Most dangerous chemicals?
Dimethylmercury doesn't have many uses because of its toxicity. It can pass through layers of protective gloves. Scientist Karen Wetterhahn was a killed by it. IIRC handling protocols were changed after her death.

Octopus intelligence
I recently re-joined Facebook and have been doom-scrolling endless animal videos by amateurs, and I have to say that there's more to many animals than meets the eye. Animals are not robots, completely driven by instinct.

A sudden sharp transient would be harder on the ear drum, I would have thought.... like a shotgun.- Family claim Amber Alert ruptured son's eardrums, file lawsuit against Apple
165dB seems to be the starting point. 115-120db is where it will probably start hurting- Aliens from space (split from Time to talk about UFO's or now as the military calls them UAP's?)
Also 10Kg of it at about $4000/g.- Aliens from space (split from Time to talk about UFO's or now as the military calls them UAP's?)
When the input signal is too low or confusing, the brain will make something up. That's how pareidolia works.- Political Humor
- TFG or That Florida Guy? Either way, can the GOP win in 2024?
Aye, but most politicians don't totally focus on that sector.- TFG or That Florida Guy? Either way, can the GOP win in 2024?
He is firmly latched onto those that are less able cognitively and materially. Trump is totally a bottom drawer person... as we all know.- TFG or That Florida Guy? Either way, can the GOP win in 2024?
Funding TFG's legal needs and the election will probably finish them off. These issues are a billion dollars each on there own. Unless someone throws a billion their or his way.- The Official JOKES SECTION :)
Why do people get antsy about stuff. Nobody creates in a vacuum.- nonstop barrage of full page ad walls
Just looked, it hasn't been available since Safari 13. Adlock has been described as similar. Maybe worth a look?- nonstop barrage of full page ad walls
uBlock Origin is available for most platforms. Look in settings as well for more blocks. Ive used it for years.- War Games: Russia Takes Ukraine, China Takes Taiwan. US Response?
It's looking like the UK may well turn left this election.- The Official JOKES SECTION :)
Revenge is a dish best served cold... like that.- Science is science. The truth is only one.
When it has a pathological effect on the individual and their carers. You make it sound benign,- War Games: Russia Takes Ukraine, China Takes Taiwan. US Response?
With Russia finally admitting it is "at war" with Ukraine, will this change anything in terms of the rules of conflict? Does that free open more options for them in what they can allow militarily with their armed forces and population?- Is print the double edged sword that dangles by a thread?
Is it part of a managed persona to be constantly cryptic? It's a waste of life "conversing" with you, how you behave. Your behaviour is fucking irritating. This is the first and last time I'm saying this.- Crispr experiment allows cell level removal of HIV.
I can understand the palpable hint of getting rid of this that many HIV+ must feel right now. I contracted HCV in the 80's, through my own fault, diagnosed in 1992. They had Interferon sufficiently nailed down for me to push it below detection in 2016. This is routine now with far kinder drugs. 20-30 years is a long subjective time to wait for a long term solution.- Is print the double edged sword that dangles by a thread?
One day he might twig on.- Why use the atomic bomb on Japan?
The ''demon core' still killed a few although that was through naivete of its handlers.- Are the negative effects of antibiotics on male fertility permanent?
Pthaalates probably, that softens plastics. Apparently, they migrate out over time.- Crispr experiment allows cell level removal of HIV.
Scientists say they have successfully eliminated HIV from infected cells, using Nobel Prize-winning Crispr gene-editing technology. Working like scissors, but at the molecular level, it cuts DNA so "bad" bits can be removed or inactivated. The hope is to ultimately be able to rid the body entirely of the virus, although much more work is needed to check it would be safe and effective. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-68609297 - Family claim Amber Alert ruptured son's eardrums, file lawsuit against Apple
