  1. Because they don't disagree with what they are saying. What they are saying is in line with the theoretical principles that are understood amongst the scientific community, at that point in time.
  2. I used to watch The 'Water Margin'. Have you seen that series? 1970's. 'Monkey', late 70's, was another.

    Worse than that: Nobel God-Emperor.
  4. Anecdotally, sample one, high temperature light is great looking for stuff or at small details, but it keeps me awake at night. I consciously choose lower temps at night to tire my eyes and brain out. I think that might be due to the increased effort the brain and/or eyes undergo trying to chromatically recorrect the warm light to neutral white. I have a mix of 3000K, 4000K, 5000K, 6000K torches that I've played around with.

    Old Soviet joke: A man goes to a news stand every day and looks at just the front pages of all the newspapers. The guy behind the stand asks him what he's looking for. "An obituary". "But comrade, obituaries aren't on the front page!" "The one I'm looking for will be."
  6. BABY [in high chair]: throws strained peas and carrots on floor MRS. POLLOCK: Knock it off, Jackson.
  7. Music is the art and can be expressed in any form. You don't have to be an artisan/craftsman with some instrument to make music. A person that can create perfect copies is not an artist, even though their skill may be immense; s/he is a technician. Skill alone does not make an artist.
  8. One would hope that there are pro-Constitution military insiders creating networks as we post for them to share intelligence and mutual help within the lower ranks. I think it is imperative that doubters don't feel isolated and have recourse to support and advice. Remember, the regime went nuts when the ranks were advised by Kelly et al not to follow illegal orders. I'm sure Trump's mob will be looking out feverishly for dissent within the ranks
  9. Won't it depend on how many military members actually support the government?
  10. Maybe it won't help materially, but, philosophically, once its conditions are met for tyranny by the sitting government, bearing arms against that government is within the law. The moral position lies on the side of those who uphold the Constitution. Pro-Constitutionalists can have peace of mind knowing they are on the right side of the law. That can give people the inner strength and moral fortitude to meet the moment.
  11. Nobody on the side of democracy and the Constitution has any real recourse to the law anymore. I think the only thing left is the 2A.

    LOL. That was posted by Adam Kinzinger on Bluesky. Here's two more:

  14. Antibiotics wreck my gut behaviour for quite some time after the course. I hate taking them.
  15. I agree. Anyone with great skill in some endeavour has usually put in a lot of time and effort, probably decades, into being where they are. We should admire their perseverance to get where they are, and not dismiss them as likely wrong because we don't personally understand.
  16. No, I didn't, using pasteurised, it was fine. I think the culture soon overwhelms any other strains in there. I wouldn't bother heating with uht.
  17. Yeah, you need to know how the theory will stand up to reality, and that's what engineers are for.
  18. Ok. Right. corrected.
  19. I understood, maybe wrongly, that everything that can be measured has a quantum value, and stuff like individual virtual particles have energy values much lower, such that they cant be measured i.e. sub-quantum. I thought the ZPE was the lowest energy anything can happen, but it doesn't mean the point of no energy at all. E2A
  20. The BBC's famed reporting integrity is a myth now.
  21. Is that because ZPE is sub-quantum in value? Nothing in the sub-quantum domain can normally affect the quantum domain.
