  • It takes you 50 years to transform into a mouse?

  • Companies can spy on you to set prices. What does it mean for your next purchase?

  • ahem

    They said “next purchase”

  • Forgive me for doubting any studies that don’t involve blinded trials… but this is just one study. Let’s see if it can be replicated before we get excited

  • Temporary tattoo can instantly test drinks for unwanted drugs: study

    Jump

  • Thanks for telling me what I said. I keep learning new things

    I literally review research in my day job. I’ve never had someone present a study and say “we want to investigate this idea that’s waning in popularity instead of being on the frontier of science”

  • Benzos are about 5x more common than GHB in date rape cases from what I found. Best I can tell is GHB is about half as common as it used to be. Not super common, but ketamine and z drugs are used. Could even be dumping extra shots into drinks.

    Jump

  • TIL that only experts in a field can offer criticism of that topic!

  • They can detect GHB now? Cool, only 10-20 years after it fell out of favor as a date rape drug

  • AquaSwap - A community for buying, selling, and trading aquatic life and goods

    Jump

  • Great suggestion! I’ll read out the them

  • Seed Swap – for trading seeds with others

    Jump

  • Funny, I just thought to create AquaSwap, which is a similar idea but for aquarium stuff. Good luck with Seed Swap!

  • Do movie actors or actress keep the skills they learned? Like no one would screw with Keanu after seeing all the John Wick films? And if they did would they just be fucked from the start?

    Jump

  • Ohhh now the whole Rust controversy makes sense. I always thought it was weird that they got upset about 1 person dying when hundreds died for the John Wick movies

  • Newsom threatens to redraw California House maps in protest at Texas plan

  • Actually, the article seems to be saying that with the overlap, it’s still just 1:02 missing

  • is there any way to invest ethically as a sole individual?

    Jump

  • All hail the quarter earnings report!

  • TIL Cell phone use greater than 10 years increases the risk for acoustic neuroma and gliomas.

    Jump

  • That’s not how odds ratios (or research) work. The compares groups of cell phone users and non-cell phone users.

    With that being said, we’ve always known cell phone use has a correlation with very slightly increased cancer rates. That shouldn’t be controversial. It’s not concluding that there’s a direct cause or even, if they did cause it, that it’s from RF.

  • TIL Cell phone use greater than 10 years increases the risk for acoustic neuroma and gliomas.

    Jump

  • I always knew cancer caused people to use cell phones!

    Edit: on a serious note, the confidence interval for malignant tumors is an odds ratio of 1.2-3.4, although a quick google finds more recent studies (I.e.: not based off of 1990s cell phones) are even lower.

  • Why doesn't the Trump administration simply edit the Epstein files and release them?

    Jump

  • Most of the “files” they are hiding are CSAM fwiw. Most of the rest was released with redactions

  • Why is the number of first-time US homebuyers at a generational low?

    Jump

  • Now combine them both and do average monthly payment.

    Even with higher prices, lower interest rates mean lower monthly costs
