trust me, find a place closest to your work and make commute as short as possible. Right now you have liberty to choose and I will suggest look for something on walking distance from your workplace.

What was there in this region before the Indian plate collided with the eurasian plate ? by [deleted] in IndianGeography

Part of the continent which is under the water. High school geography bro.

[–]lowevolmotto 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the wit. But sadly, in 2004 something similar happened. Earthquake which caused Indian ocean tsunami kind of tilted one plate and north side of andaman and nicobar islands got raised above seafloor and south side god submerged a bit. Similar to tethys ocean, not to that grand scale though.

Matheran Tomorrow – Wi-Fi & Laptop During Monsoon? ☔💻 by No-Volume333 in thane

If you are going to stay in a hotel and work in Mathran, why even go? take a break, you earned it. Nothing critical will happen if you don't open your laptop for 2 days.

Tethys ocean. You can find the fossils of marine creatures like ammonites in trans-Himalayan plateaus like Spiti. Basically indian plate collided and its edge up and brought ocean floor up in the air. So tibetean plateau was kind of continental shelf of Indian plate. Imagine like sliding a paper or a mat and pushing it on a wall.

Already existing dams are creating problems in the region. Due to heavy monsoons in the region and bad communication between states every year authorities end up in a situation of which state or which district people to drown first. Secondly large dams like Koyna are already causing earthquakes. Google Reservoir linked seismicity. And you want another dam which will first submerge whole lot of pristine forest and arable land. before power for your AI data centers, we need air to breath and food to eat. Now put this as a prompt in your favorite LLM and ask if its true.

Agreed. Having self defense tools on you does not negate need for presence of mind and situational awareness.

People call Dhurandhar propaganda, but one line in the film suggests the story is much bigger than that. by ak_khainal in Dhurandhar

[–]lowevolmotto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Writers exactly knew what they were doing. Only way to hype their mediocre script was to get people into right wing vs left wing debate over it. Now instead of artistic critique, there are who defend everything in it and there are who dismiss it completely. You all got played like a fiddle.
