Hello straw man. Read the story and the other comments. No one's forcing you to not eat at your desk in France, it's just making companies give the option not to. Not eating after 4pm is a very very rare condition in the entire wo

1.) No EU country requires vaccination or testing requirements for entry anymore. 2.) It's very easy to get a EU cert from a US one (I did it through Switzerland, took about... 10 minutes?). 3.) Countries have always been able to close

I had that in 2005, well after it should have been phased out. I got sick of it and just... installed Netbeans on my PowerPC MacBook Pro. My professor was shocked it was even possible.

That's not true? Maybe it is for T-Mobile, but I just bought an Orange eSim online and added it to my phone in about 2 minutes with a QR that was generated on the site.

To quote "Stephen Colbert" (in character): "Reality has a well-known liberal bias." If you discuss racism as existing, it's liberal. If you discuss homophobia as existing, it's progressive. If you discuss the i

The last one was about libxslt... which I'd be shocked if anyone is using XSLT in a production environment that is also actively maintained.

Mosquitos lay eggs in standing water and one of the major mitigation techniques is removing puddles (old tires, canoes turns upright, etc). The CDC even recommends this for prevention of West Nile (a mosquito born illness) https:/&#

There's a reason celebrity endorsements work (companies wouldn't do them if they didn't). Even if people know it's a script it's still "something they believe in because otherwise they wouldn't say it.&quo

Someone 100 years ago would think it's borderline magic, 200 years ago they would have absolutely considered it magic (electricity wouldn't come into its own for 70 more years). 3000 years ago a pocket knife would have been unbeli

Just to add what others are saying. Phoenicians (and anyone else in antiquity) would never have "trolled" archaeologists, because the concept of archaeology, or preserving the long-forgotten past, was simply not a concept until re

You never watched Sesame Street did you? They've been explaining social issues to kids since the 1960's. Of course Mr. Rodger's first episode was explaining the Vietnam War. Kids shows are and have always been political if th

Not having a large part of the world's populating confined to their couches probably plays a large part of this. People are doing other things with their discretionary money; eating out, drinking out, traveling, buying new clothes that

The number of tankies has been impressive. I'm not sure how anyone can look at Russia and think "yea, they made some good points," and I study misinformation professionally. It's not even on the believable scale.

No, that's what Bird is saying. In fact they're expressly saying he was drinking the night before . There was no ABV test done on him, so there's zero proof to their accusation. His blood showed levels of cannabis. However,
