I once watched this nature documentary named “Princess Mononoke” and can confirm that wild pigs continue to live on even after physical death.

TBF, fuck calculus. Only nerds like calculus.

My experiences have led me to believe the type of math someone is good at depends on their field (or what math they use regularly).
Some biologists are excellent statisticians, far better than me. I’ve also learned to never trust those same biologists with unit conversions that a chemist would consider incredibly simple.

Not to mention the glare from reflecting off an icy/wet road. This would truly be a nice feature.

Just like our high school campuses. The national parks will be catching up with the rest of the country. It’s about time we bring them into the glorious future!

I have an incredibly happy sundew that doesn’t mind the colder temperatures by my windows in the winter at all.
I took a big round-bottom flask, threw in some wet sphagnum moss, added the sundew, and capped it with parafilm. Zero upkeep besides an occasional turn and it’s thrown up multiple flowers. It’s an artificial marsh with the sun causing the water to circulate and keep the humidity high while it’s quite low outside the flask.
This has worked well for other carnivorous plants too…until a cat decides to yeet itself onto that window ledge and knocks everything over.

You need to treat them nicely and maybe show a bit of romance. Poems, flowers, even a printed picture of flowers, something nice that will last is all it takes and your instruments will work perfectly for you. Each person may need to contribute individually to the shrine.
I swear, some damned tech came in on a PM and removed my poem from my favorite HPLC and now it’s been acting up for me nonstop.

Yeah, some companies seem to be allergic to standards, hence the need for the final disclaimer.
- Comment on Temporary Carbon Storage 🙃 6 months ago:
Oh, this shit is funny!
Offset is a platform that aims to generate high integrity, premium carbon credits from industrial sabotage and direct actions. At the heart of our work is an innovative new methodology for quantifying the climate benefits of political actions that publically disrupt carbon flows.
…
Our Approach
Carbon offsets apply the logic of capitalism to atmospheric interactions. This logic assumes that all activities on earth can be quantified and abstracted, and therefore exchanged. Offsets produce the capacity to outsource the effects of one’s consumption—at the scale of the individual, the corporation, or even the nation state—to someone, somewhere else, even to the generations of the future. In short, many existing carbon offset markets act to maintain a status quo rather than address root causes of the climate catastrophe.
In contrast, the Offset platform includes a registry of alternative offsets that focus on social exchanges and political actions in order to contribute to a program of highly financialized radical change.
…
Institutional Support
Offset (version 0.1) was commissioned by the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne, for Data Relations.

C or AC = clear all CE = clear entry
That said, there are variations based on brand and model.

The best arachnophobia mode is Satisfactory turning all of the spiders into ridiculous cat heads.

The professor hides white text on a white background to catch potential cheaters. The actual assignment is written in black text. If the student has followed the instructions that are written in white, this is a good indication that they may have cheated, because human eyes won’t see the white text against a white background, while a computer program writing a paper for the student will see the white text and follow the additional instructions.

Wow, you were lucky! I grew up only knowing one type of knife because that’s all my dad could afford. Imagine growing up in a house where the whole family had to share one knife for both bread and poop!
