Hmmm, I am debating about building one. I up for a game of footie if you can find 'em. From experience building one is fun, more than one is work!

I'm just trying to find a purpose for that thing. I doubt that some Empire will be after me in the near future, nor do I have any secret information that I could entrust my loyal robot with. I don't even know any rebels who would be interested in my secrets.

I quite enjoy Cracked as a time-wasting website, but in the last couple of years they've gotten a little too "activist" for my taste. It seems like every damn thing that happens in the world these days is an excuse for a rant or a not-very-interesting "exposè" piece that tells me nothing I didn't already know...
One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas, I don't know.

Don't get me started on that subject!
But yes, I agree with you - everyone's got some "message" or "agenda" to push on us these days.. 
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

And probably not so honest. A couple minutes of armchair "research":
Wikipedia:
Digestive enzymes can break casein down into peptides that have some biological activity in cells and in laboratory animals though conclusive causal effects on humans have not been established.[1] Although they have not yet been proven to be formed in the human digestive system,[2] there are associations between serum levels of β -casomorphins and the risk of sudden infant death syndrome,[3] histamine release,[4] stimulation of food intake, specifically high-fat foods,[5] and lymphocytosis.[6]
vs. "Dr. Gregor":
Casomorphin is one of the opioid compounds formed in our stomachs when we drink milk.
And you can buy hormone free milk and milk products in any decent health food store and probably "regular" grocery store if you look carefully enough.
But, being lactose intolerant (and those little lactaid pills don't really do much for me), it's goat udder goo for me! And coco-loco-nut high saturated fat ladden heart attack ice cream! (which is actually pretty good.)

If you are looking for milk without BGH it is actually easier than you think, at least in the US. The majority of dairy farmers don't use it any more. Sure it can increase yield for a bit but it also increases the likelihood of a number of problems for the cow that make milk production zero. It is just a lot of milk distributors don't put the label on the bottle.
Also, have you tried the lactose free milk? Forget what it is called but my dad drinks it. A little sweeter than normal milk because they do something to split the sugars so the body can more easily digest them.

Yes, but after not drinking milk for so many years, I have discovered I don't actually like it anymore. Oddly, I actually like the taste of rice milk or almond milk better, and I won't touch soy milk.

I'm lactose intolerant as well, which is why I drink Fairlife Milk[^]. It's lactose free.

If it's anything to do with a major food source, a cursory search will reveal little conclusive information.
Here's a little digging:
The study referenced by that line is this one: Milk and Milk Products in Human Nutrition[^]. The study was commissioned and performed by the Nestle Nutrition Institute. Since Nestle has a major financial interest in keeping people drinking milk, I find the article is about as credible as studies commissioned by the Tobacco Research Institute. What's worse is that the full text of the article is behind a pay-wall.
Additionally, I can find very little on the 'authors' of the study.

Dude everyone is a health expert because they can google stuff. People that spend too much time behind a computer with no real life experience should at least be willing to consider they're not experts in everything because of Google. Couple things, A... I belong in the stay away from dairy side for too many reasons to bother. And B... it's a joke a man. Lighten up.

Many of the screens here on code project look just fine on my Android, While others trail off the right side to where I have to have to scroll.
Is there a URL or whatever that code project uses just for smartphones?
|
|
|
|

Yeah +1
Facebook for example renders fine on my Go Flip flip phone and 2.5" screen as it redirects to m.facebook.com which I presume is the mobile view. Where codeproject.com doesn't seem responsive like that.
|

|

m.codeproject.com doesn't work here. I'll keep guessing
Mobile.codeproject.com doesn't either.

CP appears to have a custom system to handle mobile devices. It does seem a bit flaky though. I have seem similar issues. I would recommend posting a bug report.

There is the links at the bottom of the page for FULL or MOBILE, but they are only active if you are on a mobile device (think the mobile browsers put a MOBILE flag in the browser agent string)
I always use CP on Chrome with the "Request Desktop Site" check mark ticked.
