Gold prices have risen steadily for a long time, partly because of its use in electronics. Over $2500/ounce now. But another quirk of gold is the ease with which we can make very thin coatings of it over other materials, sometimes only a few atoms thick. So it is commonly used, but in very very small amounts per device.
I've watched enough Supernatural to know a demon possessed corpse when I see one.
This isn't a science related meme. I can understand you not being sure where to put it, I haven't seen a "Racist Memes" community on Lemmy.
I am not medically trained in any way, but I would say sudden noticeable losses in strength and endurance in one arm is a good enough reason to make a doctors appointment. So many issues are easier to deal with when caught early, take care of yourself!
Probably worse for Barbra than the picture is this phenomenon being named after her. I was familiar with the the Streisand Effect and who the name came from, but didn't know the backstory and hadn't seen her house.
For anyone curious.
Maybe that was literally the case, he apparently had mercury poisoning at around the same time.
It's starting to sound like a retelling of the old lady who swallowed the fly.
Someone needs to invite /u/Poem_for_your_sprog to Lemmy.
Growing crops to make ethanol is not particulatly green. In fact, in most existing production loops we would be better off environmentally to just burn pure gasoline than produce the ethanol to mix into it, unfortunately. Too much water, too many tractors and trucks, and way too much electricity into ethanol production to be worth what we get out of it. And the bit of carbon the crops sequester doesn't overcome it. Electric vehicles are by far the greenest option right now.
I hadn't heard of this movie 5 minutes ago, and now it's the movie I most want to watch this year.
Thank you, Nougat, for your guidance in these trying times.
Donkeys bray, scent hounds bay when they have a scent trail.

EVs very rarely catch fire. A vehicle with a large tank of gasoline which is burned to produce power poses a much higher fire risk.
20-60x more likely to catch fire, depending on which study you look at. My first Google result said 20x, but it was on an EV focused website, and I thought they might not be impartial. But Kelly Blue Book should be pretty good, right? Their article says 60x.

I don't think the hub of the fan was pulled over to make those grazes, I think it's more likely those happened when blades broke off or something went into the fan and was dragged over the transmission case.
As for running without, that fan is partly there for direct cooling, partly to keep grass clippings from collecting on top. Even in cooler temps, a blanket of clippings could make it get hotter than it should be.
