Easy fix, stop doing studies. The problem will just disappear.

Cantonese food is the best in my opinion. Not the westernised shit, the traditional greatness.

Interesting; I was in hospital last year, opioid pain relief doesn't work for me. They tried a few times at increasing dosages and it just does nothing.

Paracetamol works well, they tried ketamine and I told them to stop because it made me feel terrible.

Very effective.

The RAM section with the hand woven memory modules is so awesome. 1kb of RAM; tiny iron rings with fine copper wires threaded through them.

In the compsci building at uni, there is a museum of sorts in the hall to the labs. At the beginning of the storage section, there is a 20Mb storage device. It is the size of a washing machine, I have no idea how much it weighs, but it has to be in the 100's of kg range.

Sitting on top are much more modern devices, 5.25"/3.5"/2.5" drives; I haven't been back for a decade to know if they kept going as tech improved.

Ah yes appeal to authority. There is a reason this is a well understood fallacy; assuming something is true (or false) because the speaker says it is flawed.

There are places in the world that don't have the death penalty...just sayin
