  • Rapeseed (Brassica napus subsp. napus), also known as rape and oilseed rape and canola, is a bright-yellow flowering member of the family Brassicaceae (mustard or cabbage family), cultivated mainly for its oil-rich seed, which naturally contains appreciable amounts of mildly toxic erucic acid.[2] The term "canola" denotes a group of rapeseed cultivars that were bred to have very low levels of erucic acid and which are especially prized for use as human and animal food. Rapeseed is the third-largest source of vegetable oil and the second-largest source of protein meal in the world.[3][4]

    Brassica napus subsp. napus is the proper name. Everything else is slang and not worth arguing about.

    We call it Sunflower Oil

    We call it Rapeseed Oil

    Not Rape Seed Oil

  • You don't have to be on the Left to not be on the Reich

    I feel like a lot of people miss this point

  • Rapeseed

    Would be similar to other plant names like Daisy, Rose, Iris, Poppy, Lily, Holly, Petunia

  • You didn't read the article.

    Trump is saying if he takes away Elon's subsidies, Elon would be forced to pack up and go home.

    Not that he would physically deport him.

    It's a misleading title

  • This is all the more disturbing when people won't vax "because the government put something in it"

    Like the "government" wants something in you, it's going to do it. No point in worrying.

    People won't drink tap water for the same reason, then turn around and buy a bottle of "natural spring" water that's not nearly as regulated.

    I'll take my chances with city water treatment scientists, rather than the greedy smart water CEOs

  • Hello, I'm 'Moocher' and I have an idea too

    Why don't you give me all the stuff everyone gives you and I'll use the stuff for you

  • This is part of common core math

    Making Tens (and Hundreds): Composing and decomposing: Students learn to break down numbers to make friendly numbers like 10 or 100, which are easier to add. Example: To add 8 + 5, they might see that 8 needs 2 to make 10. They could take 2 from the 5, leaving 3. Then, they add 8 + 2 = 10, and 10 + 3 = 13.

    They are teaching new students this

  • You had me at the first part

    Then was like "It's okay for the holey lifeboat company to sell their remaining stock because we wouldn't want them to have to lose money or waste a perfectly good holey lifeboats"

  • Cowlick doesn't go against what the post is saying

    Their hair can lay in any direction at anytime

    It's not saying that you can make their hair all perfect in any direction.

  • I can see where I was confusing.

    School district was rezoned. Not sending busses to my area. He'd have to switch schools for 8th grade to get a bus or I'll have to find a way of transportation.

    I walked a mile to my elementary school. Had to walk a block or two for my middle school bus.

  • On the other hand, found out yesterday, my step son's school bus will no longer able to pick him up at my house next year after 2 years of riding the bus. Neat

  • Time is mostly base 60. It goes against the metric system based 10.

    It's like saying milifoot. For 1/1000th of a foot. Doesn't make it a metric unit.

  • Insulation on the dishwasher is mostly for noise and stopping moisture or heat from damaging surrounding cabinets.

    The dishwasher is using new water or heating water. It is not designed to keep the same water hot for an hour plus.

    The whole back of the dishwasher is a tiny piece of plastic. Not insulated at all. Some fancy ones now put a little insulation on back.

    But the idea isn't to keep heat trapped to wash dishes, but to keep heat from being released and damaging things.

  • 24" on-center wall studs aren't uncommon in building practices today

    Most residential interior walls are 16"

    If their house is single-story, then 24" would fit in a lot of local building codes.

  • 2.3 billion dollars in physical currency

    21.8 trillion dollars in total currency

    8.5 trillion dollars in debt owned by foreign countries

    36 trillion dollars in debt total

    Foreign entities are promised half the current total supply of USD

    Oh it would be an absolute mess

  • Last state out has to pay the national debt!

    US holds like half the debt of the world. That would be a really interesting scenario.

  • Funny thing is cars still use right and left (atleast in US) often. Somethings driver vs passenger side. Driver vs passenger doesn't work everywhere for every car in the world like it does with boats.

    What also might be funny is driver vs passenger could be seen like port and starboard in the future if we get self driving cars. There would be no designated driver side of a car, and every side is a passenger. Just like boats nowadays can port on either side because there are no steering oars needed.
