There’s a lot more to it than “they just do” we just don’t know yet because there’s actually a lot we don’t understand about the fundamental properties of, well, fundamental particles.

See the higgs boson as for why matter has mass. We used to say “inertia is a property of matter” but some clever fucks figured out why and then proved it.

How many was too many?
I’ve got birds and while they’ve slowed laying I’m still eating 3-4 eggs a day and can’t say I’ve noticed any ill effects

I have about 9 crowns currently, and my wife is a dental assistant with implant and surgery experience. I asked about this one time and got this explanation.

Implants are a highly invasive, long, and expensive process, like over 10k each expensive, and months of procedures and recovery. Granted, usually implants aren’t done to healthy teeth, but they usually have to build up the bone material after extracting the tooth and let that heal, drill into the bone and set the post then let that heal, then fit the implant and adjust everything because your teeth have been moving while it’s been healing.
One of the reasons the dentist doesn’t want to just pull a tooth and do an implant is the even when root canaled, that tooth is a better support than the implant post would be, and the implant is a lot more work.

The process of fillings, then crown, then root canal and crown don’t usually happen in sequence like that, and if you do preventative maintenance you can keep a tooth with a filling from ever needing to be crowned or root canal’d

You wanna know what’s a hell of a lot cheaper and easier than getting any dental work? Flossing and brushing!

I have hated flossing my entire life because it hurts my fingers to wrap the floss enough not to slide, but a couple months back I discovered I could tie a figure 8 knot and make a loop to pull tension on and now find i can’t stand the feeling of anything in-between my teeth so I end up flossing after every meal.

Moral of the story is: floss and brush your teeth and you won’t need to worry about crowns or implants. Always before bed and especially after anything with sugar or starches

A friend of mine introduced me to this channel and I love it. They do such amazing historical recreation of so many different aspects of pre-modern life. One of my favorites

Stretch, focus on muscle groups in your hands or arms or shoulders or neck if you can’t get up, back or hips or calfs or ankles if you’re standing

It’s about direction of rotation, does the wrench turn left or turn right, there isn’t the same notion of up and down / in and out because that portion happens when the bolt or nut turns. Also, anything rotation is moving the opposite direction on the other side of the rotation, so if you have to tighten a screw that turns towards you it’s the opposite

I remember having a demo for giants: citizen Kabuto, it was a weird and fun third person shooter. The thing I remember most is the initial quest giver guy and the way he would say “huuungry” something about it stuck in my brain

The reason it’s relevant is that most working people do not earn salaries, they earn hourly rates. I’m a welding engineer earning a salary, working with maintenance men and welders and operators who all earn hourly rates. Every company I’ve ever worked for has both salary and hourly and also an HR department.

The situation you are describing does not align with the vast majority of working people’s experiences.

Not defending either side, but how often do hourly employees get raises based on performance at your wife’s company? You say performance should lead to salary increases, but what about the majority of people who only make hourly rates?

Should be holding a flood, there’s even an outtake from one of the voice actors.

Fired for any reason is “at will employment” you can leave for any reason but also we can fire you for anything that isn’t protected.

“Right to work” is even worse than that, it means that you get all the benefits the union faught and clawed for without having to pay dues. As in you have a “right to work” without any pesky interference between you as an individual and the multimillion dollar company

Pretty sure almost all the matter we can interact with does produce blackbody radiation

I used to live about an hour away, bernheim is actually one of the nicer forests that I’ve hiked around they have lots of beautiful trails and wooded areas

I have an air purifier that is stupid bright, I tried painters tape but ended up using the aluminum foil tape to block the lights

The first Dark Souls was 2011. Diablo was released in 1997. World of Warcraft was 2004 and while you didn’t quite drop all your stuff and money you die you did have to run back to your corpse to keep from having all your stuff degrade and cost a bunch of money. The first Sonic was 1991 and getting hit makes you drop all your “money” and have to pick it back up.

The first ones I can think of is legend of Zelda and final fantasy, but I think there was also Adventure for the Atari before those even. The first Assassin’s Creed was 2007, Adventure was 1980

IThere’s a pretty simple way to test the alarm, make it go off when your awake and waiting for it. Say the current time is 11:57, set the alarm for 12:00 and sit and wait for it to go off.

It’s really just poker solitaire with a bunch of math added to flavorful bonus cards, if you’re not really into poker, solitaire, or math it isn’t going to be the right game for you.

I have a buddy that hates RNG, mostly plays shooter games, he hates poker in all its forms because of the randomness but I feel like learning to deal with probably and chance are really good lessons that apply to broader life.

One of my favorite science facts: Because of how the strength of gravity diminishes as you get further away and stronger as you get closer, when you approach to within arms length of another person (approx 1m) the gravitational attraction between the two masses of your bodies can exceed the gravitational attraction between your body and the sun at any given time.
