@MrNickFortune @mikeysmith You said "I’m not sure the UK had anything to do with transformer development." And I'm saying that's not true, several of the key innovations, discoveries and developments that went into practical AC transformers came from the UK, even if not initially used for AC transformers.

America, I love you dearly, but you need to sort your sockets out. Never once have I plugged something in in Britain and seen a spark.

@MrNickFortune @mikeysmith laminated wire cores had already been implemented in commercial induction coils, British engineer Alfred Apps had already perfected sectional winding. British advancements in dielectric insulation for induction coils were later ported over to transformers by Elihu Thomson.

@MrNickFortune @mikeysmith The first AC transformers were still toroidal open linear iron core induction coils, just with the mechanical interrupter required for DC use removed. By that point Callan's designs had already been scaled up to large elegant models for X-Rays, radio, etc. Key features like...

@MrNickFortune @mikeysmith Ireland was specifically part of the UK, unlike the rest of the empire, but yes I never said Faraday had everything ready? I said that the transformer was invented in the UK, and disputed your claim that the UK had no involvement with later AC models.

Ok? He can be the first to demonstrate transformer principles with a test, and if you want to call that the first real transformer, ok. And of course they operated on the same principles. It’s electricity. That doesn’t mean Faraday had everything ready for practical transformers, nor does it mean that the UK, even if you include half the world’s population as “British citizens”, had everything ready for commercial electricity.

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop It's far from insignificant though, it is a meaningful rise that comes with a non-zero risk, ~0.2 in 6 weeks could move you from a normal level of ~1.6mmol/L to borderline high. Of course the exact risk varies per person and with the rest of their diet, same as anything else.

@Chipzilla2k4 @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop 0.17mmol/L is not a significant enough difference for health risk. Especially combined with no LDL change and no effect on weight and glucose. In principle, would agree, but the application here is overstated.

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop Unlike many other nations across the world, UK young lads are still overwhelmingly left wing, and mostly haven't bought the divisive algorithmic slop propaganda of US billionaires attempts at foreign interference in our democracy, nor their puppets like Lowe.

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop The rape gangs were enabled by corrupt police officers. Socialist Burnham, who solved the rape gang problem, is about to be elected as an MP tomorrow, and after that will be leader of the UK within a few months. Reform and Restore cannot win against him, but yes, agree on UK lads

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop Besides LDLs, if you have a meaningfully higher concentration of triglycerides, which this clearly shows melted cheese consumption can lead to, then you are are at a meaningfully higher risk of experiencing health issues. Do you dispute any of this?

Not cherry picking. LDL is the primary driver of plaque buildup. The study itself states no significant difference in LDL (or HDL/VLDL). The TC/TG increases were there but tiny (~0.20 & 0.17 mmol/L). The authors label them ‘clinically meaningful’ based on general evidence from much larger drug induced changes, not this small dietary shift. No effects on weight or blood sugar either. Melted cheese isn’t meaningfully ‘less healthy. End of.

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop You're cherry picking again. The fact that one point and a couple of the outcomes didn't immediately change does not negate the fact that the report undoubtably found clinically meaningful changes in factors relevant to health.

The authors call it ‘clinically meaningful’ as a general principle, citing a meta on larger TG/cholesterol changes from drugs, but look at the actual data dude: LDL (what causes plaque): no significant difference Effect size tiny: ~0.20 mmol/L TC & 0.17 TG difference No change in weight or glycemic control Not meaningful for real health outcomes. Grilled cheese is still fine. Try cooking your food sometime you might enjoy it.

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop You're cherry picking one data point out of a full report. You clearly immediately jumped to critique the report before you'd properly read it and have been on the backfoot scraping at information to try to defend your position of ignorance since. No intellectual honesty.

@Chipzilla2k4 @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop You’re cherry picking the interpretive sentence while downplaying the actual results (no LDL change + magnitudes so small that they don’t matter) This is actually embarrassing how you refuse to give up

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop The US has almost twice the self reported rate of child sexual assault than the UK and you're ruled by the king of pedophiles, you just don't convict anyone for it, sit this one out, pedo enabler. You're getting engagement baited by fascists like the clown you clearly are.

All this cope from a country that used to control half the planet but is now poorer than Mississippi and still eating world war 2 rations. All your countrymen who came here are in awe at how much richer and more productive we are. Why don’t you focus on the quarter million British girls that were raped and abused by the rape gangs you let in instead of crying about melted cheese on twitter because your cuisine is a bigger joke than your sorry excuse for a country?
irmgard@gardirms

250,000+ British girls. What's included in this report is fucking harrowing: - A baby was abused and had cigarettes stubbed out on it while the mother was forced to watch; the baby was then killed. - Girls were set on fire. - Girls were sent to “red rooms” to be tortured, some of them killed, some of it livestreamed. - One girl was raped by a dog while men bet on whether it would vaginally or anally rape her. - Girls were forced to have abortions with knitting needles. - Glass bottles, keys, baseball bats, and other objects were forced inside them, some shattering. - Girls were gang-raped by dozens of men at a time in “party houses.” - Girls were whipped, hung upside down, suffocated, and urinated on. - Girls as young as 5 or 6 were tied up and abused. - Girls were locked in dog cages. - Girls were branded with an “M” for Muhammad. - Girls were threatened with being killed and fed to pigs. - Girls were mocked for wearing a crucifix during the rapes. All of this was carried out by predominantly South Asian, Pakistani men, with smaller numbers from Somali, Iranian, Syrian, Turkish, Bangladeshi, and Iraqi men. And yet perpetrators were let off, authorities turned a blind eye, and it continues to this day because people are scared of being called racist. Anyone who covered for this needs to face the death penalty alongside all of those who hurt these girls. I'm glad Rupert Lowe and everyone else behind this put this together; it needs to be seen by everyone.

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop Do you need me to walk you through what this sentence means? It is saying that the finding of the study, is that there is a clinically meaningful impact on factors that are highly relevant to vascular health.

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop LDL is 1 of 3 relevant factors to vascular health tackled by the study which states clearly: "The lipid responses observed here are clinically meaningful, as reductions in cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations have been shown to lower risk of major vascular event."

@bbrjed @top_banana3 @cowgirl_bebop No wonder your country is in a fascist death spiral, squandering its wealth making a few psychopaths billionaires while millions slave away in windowless warehouses with a terrible quality of life.

@PierreMondriet @P_Soisialach @Leannenist New council houses are still quite well built, they're just hardly built at all unfortunately. The scourge of low quality housing in the UK is one of private developers, both in the slum eras, and today.

@PierreMondriet @P_Soisialach @Leannenist Council houses were generally well built until the 1980s to be fair. Most of the good quality houses available now were built by councils, they used to build almost everything, not just council housing. Also built for low maintenance unlike private developers who build to sell.

@MrNickFortune @mikeysmith I'm not saying nothing was done in the development of commercial transformers. But Faraday is widely credited as the inventor of the transformer, and the first AC transformers were toroidal designs building on Faraday and Callans work, and functioned on the same principles.

@Chipzilla2k4 @mikeysmith So practical transformers required additional steps exactly like I’ve been saying? Yes, Callan and Faraday laid some groundwork. Still a bunch of steps after that, which *again* is my point.
