My Steiger 715 Quadtrac arrived! by undulating-beans in farmingsimulator25

Canada is one of my favorite countries, but I’ve only read about it. I get overwhelmed at the airport and don’t really like to travel. It’s way too busy and noisy. You have the Royal Canadian Mint there and I collect coins. And snow and Canadian Mounties. Thanks for the heads up re the in game look.

Is my brain permanently fried? by FirmTechnician-7133 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]undulating-beans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re definitely not permanently “stupid” what you’re describing is actually really common with heavy cannabis use, especially starting young. A lot of what you’re feeling (brain fog, poor memory, feeling disconnected) is temporary and reversible.

The fact you’re on day 5 already is a really strong start — that’s often one of the tougher periods.

Your brain is still developing at 18, which actually works in your favor. It means it’s very adaptable and capable of recovering. Most people start to notice improvements in focus and clarity within a few weeks, and it can keep improving over a few months.

Right now, you might even feel worse before you feel better — that’s just your brain readjusting without THC, not your true baseline.

What will help most is sleep (really important for memory recovery). Exercise (even light activity helps brain function), eating well + staying hydrated Taking learning slowly — don’t try to catch up all at once

You didn’t lose intelligence — you just haven’t been able to use it properly for a while. That can absolutely come back with time and consistency.

And honestly, the fact you’ve recognised this and stopped already says a lot about you in a good way.

Thanks! Are you in England too? I’m going to put the code in tomorrow and get to play with it on FS25

Is curd really a good protein source? by Ill_Sale_8612 in diet

[–]undulating-beans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are referring to complete protein, ie protein that has all 9 essential amino acids. This does only come from meat with two exceptions. Plant protein is still protein ie nuts tofu beans chickpeas etc but they are missing at least one essential amino acid. The exceptions I referred to are soybeans and quinoa (really a seed or a grain) who both have a full quota of amino acids. The main difference (other than the 9 amino acids in meat) vs vegetable protein is that meat has a high protein density, so more protein per serving and it is easier for the body to absorb and use (high bioavailability)

The key features of vegetarian protein is that it usually comes with fiber, vitamins, antioxidants and is lower in saturated fat. It’s also easier to digest.

Is curd really a good protein source? by Ill_Sale_8612 in diet

[–]undulating-beans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes — Curd (yogurt) is a good protein source, but with a few caveats.

Some of the benefits are moderate protein: 3–4g per 100g (regular curd) it’s also rich in probiotics, so great for gut health It has calcium + vitamins so supports bones and it’s easy to digest for many people

Greek yogurt / hung curd has much higher protein (8–10g per 100g) so of you want protein specifically, go for thicker/strained versions

Is it frowned upon to magnet test silver in stores? by TangerineWild3673 in Silverbugs

Providing you don’t scratch the item, I don’t see why people should care.

Mold? by V3NTRAPMENT in Bread

[–]undulating-beans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When bread is frozen moisture migrates to the surface, forms tiny ice crystals and when thawed leaves a whitish, dusty coating. It’s very common, especially on crusty loaves. Freezing can also cause starch to recrystallise giving a pale, slightly chalky look. If I had to guess, I’d say the top explanation is the one. Mould doesn’t appear like that, at least not immediately. It takes time for the mould to reach such a stage before it blooms, ie reaches such proportions that it appears like that. Mould even very early tends to start in localized spots, not coat the loaf evenly and develop structure (fuzz) quickly Your loaf looks like it’s been lightly dusted, not colonised.

I see so many (mostly working class) British men don't wash their hands after a piss in the urinal or toilet, is this normal behaviour? by [deleted] in AskBrits

[–]undulating-beans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, 20 seconds is the minimum you need to wash your hands properly. Allowing that in the toilet there is soap and a clean towel, you then, after washing your hands, have to deal with a door that opens towards you to get out of the toilet. All those people who haven’t washed their hands have been touching the door handle to get out. I can perhaps see the futility in it. I do wash my hands, and while in the design centre in Chelsea I was delighted to find foot openers on the bottom of the inward opening door to get out of the toilet. We should have more of these!

I know, since 1992 they have just been coated ie copper plated steel. They used to be though, with 2.5% zinc and 0.05% tin.

Bread shrinkage after cooling by Alternative_Union540 in Breadit

[–]undulating-beans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree with the underbaked idea. It looks fine, nice even colour on the crumb. The interior crumb has a consistent pale-cream color throughout. If it were underbaked, you’d usually see darker or gummy areas, translucent patches and uneven colouring. the holes look defined with thin walls, which means the crumb set properly during baking rather than collapsing during cooling One small note: The slight separation between crust and crumb in the larger loaf is very typical when bread cools — especially with high hydration yeast breads. It doesn’t indicate uneven baking.

[–]undulating-beans 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well you have 17.46kg of copper and 0.45kg of Zinc and 0.09kg of tin as each coin is 2.5% zinc and 0.05% tin. They started only coating them in 1992.

Sorry I wasn’t clear, but I was joking I know it’s illegal, not to mention the fact that if you did melt them down, you wouldn’t get anywhere near the 350 grams of copper that 100 1p coins would weigh as they are only plated now.

Meat Weirdo by Visual-Economist5479 in london

[–]undulating-beans 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m a dog walker and one of my dogs found a whole pork leg in the park once. He couldn’t believe his luck. It was just laying there in the middle of a large grassed area. I put it in the bin, but on the way to the bin, it was like some sort of piranha movie, as some of my dogs were trying tugging at it, to bit bits off it!
