Sounds kinda like the Röhm-Putsch.

Not a med student, but I would rule out syphilis and tuberculosis. So I'd have a 1 in 3, not bad, not bad.

When was it decided that parents can do absolutely nothing wrong regarding their kids so that intrusive bullshit like this had to be introduced? Who in their right mind would upload their ID or face pic to some rando porn site to verify an age? It's like Internet Security 101 to not do that ever.

I had a sour taste in my mouth when signing Stop Killing Games because it required my full legal name and address even tho I understand that they need to verify my eligibility to vote and I trust them way more than I trust a for-profit porn site. It's just not something I usually do on principle.

What I think is funny is that if you assumed E=mc^2 for all particles, then that would mean that red light is lighter than blue light.

Einstein initially did write:

If a body gives off the energy L in the form of radiation, its mass diminishes by L/c^2

Does the inertia of a body depend upon its energy-content?, 1905

which got re-arranged to E=mc^2. Although he was aware that this doesn't apply to systems in motion or mass-less particles such as photons.

Is that why they are bombing the bread lines? Or is bombing the bread lines the reason the aid trucks don't advance further into Gaza?

Technically, you could do the same with a bridge. It's just that it's more expensive and human experiments are generally frowned upon.

You know who else curtails developer choice by setting arbitrary deadlines and pushing for aggressive monetization? Game publishers. Pretty sure the devs don't want their game to be universally hated for lootboxes and bugs.

You'd need to go to a talk show and spew ridiculous fascist bullshit without laughing tho. Seems kinda hard.

The figure you've linked plots concentration by weight (wt.%), while the alcohol content of drinks is usually given in volume percent (v/v). Ethanol is less dense than water, so a 30% concentration by weight is a higher concentration by volume.

Imagine a 100g solution of 30wt.% alcohol. That means that 30g are ethanol and 70g are water. the 70g of water translate to 70ml volume (density 1g/ml) and the 30g of ethanol translate to 30/0.789 = 38.02ml. So in total, you would have 108.02ml of liquid and the concentration of ethanol by volume would be 38.02/108.02 = 35.2%.

Why it gets wacky at the end: Ethanol freezes at -114°C, water freezes at 0°C, but at specific concentrations, the eutectic composition, the solution freezes at a lower point than either of its constituents. The eutectic point is the lowest possible freezing point of a solution. The formula I gave is not applicable to eutectic solutions and is an approximation based on perfect solutions (which in reality don't really exist).

Whoops. Well, I forgot to account for sugar and other stuff which decrease freezing temperature as well, so the result might still be around right. It's an ok ballpark at least. Precisely calculating a solutions freezing temperature when it has that many different solubles is pretty hard.
