Hmm
Botulinum toxin can cause botulism, a severe flaccid paralytic disease in humans and other animals, and is the most potent toxin known to science, natural or synthetic, with a lethal dose of 1.3–2.1 ng/kg in humans.
C. botulinum is commonly associated with bulging canned food; bulging, misshapen cans can be due to an internal increase in pressure caused by gas produced by bacteria.
🔬 Can You Test for Them?
Short answer: not easily at home, but it’s possible with effort and some moral flexibility.
You're basically doing what food safety labs and forensic microbiologists do.
Option 1: Culture Test (Danger Mode 🔥)
You try to wake up the spores and see if they party.
⚠️ THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
You’d be deliberately encouraging one of the deadliest organisms on Earth to wake up and start producing neurotoxin in your kitchen. This is “I want to be Patient Zero” level curiosity.
Again: DO NOT DO THIS unless you want to be interrogated by hazmat-suited professionals.
Option 1: Live Like a Scientist from the 1800s
Get raw garlic.
Put it in oil, seal it, and leave it at room temp.
Wait a week.
Congratulations: You’ve recreated a classic home botulism scenario.
(⚠️ DO NOT DO THIS. That’s an actual common cause of botulism. I’m including it here as a cautionary tale.)

Well Finlandaball it’s here
What do you think is going to happen if we do ever invest nuclear fission reactor capable of high power generation? Effects? Theories? Thoughts and opinions?

Nine, even though that would stop any war about oil and gas because of it becoming obsolete. That would destroy the Muslim world. That would decimated the economic parabola of the Majlis Ash-Shura and the Persian Gulf Petrochemical Industries Corporation ( شرکت صنایع پتروشیمی خلیج فارس,)

I was recently thinking about how many different shapes there are, and then I thought to myself, what the fuck? pacifically this video got me interested
there’s a wiki for stuff like this
The ones in the video are the Medial omnicircumfacetopental trishecatonicosachoron and grand 600 cell. It’s is truly fascinating, let this be the geometry thread

Is there any justification for Multiverses, and What would be the implications if we were to prove it exist? What about quantum immortality or quantum suicide?

>What escapes from us faster than the speed of light
Dark energy is in the universe making 68% of our universe it’s embedded into the universe not out of it. It definitely implies that there are different kinds of universe but that’s more for back up models. (I recommend looking at the Fridmann equations)

Is is kind of cool

If there was a parallel universe it would probably be here but more and more theories say that the universe makes “baby universes” in it. For example we a theory (black hole cosmology) saying black hole are just more universes but considering fucking Kurzgesagt made a video on it then I discredited it and if you know my sources than you know I love arXiv but there’s only two articles on there so not likely.

I actually have a book briefly discussing some universe model (How the Universe Works page 24) most of them are for one universe but there is one for at least 4 universe the “Self-Regenerating universe which teams to have a lot more backing (note this is not confirmed or may never be confirmed it’s just a theory there are plenty of other theories with more backing even if the equation describing the dynamics of these perturbations have 84 ∇s)
>in conclusion there is still possibility a multiverse but it’s probably not in dark energy
