@purplepadma , really yummy too. About 4 years ago, they just appeared in front of my mother's house, and have reseeded themselves ever since. I got three plants this year, and they took over, which is lovely. I got my 1st ripe ones just a few days ago.

I asked on Reddit, and got 5 different names for the variety, and one complaint that the skins are too thick. I think they are just yummy. Takes a few mins to pick a solid quart.

@w7voa unless they just solved a serial killing, none of those cops should see freedom again.

@StefanThinks I might switch back to cocaine because of the price of fried chicken...

@not2b, no, enough. I learned a misconception I had. And it addressed the OPs' post. The best type of thread right here.

Thanks.

@not2b @Sheril when I look at those types of experiments, I am astounded, and have a hard time believing anyone got any credible results. Atmospheric refraction should have introduced so much noise in the data that the results were meaningless. But, they still did it. I would have loved to hear the arguments that went on before anything like that was accepted. But, I'm sitting here with the advantage of having seen confirmed photos of gravitational lensing, and several million transistors in my hand. They had three sticks, and a grandparent that discovered fire. It's astonishing.

@not2b @Sheril

The other one that popped to mind was relativity and the photoelectric effect. The former made Einstein famous, the latter got him a Nobel. But ya, relativity wasn't solidly confirmed until well after his death, was it?

@not2b @Sheril excellent example. Although if I remember correctly, she was a student researcher?

@lowqualityfacts man! Imagine the videos if Space X sneaks a kilo of Bolivian marching powder there!

@davew well, he would not get the mental health care he needs...

@not2b @Sheril I had forgotten Higgs. What stuck in my mind was Bell Labs in 1964, background radiation measurements.

@Sheril Nobel typically awards based on lab results, not theoretical research. Dr Lise Meitner figured out what Hahn (et al) had observed, but the discovery wasn't hers...

Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

@flexghost @marchuff@mastodon.social , I keep asking that same question! Has he been shipped back to Cuba to keep him silent?

@flexghost , that guy has been proven to hire underage hookers. He has no credible moral standing to me.

@lowqualityfacts it creates jobs for 50% more 7 year olds.

If you don't like this, why do you hate children??
