[19:24:11] <katsmeow> !pepper!
[19:56:56] <katsmeow> Different cooking methods matter too. In 2015, Sri Lankan scientists discovered that they could more than halve the available calories in rice by adding coconut oil during cooking and then cooling the rice in the refrigerator.
[19:58:13] <katsmeow> Differences in height, body fat, liver size, levels of the stress hormone cortisol, and other factors influence the energy required to maintain the body’s basic functions. Between two people of the same sex, weight and age, this number may differ by up to 600 calories a day
[20:00:11] <katsmeow> The microbes in our intestines digest some of the tough or fibrous matter that our stomachs cannot break down, releasing a flow of additional calories in the process.
[20:00:12] <katsmeow> But different species and strains of microbes vary in how effective they are at releasing those extra calories, as well as how generously they share them with their host human.
[20:00:42] <katsmeow> He took gut microbes from each, and inserted them into the intestines of microbe-free mice. Mice that got microbes from an obese twin gained weight; the others remained lean, despite eating the exact same diet.
[20:02:13] <katsmeow> The discrepancies between the number on the label and the calories that are actually available in our food, combined with individual variations in how we metabolize that food, can add up to much more than the 200 calories a day
[20:03:59] <katsmeow> Harvard nutritionist David Ludwig, ... has shown that teens given instant oats for breakfast consumed 650 more calories at lunch than their peers who were given the same number of breakfast calories in the form of a more satisfying omelette and fruit.
[20:05:21] <katsmeow> research demonstrating that high-fructose corn syrup and other forms of added fructose (as opposed to fructose found in fruit) can trigger the creation of compounds that lead us to form an excess of fat cells, unrelated to additional calorie consumption.
[20:14:46] <katsmeow> Rosewill, created in 2004, is a private-label brand wholly owned by Newegg. The company specializes in computer peripherals like power supplies, cases, memory, and cables. In 2008, the company began selling on a variety of websites, and the Rosewill.com website doesn't make its connection to Newegg obvious.
[21:10:47] <rue_house> hey kat
[21:10:53] <rue_house> did you read the thing?
[21:16:28] <katsmeow-afk> which thing?
[21:16:40] <katsmeow-afk> hey rue
[21:16:44] <rue_house> link froim the email
[21:16:48] <katsmeow-afk> did you read your email?
[21:16:55] <rue_house> I'm gonna get antoher spoon of peanut butter brb
[21:17:07] <rue_house> hey! i got mail!
[21:17:08] <katsmeow-afk> i'm gonna go make noise
[21:18:09] <rue_house> make some for me too
[21:18:40] <rue_house> some bzzzt or some zizizizizizi , but not YEAOUCH, not fond of that one
[21:19:17] <rue_house> what needs to be discussed about an emitter follower?
[21:20:47] <rue_house> I wonder if I can find tyco fiber ends
[21:21:05] <rue_house> something odd is going on, a whole whack of large menufacturers are being bought up
[21:21:21] <rue_house> its starting to look like a hot potato dance
[21:21:38] <rue_house> the last one standing gets their hands burnt and drops it, then nobody can eat it
[22:00:13] <rue_house> I'd like to know more about your pitfall warnings with the common collector driver
[22:04:08] <rue_house> I talked to the guy who runs the largest recycling facility on the coast about getting materials from broken things
[22:04:11] <rue_house> he just dosn't get it
[22:04:23] <rue_house> if it dosn't work, he cant fathom why anyone would want it
[22:04:41] <rue_house> i was sad
[22:59:50] <katsmeow-afk> ok, i made a noise, with a topping of rusty dust
[23:00:48] <katsmeow-afk> just that you cannot pull the base down below 0.7v , altho it will fall down and turn off itself, it may be real slow about it
[23:03:50] <katsmeow> if the power transistor is hot, it will need the base pulled below .6 to assure turnoff
[23:04:20] <katsmeow> you can cheat a lot: put a diode between emitter and the top of that resistor
[23:05:15] <katsmeow> a chinese company put together $4.7 Billion to spend buying up usa/japanese companies over the next 5 years
[23:05:40] <katsmeow> On Semi just bought Fairchild
[23:26:23] <katsmeow> right now, he is prolly seeing the lowest money he's ever seen for scrap steel, offer to pay twice as much as he paid for it
[23:27:09] <katsmeow> point out you'll take stuff that he cannot recyle off his hands for free, like glass for your solar panels
[23:35:27] <katsmeow> China’s Tsinghua has spent more than $9.4 billion in two years, including buying a stake in U.S. data-storage company Western Digital Corp., and with plans to invest $47 billion over the next five years.
[23:35:47] <katsmeow> $47 Billion, not $.7
[23:35:53] <katsmeow> dan it
