Sorry, but this image is pure bullshit. Neither silver nor DNA are magnetic, and even if they were the "magnetic binding" would undo itself once the virus particle got away from the silver particle. Secondly, human DNA and viral DNA are in most senses the same, so anything that would affect the viral DNA would probably also affect your DNA - although to be fair, human cells are much larger than viruses so because of the distance the magnetic effect on the viral DNA would probably be larger than on the human DNA, but the problem with that reasoning is that it presumes that such an effect exists in the first place.

Now, if you wish to claim an oligodynamic effect you should know that viruses are relatively insensitive to such effects, because they have very little in the way of enzymes. Virus particles are pretty much boxes of blueprints that are delivered to the host cells, and then the host cells manufacture enzymes and whatever else they need according to the specifications.

Not to mention that just because someone claims to be skilled at something it doesn't mean that they are, Dunning-Kruger and so on. Anyone can claim to have five PhDs and an MD (with genitals big enough to frighten people to boot), providing a sample is harder to fake and easier to detect if it is faked.

What made you decide to start the firm in Sweden when you're a US resident?

Thanks for the response.

The problem is that we don't know what caused those readings. It could have been improper assaying (uncalibrated reader, test done under wrong conditions), it could have been something particular to that batch (fake/impure silver in the batch) or it could be something inherent in his work process (his methods/equipment introduces significant amounts of impurities in the silver). That last possibility is the troublesome one, as it would affect these later ingots as well, which is why it is important to know if it can be ruled out.

I do not mean to dredge up old drama, but since the issue of purity was raised about your earlier .99 ingots, have you done any assaying or similar to check/verify the quality of your .925 ingots and your work process?

No knowledge of Japanese outside of the odd word/phrase and no interest in learning, I am solely here because I enjoy watching internet drama/comedy. The reason that I am interested in that particular question is because I find the idea of someone incompetent in a language trying to teach other the very same language - sort of like the classic Monty Python Hungarian phrasebook sketch.

Having only studied the language for 1½ year would indicate that you are not proficient enough to teach it to others, but to be fair it is possible that you are a language prodigy and knowing Chinese would make it easier to pick up kanji. As I don't know Japanese I can't judge for myself, so knowing what level of JLPT you passed could act sort of as a proxy. As such it is a fair question from the point of view of a prospective student as well, they'd like it established that you fill your boots.

I fully understand that, and honestly I'm not really interested in viewing your actual certificate. If you just say "I passed the [N4 or whatever]" that's good enough for me.

Usagi, you skipped over this particular bit and I too am curious about it.

Usagi is apparently introducing see one, do one, teach one to language studies.

A bit late, but if you actually want to pull something like this it would be better to tell the owner to give you $5 each month. That way you don't have to spend say $10 of the owner's money to get 80 cents of your own. Win-win!

No.

Happy to help.

Coming from the gaming side of things, 70+ is ok but I'm not sure if I'd want to run it 24/7 (with certain cards, such as the HD4850, you had no choice though). 80+ is definitely bad.

As others have said, I would play around a bit with the fan settings if I were you. After a certain point (often 80-85% in my experience) the fans move air with equal/less efficiency and are just generating heat, wasting energy and wearing out more quickly.

Theoretically it is better for you to mine solo, as pool owners generally take a share of the mining revenue or similar meaning that you get less out of it. The big advantage of joining a pool is that it gives you a relatively steady stream, unlike mining on your own where you will have spikes of income followed by large periods of nothing.

To continue this train of thought, the Bitcoin analogy would be if Mt. Gox or similar was shut down for failing to implement AML - Bitcoin still lives on as it is entirely separate from the exchanges.
