She clearly had no idea which way the vectors point on the outside of a spinning sphere
I wonder if she ever played on a roundabout, being spun fast enough that holding on is barely enough

And a good teacher would have told you that water freezing is one of the weird cases, as water has a less dense solid form than its liquid form. Although even water is less dense at 2° than at 20°
There's good out there too. I was good at maths in school and was encouraged to do more advanced stuff
Minecraft has private servers (at least on Minecraft java) as well as their own server platform "Realms", also every client is also a server. Though the authentication system is a Microsoft account so that's likely to still be online well into the future
There's not much blue in the world other than sea and sky, and those have their own names
Humans have always had blue vision. Blue was the last primary colour named
You don't need to do a lot of enforcement to change that behaviour. And you can do the enforcement with red light cameras
A stuck pedal turns the steering towards the barrier? I think the driver had a stroke or heart attack and stopped steering
At 3.18pm on 10 May 2018, Stefan Meier lost control of his Model S on the A2 highway near the Monte Ceneri tunnel. Travelling at about 100kmh (62mph), he ploughed through several warning markers and traffic signs before crashing into a slanted guardrail. “The collision with the guardrail launches the vehicle into the air, where it flips several times before landing,” investigators would write later.
The driver crashed, it doesn't sound like it was in self driving mode.
They don't have a uniform
They are more different than any of the Englishes are from each other
My pixel set to Australian English works fine in metric. I presume you chose British English where they use miles rather than kilometres, of course that works for me as I also want Australian spellings
The most recent update to Libre Office reset my UI language to one I don't know well enough to recognise. I uninstalled and reinstalled it.
Indeed, but cheaper than enough batteries to cover those times
In the off grid home scale one I'd size and set the generator to run for several hours in a row to fully charge the battery on days when the battery was at a sufficiently low charge entering the night, at least that's what my current modelling suggests. Diesel gensets work best when running fully loaded for at least long enough to warm up
I guess at grid scale you find the sweet spot where most years the gas power station and batteries are balanced to provide cheapest power averaged over the year
The diagram shows that they fall short on winter mornings
My own modelling to decide what size battery I want for my house says it's easy almost every day, but when you have three rainy and overcast days in a row you need a battery far larger or an alternative. For me the alternative is the grid; at grid scale it's gas generators
This Nick Norwitz video presents the biochemical link between inflammation and anxiety
It made me wonder - is this part of the reported cool that you hear about in carnivore circles. Is it just (or maybe mostly) that the lifestyle prevents the bulk of inflammation and thus the anxiety that inflammation would have caused
A bit of my past, back in about 2003 - before I had eliminated sugar from my diet - I went to an all day event, got dehydrated and had a gout attack.
I mistook it for a foot injury from jumping down some stairs
But it happened again and nothing I had done could be blamed, so I ended up on allopurinol
Time passed, allopurinol worked. Then about COVID lockdown time I fell off keto and went back to eating junk, then in December 2022, just before Christmas I read The Fat Of The Land and went carnivore, calling it zero carb
So everything I read said there's no gout without sugar, so I stopped using allopurinol
Then in April this year I got foot pain. Not quite the classic big toe ball of the foot swelling but the next three toes' joint
So I blamed gout despite having no sugar for years
I got prescribed an anti inflammatory and it quickly cleared the problem
Then it happened again and I noticed the pattern, it was particular shoes. I cut my toe nails shorter and now those shoes don't compress my toes and cause toe pain
So I'm pretty sure again that gout needs sugar
Reversal being:
- I thought I had an injury but it was a gout attack when I ate junk
- I thought I had a gout attack but it was an injury while I was eating just meat
Yesterday I ran out of pemmican, so I bought steak. Scotch fillet is usually one of the fattiest cuts, but what I got must have been the smallest, skinniest cattle.
I had maybe 50g of fat in the day and woke this morning feeling less than well
All symptoms vanished though when I had breakfast: 200g of tallow and about 600g of steak
Perhaps I'm too lean now to run well on my own fat (why can't you judge your own fatness?)
I highly recommend pemmican if you're as bad as me at making sure you have fatty enough meat
#Pemmican
Ingredients Beef, sliced thin for easy drying 1.2kg Tallow (made from suet) 1.2kg
Equipment
- A method of making thin slices of meat - My butcher cut mine up
- A dehydrator. I have had success with a cheap round one, and an expensive box one. The key is ability to hold a temperature. I prefer commercial driers over home made as they provide a reasonably sanitary environment. Higher temperature = faster drying, but higher temperature = less vitamin C
- A method of making the meat into tiny pieces. I used a food processor. Feed it slowly, meat is harder than most of the stuff it cuts
- A method of melting sufficient tallow. My dehydrator holds just over a kilo of meat, which means just over a kilo of tallow. I used a glass mixing bowl
- A large enough mixing bowl to mix in - mine pictured below is an enormous steel salad bowl 34cm across
- Something to mold the pemmican in, I use a large casserole dish lined with grease proof paper
Method
- Dry the meat. This can take a while. I'd love to know how hot I could take this without destroying too much vitamin C. I ran it at 30 degrees C
- Wait. I waited a week. Maybe 4 days would have been enough. The dryness you're looking for is where the meat cracks instead of bending
!A hand demonstrating meat being so dry it cracks rather than bends
-
Weigh your mixing bowl. This is a slow process and scales tend to turn off part way through.
-
Blend the meat to powder. I used a food processor, with about a third of a slice being fed at time, emptying it into the mixing bowl after every 300 grams or so.
!Dry meat blended fine. The little bit of fat in the meat makes it sticky
- Weigh your blended meat. Weigh out the same amount of tallow
!Blocks of tallow in a glass bowl
- Melt the tallow at as low a temperature as you can. That's about 50°C. I used the microwave for this as I didn't want to dirty my double boiler. I ran it 1 minute at a time for about 3 minutes, stirring and measuring the temperature each time. Tallow melts at about 50°C
!A glass bowl with melted tallow in it. A thermometer to the side reads 50°C
-
Combine. This works just like making cake batter. Make a well in the mound of blended meat, pour in the tallow. Mix with hands or wooden spoon until all the meat is saturated.
-
Mold it. I line a container with grease proof paper. I haven't tried a teflon lined container, though that could release the pemmican easily. Press the pemmican into the mold, I use a steel spatula to flatten the top.
- Let it cool. In the fridge or on the bench. Before it goes hard, but after it has set a bit, cut it into portions. I cut mine into 16 pieces averaging 140g each.
Package it in glass, paper, or foil. I used foil and packaged each two together
- Clean up. As the cook you get to eat the pemmican left in the mixing bowl
It's sad that it's so resisted
This is a 1 year old archived thread on the popularity of carnivore. I found the discussion interesting, though no one was throwing studies around, one person noted the catch 22 that research can't be done on carnivore because it would be unethical to assign people to the diet because it has no research on it
Summary (2 minute read): https://faseb.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1096/fasebj.27.1_supplement.127.4
Linked to the title is the full study. Image is figure 2 from the study.
If Australians are to eat healthy, unprocessed meats while making sustainable choices, native animals would be an obvious choice.

I bought half a beef liver and parted it out into ~100g pieces, vac packed them and put them into the freezer, but kept 80g out to have today for lunch
I don't think I could have eaten a lot, it's so very very rich, but I expected it to taste good because it's so nutritious and wow was it good.
I fried it in a smoking hot cast iron pan for about 20 seconds each surface.
I know it's not just me but could others here comment? On meat or not.
I find often I need to exercise, I'm just itching to use my resistance training set until failure (and then, after an hour resist doing it again) or go for a bike ride - it's a half hour up hill ride from here to most places I go, and I'll ride hard to the top of that hill and see what speed I can get on the way back, just to burn off what feels like excess energy
It helps that we're right. That it can't be bad to eat what humans have eaten for 2 million years.
But 2 recent things I've looked at were studies done a few decades ago and shelved because they didn't get the "right" answer, but were recovered recently and published showing the lipid hypothesis was wrong and the cause of metabolic disorder was carbohydrates
They were suppressed in the 70s and 80s, now they are published. Dietary guidelines in Australia (one of the biggest wheat exporters) now allow low carb for treating type 2 diabetes.
I do believe we're watching a change in consensus (which as always is progressing one death at a time - perhaps it's good that the other side is committed to a metabolically dangerous path)
"You can tell when an idol is being worshiped because human beings are sacrificed" - with reference to the food epidemiological studies used to prop up the current dietary guidelines
This one's a video by a scientist trained in animal nutrition who turned the tools he used to design feed for animals onto the human food supply. It's a depressing story.
TLDW: Most food in the food supply is grain. Grain is not protein complete, specifically it lacks lysine. Practically everyone is lysine deficient. To be healthy you need at least half your food to be animal sourced.
Humans classed as obligate carnivores when? We need animal sourced food to thrive although we can get by on plants with supplementation.
Youtube, 27 and 5 sixths minutes.
Eat meat, sleep better.
I have found on zerocarb much more than low carb is sleep
I fall asleep hard and quickly. I wake 7 hours later fully awake immediately. Dreams happen, last night I had two different ones that I recalled when I woke. But as soon as I was awake I could immediately be up and doing stuff.
Alcohol messes with this in all dimensions - slower falling asleep, fuzzier wake up. It's so much better when sober. Sometimes I simply can't fall asleep because I'm too drunk.
Vilhjalmur Stefansson's book detailing his time with the Inuit, his eating meat only, the study of him and a fellow explorer's exclusive steak diet, the rise of modern standard American diet.
I was surprised today that I seem to have put on some extra fat. Obviously there are pathways for protein to fat and fat to fat, but one piece of advice from the subreddit where I started was
>eat fatty meat until you don't want more
I followed that, the other was for setting the fat percentage
>Eat more fat if digestion is too slow (code for difficult pooing) eat less if it's too fast (loose poo)
I should be eating less fat.
I think I'll change my standard order from Scotch fillet (I think that's rib eye fillet in American) to half Scotch fillet and half something lean
Or I could exercise a lot more. They say you can't outrun a cheeseburger, you definitely can't outrun the fat in a 2 inch Scotch fillet cooked to very very blue
Christmas and New year's drinks may have also contributed either directly (is there a booze to fat pathway?) or by offsetting the food I need

It's a 1 year old study but pretty strong and highly relevant
A 21-year-old WA man who was filmed laughing as he sped towards calves at a property near Geraldton has been sentenced.
Again car versus cow violence. This time it's not a cop so they got jail for animal cruelty
We all know this, but this might be a good article to share with friends and relatives, it's two years old, but I hadn't seen it before.
TLDR: University of Adelaide (in Australia) scientists examined meat eating in cultures world wide, and found that more meat correlates with longer life.
They point out that previous research efforts indicating meat causes bad health are badly designed and suspect on the face of them, but even more suspect with this study
