  • Still not as fun as spin up/spin down quarks. Are they spinning? Not at all. And Charm quarks. What the hell does that even mean, science nerds? We also have the strange quark... aren't they all really strange or have you just completely given up?

  • 18 years for woman who hoped to destroy Baltimore power grid and spark a race war
  • Idk, man. There's a ton of deranged supremacists in federal prison and I'd imagine she'd be welcome within their ranks with open arms given the gravity of the conviction and previous charges. As much as I'd also like these people to have a really poor time in prison, even by the already shitty prison standards, the best we could expect for the public is just to keep these slugs away from any and all people and resources they could use to do this again. Our county is in a desperately poor state.

    Edit: typos

  • where did you know about lemmy and why did you start using it
  • I did exactly the same. I found lemmy through a reddit post about alternatives to Reddit. And after 13 years as a daily reddit user, once RIF went down, I haven't gone back.

    I do wish we'd get more traffic with the science communities but I've still noticed slow and steady growth since then.

  • Coke rule
  • This may sounds nuts but i have a simple formula I like to follow. A Coke with no ice but still cold or a Pepsi with ice. A Pepsi without ice or a coke with ice tastes different.

  • i'm 40 years old and just had ALL my teeth extracted in one go. The pain is excruciating. Any tips for pain relief?
  • Your doctor will only prescribe opiates in the most extreme cases? I'm not buying it at all. Getting all your teeth removed is under no uncertain terms a MAJOR case of extreme pain and precisely what they should be used for. Also, you're a fool thinking that taking them after a surgery like this will lead to a "hard drug habit." Also, no mention of any antibiotics? Sounds like you don't want to fall into a hard successful recovery habit either. And last but not least... An oral surgeon removing all teeth at once?!?!

    I also read your comment about this being because of free healthcare and I call bullshit on that as well. There's only two possible explanations for this predicament you're in. The first is that this is a completely bullshit story which I'm leaning towards. Second is that you went to a unlicensed and illegal place that did this procedure. This would make the most sense with your admission of a complete lack of communication and proper prescriptions.

  • Is there anything you've *never* done, that wouldn't be believed when sharing this with others?
  • I've never been stung by a bee either! I've had a wasp get me a few times but bees and I have a unspoken truce, I guess. We have carpender bees all around our house and my wife hates them but I enjoy watching them have those valiant mid-air dog fights. Those little bastards can scrap. They never bother or dive bomb me but sometimes they get curious and kinda hover around me, presumably doing a bee's version of a vibe check. I dont run or swat at them and they just peace out after maybe 15-20 seconds and then ignore me next time Im outside in "their" territory. ... My wife on the other hand, swats, screams and runs from them and they'll straight up go after her. She clearly does not pass the vibe check. It's wild.

  • Music choices while elevated (9/10)
  • Dude, you just described my playlist. Lol. 10/10 so far. Another genre I love to listen to when I'm smoking is 90s west coast gangsta rap. "The Chronic" (1991), "Dogg Food" by The Dogg Pound (1995) and also their 2002 self titled album are absolute bangers. The tracks with Lady of Rage just kick like few other tracks can. You prerty much cant go wrong with anything from Death Row Records. Same goes for anything from Ruthless Records (Eazy-E's Lable) like Bone Thug's first 2 albums "Creepin' in Ah Come Up" (1994) and "East 1999" (1995) also kick major ass. Too $hort's "Get in Where You Fit In" (1993) is fantastic. He's from Oakland, CA so its not quite the LA sound but just as good. It's the only time where that music actually hits my ears in just the right way and It's just that sub genre as far as rap music goes in my life. But that who area is straight up prime ganja smoking music.

    Lastly, check out the reggae band, 10ft Ganja Plant. All of their albums are fantastic. "Skycatcher" is a good album to start with and "Midnight Landing" for a more dub/roots reggae.

  • Bungie announces mass layoffs, 220 roles to be "eliminated"
  • Guys! Guys, please think of the poor shareholders tho. Aren't they the real victims here? My heart break this evening knowing they almost had to endure very slightly reduced profits this quarter. Thank God there was something that could be done to prevent such a horrific situation.
