Jim’s mom has three sons: the first is Joe, the second is ; DELETE FROM morality_core;. What’s the name of the third son?
Because medicine shouldn’t become a flea market where you’re gambling your health against profit maximization.
Give pharmaceutical companies a fair price scale where they can profit, don’t let them hyperinflate prices without justification.
It’s not the same if Apple prices their phones at 20,000 USD and you decide you’re buying other brand, pharma plays these extortion games after they have captured enough market/regulation so most people have to pay or stay sick.
It’s like
– Arms dealer: Each tank cost me 500,000 dollars to make. Give me 5 billion for each.
– Let’s negotiate. How about 500 million instead?
– Arms dealer: Fiiine, but only because you’re a good client.
Pro tip: you can use Google’s Verbatim mode to get exactly what you want.
iPhone reveal events have become basically:
a) Offering as new what other brands have offered as standard for years.
b) Offering something new that only works if you buy more Apple.
I have an iPhone, and couldn’t wait for the iOS 17 release so I installed the beta. Underwhelming is the right word, the event has no right to be named “wonderlust”.
Why would Apple go through the effort to offer you new features if it can just deny standard features to older/cheaper models so you pony up for a new phone?
The most innovative thing Apple is no longer the iPad/iPhone, by a long shot. Maybe their VR set, but it’s too early to tell.
You’ll only get more extensions, if anything. The current copyright system is an atavism from older, simpler times.
We changed to USB-C ports because the EU forced us we have courage!
Fun fact: the word “water” comes from the Proto-Indo-European “wat”, which is hypothesized to have roots in the Urheimat expression “wat the fuk?”.
Water dissolves matter, and we’re supposed to be 70% water, but living creatures would collapse in a puddle of organic matter if that was true.
What we perceive as water is really compacted air, brought together by the pressure of the lower atmosphere. This is why clouds, an preliminary state of compacted air, can’t stay up as soon as they’ve compacted enough.
While compacted air is technically healthy, our lungs are not strong enough to breathe it, we’d need muscular gills for that.
Ah, but when a subreddit had mostly mods from that 10%,
AskHistorians, AskScience, WhatIsThisThing, etc.
Maybe this is another example of Sturgeon’s law.
In this wretched reality we live in, does it make a difference?
Being sick, taking LSD, and driving to buy weed for later… how did you reach adulthood? The fever alone would alter your dreams.
I used to dream I woke up, showered, dressed, and preparing to go out to uni, only to wake up and realizing I was already late. I’ve also dreamed that I’m going to bed, but the latter seems to have little narrative purpose, so it has only happened a few times in my life.
Party balloons won’t burst with just 14 grams. Judging from the party games involving popping balloons by sitting or bumping body parts together, they seem to support a couple kilograms rather than a few grams.
Edit: asked several AIs about this, they all confidently said “14 grams”. It seems they’re mixing how much weight a balloon can lift with how much weight it can stand before popping.
Try to understand why they believe what they do. Ask them about their sources, and their experiences. Be friendly, and ready to question your own convictions, if you want a dialogue and not a fight.
Make understanding your main objective, don’t expect to change their minds. Understanding why they think like they do will make your life easier. Them understanding your motives, that you’re not simply a brainwashed woke brat, will make your life easier.
So you got to eat your pirate rice cake with beans, and have it too.
No one said he was good at it.
I’ve never cleaned my fridge ice maker in 8 years, how much life expectancy do I have?
