That is salmiak flavored licorice, it’s not salmiak. Just like a bag of paprika flavoured crisps says ‘paprika’ on the front, doesn’t mean that paprika is another word for crisps.
The only relation between licorice and salmiak is that it’s used to flavour a specific type of licorice.
It’s also used in fertilizer, as flux for soldering or galvanizing metal, in batteries, and lots of other applications.
You can also buy salmiak powder as a form of candy on it’s own.
No. It is added to certain types of licorice candy to add flavor but salmiak is it’s own thing.
But it tastes nothing like salt and licorice. It tastes like salmiak (a.k.a. ammonium chloride). Who hasn’t had salmiak at least once in their life?
Cats with the unusual coat – known as ‘salmiak cats’ (which translates as ‘salty liquorice’)
A better translation would be ‘ammonium chloride’, because that’s what salmiak is.
In the same vein, stop drawing dead butterflies
Another thing that’s crazy about trees is that there is no such thing as a tree, phylogenetically.
As in: there is no branch on the tree of life for trees. There is no first tree from which all trees are descended. There are trees that have a common ancestor that was definitely not a tree, and there are there are plants that are definitely not trees that are descended from trees.
If you look at the tree of life for plants, you see trees evolving into other types of plants and evolving back into trees all over the place.
Taste like crab, talk like people.
Second most abundant doesn’t really convey how much more abundant it is compared to other elements.
About 75% of all the mass in the universe is hydrogen, about 23% is helium, 1% oxygen, and that leaves just 1% for everything else.
Bumble’s new verification feature lets users submit a picture of a government-issued ID to authenticate their identity
ID verification using a picture taken of the ID is practically worthless. It is trivial to fake.
That’s not how science is performed
Starship is not a science project. No scientific breakthroughs are made or expected. It is an engineering project. And this is exactly how that is performed.
Also, how many people crashed how many planes before the Wright brothers managed to achieve powered flight ?
You forgot Today and Tomorrow.
Well, if he wants to follow that logic: Tesla’s CEO didn’t make billions of dollars, his workers did.
The goal is not to find the guilty party, it’s to punish someone.
Canada should just shut down energy delivery to the US.
Or just raise the export tariff on electricity by 1% a day. They’ll shut if off themselves when they realize they can’t afford it at a 300% markup.
Why would you need to take your stuff home?
No, crashes in the US happen because Americans are shit drivers. They are shit drivers because you get a free driving license with box of cereal. Germany on the other hand has one of the strictest driving tests there is. A German with a driving license has had many hours of instruction from a professional instructor.
In addition, American cars are shit. Lots of poorly maintained and unsafe vehicles on the road with very lax regulation. By contrast, German cars have to pass a very comprehensive yearly safety inspection.
There are also a shitload more humans now. Even if number of horses per capita is lower, the fact that there are more people may compensate for that.
