It’s not to do with breaking thermodynamics. The grains of salt simply act like little so-called “nucleation points” where the bubbles can form easier. That’s why you’ll often see the water suddenly boiling and bubbling violently just as you add salt.
The water was “superheated” above the boiling point, but didn’t have imperfections in the pot which allowed the bubbles to form easily.
I completely agree! I guess there are more people on Lemmy using android than iOS. It’s a bit more in line with the ethos I guess? And Mlem is only iOS.
I used to be android as well, but honestly I won’t ever go back I don’t think. But to each there own
I second that! It’s great. I tried a few different ones at the start, then tried Mlem and never looked back.
I wish I could updoot (what’s the Lemmy term again?) twice! Sumatra is the GOAT on windows. And as I recently found out can be installed without admin-privileges, meaning I could install it on my work PC and get away from the horrible mess that is Adobe Acrobat!
Du skriver du kunne lide noget Sci-Fi, det er ikke noget jeg selv har læst meget af, men kan anbefale “Den sorte tåge” af Fred Hoyle hvis du kan finde et eksemplar. Jeg tror den fangede mig som få andre bøger.
Er lige blevet færdig med Robert Harris’ “Fatherland”, super velskrevet og interessant “alternative history” om hvordan verden kunne være hvis Tyskland vandt 2. verdenskrig, skrevet af en historiker. Og så er det bare en god historie synes jeg.
Hvis du ikke har læst Jan Guillous “Det store århundrede” serie er især de tre første vildt gode i min mening; “Brobyggerne”, “Dandy”, og “Mellem rødt og sort”.
Også “Sæt en vagtpost ud” af Harper Lee er fantastisk!
Sidst men ikke mindst er Anne Franks Dagbog faktisk yderst anbefalelseværdig. Føles på en måde mere relevant for tiden. Købte den i Anne Franks Hus i Amsterdam i sommers og er endelig kommet til at læse den.
I second this, it’s a great podcast for chores
I don’t have as much time to listen to podcasts at the moment. The only one I’ve continued listening to is “Well There’s Your Problem”, it is sooo good. Just my kind of humor!
Honestly, this comment is gold! Informative and great fun. Absolutely brilliant, especially the last part! I literally laughed out loud 😅
Dette kommentarspor tilhører nu Kongeriget Danmark! 😀
Not only is it generally harmless when eaten, it is in fact allowed to be added to food in up to 5% concentrations in Europe, 2% in the US. The FDA lists it as “Generally Recognised as Safe”. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silica_gel#Uses
I suspect that the whole “Do Not Eat” is partly because the Silica Gel in the little bags is not made to food safe standards, but that’s just speculation on my part
They actually aren’t in Russia but either Georgia or Azerbaijan I don’t quite remember which for that specific scene. But I believe Georgia.
Although that might change in future I suppose. At least Russia seems to want that… sigh
Back in the early 2000s the people responsible for maintaining the national forests of Denmark, wrote to the navy that the oaks planted after the British destroyed the danish navy during the napoleonic wars, were now ready for shipbuilding!
I always thought it was quite amazing that the knowledge that these trees were set aside to rebuild the navy survived in the institution for some 200 years.
