"The Bolitoglossa chirripoensis grows slowly, can take up to 20 years to reach adulthood, and has a low reproductive rate, which limits its population recovery capacity"

Woah

Physical copies are annoying and cost money, still sad that good quality low bitrate content has become so much harder to come by. I suppose you could always grab the remux and re-encode, could even be automated

Aljazeera reporting that this was leaked to multiple sources, pretty much confirmed.

The Israelis had a very detailed fucking fake story about how these guys died involving a surprise Hamas attack and sniper fire lmao. So I can't imagine Netanyahu will just give up, expecting like a false flag attack now, something bigger.

I reckon both sides would have a lot in common as well as some wacky culture specific ones to explain

Yeah Tylenol is a trash med that would never get approved today, especially not OTC. Unfortunately it's one of the only things they let pregnant women take for pain. We need more research into the opiate drugs, there are atypical mu agonists that actually don't carry as much addiction and overdose risk (gee I wonder why these didn't get discovered when they were looking for a replacement for heroin/morphine), kappa antagonism might be useful in chronic pain, and delta agonists seems promising as well.

That looks amazing, got a try this

Jesus fucking Christ that headline, there's virtually nothing in there about how Kirk practiced politics except that he went around talking to people. So the right way to do politics is .. by talking. Literally every single pundit and politician is doing it correctly holy shit I had no idea.

Never forget the r/chapotraphouse. Actually, come to think of it, do forget the.. what was it again? I'm cold, thanks for the lakes.

Not much advice since I'm doing different software work but to one of your points: My impression is the environment for IT workers has gotten worse but is still pretty lax overall. It depends on the organization you're working for of course, some places will squeeze everything they can out of you.

Selling their cronenberg right back to them

Yeah seems like it, the gold standard coil alloy is kanthal and, don't quite me on this, but I think it's been basically the only one considered acceptable for "roll your own" coils since like forever, so almost certainly what you were using. And most DIYers used to use nic freebase only (not sure if that's still the case), the paper implicates the hcl salt nic as possibly making the metal leeching thing more efficient:

Nicotine salts introduce organic acids (5) in e-liquids, which may facilitate metal dissolution in e-liquids through ligand–metal interactions.

Anyway, the metal of concern in kanthal is chromium which can be non-toxic depending on the chemical form. The paper stated they didn't detect any toxic version of chromium in the vapor, although they speculate it might be possible for this to undergo a further chemical change in the lungs:

Nontoxic Cr(III) was the only oxidation state of Cr observed in aerosols

But they also detected metals that didn't come from the coils! Like Escobar brand apparently has a coil sheath that is 40% lead. Like what the actual fuck were they thinking with that design decision? And sure enough the juice had lead in it before it was even vaped. Also they found antimony and stated they didn't know where it came from, presumably it would be something the juice came into contact with before the device was put together.

A vape with a borderline dangerous amount of lead in the liquid might still be superior to cigarettes from a health standpoint, but why risk it when you can just use a regular non disposable one with coils and juice from reputable brands?
