  1. The transition from real pancakes (without yeast) to bread (i.e., pancakes + yeast + a lot of waiting) is extremely obvious, so I don't understand why you're arguing about it here.. Have you been asked for your opinion here? ..can you read English? The whole world doesn't eat that crap that the English call pancakes, I already wrote that... If you went somewhere in South America, Africa, or Asia and said you wanted something to eat, they would probably pour some kind of paste from a cup onto a pan, stir it a few times, spread it around the hot pan (etc.), and make some kind of pancake. Most people do this with flour because it's the easiest way. Get your brain out of that hole and go out into the world. Four percent of the world's population lives in the US. 95–96% no. ps. I would call the differences between these dishes “symbolic”.. This is one of the best things about baking: butter roll or milk roll.. Today I ate something like this: yeast cake with blueberries:
  2. To make pancakes,we take flour, milk, water (mineral water), eggs, and salt. Where are yeast? There isn't any. And most recipes for pancakes, or variations thereof, are similar. You can replace mineral water with beer, or replace milk with cream or kefir, or basically use water + flour. Most of the world (outside the West) eats pancakes that have never seen yeast.. And they've never even heard of gluten intolerance.. This in case, this is NOT a pancake: (this is some kind of pathetic joke about pancakes..) This is what real pancakes look like: Pancakes are a very simple recipe. Once you add yeast to it, you'll have to wait hours before you can even eat it.. After adding yeast, a bread-like dough is made, which rises.. If you want to reduce the thickness, you'll end up with a pizza. It's not what “the average person in the world eats,” because it simply takes time to make it.. They probably invented pizzas for those who can't eat regular pancakes...
  3. In countries where there is no authoritarian ruler or dictator who makes all the decisions, it is much more difficult to start a war, because such a democratic politician must somehow “encourage” his supporters and, worse still, his political opponents. So this process takes time, and it is visible in the public forum before military action begins. But I don't think it has anything to do with statistics, does it?
  4. Having a unified system for exchanging information between different scientists from different countries obviously speeds up the development process. But first, you need to have this exchange of information between people from different countries. In ancient times, only rulers and perhaps merchants exchanged messages. Most people could not read or write.
  5. But these statistics are based on reliable, objective factors that can be measured. Whether someone buys bread, soap, and shampoo can be calculated based on how quickly they consume these consumable goods. Wars depend on unpredictable factors. You have the whim of some autocrat, a sudden unexpected incident that sets off a snowball effect, you have a war that is over, but in reality for some it is not over yet, it has only been frozen in time, and they are just waiting to unfreeze it... etc., etc. These are unmeasurable factors.
  6. You exist here in this universe.. Moment. Fleeting moment that you should praise and enjoy. Don't spoil it.. ..you didn't understand anything I said.. as if I were speaking another language..
  7. Democracy is a transitional state to dictatorship. And dictatorship is a transitional state to democracy. Between them, you have transitional states called civil war. Thank you for your attention! ps. Now figure out which state each country is in. ps2. As long as there were no weapons of mass destruction, it somehow worked.. but now it's complete chaos..
  8. Whatever you want... ;) You have a very primitive understanding of what it means to be God, i.e., you have slaves who are supposed to bow down, make sacrifices, pray, etc. Such mindless creatures can be created in a 3D game, and they will behave according to some primitive pattern. It's terribly boring. This is obviously nonsense, as the Moon was formed by the collision of a protoplanet with Earth. i.e. it was a conversation between someone who knows everything who has no idea about anything, so as not to waste time, it was shortened to one sentence... ..then ask.. And then you'll cry that everyone knows your personal details... ;) ...“AI”/LLM has hallucinations, and they release them as text, and you get angry that you get some “crap”.. funny.. funny.. It's interesting that when a human has hallucinations (i.e., everything they are currently saying), no one has any objections, but when LLM has hallucinations (i.e., everything you have in the console), people on this forum have objections... ;) In what form? Could it be a form that destroys someone's life? You have a company, a family, children, and then you will lose everything. You had that in the case of Isaac's sacrifice etc. If someone has committed some wickedness in their life, they can expect such attractions in the next generations of their children and grandchildren. You have no idea why people can be punished for the sins of their ancestors who have long since passed away. People notoriously take revenge on people from the same group as those who have committed crimes, so why shouldn't “gods” practice such techniques... ;) But animals talk to each other, but you're too stupid to understand them.. All that chirping from the birds in the sky isn't noise, it's just them talking in their language.. Do you know how to make a Russian from Putin's regime start speaking English? You have to give him a plane so he can fuck off from that collective farm... ;)
  9. That would be difficult, because Algegra is an Islamic word..
  10. Because you don't understand the process... The typical process is as follows: - the end user says they need something, and the request is addressed to support (because a typical user has only access to it). It is called "bug report" or "feature request". - support is reviewed by the manager, and if they decide that it makes sense/many people are asking for it, then it is forwarded to development. Why would development ask you if you need anything? Does the chef come and ask you if you need anything? At most, the waiter will come, asks, and then do whatever he wants.. He can say that the cooks have already gone home or that the food has run out, etc. There are special applications for managing such bug reports and feature requests. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug_tracking_system Large corporations do not allow ordinary users to contact developers because they fear that they are HR people who will try to poach them by offering higher salaries, etc. So basically, software is now anonymous—you have no idea who made it by name.
  11. I don't think this comment is directed at me. I didn't program this forum. If there is an option in version v1.0, and they later remove it in version v2.0, but at the same time they didn't reset it, and the code still uses these options, which cannot be modified, then it is the fault of the software designers. People are hired and fired in companies. The most knowledgeable people leave because they are not paid as much as they want, and the new ones have no idea what is in the old code. If they didn't upgrade this software every so often, their work would basically be pointless, so they would be fired anyway. New employees wouldn't even have anyone to ask about what the code was all about. Getting to grips with someone else's code can take years.
  12. I said: I would write a script, meaning I wouldn't have to do anything.. The scripts run in the background, launched every minute by cron. You make a script, and then: And then you write: In the script, you check whether someone who was banned a moment ago (i.e., their nickname is in the database with the appropriate status) or you browse the contents of https://scienceforums.net/topic/29763-bannedsuspended-users/ visits his/her banned account, for absolute no reasons, and if so, you send an email (to me, to inform me or you) about the suspicion that someone is a sockpuppet. I just noticed a pattern in people who later become known as sockpuppets: they visit their old banned accounts with nostalgia. Well, I guess we're going in the opposite direction - banning people under ridiculous pretexts is the order of the day here.. Before someone “grows up” enough to have serious conversations, they are already banned, and only their second and third sockpuppet start talking sense... ;) ...we can see that.. :) I think you've confused this with the saying that those who do not want to be rulers are the most suitable for the position. It's more likely to be some kind of error in the code. I see that the studio has it disabled..
  13. Well, I was talking about today's situation, i.e. everybody with dynamic private IPs. If someone has a public static IP, they can have HTTP, HTTPS, SSH, VNC servers, etc. there, so basically you had to start by doing nmap HIS-IP-ADDRESS to check what ports are open at this IP.. He could host personal website there. Now you see how this can cause problems with anonymity?
  14. You are in the same position as the rest of the world. They started charging extra money for a public static IP address. Try: curl -s https://ipecho.net/plain alternatives: curl https://api.ipify.org if you prefer JSON: curl 'https://api.ipify.org?format=json' if you want IPv6 in JSON: curl 'https://api64.ipify.org?format=json' Such tools are not reliable. Today I am located 60 km away from me, usually it is 300 km. On Linux write: curl -s "https://ipinfo.io/$(curl -s https://api.ipify.org)"
  15. Is that what you mean? I rarely visit other people's profiles, and when I do, I do so without being logged in (so that no one could see that I was viewing their profile), and I had trouble finding such a profile. But what you see above is a legitimate user with > 250 rep points. Maybe something went wrong during the database transfer? If I were a moderator, I would be the best moderator on this forum. ;) I would write a script that shows me who is a sockpuppet: they visit their previous banned profile while logged into their new account.
  16. In order for port forwarding to make sense, you need to have a public static IP address for your router. Nowadays, this is rare. Private individuals are assigned private dynamic IP addresses. And to have a public static IP address, you need to have a company and pay for it. People who want to have their own server at home, e.g. CS:GO or Minecraft, continue to forward ports. Nowadays, we have the UPnP protocol for routers, among other things, which is used to open ports by a specific application: https://www.google.com/search?q=UPnP+port+forwarding https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Plug_and_Play Discussions about port forwarding for Minecraft server using UPnP (or manually): https://www.google.com/search?q=UPnP+port+forwarding+minecraft How can you know that someone is using 5G and has IPv6? You just made that up. I go to a website that is supposed to provide my IPv6 address (I'm on my mobile right now) and it says that it cannot detect my IPv6 address. Pick up an IPv6 detection website, and if it detects your IPv6, we will attempt to verify whether you have a public static IP address. ..unless someone is using their mobile phone as a router for their computer (like I am right now).. Random hotspots in restaurants, for example, you also don't know how they connect, whether through their GSM modem or fiber optic cable. (my laptops used to be premium class and have built-in GSM modems – I can plug a SIM card to them and use the Internet from mobile cell towers..) (even worse, you can send and receive SMS messages that come to these built-in GSM modems from Linux)
  17. Wouldn't they let themselves be conquered by the Romans?
  18. Layman - a person who knows little
  19. I don't think this is anecdotal evidence. People behave as they learned from a young age in the family home. If you take a newborn Nordic child (preferably a couple of thousand or millions, to have a large sample rate) and put him/her into an Italian-Spanish family, and he/she (they) despite having stayed all 18+ years in their family would behave like a typical Nordic child raised by Nordic parents, then there would be a topic of conversation. I think such a “Nordic child” would behave like a typical Italian or Spaniard. Lombardy is the (northern) territory of Italy conquered by Germanic (Nordic) tribes. Later, southern Italy was conquered by the descendants of the Vikings (Normans). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_conquest_of_southern_Italy Romans settled Germanic immigrants in Spanish territories: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_the_Suebi
  20. All you have to do is write worthwhile, interesting posts, or provide comprehensive answers to questions asked by other people.
  21. Yes, if you are a hacker. But 1) It will cost you at least $12/y most likely $50/y (for servers) 2) It can get you permanently banned.. ;) 3) It will not work in the past mode (to check the DV already received) 4) Unless you really take over the SFN database. If you didn't really thank anyone (because there was nothing to thank them for), it was sarcasm. Someone considered it rude behavior. As far as I remember I don't think I ever gave you any negatives. I did not participate in the threads in which you said something controversial. If someone starts insulting other people, then most often he/she gets a lot of downvotes. People who give you downvotes are usually those who are most active in the thread. So by monitoring/making a script to: https://scienceforums.net/online/ then you can already know who logged in when and correlate it with the date of receiving a downvote. or better https://scienceforums.net/online/?filter=filter_loggedin
  22. A wood or coal stove for a normal family is the same size as, or just slightly larger than my today's gas stove. Here is an example photo from a hundred years ago: Before women's emancipation, after all, they stayed at home with their children (and there were a lot of them!) and they had to eat something.. After all, they are also used to heat the apartment in the cold winter. I know people who still used such inventions 20 years ago. When it's -15°C to -20°C here, you can immediately tell who has a wood or coal stove, because you can see the characteristic smoke coming out of their chimney. For about five or ten years now, drones have been flying over chimneys to check whether people are burning trash. There are tenement, and then there are tenement. There were times when there was only one kitchen and one bathroom for the entire floor. Damn. It's a good thing I never had to deal with that. But there are films from over 50 years ago that even made jokes about it..
  23. If someone lives in the city, and does not have a refrigerator (???), he buys only as much as he needs.. In a day or two, when he uses up the previous ones, he buys new ones. But in order to buy as much as you need, these vegetables and fruits can't be in some bags that you can't open and pick out a few pieces of what you need! ie, you buy by weight You weigh stuff on a scale that stands and choose for yourself on the touch screen, for example, potatoes, onions, carrots, etc. You guys live in some kind of parallel universe. When there were no refrigerators, people smoked meat, pickled vegetables with a lot of salt, onions and garlic, and from fruit in summer they prepared jams or jam, and this was kept in cellars (because it was coldest there). I keep thinking about making pickled cucumbers now, but I'm waiting for a good price per kilogram. It was already $0.6 per kg, but I did not buy. Before people started using electricity (do you mean those super current-consumers i.e. induction cooktops?!) or gas, everyone used coal and wood to cook dinner. I know people who still have such things in their homes.. It is difficult to create a gas installation in old buildings. Several decades ago I had an apartment in the second city in which you simply replaced the gas cylinder under the stove. You cook yourself dinner, and in the process heat the entire apartment in winter.
  24. If someone says that they “cook at home,” but then buys puree that they throw in the microwave, meat that they throw in the microwave, and some pre-prepared vegetables that they throw in the microwave. Boiled eggs with the shells already removed, etc., etc., then they are not “cooking at home”. They are just reheating factory-made, chemically preprocessed food that has been preserved to stay fresh longer. Pancakes out of a bag, poured from a canister... ? what is that supposed to be? It's rather difficult to call that “cooking a fresh/home-made breakfast”.. Pancakes are made with flour, mineral water, eggs, and salt. And people in US can pour it from some kind of container with liquid pancakes? A viral video from this week: a tourist from the US couldn't believe that in Europe vegetables are not sold in airtight vacuum bags, but are just lying around loose, and not even washed... :) The production of unhealthy food in the US has become so ingrained that it is now a structural problem. After all, the prices of vegetables and fruit when bought directly from the farmer are lower than those bought and processed in a factory. There is no profit margin for processing this food. Every day, local farmers bring me fresh vegetables to nearby stores. Harvested yesterday from the field, today eat. No factory is needed to process it into “mashed potatoes.” I think it's highly processed food, which is at the very end of the cause-and-effect chain. ps. There is no reason to add corn syrup to everything.
  25. Search the Internet for “mortality rate of millionaires in the US compared to other Western countries.” e.g. https://fortune.com/well/article/wealthy-americans-shorter-lifespan-europe/ "In a new study published today, researchers at Brown University analyzed the survival rates and wealth of older adults in the U.S. and Europe over 12 years. They found that Americans’ survival rate was lower than their European counterparts across all wealth tiers. The wealthiest in Northern and Western Europe had a mortality rate roughly 35% lower than that of the wealthiest Americans. " In Europe, we don't eat shit. Seriously. It doesn't matter how much money someone has. If someone here doesn't have money, they cook their own (healthy) meals. No processed junk food. This week, I watched a video on YouTube showing that in the US you can buy peeled, cooked eggs in packs of a dozen or so. How much chemicals did they have to add to make them last longer than a few days? In Europe no one in their right mind would touch it with a ten-foot pole. I spent $2 on breakfast, lunch, and dinner today. I cooked it myself. And this was not an isolated case. I usually limit my daily food budget to $2-3. It is usually closer to $2 than $3. For $2, you can buy about 400 grams of pork neck. Fresher, at the butcher's shop. I was going to buy pork shoulder, it was on sale yesterday for $3.5/kg, but when I came at 4 p.m., it was already sold out. They cut off a piece on the spot and put it in a grinding machine. Don't buy minced meat from factories where you don't know what they're grinding up in there. Such meat is placed in vacuum bags and can remain there for weeks. No thanks. I prefer the saleswoman to grind it in front of me. For the dish I made myself, I would have had to pay $10 in a restaurant. Making your own healthy dinner is much cheaper than buying it “on the town.”
