2 percent is frankly a little low for the bar sugar by weight to still be considered bread, but 10 percent(which is where they were at) is obviously outrageous. If you want a really aggressive rise while keeping a high hydration, adding sugar and heat can get you there. I don't think you're making bread anymore beyond 4 percent though.

Yeah, they primarily used cliffs with sheltered nooks before they were domesticated, so as long as they don't roll off the ledge who cares

Won't run on my 386? Well what good is it then.

Well it's just really the orthopod bros that still do everything manually. Like the biggest technological change there could be something like a CNC machine to precisely modify the bones, but they tend to get good results with how they do it now so I don't mind. And it gives them a good excuse to lift weights so they can keep hammering bones, keeping the Ortho bro stereotype going.

C sections are pretty cool. Popping the amniotic sac and pulling that thing out is fun to watch. I was a 6'6" 300 pound (192cm, 135 kg) male nursing student standing in on one and the poor woman asked me if I was okay afterwards as if it bothered me. It was very sweet. "Oh no, I'm fine ma'am, how are you!"

Knee replacements can be a little rough to watch with the saws, hammers and chisels like an episode of this old house in the OR, but C sections are alright.

I was thinking the catch here would be that these people were bribing their way into schools in order to teach their own weird religious creationism shit or anti LGBT whatever.

That's not a catch. That would improve their hire rates for Texas school districts if they listed it on their resumes.

Kids just primarily prefer a handgun cartridge that's suitable for putting into a rifle for game hunting. It simplifies what sort of ammunition to carry in their backpack. .45 long colt or .357 magnum should do the trick. 10mm auto if you're dead set on semiautomatic.

That's a feature btw, not a bug. If you go to the hospital with a pacemaker malfunction or we're trying to do cardioversion in a way the pacemaker doesn't do itself the only way we can turn it off is with a big magnet. That's why most ED and cardiac units have one for an emergency.

Can't really let random stuff like that with a low injury profile bother you. You'd end up fearing and respecting escalators in that case.

Reminds me of the time the brakes gave out on the L'enfant Plaza escalator for the DC Metro after the Rally to Restore Sanity (a lot good that did). Everyone was piled on going down and it just gave up the ghost and accelerated at full speed to bring them all down in a pile.

For reference, the DC Metro is quite deep underground.

 

Warping is throwing an anchor either manually for a small ship or by rowing the anchor out and dropping it farther away for a larger ship. Then the ship would reel it to change position. Good for maneuvering in harbor. Etymologically related to "throwing" and essentially threading a needle across the sea.

Warp factor get you asses in the rowboat. Engage.

 

Interesting to note here: getting preteens to confusedly call Congress with threats of self harm and questions like "what is Congress" with a push notification is not the best plan
