Eh, I don’t even want to give credence to Carlson’s garbage by repeating it. But even if we imagine Otto Frisch was somehow there alone making drawings in the snow, we still know when it happened.
Of course we shouldn’t do that. Meitner was by far the more experienced scientist and expert on the topic.
Marie Curie didn’t discover fission; that was Lise Meitner and her nephew Otto Frisch and colleague Otto Hahn. But yeah, same problem. Meitner was left out of the publications and overlooked for a Nobel Prize.
Curie was brilliant but she didn’t discover fission.
This isn’t ancient history, it was less than 100 years ago. Links in my top level comment, but the answer is that nuclear fission as a concept emerged right around Christmas 1938.
Ice cream is far older, with early evidence of chilled dairy desserts from the Tang Dynasty ca. 618-907 CE.
In case anyone wants the answer, it’s late December 1938, when two physicists went for a walk in the snow near Stockholm to discuss findings a colleague sent via letter.

I expected the punchline to be “for me to poop on”.
I’m sure that would cause a significant portion of the playerbase to react with angry and hurtful messages. Then poor Blizzard would have no choice but to wipe their tears with their massive new pile of hundred dollar bills.
Why is it still not on F-Droid?
Also, for all the customization it can do, man those are some ugly and generic screenshots.
I appreciate that. I have a partner who is on the spectrum and has ADHD as well.
I was only joking in the pedantic style often associated (rightly or wrongly) with autistic traits. ASD is the official DSM-5 term. Of course being a diagnostic manual, that focuses only on behavioral deficits. As I understand, the DSM gets plenty of criticism because like you mention, it omits all the interesting ways folks cope or even creatively use abilities like hyperfocus for positive outcomes. But on the other hand, I’m not sure successful behavior requires any psychological treatment, so that may be unnecessary to include in the first place.
Anyway, I think this is one of many situations where simple terminology doesn’t capture the full nuance of reality. So apologies if that came across as crude.
Akshually it’s called Autism Spectrum Disorder

What’s fucked up is that this was actually a popular thing to do in Victorian times.
Retro Games Corps got hit, even though Russ only does legal emulation and backups. It’s his “2nd strike” on YouTube (3rd is channel deletion). He’s always been mindful of the situation and considerate of not spoiling games or encouraging anything close to piracy from what I’ve seen.

Different chili varieties definitely have their own flavors. Even blindfolded you’d probably be able to tell apart sauces made with poblanos vs banana peppers (both can have basically zero heat).
Chilis have a natural variation in heat, which depends a lot on growing conditions. Jalapeños can range from ~2000 to 8000 scovilles. The hotter ones don’t taste different, they just have more capsaicin. That molecule itself has no flavor, it just triggers the heat receptors in your cells.
Maybe your perception of the heat has gotten entangled with the flavor so cognitively one is less satisfying without the other. But that’s specific to your perception and not how it works at the chemical level of the plant or human sensory cells.
So buy the regular variety? They’re far easier to find.
I needed this. Thanks.
lol, fair enough!
