    I see. So the fard particles go across and up, while the shid particles are heavier and fall down. Very interesting, yes. I had assumed that the shid and fard would be homogenous, but they seperate rapidly from a cohesive solution.

    I have doubts as to the validity of the parameters chosen for this smoothed-particle hydrodynamics simulation. I also have doubts as to whether SPH is a better modelling choice for this particular scenario than FFD.

    …Unless the gentleman in question just ate a whole sack of prunes and washed them down with a bottle of laxoberal. That might make SPH a valid choice.

      The effect is very much what I get from eating gluten.

      Like a shotgun shot. BLAM

          Username does not check out.

          I tried most diets and am not 100% sure it’s actually the gluten in it, but avoiding gluten-containing foods and products has regifted me with the ability to trust a fart.

            Do you live in North America? Have you tried eating products with European wheat? I haven’t done much research into if there’s any serious research on this, but I’ve seen some anecdotal instances (including a close family member) where people seem to have problems eating wheat and do better with a gluten-free (wheat-free) diet, don’t have celiac’s disease, but have been fine eating otherwise similar foods when made with European wheat. It seems different varieties are typically grown on each continent, so I’m guessing there’s some sort of subtle impact. Again, I haven’t looked into this yet so it’s basically just anecdotal as far as I’m concerned.

              Thanks for the tip, but yeah, I am European.

              It’s called non-celiac gluten sensitivity and I just found that article a year ago or so and genuinely before being on a gluten free diet for months, I thought the same as South Park creators, that it’s more than likely just a fad and not an actual chronic health thing.

              But now since I’ve tested the difference myself, I know otherwise.

              I actually tried avoiding wheat and wheat derivatives altogether, which is kinda hard in Europe, since technically a lot of the glucose used is wheat derived, whereas in the US it’s usually from corn. And unlike in celiacs, which is an autoimmune disease, even small amounts of the allergens can give you symptoms. So “gluten free” in the EU is just any product that’s less than 20mg/kg (ie ppm). And while ofc there needs to be some cutoff, clearly that’s not enough for whatever I have. Loads of other people had complained about that specific brand’s “gluten free” as not being properly gluten free either.

              There’s one beer brand which I can somewhat drink, and they’ve always been “the” gluten free beer here, despite predating the gluten-free craze. And that I can have and not have generally symptoms, but then other brands tried doing “gluten free” as well, I tried a few and those didn’t suit me. But then again those reactions also aren’t that reliable. They’re reliable, but like… I’d say with an 80% certainty.

              I have had a gastroscopy when I was in the army so they’re pretty sure I’m not celiacs, which is why no-one ever suggested this diet to me. I basically spent 10 years wasting life due to like chronic fatigue that just fucking magically went away when I started doing a gluten- and casein-free diet (no gluten based products and no dairy whatsoever, even lactose free).

              But the doctor’s here won’t recognise it as an issue. Or as the issue I have.

              Just a thought, if there seems to be a difference between US & Euro wheat it could be a pesticide reaction rather than actually the gluten. I know you guys have a lot looser laws on pesticide use.

                Maybe, but one would think organic would show a difference then since the rules are much stricter for organic products and they seem to require some external verification to get the label. Since this is all anecdotal it’s probably worth asking if the person experiences a difference between organic and conventional wheat from North America.

    Yeah, that seems like the most standard configuration two people can be arranged (unless: someone giving a talk - about farting? - turning to the projection while the other listens?)

      I kinda imagined the person seemingly sitting down as being mid-fall, thrusted backwards by the blast. Somehow captured with arms and legs in perfect right angles at the time of being pictured, by accident
