not sure but excessive caffeine can definitely make it worse

i mean technically it’s possible, you can show someone lab i guess there’s nothing extremely dangerous, not sure how it works legally, but the process is rather boring and we’re talking about a place that stores literal tons of piss why would you go there

what kinda drug tests are we talking about here? i’m talking about the kind where you send piss sample and then get result, or in fact hundreds of results. you need to make sure all your paperwork is complete and lab is certified and so on because someone might say that results are legally invalid

the process is a bit more involved, samples need tracking and monitoring and storage and preparation, and if it’s like you describe then guy’s sketchy and won’t survive audit

to run drug tests you need six figure range machine (when new), maybe 5 euro worth of plastic (spe column, eppendorfs, pipette tips), couple ml of acetonitrile and maybe 5-7 min of machine time on average. it can run 24/7 and if you find anything you can do more detailed analysis. bro’s not earning shit, he’s paying down the machines (and maintenance)

e: no way i’m nerd-sniped this easily. you can get hplc-ms for 90ish grand, add milliq water purification system, solvent recycling system, lots of fridges, a couple of laptops and company server and various other equipment and we’re probably in 200k range, excluding lab building itself. then you’ll need, say, $5 of consumables per sample ($2 per spe cartridge), so we’re talking about $40 revenue minus material costs. wages: you’ll need something about four people to run this thing at full tilt, two lab workers, one (?) clerk, half time driver and half time it guy, if you pay everyone 15k/mo then you need to go through 100ish samples just to pay wages not counting rent utilities and debts. but you can probably run 200 per day per machine, 300 if pushing it, so the main constraint will be logistics. because most of lab is in place then adding another hplc/ms will be only 90k. 300 samples per day print 9k per day, if you can get these samples. that’s probably why he’s expanding

Pain

Shadowban is when you can see your own post/comment but it’s unsearchable or otherwise unreachable by other people. milder variant is comments hidden by default, some of them look like deleted by mod but it might be automatic. the point of shadowban is that you don’t know about it. this is something different, why it happened to you idk but there is some trade in old accounts for spam purposes, maybe that’s why

there is empirical series of materials sorted from which one is most likely to lose vs gain electrons, but what exactly happens is one of unsolved problems in physics

i think that when locals call a place “the land that god made in anger”, it might be wise to not settle there

lol this is a question that could only be asked on lemmy. read what you want but more importantly practice

join some matrix room that you like and look around for people’s homeservers

it’s a type of heat engine. heat engines require temperature difference to work, and the lower it becomes, the less energy is there in the first place and a very fundamental limitation, that is carnot cycle efficiency, goes down very quickly. in practice, all heat exchangers have some thermal resistance, and the lower temperature gradient you can afford to use up on this, the bigger heat exchanger becomes, making low grade heat powerplants extremely big and expensive on top of barely generating any electricity

i don’t think there’s a lot of energy to be squeezed from daily variations in air temperature vs lake temperature, you’d be better off just by using solar panels on the same area

take any aluminum can, cut it open, cut a plate fitting in your wallet, insert it there so that it sits on external surface if your walket, done, that’s your yeehaw rfid blocking sleeve, extra mass 1g

if you want to scan bus pass you can put that card on external side of it

there’s nothing wrong with 3rd party batteries, if it’s worn down so badly that it no longer does the thing that it is supposed to then replace it, idk why it’s a question. I replace mine when they’re at 60% of original capacity

Your best bet is to just not engage with them when topics like that come up

real soon it will include any topic

if sun was orange, it wouldn’t be orange, it would be just precieved as regular white light, and new-orange would be even more oranger than what we know today

you need really spicy photons for activation to happen

in space you also have protons some with relatively high energy. most of these come from solar wind and also can cause activation

if everything else fails add matrix account to your profile (to have another communication option) and reach out to admin of your instance

dude, people join irl face to face cults, of course they do
