YSK: Using dairy milk after being tear gassed or pepper sprayed doesn't provide more relief and has slightly increased infection risk. Use water or saline instead
  • Nitpicking: the fermentation is done by a fungus, specifically a yeast strain. The fermentation process stops when you introduce oxygen, aka open the fermentation tank, or when the sugar in the wort is depleted. The yeast then just becomes inactive and you can potentially restart the fermentation at home by putting sugar in the beer and sealing it airtight. Most commercial beers remove the yeast through filtering or pasteurizing or both tho, so that would probably only work for craft beer. And it would make the result taste terrible I assume.

    Some bacteria do not tolerate alcohol at all and will die from beer, but generally beer is not a disinfectant. Vodka isn't either by the way, still too low levels of alcohol. But it works better than beer.

  • Cryptic Currency
  • Fiat money is money that is not backed by precious metals and since gold standards have been abolished in every country, technically every currency is fiat. Fiat, in Latin, is the third-person singular present active subjunctive form of the verb fio which means "to become" or "to happen", for example the phrase "let there be light" would be "fiat lux" in Latin.

  • I consider myself a flexitarian, I adopt puppies, give them a good life till they’re about 2 years old, then humanely slaughter them and eat them. The stuff I don’t eat I backfeed to the next round of puppies.

    I do the puppy thing as well, but I don't eat them (they're nasty). I just like killing puppies.

  • Health food is anything that isn't processed to hell and back.

    Impossible is just alternative junk food. Like vapes are for cigarettes. Healthier still means crap. I'd probably just use mushrooms or tofu as a patty if I wanted an alternative to beef.

  • Start ups when that VC funding kicks in
  • My last job offered free beer after 4pm on fridays.

    It was smart as fuck if you think about it. For the small price of a few crates of beer, you got 20+ people talking in their free time, and on the weekend, without additional pay. It was officially off-work but since most of your coworkers were there, there was a lot of work-related exchange going on.
