  • If I were to research this, I would get conflicting answers likely being between Yes there are, or No, more people are just being diagnosed neurodivergent.

    Personally, I am kinda starting to believe everyone is somewhere on some kind of spectrum. The brain is horrendously complex and less well known and proven disorders, it seems kinda silly to try and classify what “normal” should be.










  • Lol, no. Most of maga can’t even spell Europe, so all of those things you list, while true, are way beyond their comprehension.

    The politicians just point at European countries and say they stupid because they talk funny and they are stealing from you. (It doesn’t matter if that is true or not, it’s just “someone else to blame” for made up problems.)


  • Alumina (aluminum oxide) is what you are extracting from aluminum ore and it’s tough as fuck, which is why it’s easier to dissolve the rest of the stuff around it first.

    Oxygen is mainly that other “junk” you have to separate with electricity. While the smelters only run at 4.5 volts (per cell), they have to push about 300kA to get the stuff up to ~950°C which breaks its chemical bond.

    You probably have never even touched pure aluminum before. Aluminum and oxygen react so quick, all we typically ever see and touch is a alumina shell.

    Speculating, of course, I would say there wouldn’t be enough change to get a perceivable effect through other kinds of noise at the scale we are talking about. Yes, there would be an effect, but with all other environmental variables included, the results may appear completely random.

    Then again, I suppose much of this boils down to the accuracy of the tools that you use to measure the results.
