[00:19:06] <RandomFactor> Everytime riots erupt they trash the place.
[00:22:31] <RandomFactor> But specifically some 8year old girl got shot and killed yesterday. Sounds like Guvna had enough.
[01:02:04] <Sulla> Doesn't random shootings happen in atlanta often? I thought their crime was skyhigh normally anyways
[01:02:42] <Sulla> National guard isn't going to make driveby shootings any better
[01:19:12] <chromas> They apparently had extra shootings over the weekend, plus there was a peaceful vigil for Rayshard Brooks in the form of burning out the Wendy's whose parking lot he had parked in
[01:19:57] <Sulla> That happened a few weekends ago
[01:20:10] <Sulla> I imagine they are going to drop the charges for the cop and this is pre-emptive

[06:37:10] <MrPlow> No location found for chromas
[06:37:19] <chromas> Sweet! I'm totally anonymous
[06:37:37] <FatPhil> you've finally transcended
[06:41:23] <chromas> Are scent particles on a frequency spectrum? Are there nose-ons?
[06:42:01] <chromas> Or do they travel at different speeds or something
[06:42:41] <chromas> Maybe they'd be boogons
[07:17:51] <boru> Are you being serious?
[07:22:07] <chromas> Not really but smells do seem to be different by the time they've traveled across the house
[07:22:24] <chromas> For example, cooking stuff for a tortilla wrap smelled like a waffle from here
[07:23:21] <chromas> So maybe those nasons are being refracted by oleo scattering in the atmosphere
[07:23:27] <boru> Many things can effect that. Over distance, it's usually mass or temperature.
[07:23:40] <boru> There's also your nose.
[07:24:21] <chromas> Delicious garlic scent always seems to make it intact
[07:24:50] * chromas checks fluid levels in nose
[07:24:55] <boru> Every human (bar deformities) has asymmetry in their nostrils; one will have more restricted airflow. The theory is that this is to increase the range of things we can smell. Some particles are absorbed faster in the nasal membrane than others, so some will be smelled in one nostril and not the other given how quickly they pass, ergo, how quickly they are absorbed.
[07:25:57] <chromas> That's pretty neat
[07:26:29] <boru> Furthermore, they may interact with other particles in the air which can change their chemistry e.g. this is how ozone generators work to remove smells.
[07:28:37] <boru> Aromatic compounds don't need to react much to change their aroma entirely.
[07:28:55] <boru> Most of those synthetic food flavourings are made this way.
[07:30:50] <chromas> I remember reading a lot of those involve caramelizing and uh, that other effect that browns foods
[07:30:56] * chromas needs new memory
[07:31:08] <chromas> maillard
[07:31:38] <boru> pH also has an interesting effect with some vegetables.
[07:32:01] <boru> For example, if you change the pH of the water whilst boiling red cabbage, it changes colour.
[07:32:23] <boru> It goes from really bright purple to dull grey-ish purple if you add acids or bases.
[07:32:59] <boru> AIUI, many chefs make use of that to make food look more appealing.
[07:34:23] <boru> And you can turn it completely different colours if you change the pH more significantly.
[07:35:09] <boru> Also, to go off further on a tangent, seems like pootube is starting to delete electronics repair channels now.
[07:35:43] <boru> google are such scumbags. I hope people will finally start to migrate to bitchute off that awful censorship platform.
