If I were Linus I'd stay as far the fuck away from any investigation as possible if for no other reason than having anything to do with it would sow doubt in any conclusion favorable to LTT.
No one should trust the conclusions of an investigation paid for by the accused any more than you should trust an inspector that was hired by the real estate agent selling you a house and for the exact same reasons.

According to who?
Tbh I don't trust anyone that reacted the way Linus did in response to GN's investigation or that only changes things once they get called out on it publically.

One supports Israel no matter what and the other supports Israel no matter what and wants LGBT people dead, tried to overthrow our government, killed over a million americans by ignoring epidemiologists' warnings and guidance about dealing with covid and packed the supreme court resulting in women losing rights restored to them 50 years ago. Dont fucking tell me the two are the same.

I feel like the fact they paid the same party that investigated them is an obvious enough conflict of interest to dismiss this out of hand. Whether the report is actually trustworthy or not, there is an incentive to come to a conclusion that aligns with whomever paid them and that alone should make people question the conclusions being made.

What should happen is not always what does happen. There are tons of examples of brain dead companies and rich people buying companies they dont understand and then ruining them because of that.

Realistically none aside from testing that our models are good.
Best case scenario the particle accelerators we use to make them take months, years just to produce a couple atoms that last maybe a few seconds then decay to something much less stable

The island of stability isn't going to result in anything most people would consider "stable" i.e no Naquadah or Trinium. It could however, result in new superheavy isotopes that last seconds instead of milliseconds or microseconds like what would otherwise be expected.
The island of (relative) stability results from the filling of nuclear shells similarly to how noble gases are as unreactive as they are in chemical reactions because their (electron) shells are full.

When I was a kid, we had a patch of it in the back yard and mom would make desserts out of it. Or wed just eat it raw.

People probably instantly took their meaning to be mundane beans eg. pinto. Adzuki beans or at least the red paste desserts made from them, I bet most people here haven't tried but would like.

Ive tried the juice which tasted weakly citrusy with a strong nutty flavor. Is that anything like the fresh fruit tastes?

Botanically it isn't a fruit but it is a culinary fruit because of how it is used.

Google tells me asian pears are basically the same and if thats true, then they're one of the best fruits I have had.

I remember getting one when one of the supermarkets around here carried them and theyre huge fruits. Probably 20 pounds of fruit that we ate from it and by the time we were done I never wanted to see another one again lol. I wouldn't mind trying them again now but probably maybe just a pound not a whole fruit.

The original intent was to learn about fruits and veggies that most americans would be unaware of or dont have access to eg. brazilian grapes, ube, drumstick, adzuki beans etc. but good point.

Yeah... there are a lot of south american fruits that dont survive being transported here. eg. cashew fruit. Ive had the juice but not the fruit itself.

You know what is really messed up about the publishing system we have? There are people out there that defend it. They claim the high costs are a "feature" that prevents fake/garbage papers from being published. Which best case scenario, shows that the emperor is stark naked.

Vision is alive. His body is composed of living tissue woven together with the mind stone and vibranium. That whole speel by Stark arguing that vision could only lift the hammer in the same way an elevator would was him rationalizing why his creation was worthy but he wasn't. The whole point of the scene where vision lifted the hammer for the first time was to show that he could be trusted. Because at that point, almost everyone had their doubts.
I just wonder if it actually did get worse or it just seems like that because as an adult you have a lot more on your plate than you did when you were a kid/teen
Usually its something computer related and every time it happens, something about fixing something without knowing why it works now bothers me almost as much as never fixing whatever it is.
eg. I was obsessed with Teenage mutant ninja turtles as a kid
I have been working on a minecraft mod pack that has a mechanic where the player can fly between different worlds via the elytra. eg. the overworld -> moon -> mars etc. I have a few different directions I can take Mars' design: * Dead world with remnants of the extinct martian civilization. Environmental storytelling used to convey a mystery to be solved by the player * HG Wells' war of the worlds inspired with the martian statues referencing their 3 colored pupiled eyes on a villager model and red weed plants growing underground that infect plants like trees and spread on corrupted dirt (basically dirt that has had blood within 4 blocks of it) and eventually turns white and dies if its in one of the overworld dimensions * harmless/benevelant living martians based on the barsoon series Or some combination of those Thoughts?
It was a phone call. That's literally it. I spent months procrastinating making a phone call that ended up being short and virtually painless.
Every time its a 5 minute borderline painless task that my brain has built up to be the equivalent of deciding which finger Id prefer to lose.
My childhood best friend is ADHD, all but 1 of my other childhood friends is ADHD and about half of my current friends that I hang out with are either ADHD, on the autism spectrum or likely to be but as yet undiagnosed.
I dont mean depression or anxiety (this feels different), I mean feeling like you never really recharge, like youve never gotten time off ever. Which I think is partly due to a tendency to put literally 100% into something until you feel fried, move on to the next thing rinse repeat. Even "down time" doesnt really feel like down time because I am stuck between either boredom, working on yet another thing or thinking about things in general.
I noticed that after switching to boost for lemmy the downvote count no longer shows and out of morbid curiosity I like to know the upvote/downvote count where it is tracked. Is there a way to restore those vote counts in the app?
Two lines of zenscript did this. I thought I removed the code that spawned these trees in but forgot that there were two other lines that also needed to be removed or it would default to spawning them in any biome where oak trees spawn. i.e any biome fulfilling certain criteria like forests. And I had disabled BOP (which supplied the leaf blocks) which resulted in tree tweaker defaulting to dirt as the leaf block. And because trees can spawn on dirt, itd stack one tree on top of another on top of another etc. until it ran out of space and time to do so during terrain gen. The result was this fugly tree stack forest a good 20 trees tall
This week mine was homemade soda. Fermented sodas, citric acid + bicarbonate sodas, different juices and flavors like lime + lemon + cherry and pomegranate or mango peach or cola (homemade knock off)
