I expect they had some or mostly legitimate clients. Really hard to hide a drug distribution network in the open without legitimate traffic to hide in.

That was not my experience. The classes I was required to take were technical in nature. While I was required to take electives, these could be pretty much anything from computer science to English to foreign policy. The only power dynamics I studied were between nation states.

Purebred mutt. 100% good boy.

I mean, they DO site their sources. It's in the description.

Satan has amassed an impressive list of biblical scholars ready to reveal the "standard stuff" taught in Christian seminaries: Bart Ehrman (UNC Chapel Hill), John J. Collins (Yale), Dale Allison (Princeton Seminary), Susan Niditch (Amherst), Ron Hendel (UC Berkeley), and Hector Avalos (Iowa State). This is established seminary curriculum about biblical history, biblical morals, authorship claims, and early Christianity — a curriculum never shared with the congregation.

They even show clips of those experts reading from well-cited books like Fighting Words: The Origins of Religious Violence or The Apocalyptic Imagination. You can go read those or others of multi-hundred page books shown if you want the definitive evidence, but in this case this wasn't about "here's the hard evidence". Especially since people don't change their minds if you present evidence like that.

It's supposed to consolidate information and help people start the process to questioning some things that maybe were once set in stone. Not fully change change minds or be referenced as a resource.

Care to elaborate on how? or what could have been done differently? For a free video on the internet, I'd say it's pretty good.

My mess up. I didn't add YTD. So for us right now, pretty much nothing.

But look at where you got the numbers from.

Total CBP Enforcement Actions

Numbers below reflect Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 - FY 2024.

Fiscal Year 2024 runs October 1, 2023 - September 30, 2024.

FY2024YTD is from October 1, 2023 to now, so that doesn't mean 7 days, it's more like 3 months.

EDIT: Added YTD because I derped.

You may be remembering the study from almost 10 years ago where a whole bunch of men got injections and some stopped because they got severe acne. Now, that seems like a wimp thing to do. It doesn't include the fact that some men had wild mood swings with it (doesn't happen with womens pill), one developed severe depression, and one successfully committed suicide.

I also disagree with the wording from NPR - men didn't "complain" about the side effects, they REPORTED them. Because they were on a clinical study. And that's what you do on clinical studies.

The boards overseeing the trial stopped it at that point. The men that stayed in on the trial would have kept going if they could have, even with the side effects. So no - men can and have dealt with the side effects.

"stealthing" is also a thing now. It's just women claiming to be on the pill to men instead of vice versa. Trust between two people always has to be there, and some people will break that trust to get their parts licked. It's human nature, not a man vs woman vs NB thing.

Stealthing still going to be a problem with STIs, even with a pill/injection male contraception. Condoms are still going to be necessary.

Probably not. But remember that ~4% of all death row inmates are innocent, so it may be that he didn't kill anyone.

Also, shouldn't the state be better than a murderer? Shouldn't the mere fact that we believe we, as a society, are civilized mandate allowing a death row inmate respect before they die?

I'm not religious, so I don't think praying and final words will do anything. But it won't harm anyone, and if it makes him more comfortable as he goes out, especially in light of the likelihood he didn't that to his victim, I'm not against it.

There have been some news pieces put out, but most importantly

... the Physicians Committee (PCRM) said records it obtained for the 23 monkeys used in the experiments reflect a “pattern of extreme suffering and staff negligence.” The committee said that the letter to the USDA is based on nearly 600 pages of what it calls “disturbing” documents released after the committee filed an initial public records lawsuit in 2021.

Now, CNN did link to Nueralink's site, but not to PCRM. That, to me, says a lot about who you they're supporting.

If you want to read PCRMs report, it's here. Because reading the sources is always a good idea.

I think they rested on their laurels for too long - the hybrids were so good, but they ran down that technology too far. Now they have to either do research into something else, which they're behind on, or keep pushing and hope for a breakthrough.

Backup cameras, at least in the US, are a legally mandated feature. Cars cannot come without them.

If anyone ever tries to sell you a car based on 'it has a backup camera!', be very skeptical of what else they're trying to upsell you on that's legally required.

Yes, the problem is production capacity, but it's very difficult to get that capacity up and running. For example, Intel started building 2 factories in Ohio last year. They won't be up and running until at least 2025.

This stuff is complicated and nobody predicted the rise of covid, crypto currencies, or AI, or if they did nobody was convinced enough to dedicate potential billions of dollars to building capacity to capitalize on it.

I don't think so. You can put your own money into running a political campaign.

However, the IMPLICATION that he uses campaign donations for his legal defense is there. And stupid MAGA donors will believe that's how their money could be spent and that it's OK.

Bots gonna bot And cut thing off in the mi

This makes sense, from both a manpower and long term stance.

First, Colorado is going to survive climate change much better than Alabama will. Not having to do PT at 2am because that's the only time it's cool enough is kinda nice.

Second, since Alabama keeps rejecting and making things illegal that the majority of Americans want (e.g. Abortion, porn), moving there doesn't make sense for the military. When you have to ship people to other states for medical care, it's better to just build in other states in the first place.

Don't know why this is getting down voted. Seems like some good examples of why Russia and it's troops are bastards, to Ukraine and their own people.

A duty to minimize the damage to their brand? I mean sure, but only to their shareholders.

They also have a duty to their fellow countrymen not to kill them, but that's never stopped them.

It's more that tobacco companirs have put out stuff such as the 'Frank Statement' that stuff wasn't dangerous when they definitely knew. The CEOs also testified before congress that smoking wasn't dangerous then recanted later.

It's more that congress hasn't done anything when they get lied to. Should throw those fuckers in prison and bar them from ever owning or running a company again.

i mean, 5 to 10 megabyte (40-80 Mbps) is better definitely. 25 Mbps is absolutely terrible for my partner and I if they're watching a show and I'm trying to game.
