Near the bottom, there’s pictures from the post the article is describing. Also a lot of (blank for me) ad spaces to get you to see ads before the content you’re looking for.

The placebo effect exists for a reason. Also, smiling makes you happier.

Regular blood donation goes through the Red Cross, which is a nonprofit. This plasma donation happens through private companies though.

Possibly “donation” because the payment isn’t guaranteed? I mean this in a way that the company is using to protect itself.

"Rejecting Tehran’s conditions, the U.S. president warned that if Iran failed to adhere immediately and unconditionally to the original text of the memorandum, Washington would reactivate tougher options and its maximum-pressure campaign.

The publication of those statements in the midst of the Lucerne meeting delivered the final blow to the negotiations. The Iranian delegation viewed Trump’s remarks as an open violation of Article Two of the Islamabad Memorandum, which prohibits any form of verbal threat."

If you deny this happened, then say so in a top-level comment and give reasons why we shouldn’t trust this article.

It’s quite thin for aluminum, and the downside with glass is the high energy cost of melting it. I’d like if we went back to washing and reusing bottles, but I suppose that’s a big shift in processing capabilities.

So that would correspond to a min wage of $20 per hour, whereas people were bitching hard about my area going up to $15.

If wages kept up, I think a lot of things would be easier. As is, ya got too much greed up high.

The partyhats were a limited time item available through the consumption of “Christmas Crackers”, which you had to open with another player. They were only available for one season way back, and were tradeable. Because they could be traded to other players, and because they were limited, they shot up in price, and their cost only grew as inflation occurred.

I had the goal once of gaining enough gold to purchase the cheapest color (purple, coincidentally my favorite), and by the time I had enough gold, the price had risen by 100x what I had saved.

The company has made a point to not allow any limited-time items to be tradeable since.

I’m sorry on their behalf. Thank you for providing a viewpoint of someone who’s affected by this; we all need to keep in mind that war is not a good thing.

Huh, it’s like the Prisoner’s Dilemna, but there’s no benefit for cheating. If both sides don’t use AI, it’s fair. If one side uses it, they lose. If both sides use it, they both lose.

In the instance where only one side uses it and verifies the information, they might win because they’d be using it as a work multiplier, presuming both sides have equal capabilities.

Yeah, where did those cans go? I’m disappointed each time I try to find em at the store :/

I think they were using the technique of adding periods for emphasis:

AS. IN. THE. CASE. OF. NORMAL. SENTENCES.

They must have missed that that’s not the way you’d emphasize a word by spelling it, and should instead have typed Z-E-R-O.

Sweet, thanks for the info!

I was unsure of the effect of the dead-blow, since “minimizing damage” and “same driving force” sound contradictory to me. The latter makes it sound as if both would drive a nail to the same depth, and I was thinking the beak is effectively a nail. I’m glad the paper mentions concussions, and I’ll give em that bird and primate brains are probably similar enough in that respect.

Odd that the tongue wraps around though. I’d figure it would just slide down the neck, since that seems closer to what we have.

Your link says the page does not exist.

By my thinking, the damage to the brain could outweigh the better foraging. Then I thought that the brain mooshing into the front of the skull later in the peck would turn the head into a dead-blow hammer, which are still quite effective hammers.

“A dead-blow hammer delivers the momentum over a longer period, resulting in less peak force, but similar total driving effect for the same head weight.”

I’d think it more likely that they wouldn’t admit to doing a false flag. It seems like they think they’re in the right. I haven’t heard about that, though.

Maybe… “Unfortunately, we aren’t going to hire you”? People are having tough times finding jobs, so that’s my guess. Though that would indicate OP is the one writing it, so I don’t know.

I learned a few good lessons from him. Most apropo one nowadays is “The man who least wants to lead is the only one fit to do so.”

In fact, hold the bread.

That reminds me, I got a tip once to use butter as coffee creamer. I didn’t enjoy it, so I decided to try bacon grease to see if it would make it worse.

It did.

All manual, alphabetized to speed up the process (to around 16 hours; totally worth it). Man I want more maps!

You either die a Netscape Navigator, or you live long enough to become a… any of em, really.
