This reminds me of another point.  Lactose intolerance in adulthood is a relatively uncommon occurance in humans, which is why it's considered a medical condition.  Whereas, every other mammal loses the ability to properly digest milk of their own species shortly following infancy, including actual dairy cows.  Lactose intolerance in human infants is far more rare than in adulthood, also.

This also implies; both from a scientific/evolutionary model and from a religious/creationist model; that humans are generally evolved/designed to consume dairy products, for the inability to do so in adulthood is abnormal.

Quote
Most mammals normally become lactose intolerant after weaning, but some human populations have developed lactase persistence, in which lactase production continues into adulthood. It is estimated that 75% of adults worldwide show some decrease in lactase activity during adulthood.[5] The frequency of decreased lactase activity ranges from 5% in northern Europe through 71% for Sicily to more than 90% in some African and Asian countries.[6] This distribution is now thought to have been caused by recent natural selection favoring lactase-persistent individuals in cultures in which dairy products are available as a food source.

On another note I wonder why buying raw breast milk is legal in the US?

Never any shortage of troll on the internet. It's even worse on an unmoderated forum. Try the ignore function if you're unhappy.

Only 1 right now.......but considering if BFL ships this month or even next is the hardware really worth it ? Imo no,unless it was even more effecient.
Electricity is included with my rent so I don't care about efficiency. I'm thinking about buying a BFL unit but I really don't like their business strategy and PR. They said to be shipping next month for about 6 months now. There is no guarantee that the chips they received are working and the shipping delay for someone who purchase today might still be longer than Avalon. Best strategy is probably to buy both. Don't forget to buy BFL with PayPal in case they don't deliver within 6 months.

Once you start adding up equipment, your landlord will be asking questions. I'd keep an eye on the counter.

Having a 10KW operation cannot be considered "fair use" and it can get you kicked out of your house.
I'm only planning to run 1 Avalon and maybe 1 BFL single SC. Who is talking about 10KW? Anyway, I'm moving soon at my school 180 rooms dorm. I would be very suprised they notice and care about a 700W load at 0.08$/kWh.

I've drank some when I was younger. Pasteurised milk they sale at the grocery taste like it's diluted with water. Now I'm only drinking almond milk.  Tongue

If you guys want to die of food poisoning, that's fine with me.

This is milk cartel propaganda.

It’s also important to note that the outbreaks and illnesses associated with dairy products are generally mild compared to other foods. According to the CSPI report above, approximately 5,000 people are killed every year by foodborne illness. From 2009 − 2011, three high profile outbreaks involving peanuts, eggs and cantaloupe alone accounted for 2,729 illnesses and 39 deaths. (1) Yet there have only been a handful of deaths from pasteurized dairy products in the last decade, and there hasn’t been a single death attributed to raw fluid milk since the mid-1980s, in spite of the fact that almost 10 million people are now consuming it regularly.

You should call your CC company. I've read that some apply different chargeback policies.

Within 6 months. Yes.

They NEED your money to assemble batch #1.

Go give your hard earned to the Chinese but do not expect anything (except a headache) from them in return!

I tried bitZino roulette with playmoney because I was curious about the "Provably Fair" system. First try it landed 13-14 times (don't remember exactly) in a row on black. Highly improbable but not impossible.

Media sez 2 dead, 600 or so light injuries, mostly due to broken glass etc. Very few serious injuries.

This video has footage of the impact side. It is actually a factory and building where I used to have  "work practice" while in school.


This is one of the crash sites:

Second video might be a hoax.
