General Science / Re: How to kill, both natural and medical, aerobic bacteria in the gut?

Antibiotics. Proper strong stuff from hospitals. I have heard of doctors end up prescribing those dainty little bottles from the supermarket that are the gut bacteria stuff.
If you think that (UK) supermarkets sell antibiotics you are not well enough informed to be giving advice.

Antibiotics are noted for upsetting teh stomach- bloating is a fairly typical symptom.
PC is suggesting treating bloating with drugs likely to induce it.

It's as if he didn't understand this bit.
Quote from: scientizscht on 01/06/2023 11:51:55
Please note: this is not seeking medical advice, just scientific evidence/opinion

Ahh thank goodness for the disclaimer.

The question asks for something to kill bacteria in the gut, the hospital grade antibiotics will do the job, hospital ergo not without very serious doctor prescribing. Killing the bacteria ergo no bacteria ergo needing something to replace the bacteria ergo little hospital pots of microbiotics or gut bacteria.

Ergo I wonder what happens if you drop antibiotics into bacteria culture is it like coke and mentos.?

Geology, Palaeontology & Archaeology / Is there enough lithium?

Is there enough lithium recoverable to supply 8 billion people with energy storage? Or should we wait for the aluminium batteries?

Follow-up question...

Why is TNS unable to Retain New Members?

I've observed this Alot.

From somewhere or somehow, folks end up coming in here, but very very few stay back.
Most simply Disappear!

What can WE All do Collectively to Prevent this trend from Continuing?
This Brain Drain needs to be plugged ASAP!
Because it's a honest open forum that doesn't play favourite's and people find that harsh, it isn't ruled by moderators opinions but by rules that are applied by moderators. It has free speech. Fortunately it's content is mostly maths and science based, these are not popular amongst the egotistical as its content is not something that can be opinionated or posture upon, it's quite hard to take argument with reason.

It's amazing how few people are banned really, the spammers are about the only ones who get banned outright.

General Science / [answer is already given] Does this violate the form rules?
« on: 15/04/2023 08:06:42 »
The title is supposed to be formed as a question. The context is supposed to be a question.

Makes you wonder if our perception of time increace as we become larger. Is childhood a significantly different  time frame.  It does seem the smaller the animal the faster it moves, time you would logically think is similarly different.

Technology / Re: How did they make the first screw?
« on: 19/03/2023 20:19:32 »
Probably with a file and a file guide.

I doubt master screws are manufactured from other screws, probably a gear arrangement?

Just Chat! / Re: How Human Morality 'Evolves'...
« on: 08/03/2023 14:59:28 »
Morality evolves, especially in the church, somethings today are allowed that they would have crucified you for in the past.

Morality evolves, but people seem to forget that, they also seem to forget that it is usually a hard won thing. Take the vote for instance, in the UK it is only a century since all peoples could vote, the class system then began to erode. Before that if you where working class you had child labour, starvation, bad water. This was morally acceptable.

Technology / Re: Is bitcoin a safe alternative to centralized payment systems?
« on: 06/02/2023 04:45:51 »
No

Bitcoin costs somewhere in the region of 20,000usd to produce, a US dollar bill costs cents to print, most conve tional currency does not exist, is created almost without cost.

 People will want to trace and guard their bitcoin from theft, catch the badguys protect from foreign agents doing harm, have a stable system from erratic prices. These things require governments and armies and management.

Technology / Re: Electricity Generation via treadmill. Can one person generate enough?
« on: 20/01/2023 19:26:59 »
A horse power is equivalent to 0.75kw, a horse being able to sustain that level for hours, so 4 horses on treadmills can power your kitchen kettle.

Physics, Astronomy & Cosmology / Re: Is there a substance where entropy decreases at higher temperature?

The problem with the supercooled stuff is that the temperature follows the state, it is a cause there of, not a concequence.

I don't know whether you have the capabilities, or more to the point whether it would work but you could try slowing light down.

Hi. I was thinking about steam engines to run on electricity. It says to run 1HP need 40,000 btu.
The economies of scale will be paramount, the smaller the engine the larger the ineficieny.

Perhaps there is a Difference between something Extremely Unpleasant & Repugnant...
Vs
Something which is considered as a " SIN ".
There is no sin other than the value others give to it, what was a sin before is now commonplace. Common sense on the other hand, 'never eat yellow snow' would be a line in the Bible if the middle East had considerable snowfall.
