As a computer scientist, I totally understand the reluctance to publish certain information. I am admittedly not “smart” on biology or other science topics, which is why I’ll never claim to have an understanding.
And it’s why I take headlines with a grain of salt. Basically, until death is what I’d consider forever. And I’d imagine they’d be transferred to whatever decomposes us. Like how mercury is very prevalent in large fish. But that’s an assumption.
My sarcastic comment is Isn’t that implied in the designator “forever chemical”?
But my real response is: The article doesn’t say. And I’m all for a healthy dose of skepticism. Does forever really mean forever? Or do the people studying this just not actually know yet? I’m fairly ignorant on the actual research on this.
I’d love to read a study explains it. I’ve only read stories like this. They outline we have a problem, and the more articles I read on PFAS, they seem pretty unavoidable. I was reading one that basically said it’s in our rain as well, so even the paper straws you get at restaurants contain them.
Probably not, or at least to the people who could make a difference.
The life long suffering and consequences of pollution this brings to people - This is a horrible situation. I’m honestly surprised there’s not better reporting of the people dying from this.
I remember the smoke from the Canadian fires. I couldn’t go outside (not that inside was better) and there was no getting a workout in without inducing burning in my lungs.
Only one who’s a clown is the one who doesn’t have the self reflection to understand everyone wrongs someone else in life. Life isn’t black and white. Stay safe out there and be kind.
Do you have access to actually launch missiles at things when you’re trying to be a monster?
Because unless you do, it makes your point really silly. Most individuals don’t have an option to launch a missile to be a monster. But I know some people who absolutely would use one (or more) if they had access.
People are monsters. Period. Nobody is perfect. And I’m sure you’ve justified some actions that are less than pure in your lifetime. Just because you don’t launch missiles at people doesn’t make it better.
War sucks, civilians loose while the elite get more wealthy.
NASA deserves all the funding it’s gets and more.
Thanks for the PDF to the actual publication!
And a reminder that an even more evil corporation bought Monsanto in 2018: Bayer. Bayer is being hit with lawsuits for roundup and causing cancer.
Would be nice to see the families of these children in Brazil get their payday too. Even though nothing truly makes up for the loss.
Not a piracy answer, but email the author(s). Most are excited that someone is taking interest in their work and will gladly send you the paper.
How is this science relevant?
You just blew my mind with the baking soda!
MSG is amazing, never deserved the hate it got.
I don’t have any tips that most don’t already know. I cook with simple ingredients. I save and freeze a bit of stock and cook with stock where I can. It adds a bit of depth that oil/butter doesn’t.
For my stock, I’ll save vegetable scraps and freeze it until I have enough. Then boil it down for a few hours. Vegetable is fun to play with. You can add different flavors, and different elements depending on the vegetables you use. Mushrooms will have a unique umami.
Same with seafood stock, I’ll save shrimp shells and fish heads and boil (simmer?) it down. Chicken stock I just boil the bones down after I roast a chicken. For beef, same thing, I’ll roast the bones for more flavor and boil it down. Also I’ll add carrots and celery to the boil for more flavor.
In a similar thought, I love to use coconut oil when cooking when I want a sweeter taste. And finishing a dish with some sesame oil can add a really good flavor. (Sometimes I’ll lightly toss noodles in sesame oil after they’re cooked, or do the same with roasted veggies)
In Baltimore, they read The Banner. That’s Fenton’s new home after the sun went under. This site is def questionable.
Spoofing location will eventually earn you a ban if your not careful.
I’ve come to accept that it’s not great for privacy. If I’m not planning on playing for awhile, I’ll delete the app. But as a busy person who loves Pokémon it doesn’t have a huge time commitment so I can play when and how I want. It brings me joy so I keep it.
Pokémon Go is my last hold out of absolutely stupid amount of permissions needed to run an app. But I love the game, so I keep it There’s no real replacement within the Pokémon series. Of you want to play Pokémon specifically, and don’t want Go, you could get one of the games for switch.
I don’t know if any other app that would be like Pokémon Go. But I can say that you can limit some of the sharing by not enabling adventure sync. That asks you to share your location all the time in order to hatch eggs when your game isn’t specifically open. You can also avoid spinning sponsored stops/gyms.
You could also delete the app when you’re not playing, then download it when you want to play. Or you could buy a cheap phone(s) and use a hot spot to play the game. This will keep the game off your main device.
There’s not a ton you can do to limit the amount of permissions it asks for.
That means it’s working!
