  2.  @brain_tonic  It was the romans that used lead acetate as a artificial sweetener but that was a long time ago. The average person is not going to encounter it, although it is easy to prepare. Leave some lead into acetic acid for a month. Mostly, we encounter metallic lead with some PbO on it. Some electronics have lead in the soldier.

  4. Yes, it is easy to tell someone else to suck it up, to tell them "you don't look sick" when you are a healthy person. Healthy people have no idea how it feels to have some of these diseases. I ran into plenty of people who had POTS (I think it is postural orstatic tachycardia syndrome) and other tachycardia problems on the weeb who were saying they were frustrated by such people and doctors who haven't heard of these diseases.

  6. Why is selling unpasteurized milk illegal? Can't you buy it and heat it to 74 C at home? You need raw milk to produce cheese. It is very unusual that they sell raw meat but not raw milk.

  8.  @rutwickgangurde3247  You can do the same with the peppermint plant. Collect the leaves. Dry them. Crush them. Add them to water and boil. I filter out the chunks of leaves and I drink it.

  9.  @griz561  "there's a lot of really poorly ventilated indoor shooting ranges where the employees are bringing enormous amounts of lead contamination home with them every day" ==Hmmm. Well, I suppose when you fire a gun, the lead ball rubs against the iron tube of the gun, so you would have some micro particles flying around. I don't know how bad that problem is. Tetraethyl lead in gasoline is much worst. It probably burns with oxygen and makes some PbO micro dust and so, it floats around very well in air. Also, the Tetraethyl lead itself is toxic.

  11. @professorfrog7181 You can swallow mercury, let's say a couple of drops, and you would be fine. This is something that has happened hundreds of times with children. Mercury doesn't dissolve much in water and you eventually pass it out. It is much worst to have continual exposure to mercury vapor. Never leave a drop of mercury in your rooms.

  12. ​ @TheoEclipse  "In Australia there's a brand that makes raw milk that they can sell legally in supermarkets. It's apparently cold pressed which somehow eliminates the bacteria to make it safe for consumption (they have to do testing to make sure it's safe)." ==It is called filtering. It is something that was done in the late 18xx and it was demonstrated that such milk lasts longer. They use aluminium oxide as a filter. The pores are smaller than that of bacteria.

  13.  @Spelter  That's the reality of it. A doctor will get too stressed out if he gets emotionally involved with the patients. I have seen some stats that show that a lot of psychologists get a burn out after a few years.

  17. +Jacob Isaacs: "Battlefield is relatively easy to run" ==You are joking, right? At minimum it needs a quad core. They recommend a AMD FX 8xxxx. It is barelly enough. On the intel side of things, apparently a i5 4xxxx is not good enough. 8 GB RAM is ok but 16 GB is better. As for the graphics, better have a GTX 750 TI or 960.

  18. When you swallow a ba, it does electrolysis since your stomic juices contains dissolved salts and HCl. The negative terminal produces H2 and it does not corrode. The positive terminal combines with the monoatomic O that is produced and also the Cl. Since the battery’s external is probably made of some cheap iron allow, the iron will form iron(II) hydroxide and some iron(II) chloride. The bad news is that you get a high dose of iron salts. Eventually, you will get a high dose of lithium ions and manganese ions. I don’t know what that will do to you.

  19. There was a case in Montreal. There was a power station with tall fence all around it signs about the voltage level. His friends dared him to pass over the fence and walk on the equipment. He did it. I don't know what he touched but he was electrocuted. There was another case, also in Montreal. It was at the Jacques Cartier bridge. This bridge is about 50 m off the river’s surface. For some reason, he passed over a fence and there is this area between the sidewalk of the bridge and the asphalt for the cars. He fell through the area. I don’t know the rest. Teen boys tend to take more risks.

  20. ​ @lukeyyt7026  "Is water that was left for a day safe to drink? And what are those bubbles in the water" ==Water that is in pipes is under pressure with some air, at the water purification plant. When pressure is increased, more gases dissolve in water. Temperature has an effect as well. If the water coming out of your faucet is colder than the environment, there will be some offgassing. When temperature is decreased, more gases dissolve in water. The gases are mostly air and some ozone.

  21.  @Killerspieler0815  The problem with this notion that it is about making money is that if I was the CEO of a pharma company, I don't need to make a new product to make money. I could just log into my PC and increase the prices on all the drugs that we sell by 1% and there is nothing you can do about it.

  22.  @MrEp5  "Our city introduced new busses and even years later I could still smell the, what I think is, formaldehyde or other chemicals from the factory... Totally irresponsible." ==I smelled the same thing in the new Montreal buses and they smelled for years. I think it was bc of the yellow glue that they used to lock the bolts and nuts in place.

  25. +Jonathan Riker: It can't run Battlefield 1. Battlefield 1 is a 64 bit program. You would need a 64 bit version of Windows and a 64 bit CPU. On top of that, it won't even open on a single core CPU.

  26. @brynnus "Human's are not evolving. Evolution depends on a mechanism : "survival of the fittest". Modern societies go out of their way and spend huge amounts of money to keep the weakest and unhealthiest alive, and then encourage them to breed. Ergo - no evolution." ==What you are describing is natural selection which is only a part of biological evolution. Genetic mutations still takes place with most being neutral, rare ones giving a benefit and some giving troubles that modern medicine can't solve.

  27.  @godgivesyouyourpotential7152  "Christian's are not "anti science" in the least,we just have a simple message;Instead of opening the "book of life" at page 300 of a 1000 page book,start at page 1,you'll have a much better chance of "putting it all together" 👍" ==So what. Anyone can get some ink and paper and write down stories. Look at the movie Back To The Future. It is a fantasy. If you ask to the writers to explain to you how the time machine functions, they wouldn't have a clue. This is because they invented a machine out of their imagination. Gods and angels are also fantasy machines. There is no explanation as to how they function, why they exist, why they do what they do, how did these guys create a universe. In short, 0 explanations. There isn't any explanation how our universe works. This is because the author was a primitive man with no knowledge about the universe and so, he could only describe things he was aware of.

Of course, I have to fit it in with other things. I am in insider since I use to be a christian. Age is irrelevant. What's important, is evidence.

  34.  @danielmconnolly7  "Nope. That's why they're called theories." ==The explanation given by Zilchy is correct. You can find the definition of scientific theory in various university textbooks and websites such as wikipedia.

  35.  @duffman18  "A "theory" in science means it's fact" ==No, that is not what it means. Facts are just the minutia that get integrated into a scientific theory. In science, we collect data, we try to understand the data, build mathematical models, 3D models, graphs, laws, make predictions. It is the whole set and includes explanations. That gets reviewed by peers. More research is conducted and so on. Eventually, all that might get promoted to the status of theory while previously, it was a hypothesis. This is how the inductive process works. As new data comes in, the theory gets tested. A theory that holds up is considered a good theory. Hypothesis is the previous stage. It is a possible explanation for a set of observations and it should be falsifiable. A hypothesis gets tested. If it passes, it has a potential of being presented as an explanation. Some hypothesis is not testable or it is just not practical to test it. For example, the claim that the Earth is hollow. We have no means for digging that deep. We have no reason to believe it is hallow and so, all science books present the Earth as full.

  36. ​ @pulsarpilot7501  "Sniffing paint was virtually unknown back then. The dangers were more of a wives tale than solid data. People were just starting to see the dangers of cigarettes seriously." ==I'm pretty sure it was understood in the 197xs that VOC were dangerous. It was already known in the 193xs or so that benzene caused cancer. It was used as an aftershave and you could buy it in cans from pharmacies. Benzene was eventually banned. Benzene is present in gasoline and is an important precursor for making other chemicals.

  37.  @veikkoveljanen7475  As usual, the best solution is education and information. A video like the one above gives a real example and the chemistry behind it. Give people all the technical and scientific details. I think it will help a good 50% of them.

  38. ​ @ilikecheetos912  "Dude you don't know anything, people in socialized countries wait many many times longer than we do....socialized medicine is one of the worst things that can happen to a society...I want to be in control of my health, not the government...do you realize you even have people in Canada who come here, because they rather pay the higher cost, than wait until it's too late... Want a good example of how socialized medicine don't work? Look at the VETERANS ADMINISTRATION, and see how many of them are left to die before even seeing a specialist.... Do serious research on both sides instead of just your comfy left side before you comment... Socialized ANYTHING is bad....go talk to people who are have actually been patients in socialized countries WITH high populations." ==The wait time in Canada is quite long. It can be 4 months. This is bc a lot of doctors and nurses want more money and they go and work in the USA. It isn't bc universal healthcare is bad. It is about greed. A lot of people want to become doctors for greed.

  39.  @youtubedeletedmynamewhybother  Humans are emotional machines, just like every other animal. Loving the taste of sugar, of salt, of fats makes the animal want to find certain fruits, hunt of certain animals. Nature has achieved a certain balance over millions of years. Since the advancement of modern science, which happened around 1700, humans have solved a certain set of problems. Now it has become easy to buy tons of sugar, salt, meats, etc. I can go to the store and buy lots of coffee, cola drinks, salty chips. It feels good to eat such things. Exercising doesn’t feel good. It is easier to sit around and get entertained with the TV. First world problems :)

  43. I still have my 1st PC. The keyboard port was broken for about 15 years (~2002). Then I compared the board with more modern boards. Turns out the keyboard ports haven't changed at all. 1 inductor was cracked. These things are tiny (surface mount inductors) and I could not see the crack but my ohmmeter was showing no conductivity. I transferred an inductor from a modern motherboard to my board and it works again.

  45.  @EmpressLilith222  "Western medicine doctors are only here to keep you sick so that you keep coming in so that you continue being their patient and they continue making money off of you! Wake up!" ==In my case it was the opposite. I was going once a month or so and also to different hospitals. One of them took a look at my records and asked what is going on. She collected all the information that was reported in my files. I was previously prescribed anxiety medication but since I don't feel anxious, I did not take it. Also, the first pill I had taken made me feel awful. So, the doc prescribed 2 drugs. Again, the first 2 doses made me feel like crap. Also, it takes something like 2 or 3 months for venlafaxine to start to work. So, that solved my problem and I didn't go back. I just go for yearly checkups. The canadian system is already overloaded. They try to reduce visits.

  46.  @BlazeCarlton  Then that is not a good doctor. If it was me, I would want my patients to understand some of the science at least and they need to have an idea what could be causing their problem. When the doctor asks what did you eat, they are trying to figure out if the problem comes from what you ate. Telling them what you think your problem is can give important clues. Medicine is not straightforward. You also seem to be suggesting that doctors are in it for the money,. Are you from the USA?

  47.  @BlazeCarlton  Sorry. I understood the opposite of what you said. I thought you had written that doctors prefer patients who do not have a basic understanding.

  50.  @jimmyjakes1823  "I can imagine this guy saying "I've used herbicides my whole life and they never hurt me" but it only took one mistake." ==It happens all the time, even in amateur lab situations. People work with safe chemicals and they don't wear gloves or eye protection. It is better to make a habit to always wear protection, specially for the eyes. People cut wood or metal and they don't protect their eyes or face.
