Gaming in Linux on a windows VM isn’t viable for most systems. Most games run really well through proton with little to no effort. Some even run better on Linux than on windows. You just can’t play a lot of the most popular competitive online games because it flags their anti cheat.

It won’t kill most of them the first time, just some. Health and wellness aren’t exactly the top priority for a lot of opioid addicts so it’s sort of effective marketing. If people are dying from it then it’s gotta be strong stuff.

The study also looked at casting the blocks. The cast ones were stronger but they noted some problems with their printing process.

They mention a lot of the usual upsides of 3d printing. It’s easy to iterate on a design, easy to modify to a particular need, and allows for geometry that’s impossible for other methods.

They snap together kinda like 2x1 legos.

I’m always making up stuff to see company reviews and wondering how many of those are fake too.

Fake. A real 9/11 sandwich would be served with freedom fries.

That’s a misleading headline. Makes it sound like 70% of young people use cannabis. The figure is that of people who were charged with cannabis related crimes, 70% were in their 20s. About 1.8% of their population had ever used cannabis in 2019.

The first section looks a lot like alginate spherification. It’s a fun demo to make a fake egg with it but it would be very obvious it isn’t an egg when you cooked it. It wouldn't set or act like an egg at all when heated. I’d also be very curious to see how they make the shell if it really is a fake egg.

For the second section, those are previously frozen eggs. Freezing them turns the yolk rubbery but doesn’t do much to the white.

Mortgage rates are down ~0.25% over the last month which is a bigger deal for most buyers. Mortgages and homes are still pretty expensive compared to a couple years ago but we might finally be at a turning point. The fact that everything isn’t getting worse is a good sign.

Pretty sure they’re saying Apple works for the feds. They might also be having a stroke. Idk.
