I feel like it might be the taste too, I don't think most people would as excited to eat mashed/boiled potatoes as they would be for french fries because it doesn't taste as good and perhaps the amount of salt added to the french fries make people crave for more

The main reason is because the crime was so bad that even their ghost will have to serve time in a containment unit for the specified time after they die.

This logic makes sense but it doesn't.

Why not just make all the ports USB 3.1? Even if they are all used for USB 3.1 high bandwidth devices, the odds that all these devices will use maximum throughput at a rate to saturate their PCIe lane access is near zero outside of /r/homelab situations. And most will be low bandwidth (HIDs, etc) anyway.

If they were all 3.1, you'd at least have the convenience of always getting a 3.1 port and functionality (barring intensive oversubscription of the PCIe lane).

To me this argument reminds me of my electrical panel. I have 200 amp service, which means I should only have about thirteen 15 amp breakers. Less if I'm feeding the 30 amp AC compressor and have to subtract 2 to make up for it. It's not like I'm going to install 5 amp breakers to keep total load potential below the main feed rating of 200 amps and then I can only use that one 15a outlet for appliances in my kitchen.

IMHO, still including USB 2.0 ports is a dumb legacy design that has few real world benefits and creates user inconvenience. I'm sure there are niche applications (industrial PCs with bad USB devices that puke on 3.1 ports), but that's like making everyone use a cane because some people have mobility problems.

Interestingly airlines are actually upgrading to allow bluetooth! I was on a flight recently where they still had the headphones and jack but you could connect your own device via bluetooth instead.

If I understand the summary of this study correctly, eating boiled potatoes doesn't satiate more than eating fries, at least if you use an equal mass of potatoes. The amount of oil increases the amount of calories in the fries a lot though and I can imagine that the shape of the fries makes them look like they're more than they are. Potatoes are big and stack densely, but french fries stack rather loosely, so if you fill bowls of the same size, the bowl with fries will be a lot lighter than that with boiled potatoes.

Thanks for the advice, I only eat whole food (a lot of fruit) and some people will tell me just how bad fructose is and that fruit is just sugar and all that. Even when I google stuff it’s 50/50. Some people are very against fruit for some reason lol

What? Well colour me embarrassed. I been saying saying “Can Saw” and “R Can Sass” ever since that one guy in a bar got all pi$$y at me…..

In the year following 9/11, Americans were so scared of flying that more additional people died in road accidents than were killed on 9/11

It’s because of water content, most likely. A common comparison I used to see was “are you going to get full faster on grapes or raisins?” They’re the same thing basically but one is dried. Because of that it takes up less volume and mass and can fit more compactly in the stomach per calorie

It does not always mean that. In some countries a life sentence is literal and without parole. So unless pardoned you remain imprisoned for the rest of your life.

Thank you!

Consuming fruits is VERY different from eating candy. The sugar is complexed with the fiber, which slows down absorption rates and "flattens the curve" of the blood sugar spike. Fruits also contain essential vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients. Fruit juices? Might as well be soda. An apple or a banana? Do it up!

'Learned Reflex' may be more understandable than muscle memory.

Love you too :)

Not OP but: why? This question absolutely has perfectly objective answers to do with the physics of heat transfer. OP isn't asking "why do I feel colder than my parents in the same situation" (which would be subjective), they're asking "why do the same people feel colder in one environment than another, given the same temperature"?

Moisture content? Honestly no idea but now I'm curious too.

Fun fact. The name a country gives itself is an endonym, and the foreign name is an exonym.

Mine centers around parties and other gatherings that tend to have sugary foods, but get kids very excited and zipping around with their friends, then the parents blame the birthday cake.

Agreed 10000%, but that is a separate topic.

Cola and Mountain Dew impersonators, yes. Not in Lemon-Lime sodas or ginger ales. But the question was about sugar, not caffeine.

Teacher: Ok Billy why don't you get up and go answer the math question on the board?

Billy: Give me a few minutes....

haha thats really funny (i'm also joking)^((or am i?))
