Your statement is equally hyperbolic and unthinking. For one, "they managed the entirety of Australia" implies uniformity and political unity which did not exist. Australia is huge. Some unlucky groups in the interior had to dig t

Yeah, I balked when they made the first cut with such a criterion, that doesn't make sense and probably isn't what Amazon intended.

Focal lengths slimming the face / tilting the scales towards heavier women (pun intended) is an interesting theory. But natural T increase? This sets off my quack-o-meter.

Yeah, the author was not quite as bureaucracy-savvy as you, it's clear. You do realize that the whole study was nothing but matching the results of a questionnaire that was already being used against interviews that were already being

Well, he said a lot of graphics cards. I plugged in 20 at 1kwh each. Trying to charitably interpret OP's tone of outrage, which seemed misplaced to me.

Back of envelope suggests he was stealing $20k per year in power, probably not more than that. Considering this was 2011, the return on that $20k could have been gigantic . Reimbursing them would have been a drop in the bucket, if he could

The threshold at 45 probably corresponds to endgames where the kings have to walk around the board to take care of pawns.

This is what you said: > There are a few compounds (like fentanyl or LSD) where the dosages are so small and the compound so potent that 10-25% makes a difference but for the majority, precision isn't that critical. As in, typical d

No, I mean they had a chart in the article that says Log(10) = 1. Looks like it's been removed.

This is just throwing around a lot of irrelevant details to obscure the fact that your original statement violates the dimensional analysis smell test -- I could make a shitty prodrug of LSD where the threshold dose is 1g instead of 50ug, b

IME bad trips are mostly determined by how neurotic the tripper is. If you can accurately say that a 25% increase causes a 10% increase in bad trips, you must have quite a lot of experience. I at least know that if some people take one tab

But what you said was still totally wrong, regardless of whether you're talking about toxicity or anything else. LSD is not so finicky that a 25% change in the dose makes a noticeable difference -- most people would be hard pressed to

Excuse me, index. A dimensionless quantity. Nothing to do with potency. And you could hardly pick worse drugs to spread misinformation about.

> There are a few compounds (like fentanyl or LSD) where the dosages are so small and the compound so potent that 10-25% makes a difference but for the majority, precision isn't that critical. Wrong. Therapeutic ratio, not dosage.

I think molly is stupid, and would never try it. BUT molly-induced brain damage is usually hyponatremia, or a subtler form of damage to the serotonin system. not stroke.

Do you know what a stroke is?

> mold, some of which can definitely be neurotoxic. Nope. Bad for you in general. But no evidence of bathroom mold that's particularly neurotoxic. If you google it, you find mostly court cases (not a good sign).
