I can't think of a good reason as to why people would want housing to be a good investment except if their own wealth depends on it or they want to preserve the wealthy character o…

I had a similar experience last year applying for an evisa. I think pay off the issue was related to the pages timing out before the extremely slow server somewhere in India could …

It's a bad approach, it can still see the / directory, and eventually you want to give it sudo privilege or act as the root user to get anything done. Yet I really wouldn't trust t…

It's frustrating how some people insist on prefixing reddit URLs with "old", requiring everybody else who opens their link to load the wrong page, edit it, and reload the modern ve…

It's just a question of having enough VRAM+RAM to fit the model into memory.

There are non-steroidal OTC supplements that are specifically anti-catabolic instead of anabolic like HMB[1], a metabolite of the amino acid leucine, and also widely used in the fi…

It's not as if Android offers anything either. Third party tools like syncthing can be used to backup the camera folder, but the root android folder is protected against copying be…

I wish we could go back to this uncomplicated UX. I just spent literally 2 hours setting up a brand new Epson ET-2850 printer for my dad. I'm quite disgusted at how slow, bloated a…

I'm only seeing this now, sorry. First I'm not a doctor, so I can't give medical advice, certainly not if you believe you are already predisposed to something. I would say that the…

Delusional technohopium to cope with the fact that we are only increasing the rate at which we are annihilating biodiversity globally. Just today the government of Namibia announce…

Of course, there exists the whole field of photobiomodulation. Red light therapy (630/670/810/830/850/1060 nm red and NIR light) helps the eye in the morning (see Prof Glen Jeffery…

I wonder if we did a Fourier Transform of the power signal, would the 20 W appear in the DC bin as an anomaly?

The destruction, death and injuries seen in occupied Ukraine are already absolutely equivalent to nuclear war, minus the radiation. Also, I imagine the next nuclear weapons to be u…

Absolutely. But it is responsible for our weak response, not our weak/undprepared militaries.

The NL have contributed massively. I never meant that they didn't, I was selecting some powerful, random countries with still untapped resources to counter your comment that implie…

I don't agree with your comment. Unpreparedness is one thing, but you paint a picture of weakness and reliance. Why are there no Dutch F-35s or French warships in Ukraine? Where ar…

As someone not super familiar with security research, this work and the associated report must have cost millions of euro in experienced engineering man-hours to write, right? You …

> Subjects were randomized to receive 25 g protein (25PRO), 100 g protein (100PRO), or a placebo (0PRO) following a single bout of resistance-type exercise. Wait, so the 25g protei…

Is there actually a meaningful difference between EV efficiency worth considering though? In contrast to ICEs, most electric motors are already very efficient and the difference co…

Manipulating the mTOR pathway involves making a trade-off based on your preferred type of death: on the one hand we have frailty, hip fractures, muscle wasting, etc, and in the oth…

No it shouldn't have any such obligation, because it explicitly stated minors were not to enter on its front page. Do you expect car manufacturers to make driving safe for children…

It was the purest form of social media before social media was even a thing. In an age where it's increasingly more difficult for people to meet a lot of others accessibly, it's a …

But phones are manufactured regardless, so why not let the people who are currently in the market for a new device get something current? The yearly release cycle isn't meant to be…

How much of this is because European salaries, land value, often pales in comparison to the US? It seems extremely unlikely to me that as Europeans we are 7x more efficient than th…
