The heart surgeon in
Scrubs who is based on a real-life friend and medical advisor to showrunner Bill Lawrence is Dr. Jon Turk, who inspired the character of Christopher Turk.
Here are the key details regarding this connection:
- Real-Life Basis: The character of Dr. Christopher Turk (played by Donald Faison) is based on Dr. Jon Turk, a real-life physician who served as a medical consultant for the show.
- The Name: The character’s name “Turk” is derived directly from Jon Turk.
- Character Role: In the show, Turk is the best friend of protagonist J.D. and becomes the Chief of Surgery at Sacred Heart Hospital.
- Context: Bill Lawrence often utilized real doctors to advise on the show, which helped maintain medical accuracy alongside the comedy.
Note: The main character J.D.'s name is also based on a real person, Dr. Jonathan Doris, who was a college friend of Bill Lawrence and served as a medical adviser to the show.

Ai slop from google
A genetically modified Cavendish banana (specifically the QCAV-4 line) has been developed with high resistance to the devastating
Panama disease Tropical Race 4 (TR4) fungus. The resistance is achieved by inserting a specific gene, RGA2, derived from the wild banana Musa acuminata ssp. malaccensis, which helps the plant defend against the soil-borne wilt fungus.
Key details about the resistant gene and modification:
- The Gene (RGA2): While the Cavendish already has the RGA2 gene, it is largely inactive or expressed at very low levels in conventional Cavendish bananas. The modified version (QCAV-4) uses a highly active version of this gene from a wild, resistant banana.
- Effectiveness: Field trials showed that QCAV-4 was highly resistant to TR4, with only 2% of plants infected, compared to 66% in non-GM control plants.
- Development: The modification was developed by researchers from the Queensland University of Technology (QUT).
- Approval: In February 2024, the Australian government approved this genetically modified banana for commercial release.
- Future Development: Researchers are also using CRISPR gene-editing technology in partnership with Fresh Del Monte to potentially activate the banana’s own existing RGA2 gene, rather than introducing one from a wild source.

There is already a cavendish variety that resists the fungus or what is it attacking it, but it was created using gene manipulation so it’s not allowed in the EU

Based on my lived experience I don’t think it’s as much as the brand as it is the horsepower available to you, I have owned a Kia Stinger briefly, that’s a fucking Kia, even though Albert Biermann former head of BMW’s M division helped create it, but it had a V6 engine and 370hp stock, if you put your foot down it roared and kept pulling even above 160km/h.
The thing was I bought it as a weekend fun car, but shortly after I had to change work and needed to commute to work and let me tell you, it’s hard to drive a car like that calmly. There was even a psychological effect that “I can’t let this Ford Craprerra overtake me”
And yeah, with that amount of power at your feet, everyone else is in the way and blocking you.

It’s a double edged sword in that for some people this is meaningless bullshit, in that they are struggling to pay for groceries, there is nowhere to lower their standards to.
On the other hand I have watched quite a bit of financial audit videos by caleb hammer, and have seen plenty of statistics that shows that simply put lots of people especially Americans are caught up in consumerism and live beyond their means for either status, or because that’s where they get their gratification from.
The solution is to accept that no matter what you buy you will be only happy for a fleeting moment, better to embrace minimalism and fuck consumerism, it’s also better for the planet, not just your wallet.

Oh yeah, just remembered the US has the issue with their 110v, not the best for a stove and they may need to run new cables and stuff to support one or have to have a built in battery in the stove.
technology connections has two great videos on the topic youtu.be/CVLLNjSLJTQ

If you search on the internet there is a whole ass culture war for keeping the gas stoves alive by the fossil fuel industry

You see those influencers doing fresh garlic into ice cube trays, well I found those at one of the grocery stores, now I buy those, because they are perfect for long cooked tomato sauces, you can add a lot of garlic to those and I absolutely despise the stickyness of fresh garlic when you peel it, well no more of that for me, I just take out one or two or let’s be honest, 4 cubes of frozen garlic and use that in those recipes.

Around here a bunch of people used to have a summer shower setup, which was just a black barrel filled with water up high
- Comment on How solar panels generate electricity 5 weeks ago:
My cousin (not Vinny) has solar panels to heat his water to like 50 C all year long.
And also photovoltaics for electricity.
There are also combo units that’s solar and PV in one, supposedly the water cooling down the PV panels should help keep it at optimal temperatures
- Comment on How solar panels generate electricity 5 weeks ago:
That would be for photovoltaics not solar, no?
- Comment on How solar panels generate electricity 5 weeks ago:
Where is the shitpost, solar panels do work by heating up water, unlike photovoltaics.
Solar panels are good to get a baseline amount of heated water for your home.

In mathematics, a product is the result of multiplication,
I mean, I don’t like to argue about this, since I am not a native English speaker, but there is an implied multiplication there.
