I'm moving to Recife :D by bergertreein Brazil

[–]lalop 2 points3 points ago

It was a stew and it was delicious. Now that I remember it was a restaurant specialized in "Pitú", a biggish crab.

I'm moving to Recife :D by bergertreein Brazil

[–]lalop 0 points1 point ago

I lived in Recife for less than a year, more than 10 years ago. The only thing I remember is the smell. And people peeing in the beach.

To be fair I also remember eating the best octopus of my life, it was a restaurant in... Casa Amarela? Don't quite remember...

Building a guitar tuner, does anyone have any experience with this? by tjballin arduino

[–]lalop 2 points3 points ago

I've played with mics and frequency analysis, but I'm no expert whatsoever.

For the mic part, I made this circuit, it worked like a charm.

For the analysis, I used some Fast Fourier Transform algorithm (FFT), but don't remember exactly which one... It also worked fine. I think I took some ideas from this guy at the time, but I think I ended up finding something easier.

Good luck and sorry I couldn't be more specific.

Catching wild yeast by maniccompressionin Homebrewing

[–]lalop 1 point2 points ago

I'm not quite sure what that is, but it doesn't look like yeast (I may be wrong). The definitive proof would be for it to bubble.

I've done this for sourbread starter, you just leave on your counter (or some "quiet" place) a mixture of water and whole-wheat flour and wait for it to bubble. It can take anything from a couple days to a week, even more. After it starts to bubble more vigorously, you just feed it with more flour.

As you are trying to catch some yeast that thrives fermenting your wort, maybe you can try a different approach. I could be wrong, but It looks to me your mixture is too sweet... Maybe you can press some juicy fruit (an apple? as jvlpdillon says) and leave it in the open for a while. Keep in mind many a times there's yeast in the fruit's skin, so don't wash it (at least not too much). Also, your local temperature plays a factor: the warmer it is, the sooner you may recognize the signs. For sourbread starter, some people recommend to leave it close to the stove or some place warm.

Good luck and post the results!

He doesn't look so successful to me, he looks kind of desperate and in need of a quick buck...

Chinese Physicists Smash Distance Record For Teleportation: The ability to teleport photons through 97km of free space opens the way for satellite-based quantum communications, say researchers by maxwellhillin science

Please do. I can only talk for myself, but I had the same understanding as Hempire.

Thinking about it, your definition is the only one that makes sense, but having the word "top" there confused me somehow...

As chemists, don't you hate when people say not to eat something because "it has chemicals in it?" by redelman431in chemistry

Cant access all of my computer. by Ryknowin techsupport

[–]lalop 1 point2 points ago

If you're on Windows 7, this seems like its default behavior.

If I recall correctly, the "My Music" folder is probably under another folder (Documents/Music or something like that), where you can access it.

This access stuff on W7 annoys me to no end...

ELI5: What causes gravity? Do we know? by stabroin explainlikeimfive

[–]lalop 0 points1 point ago

Well you were the one comparing gravitational force to magnetic force, saying that your little magnet "versed" the earth's gravity.

What if we compare both forces (earth's pull vs your magnet's pull) when the clip is at moon distance?

To be honest, I have no idea about the math, just that both forces diminish in proportion to the squared distance... which makes me wonder why the magnet wins over small distances. maybe it has something to do with the magnetic flux?

ELI5: What causes gravity? Do we know? by stabroin explainlikeimfive

[–]lalop 0 points1 point ago

Well the point was that the earth's force on the moon is stronger than your magnet's force on the clip...

But some math is needed to confirm.

Oh really? Put the paper clip on the moon and see if it moves!

One of my favorite stories from when my father was living in Brazil by IonZeroin Brazil

Funnily enough, I've always found the Caipira accent (from the interior of São Paulo) borrows a lot from american pronunciation.
