Symptoms of [nitrite] poisoning can vary depending on the amount and duration of the exposure. Those with very mild methemoglobinemia might not have any symptoms at all, or might appear a little pale and feel tired. Moderate-to-severe poisoning is associated with cyanosis (blueness of the skin), confusion, loss of consciousness, seizures, abnormal heart rhythms, and death.

It’s it supposed to be special in some way?

Europe will probably respond, but it doesn’t have to use the exact same coin.

No need to do anything to Putin, everyone. Trump will punish him. Just two more weeks, you’ll see. /s

It’s just dawned on me how restrained and controlled the color palette is in Oglaf. Especially in this strip. It gives the whole series a recognizable, distinguished look. Probably encourages attention to the story. And color transitions punctuate the punchline.

That’s curious! I haven’t seen this before. It’s still talking about and showing a picture of Danish European Affairs Minister Marie Bjerre for me.

Must be a Lemmy glitch of some sort. Lemmy glitch of some sort. glitch of some sort. glitch of some sort. (:P)

Did you comment in the wrong thread? Am I missing a parallel?

Thanks for the tip regarding Fossify, they do seem to have a nice clean set of apps!

We should ask the Kremlin.

Meh. He only had $23.50 in his account.

Don’t be ridiculous. Now back to those dog-powered props,…

I’m all for the “SLEEP 8 HOURS” bit though. I need more of that in my life.

'twas a smidgen wilder than usual, frankly.

Bottle caps are stored in big bags of some sort before being placed on bottles.

They have sharp edges and they scratch each other’s paint as they shift around in the bags.

The scratching produces a fine dust of plastic/paint particles. The dust covers all sides of the bottle caps in the bags.

The caps are placed on the bottles. The dust goes into the liquid inside the bottle. People drink it.

Yes. So many people are misunderstanding this article… The microplastics are on the inside, in the drink, and they are bits of the paint from the exterior of bottle caps that stuck to the inside of other caps when the caps were all jumbled together in big bags before they were placed on the bottles.

There’s a region around the handle where you can grab it to slide left-right but also be scrolling the page up and down, defeating the attempt to move the finger out of the way.

The first time I tried it I kept hitting that region, but I see now that with a bit more precision you can avoid the up-down segment.

Also, having the handle on the middle of the picture instead of underneath is awful on mobile where you can’t see anything because of your own finger.

You had one job.

That is just right-wing disinformation:

The right-wing opposition has questioned the Socialist-led coalition government’s phase-out of nuclear energy and reliance on renewables, saying they made Spain more vulnerable to blackouts.

But the government says there is no evidence to suggest “an excess of renewables or the lack of nuclear power plants” caused the crisis.

No, wait! Please do explain why you are going to bed.

Poor octopuses. They’re not a real danger to humans so we shouldn’t find them creepy or repulsive. Unfortunately for them, they look like a crossover between two things we evolved to stay away from: spiders and snakes.
