    What's the buzz? Apparently Merkel's bloc is not doing that well.

    @renauda said in What the HELL is going on in Oz?: @aqua-letifer As Phibes would say, I was taking the piss in the first part of my post. The sarcasm is so thick around here these days it's solidified. Hard to tell sometimes.

    Yes math is the great differentiator. Physics its neighbor is, too. The other disciplines are increasingly about the ability to socially coerce ideas. Math is different in that things can be proven. Dumb people scatter.

    @copper said in What’s the vaccine hesitancy driver?: How about a black asian? White woken are the ones who fetishize black men. Not too many Asian women with black men, funnily enough. Where’s that IQ bell curve again?

    @kluurs said in Searing Steaks and Sous Vide: Part of the challenge of living with a molecular biologist is that she took favors "well done" - all those damn microbes need to scream in death before she feels safe devouring it. Tell her she needs a more robust biome. Medium rare will help. If all bacteria die at 140 I seriously doubt many survive 130-135. Seems like too much work. I can cook a great steak pan searing/roasting, sous vide and a sear, or indirect then reverse sear on a grill.

    ::: There are six rounds of the tournament, and the sisters have to co-exist in a given round, to meet in it. They co-exist in the first round, where they have a 1/63 chance to meet, by the logic that wherever the first sister is placed in the 64 spots, the second has a 1/63rd chance of being in opposition to her spot. Thus if the sisters co-exist in a round, they have a 1/(n-1) chance of meeting in that round, where n is the number of competitors in that round. If they do not meet, then the chance of both advancing is .5 * .5. So the chance they both advance to the next round, and meet there, is (.5^2) * (1/31). The chance they do not meet there and advance to the third round and meet there is (.5^(2 * 2)) * 1/15. Next round you get (.5^(2 * 3)) * 1/7, and so on. Sum the probabilities for the total chance they ever meet. :::

    Don't think I'd proclaim him KOTH just yet, I've never seen quartzite or granite used as working countertops for fudge, especially not in commercial candy making operations. They use marble. Period. BTW, did you know fudge will set faster on a warm marble slab than on a cold one?

    @kluurs said in The Biggest Crisis Since WWII?: It's supposed to have now killed more in the US than the 1918 pandemic. From another perspective, it has killed more US citizens than all of our nation's wars since its inception - so kind of a big thing. China lady make good bug. You likee?

    @mik said in The Realignment: @renauda said in The Realignment: "CA Recall Shows Radicalized Whites Dragging Dems to Left, as Working-Class Voters of All Races Flee to GOP" Interesting how it is in the USA that the issue of race invariably finds its way into a given report or narrative. Race seems to be uniquely American for this is not the first time the blue collars have been exchanged for blue shirts in the pursuit of political nirvana Race or COVID. Pick yer poison. COVID will soon be a footnote in US history, the other poison, race, is on a par in America with class struggle that not all that long ago characterized Europe's social malaise. It seems peculiar to the US as it is not nearly as prevalent or part of the narrative in this country or, it would seem, elsewhere in the Americas.

    Here’s the thing, from conception the Fetus has a distinct and separate genetic code. It is not “her body - her choice” it is another person’s body.

    lol FBI. So smart group of people. Totally objective too. Which TDS sufferer totally subverted the mission of the agency while blowing his load on the face of a progressive white female coworker again? Peter Stroke? Maybe that’s just his porn name.
