Perfectly Replicating Coca Cola (It Took Me A Year) - LabCoatz : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDkH3EbWTYc

This content creator used a mass spectrometer to find the flavoring used in Coca-Cola.

GCMS is neat, we have a really nice one at work but don't use it to reverse engineer soft drinks. Although, if we had a bit more time we probably could.

It is with utter disappointment that I must inform everyone that, after 3 months, there is still a complete lack of "Koala Cola" imitators popping up. I want to try one so much.

Relevant quote:

> The police officer did not seem to realize that the Atlanta man hadn’t posted a photo of the shooter, just another T-shirt with the same design. But the cop did know he’d sent the image to the private chat. Given that the call came from the same city as the eBay seller, it wasn’t clear how that police had access to his private Discord chat.

> The FBI, or the intelligence community, evidently is monitoring Discord private messaging, even from people who have broken no law.


I don't know who Ken Klippenstein is - how much fact checking do we think he did here?


He's a very good investigative journalist and is credible. He often breaks big stories.


From cursory background, he seems to be legit.
