> As long as the soap isn't antibacterial, it shouldn't exterminate everything.

All soap is antibacterial.


This is true. Soap's purpose is to literally break down the cell walls of bacteria, some are more resistant so antibacterials are needed depending on the constituents of the cell wall


> Palmitic acid is the first fatty acid produced during fatty acid synthesis and is the precursor to longer fatty acids. As a consequence, palmitic acid is a major body component of animals. In humans, one analysis found it to make up 21–30% (molar) of human depot fat, and it is a major, but highly variable, lipid component of human breast milk.

> The problem, researchers say, applies to Visa cards set up in 'Express Transit' mode in an iPhone's wallet.

> "Express Transit" is an Apple Pay feature which enables commuters to make quick contactless payments without unlocking their phone, for example touching-in and touching-out at a London Underground ticket barrier.

At least this does not apply to all VISA wallet cards.



That's interesting. Thank you!


Would be cool if they'd release this for ARM too. The Pi, Cubietruck and all the other dev boards would run this nicely.


From what I remember, there are ports to RaspPi but a major issue is getting graphic acceleration working. Not sure what the current state of it is.


There definitely are Android ports for RaspPi and other ARM boards, but I don't think there are RemixOS ports for these, which I would like.


There is a ppa that makes the Unity-2D launcher the same size as the icons: ppa:lucazade/ppa at https://launchpad.net/~lucazade/+archive/ppa

I use it and have no problem or crashes.
