Exactly. Companies like CCBill specialize in high-risk transactions and will handle anything legal, but your fees might be as high as 14.5%! https://ccbill.com/pricing

Agreed. Any suggestion that “the banks won’t deal with $GROUP even though they could be making money” is an allegation that the banks aren’t actually very profit-motivated. This allegation seems unlikely to me. As far as I can tell, the stu

The post you’re replying to is a bit unclear - it’s talking about the risk of contracting myocarditis, not COVID.

I feel you’re taking the wrong message away here - the countries in question have more than enough doses, and can pick and choose between the vaccines. None of the vaccines are more dangerous than covid itself, but the government is recomme

I’m not really sure what your point is. Basically everything pales in comparison to war and oil - by that logic, burning trash in a barrel in my yard is fine. It’s not like if we all switched to Bitcoin tomorrow that war and oil would cease

While (editorial commentary aside) the basic facts in that article are accurate as far as I can tell, I'd be careful with that source - The Epoch Times is a mouthpiece for Falun Gong's political interests and engages in disinfo pr

This is particularly true if the “users” aren’t the ones who are signing the cheques. Sometimes shiny stuff that looks good in a product demo or on the trade show floor is what it takes to actually move units.

I’d take that one with a bit of a grain of salt - significant factions in the DND really didn’t want a hand-me-down facility in west Ottawa, they wanted to build something new across the river or downtown. There may have been strong inventi

I don’t think this is strictly true. We banned dumping of waste in the ocean even though it remains the “cheapest” way of disposing of toxic waste. Governments can make it economic for companies and individuals to behave in more environment

I don’t think that it’s “a sure fire thing that it’ll collapse in N years” or anything, but I do have to wonder if a system that concentrates power that significantly would be less long-term stable, as all you need is one less-competent sup

Does iOS have any way of telling if you’re on an unlimited data plan? If not, maybe it’s just to prevent the footgun (and subsequent bad PR) of somebody accidentally updating the OS over an expensive metered connection. But it could also be

As somebody who has those sorts of projects, all I feel is guilt when I look at the unfinished ones. At least with code you can shove it in a folder and forget about it…

Why? Don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot of woo practitioners around hypnotism, but hypnotherapy does seem to have some scientific support (even if there’s ongoing debate). It’s not like he was having his auras aligned or anything. https:&

I’m a bit surprised by the telegram one - I thought they were uncooperative enough with law enforcement to blow this off. Guess not?

I’m not sure if you’re referring to economic or lumber experts, but the more reputable economists that I saw were mostly saying that the price shocks should be transitionary. For example, https://mobile.twitter.com/paulkrugm

There seems to be a group of people who predict hyperinflation at the drop of a hat. I’m not sure if it’s paranoia or motivated reasoning though. Maybe a mix of both?

You've apparently asked a very interesting question, judging by the volume of replies! The other replies here are mostly good, but I'd also like to note that "race is a social construct" refers to how "races" a

The 747s simulated were also near-empty and flying slow, as the assumption was an accidental collision from an airplane lost in fog trying to land. They never simulated one nearly full of fuel running full-tilt.

I actually run a medium-sized sub - our traffic stats show about 50/50 old vs new, and this is the sort of sub that caters to a tech savvy, older userbase - the sort of people I’d imagine would be the core demo for old Reddit. I suspec

With all due respect, “How expensive could it possibly be to run $popular_site?” is a fairly common HN trope. Reddit has core product development, mobile apps, marketing, ad sales, anti-botting, high-level moderation, new product r&d, e

Agreed that their claim of having literally zero strains credibility. This kind of feels like gab setting themselves up for a PR stunt lawsuit.

Dumb question: why do all tumours have this in common? Do they all develop it independently? Or: Is it something that healthy cells would also do, were they to be put into the same acidic conditions? Or something else?

(Not disagreeing with your comment, just highlighting something) It’s worth nothing that the Israeli study linked identified 275 cases of myocarditis, all but ~14 of which were mild, out of five million doses - a far cry from the mass death
