I’ve found that when using deodorants with aluminum, my body basically builds up a tolerance to them and compensates by sweating more. The more I would apply, the more my pits would sweat. I’ve switched to deodorants with magnesium instead and that has helped me a lot!

Honestly I wouldn’t even be surprised if Procter and Gamble did that shit lol

Nice!

Coelacanth?

Would you mind sharing the recipe you used? I may have to try this!

Did you just use a cut of meat from the store?

Just finished a book about the Lusitania sinking in WW1, this situation (very vaguely) reminds me of that, given that Germany was publicly threatening to sink vessels headed to Britain under the assumption they could be transporting supplies. They went so far as to take an ad out in the paper warning the ship not to sail, as it would be a target.

Would highly recommend it by the way, it was called Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of The Lusitania and it was meticulously researched and very well written. There is a lot more to the story than what I said here and is well worth the read.

There’s a great documentary called 13th about this and racial inequality in America

You’re a brave man

Thank you!!

This is super cool! And they were able to make another major chemical precursor too. I see the yield for ibuprofen is only 64% but I have to assume that’s there room to optimize that reaction scheme to generate higher yields!

I would love to see the full synthesis process as well as reaction conditions, but like everyone else who leaves academia I lost access to journals after finishing my grad program.

Unfortunately the article states a yearly treatment cost would be about $90K with all expenses factored in. Patients with Medicare will likely not be able to get coverage for this, and Medicaid will still require a copay of 20%.

Like every other industry, pharmaceutical companies are profit driven and will maximize their revenue whenever possible, especially when they know the patient population is desperate.

A big example of this was when Pfizer discontinued their research program to cure heart disease, since it is more profitable to charge patients for statins for the rest of their life than it is to cure them.

You just need to win a couple hundred thousand chumba bucks and you’ll be rich!!! I hear 500k is almost a $5 value

Ah I see, sorry for misreading. I believe that there is currently no way to block an instance but I’ve seen people requesting this feature a lot, along with people saying it will be added in the future. Unfortunately I think it’s a waiting game right now

I believe there is a setting in your lemmy.world profile to hide all NSFW content. Try looking at your user settings in browser

I’m so rich, I can use real coffee grounds instead of instant!

Bees and coral are both great answers, but I’m going to go with spiders. The amount of smaller pest insects that spiders consume is definitely overlooked and without them just imagine the swarms of bugs that would aggregate during the summer months
