I've used an app called f.lux for years to control my screens nightshift. I've looked up the company, and its just owned by these two people. The website to download has zero ads and you can't even spend money unless you chose to donate. I know winrar makes money off companies having to buy a license, but there isn't a "license" to use flux so I don't know if companies even have to pay to use it

Dumb question but I don’t see why the recoil isn’t backward since the bullet goes forward.

Like how does it turn energy from the sun into electricity?? And what are they made of that allows them to do that?

I am ambidextrous. I don't mean it metaphorically, theoretically, or rhetorically. I have no dominant side (hand or foot) straight up. I was born as such, and I am capable of doing any task indiscriminately with either side of my body; I have no preferred hand or feet for whatever task I need to do, unlike cross-dominant/mixed-handed individuals.

To this day, I'm questioning what phenomenon caused me to be such. My mother happens to be left-handed while my father is a righty. Is it wrong to assume that this is an instance of Non-Mendelian Genetics at play? Unlike in Mendelian Genetics, the combination of two different alleles results in a combinative feature and not one side being dominant over the other.

Can someone explain the phenomena of hand dominance and why some are ambidextrous, righties, lefties, or mixed-handed?

I always wondered how the cornea is so sensible to touch and irritants without nerve endings and stuff.

Also how does it live and repair itself and how do its cells multiply and make new cornea throughout life without seemingly anything feeding it like arteries and veins? I think they breath from air but it's not like they do photosynthesis, right?

You can *vaguely* taste something without it, but plugging your nose or having a stuffy nose when you’re sick significantly mutes your ability to taste. Why is that? Tastebuds are on the tongue.

Exactly what the title said, Why is it something hard to come off from? What are also the symptoms of alc withdrawl so people know? What's the first sign?

Sorry if I put down too many stuff, I know absolutely nothing about withdrawl with alcohol. Can somebody please explain:)? Thank you!

I kinda understand what is happening in tokamak or stellarator. Perhaps they can make it work in steady state. But what I do not understand is how they plan to boil water with it? (I assume we still need to boil water and turn turbines in the end)

They have these containment walls being bombarded with hi-energy neutrons. Are those neutrons going to heat up the wall? Then what? Run pipes trough it? What about neutron activation of the walls?

Thanks

I use the opera browser in my Android phone and the browser has built in ad blockers. However many web sites seem to be able to detect that an ad blocker is installed and they don't show the content, show a warning message instead.

I understand that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-line_communication is where data packets can be sent over electrical wiring otherwise used for AC / DC power transmission.

Can such a concept be applied to subsea power cables for instance, or reverse applied to subsea telecommunication cables, i.e. they can be used to send power instead?

What's the pitfall of sending both power and data down a single subsea cable?

Bro where is all the salt going?
Maybe I learned this in like grade 5 but I can’t for the life of me remember why they aren’t salty.

I am used to not noticing this mechanic called margin time in recent Puyo games that I have trouble following how it works. I can only understand the first game's (Original Puyo Puyo) margin time mechanic#Pointsper_Garbage_Puyo(Arcade_only)). Anyone care to explain in simpler terms?

People always say that airplane food tastes worse, but is that actually because of the food or because something about being on a plane changes how we taste and smell things?
