i Kind of doubt it. in a video i saw if the process they were using hardfired bricks. i don't believe any organic compounds would survive the heat.

(dung might be a better term for what you were referring to. i seem to remember that because of the way they feed their cattle the dung has a very high fibre content which makes it a good source for building material. it's nowhere as gross as the diarrhea like consistency we get from cows in Europe)

I've never smelled the stuff but apparently the smell of rain is something people try to bottle.

what's with the femur? is it on purpose?

likely not. alcohol is produced by yeasts who convert sugars to alcohol. pickle brine has likely too little fermentable sugars and a too low pH. so unless you dilute the brine heavily and then add more sugars (and most likely extra nutrients) nothing is going to happen.

But: you could make a sort of vegetable wine https://homestead-and-survival.com/16-best-fruit-herb-and-vegetable-wine-recipes/ and a) don't wash your hands or leave it uncovered during fermentation (you will get acetic acid producing bacteria) or b) at some point during fermentation just add enough pickle brine to stop the fermentation.

but why on earth would you want to do this?

if it's the vinegar you are after just make a shrub https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrub_(drink) and add some spirits of you choice

an interesting book on this topic is Gildea, Robert. (2015). Fighters in the shadows: a new history of the French resistance. Faber & Faber: London, UK

it shows how different people from different walks of life joined "the" resistance (and how pluralistic the resistance and it's people really were). a common theme, though, is that most were active in the pre-political sphere.

the abstract of the PDF provided in the link has more commas. (not sure if any of the terms mean anything though. i know jackshit about any of this)

someone fucked up the commas

this is my impression. back when i still was in academia it would pop up from time to time but i never published there since i never cited any of their journals in the first place. (why would one publish there when all your peers are somewhere else). nowadays i sometimes get requests from them to my personal email for special issues which i just ignore. (it's academic spam essentially).

have a look at retraction watch https://retractionwatch.com/?s=mdpi

maybe try grundstoff.net (German company). their stuff is rather plain but t-shirts are available in very heavy fabric. i like them but I'm not sure whether it's any good for when you work out (i sweat a lot when I'm skating).

thanks for the tip. I'll have a look at what they have

Okay, now its getting ridiculous. Just measured the leg opening of my current pair, its 17''.

Browsing through their website, i noticed, that leg opening appear to vary with color, approx. 1". Then i thought, maybe, i try my luck in different european stored (spain, belgium, netherlands). Same pattern, but then i noticed that i still had a tab for the US store open. Apparently, fit also differ between countries.

E.g. 501 Style # 005013411 in the US

How it Fits

Regular Through The Thigh
Sits At Your Waist
Straight Leg
Front rise: 11 1/4",Knee: 17 1/2",Leg opening: 16",Measurements based on size 32

in Spain

How it Fits

501
Sits At Your Waist
Straight Leg
Front rise: 12 1/4''
Knee: 18 5/8''
Leg opening: 17''
Measurements based on size 32

I just want a pair of jeans ffs

thanks for your reply. the thing is: all 501 100% cotton i tried have a smallish leg opening although they are called "straight leg". these work fine when worn with shoes but sit too high when worn with biker boots. the ones i try to find again have a wide enough leg opening to fit the boots and rest in the heel. it's really weird. and they really are 501 not boot cut, i swear
