  1. Has been always a mystery to me. Since centuries BC, to pre-industrial eras. For all those sail ships and constructions and many things. Found a video that deserves sharing. But is not in English. You should be able to enjoy it anyway ---> https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=137162458444242
  2. 😀 Hi. Languages do not evolve, they are degenerated and contaminated by mostly lazyness. 😀
  3. If the artificial intelligence responds to abbreviations, I will be more against this crap. It is not cello. It is violoncello. It is spreading of laziness to write. So improper wording rules by accepting the wrong slang. Intelligence should correct this degeneration of languages by proper responses, or refuse to answer. Many sites robots ask the human if is human... What a load of diarrhea. The non-human is them.
  4. Good day. Under what term can I find studies/suggestions of which percentages of a daily (or monthly) income is supposed to be enough for expenses of food, fuel, electricity, car payment, insurance, entertainment, housing, medicines, savings, clothing... all the costs of daily living for a 'normal' ideal life (no luxury, no hardship) ? Example: A 'normal' income budget should keep up with housing cost under 30% , car payment under 10%, electric bill under 8%, food under 6% , savings ideally over 10%, insurance under 4%, and so on. Any suggestions how to/where to look ?

    A.I. ; The diarrhea of humanity taking over search engines shows : ========================================================================================================== How many A.I. are there ? Which one is believable ? Can a species have more than one scientific name ?
  7. Hello. What determines how a plant recognizes the altitude in which it is supposed to grow better or not ? Is it the oxygen content, the temperature, the barometric pressure ? Escapes to mind how/why a plant can grow better (or only at) the Andes and not at a location with similar environment.
  8. Hello all. Did not know on which subforum to post. Here it goes. If a LED is flashed for a tenth of a second, it is easily discernible. - For the same current/power pulse; if the time of a single flash is reduced to a hundredth of a second, it also is. What about 1 millisecond ? And 10 microseconds ? Shorter ? What determines the shortest time for perception ? Should it vary by observer ? Would color sensitivity be a factor ?
  9. Hi. Again. A ship navigates against the river current, its engine developing 1000 horsepower and is not enough, advancing nothing, just maintaining position. Another identical ship next to it also maintains position as it is anchored. How many horsepower is the anchor developing ? 🙄
  10. Hi all. As titled; a fiberglass shower walls need removal of silicone leftovers that held a sliding door. The thick of it has been scraped without marring the surface. Need some magic that is not $49.99999 plus $19.9999 shipping plus handling plus tax plus not guaranteed to work plus... 🤔
  11. Hello all. 240VAC motors being "overhead" rated : A 20 HP capable motor or a 10 HP capable motor or a 5 HP capable motor driving a machine that demands just 2 HP to perform well (elevator, pump, compressor, whatever...) will any motor fitted consume nearly the same power/energy 'X' ? If the electrical supply is reduced to 120VAC instead for those 240VAC motors and the driven machine demand is still met performing equally fine, will any motor fitted consume nearly the same power/energy 'X' ?
  12. To the contrary, A.I. wants another medicine to stop walking all wet leaving the floor slippery.
  13. Good morning mister president of the U.S. You are widely considered the most powerful politician in the planet. Demonstrate your power on a subject that will benefit everyone by reversing the inflation.
  14. Greetings. First was called 'global warming', now a more generic 'climate change', like it is not only about getting hotter. For the recent decades, what are the changes/variations/tendencies in average atmospheric pressure, ultraviolet index, ozone presence, geothermal activity, windy conditions, humidity readings... not only temperature ? I only encounter graphs for how many average degrees versus decades. Nothing else varies or kept track ?
  15. Thanks. Looking for a violet laser and a red in one package, saw this as 'burner' but mentions 'class 1' Can it be class 1 if is a 'writer' ? Do you know which device uses a violet burner laser diode plus other in one package ?
  16. Greetings. If all the lasers below emit the same optical output power, the most dangerous one to retina damage is the purple because is barely perceived + carries the highest energy due the highest frequency. Is that correct ? Being the eyes poorly sensitivity to purple, eye damage is easier to happen for that color emission, do protective goggles have to be much better than for other colors ?. Is that right ? If proper purple-blocking goggles mask/attenuate the color; locating an aimed target may be very difficult to see. Is that right ? Is there such a thing as a coaxial dual color laser -say simultaneous pointer green and high powered purple- that with proper protection goggles blocks the dangerous and allows seeing the aiming spot ? Like the green only to show where the purple is aiming ? I have several salvaged optical blocks from DVD/CD writers that use a prism to focus to the same spot. Would that be an alternative to "coaxial" beams ?
  17. Tortilla of spanish origin is exactly an omelette. Whatever flat bread they make in MÊjico is something else with a hijacked name.
  18. Thanks. Post count is not here : OK, confusing. Found at other screen... Different behaviors at different places.
  19. If any is interested; similar subject: fly 130Km for $8 on electric aircraft ----> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJaDN1eeeDE
  20. Hello. Clicking your own avatar shows the option of listing "your attachments". Can the option of showing your posts be added there, if deserved or convenient to members ? Thank you.
  21. Hi. Something that seems I learned here is the amount of desired rise of bread dough is what determines when to start the baking. It is not the moment when ceases to rise any more signaling to start the baking stage as I thought. Then it is another variable in the process.
  22. Hi all. You own a salmon nursery. Your reproduction technique/genetics or somewhow for a couple of years puts a distinctive orange spot on the fish skin coming out of your 'factory' facilities. The young salmon are freed to the river and they continue to sea and open sea until adults. If caught by a fisherman, could you claim ownership by the orange spot identification ? 🙄 Twisting the above... If every fish released is tagged with 'ownership' as a dog would; and caught by a fisherman at sea... I think it has been done extensively with free roaming cattle 'branding'.
  23. Thanks, ladies and gentlemen. (Trying to shift an art into science...🙄) Is that added as dough ingredient or brushed on top before entering oven ? How would killing yeast a bit later not keep the structure in-place ? Would not increase rising until yeast dies a bit later ? That double-action dry (fermentation + heating?) instant-or-not yeast, will not perform fully if the yeast is killed sooner, or rising by temperature is not about the yeast but something like chemical leavening added ? Looong ago read sugar feeds the yeast; and salt impairs it. Is it still true ? Having both in a recipe does not make much sense to me.
  24. Hello. Why deflating the first rise of the dough and going trough the delay of a second rise as many recipes call for ? Seems that deflating the first also produces heavier, denser, less airy bread. Is there a reason ? Should a too crusty bread with lightly raw inside can be improved baking at lower temperature and longer time or that is not the way ? And third; pre-heating the oven yields a more abrupt rise or a cold start would provide a more uniform rise ?
