I always understood it as your immune system gets weaker from being in the cold and makes it easier for viruses and such to propogate in your body. We’re constantly fighting off minor infections and disease, and thankfully our immune systems are pretty strong…cold does not help it.
I’d say this one is sort of true…in the right context.

…can’t have these immortals running around all willy-nilly. For sure that’s haram.
- Comment on Taliban leader bans Wi-Fi in an Afghan province to 'prevent immorality' 2 weeks ago:
I did as well. Didn’t even cross my mind that it was wrong. Just went, “It’s about on par with all the other goofy shit they believe and have laws against. Why not ban it because of potential immortality. Sure”

It’s a dyeball (Pisolithus arhizus).
Everyone was pretty close.

I think your are 100% correct. Thank you!

I don’t know. The ball on the left is the cross section of the inside. I cut it through the middle.
- Comment on I keep 4 weeks ago:
The item in the left IS the internal cross section. I cut the mushroom in half.

- Comment on Given gelatin's source, it makes more sense as a savory dish than a dessert 5 weeks ago:
Omg. Yeah. I would never attempt to extract it myself. It’s just bone broth at that point for me.
- Comment on Given gelatin's source, it makes more sense as a savory dish than a dessert 5 weeks ago:
I use it to make edible gummies. You can’t taste the gelatin at all. It’s a cup of fruit juice, a cup of infused oil, 10 drops of flavoring oil, 5 packs of gelatin powder, and a small pack of flavored gelatin.
It’s just tastes fruity and wonderful. I don’t get any meaty taste, and I’m using arguably more gelatin than most people would.

Yeah. Terrine is a better generalized word for it.
- Comment on Given gelatin's source, it makes more sense as a savory dish than a dessert 5 weeks ago:
More sense? I don’t agree with you. Gelatin is a blank slate. Has pretty much zero flavor and can take on the taste of pretty much whatever you put into it. It gels up. That’s pretty much it, it’s up to you to decide what you want to do with it.
That said, it’s very versatile cooking ingredient. Is great in soups and stocks. Making gummies. Making gels, custards, pudding. It’s great as a binder. Not a great emulsifier, but you can do it with enough blending, however it breaks at higher temperatures.

Terrine in general is fantastic as charcuterie. I’d be totally fine with head cheese. I get that the process is gross, but it tastes great. Kind of like pate.
The whole process of farm to table is gross if you think about it.
- Comment on Imgur's Community Is In Full Revolt Against Its Owner 5 weeks ago:
Oh, they have their own memes, comics, famous users/posters, copypasta, etc, except it feels more like your stuck on r/all with a smaller userbase. Comments are, I believe still locked at 140 characters, so conversation is severely limited. It was fun - I was an Imgur user for several years before I realized that Reddit was really everything I wanted from Imgur. Literally haven’t gone back since I switched to Reddit about 10 years ago

Is the US, you can easily find Hookah bars all around our cities and suburbs. It’s mostly a young person thing, but yeah…not an uncommon thing around here at least.

I’ve tried to figure out what your typo for “Turkish” was supposed to be. I can only assume “Turok”.

Well, if we take the average amount of water loss per message at 0.3 mL, and the average water consumption (low end) at 2.6 L per day per person, we’re looking at 8,666 messages a day.
You’d have to send out 3.163 million messages in a year to equate to the amount of water someone needs for a year.
You’d have to send out approximately 250 million messages before your looking at the low end of the amount of water you’d need to keep someone alive for their entire lives.

Are you taking this picture from your bunker?
This is the most depressing lighting I’ve ever seen.
Seriously, it looks like your taking this picture from The Backrooms.

I mean…with enough lube, and depending on how much that asshole hungers, it can “own” really anything that it wants. It’s more of a matter of if you can survive it.
- Comment on Like clockwork, Peacock is raising subscription prices again 2 months ago:
Mate, there are so many free streaming sites out there. Just make sure to have a really good ad blocker turned on. That said, you may have to find a good few that work with your browser, and to find the shows you want.
We’ve cancelled every single subscription service that we had. We’ve been pirating content for over a year now, and get to watch every show, from every streaming service, in HD, the day after they are released. Never turning back. Next eventual step will be to sail the high seas. :)

This is the first time I’ve ever been able to do one in my entire life. I’ve tried for years. It’s like I just unlocked an achievement. I now have to go dig up all my magic eye books. I will say though, I’m floored by how 3d it all looks. The depth is surprising.
Also surprised by just how easy it is to get knocked out of the illusion by just barely tilting the screen.

Approximately 500,000 years ago, when someone made a tiny spear. They just didn’t know it was an arrow at the time.
I mean what is an arrow, but a much smaller spear?

That’s a bad faith argument. No body wants that. Just because it exists doesn’t mean I’m defending it. The alternative is letting a paste-brained Putin-wannabe become King.

Try self-teaching yourself programming If you like math, you’ll greatly enjoy being able to apply it.
