You rock!

This is 100% bard hijinks.

Does getting cold hands and feet from watching terrifying movies count?

They’re from Chile, it’s actually possible!

Do you meditate? This is pretty much my meditative state.

They’re going to have plenty of faces to feed their young.

Why not both?

That’s social conditioning, not biology.

×25% gives you 1/4 the original value, whereas +100% is double the original value, let’s say 8/4 to keep it consistent. ×125% (in case a 1 is missing) is still only 5/4 the original value.

Is there a typo in your comment?

I did exactly that. There are ways to even pull your car off the cell network so they can’t actively harvest your driving data

That’s assuming someone is selling their old Tesla to buy a new Tesla. Hopefully they won’t. I own one and I wouldn’t buy one again.

Oh shit, you’re right! I had no idea, good catch.

It’s really both, neurons communicate electrochemically. Neurons establish a voltage difference across their membrane, typically positive outside, negative inside, by concentrating ions on one side or the other. In a single neuron, the action potential (signal) results in the electric polarity of the cell membrane switching to negative outside, positive inside, with the change in gradient cascading down the length of the axon as ions are allowed to flow across the membrane by voltage-gated ion channels. After depolarization, ions are actively and selectively pumped to either side of the membrane, repolarizing it.

There’s a lot more to it than that but it’s 100% charge dependent. The change in charge is mediated by the flow of ions across a membrane instead of the flow of electrons through a conductor, hence why it’s slower.

I’m in my mid forties with no children and being asleep again is pretty much my daily goal. I can’t imagine how you cope with small kids.

Because it’s the primary driver of climate change.

Sulfur hexafluoride is far worse than methane, why do you care about methane?

I came here to suggest the same thing. Ego death is freedom.

A good friend of ten years ghosted me after his wife left him. My wife and I helped him through a lot of it, then he just went incommunicado. I’m still not sure why as he won’t return my calls, texts, or emails.

Pistachios, because almonds aren’t actually nuts. They’re drupes

Edit: they’re both drupes!

“The legal ones are welcome” is the “there will be exceptions for rape and incest” of anti-immigration rhetoric. It was always a lie meant to placate those with a few remaining shreds of a conscience.

Get out of here with your “nuance” and “critical thinking skills”!

/s, great job, keep up the good work
