Wow you got 'em. Oncologist: You have Stage 4 cancer You: Wow, that's frightening Oncologist: You've had it at least since September, were you frightened then? Brilliant argument. No longer concerned!

How does that explain ICE moving people to different jurisdictions against explicit judicial orders not to do so, and overwhelmingly to admin-friendly jurisdictions? This is a very typical strategy of authoritarians. Typical enough to be na

Many dictators were elected democratically. What's the relevance? > Also pretty sure opposition is not violently suppressed, unless they are throwing rocks or blocking roads. Which of these got Alex Pretti killed?

No it's even worse: they (the admin) are just actual stupid people.

Well no, you're proposing a cocktail of known-active compounds, presumably injected directly into a person's bloodstream. With regard to the food supply, actually if there's anything we are collecting, it's the results

Unless you're talking about trials with millions of participants, what you'll actually get is just noise. And probably a lot of death or maiming from drug interactions. Which would also make it harder to get the couple million peo

Yeah but thankfully it can be manufactured in a Hasbro factory, if need be

Aren't there like a hundred of them? And yeah, sure, it'll obviously be a collector's item. Provides no evidence to this discussion.

Why on earth would they give funding to research if the people who pay for that research (you) actively think it's scam? I'm not asking you to take up microplastic research, or even to form a specific opinion about it. I'm ac

Probably nothing good, but that's not the complaint being raised! > and anyway... the commenter is doing this for joy. so who, really, are you even talking about? I don't see evidence of that?

by estearum 3mo ago
This may come as a surprise, but some people have to ingest large amounts of information for reasons other than producing joy.

Can you describe exactly how (by what mechanism) the government would be required to even figure out whether it's a big issue, much less remediate it, if everyone had the same attitude that you do? Or are you just hoping that other peo

According to SpaceX's own filing documents, you are incorrect. They must be principally an AI company to justify anything close to their current valuation.

Again: I reckon this article is posted here not to alert people to the news about their jet Internet price hike, but as a signal into the health of a product/company that are of significant interest across the community. It seems the w

Huh? Having an interest in something is not the same as seeking sympathy. lol what a complainer you are

by estearum 4mo ago
A lot of people on this forum actually have investments in SpaceX, directly or indirectly, and they're interested in this stuff as a signal of the health of the company. Not everything has to be some little gripefest.

At least as written, GP says bought them six more months of time. Not implying they had 0 months to begin with.

Sorry but it's counterproductive to people's understanding of the causation vs correlation distinction to provide an example of the former and call it the latter.

This doesn't actually explain what the second line of the aforementioned comment has to do with the first. If you're so certain the microplastic threat is overhyped, I would encourage you to publish a paper explaining and evidenci

So the claim is that the supplement industry is involved in some type of regulatory capture that pertains to microplastics? I don't think that's true, nor is it the claim being made.

Don't think so really. Israel is totally dependent on the US still and every inch deeper into this Iran situation we wade, the more Americans fracture with Israel.

What does the second line have to do with the first? Anyone I know who is concerned about microplastics is worried about food packaging, water contamination, and clothing.

Just because you have had a bad experience does not mean the organization has no limitations on it. Just like getting into a car accident does not mean we don't put significant efforts (and successful ones!) into preventing such accide
