The calcium carbonate in hard water precipitates out when you boil it, i.e. it turns solid.
Microplastics make for great nucleation points for the calcium carbonate to latch onto. So, the microplastics became super easy to filter out of the water (with some getting stuck to the bottom of the kettle in that white scale that you have to use vinegar to clean out.

Maine doesn’t really have anyone “upstream”.
The sad thing about Oblivion is that there are in-game books in Morrowind and previous games that describe the empire as being in the middle of a bamboo jungle. The vibe comes off as the Roman Empire in South East Asia.
Instead we got generic high fantasy with the occasional guy wearing Roman armor.
Only as far as storyline and setting go. Other than that, it was an okay shooter.
The main one would be, in 53 years of Trek before Discovery, Spock never mentioned a sister.
Which is mostly of explained at the end of Season 2 of Discovery.
If you just noped out in Season 1, which a lot of the more conservative sort of trekie did, then you’d miss that.
I do like that they sort of explained the Klingon Empire was getting really into genetic experimentation. It kind of ties in the DS9 tribbles episode as seen here.
The simple “We do not discuss it with outsiders” line is great. Which actually makes me want to watch more DS9…
Anyway… some of the continuity issues are explained away in the second season? Sort of?
It’s still my least watched trek. I’ve even watched more of the Animated Series than Discovery.
I was military before my first civilian job.
We had that lesson beat into our heads repeatedly, and yet there were still people who never quite picked up on it.
We had the consent to monitoring pop-up every single time we logged onto a government computer, and then had that consent to monitoring explicitly spelled out every three months as we had to complete a computer based training program.
For some people, it still didn’t take.
All that said, this particular thought crime detection effort is creepy as fuck.
Reciting from memory is a bardic skill, but those “other people” were his dedicated assistants.
Well, possibly. We don’t know when Homer went blind, or if he was ever actually blind.
All we really know is that the two biographies written about him were written at least 400 years after his death. Both are highly questionable, but both still say that Homer was literate, or at least well educated, before losing his sight.
All we actually know is that Homer wrote the Iliad (or parts of it) and the Odyssey.
And we know the works of Homer because they were written down.
Bards aren’t just the run of the mill musicians. They are so much more than that.
And most of that “so much more” requires extensive training. Which requires some form of reading.
Bards are historians and have some magic of their own.
Well, as long as it’s not any smaller than the hummingbird, it’s still possible.
A hummingbird is pushing the limits of the wild shape ability, and would actually not be allowed under some versions of the game
A flea is too small for wild shape.
While replication of research is important, one must be sure to use a diverse selection of subjects to compensate for any discrepancies caused by subject idiosyncrasies.
One may argue that a follow-up study may be warranted for any specific individual subject, yet without that additional, supplementary testing on diverse subjects, the follow-up study might present the appearance of some sort of emotional attachment.
I do apologize for the tone of my rebuke.
Cutting costs and laying people off makes the books look slightly better (more cash on hand) which makes the stock price jump, which is all these ghouls want because they’re going to sell off on the high, and then bail out.
That’s not how it works. Making money today is the only thing these ghouls care about, ruining a company or brand is just dandy because they won’t be holding the bag when it bursts. They’ll have passed it to someone else. Someone else who will then work to gut the company even more before selling it to someone who will gut it and close it down.
And nothing of real value will have been made, but lots of rich asshats will be slightly richer.
Republican AGs have already said they’ll use KOSA to block anything trans related, so maybe don’t bring that up when talking to Republican senators.
Brother printers are great. If only because they don’t add all the pointless bullshit add-on “features” that everyone else does.
Brother printers, they’re just printers. Nothing more, nothing less.
They also take third party ink.
Basic used “else”.
It’s nice. “if”, “then”, and “else”. I spent a year programming a shitty roulette game on an Apple 2e back in high school. I still remember the joy of using if/then/else paired with goto to make a horrible mess of spaghetti logic.
But yeah, “else” is nice.
Guardians 3 was good.
Mostly because they weren’t trying to shoehorn future movie plot setups into it.
On that note, the Holiday Special was also pretty good.
Shang-Chi wasn’t a bad movie… Not one I’m likely to rewatch much, but a good popcorn movie…
Other than that, no Marvel has started falling into producer interference mode, where every movie must explicitly set up the next, even if they don’t have a full plan for what’s next.
They’ve lost sight of the key to their success; telling a tight, self-contained story made by people who love the characters.
