How the Germans during their Afrika campaign discovered this bacterium to treat dysentery, which was killing more soldiers then the British troops did.

Elemental iodine in solution with iodide forms tri-iodide, which is perfectly fine to consume. This is what Lugol's solution is and it has an unlimited shelf life.

I use root to force a 44.1 kHz sample rate for the audio to avoid resampling of my lossless music, which is all in 44.1 kHz. The difference is noticeable even over Bluetooth with a…

For Linux the list is here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sforshee/wir... It also shows the maximum power (in mW or dB) for the channels, which is also key to get…

> Does this work in encoded videos? For older encodings such as MPEG2, as used in DVDs, it does work. For newer codecs with higher compression I can't extract a heartbeat signal an…

This is dealt with by smoothing the spectrum in a way to preserves the power density. The constructive and destructive interference then cancel each other out.

My router uses 8 Watt from the mains, regardless of how much traffic it's handling. It also has an ECO mode that doesn't actually lower the power consumption.

When playing FLAC music over aptX HD, the next step for improvement is to avoid any resampling. The music is generally at 44.1 kHz and the default for Android is 48 kHz. It require…

For example, the entire entry for "mass formation" was deleted. The Dutch version still exists: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massavorming

On the photo of the Moskva I can't really see a missile impact.

It's that the array access of numpy is surprisingly slow compared to a Python list: lst = [0] %timeit lst[0] = 1 33.9 ns ± 0.0415 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10000000 …

Another great option is to mount the remote file system with SSHFS.

Other lossy compression methods generally happen in the frequency domain and, depending on the type of music, can introduce audible distortions. This preprocessor on the other hand…

Here in the Netherlands there's also a sharp increase in the excess mortality that can't be explained by COVID deaths. https://www.rivm.nl/monitoring-sterftecijfers-nederland

Aptx is actually pretty good, certainly for ear pods. It's a time-domain codec which is great for acoustical instruments (the frequency-domain codecs can fail there, AAC too). The …

A key feature of Kodi for me is that it syncs the TV frame rate to the video that is playing. I don't know any other players on Linux that do that.
