It's GPU accelerated and fast, scrolling is extremely smooth and it looks better. It's also Wayland-native if that matters to you. I use it with Sway as a tiling manager, it's perfect.

That's a bad example but one thing that wouldn't happen is a government manipulating its currency to finance wars.

Exactly. Ensuring that no party can unilaterally issue new coins is the value proposition of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin transactions are not equivalent to payment card transactions - they are settled. Layer 1 will not be where payment card type transactions will be made in a Bitcoin based financial system.

Do you really think a startup running on Bitcoin can't be do a better job than the legacy banking system? And by startup I mean a group of people that write software in a competitive environment. Those already exist (Lightning Labs) an

I know, but that's in error: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5541280/#:~:tex... . Doctors correcting vitamin D levels are finding 10k IU is a good starter dose and that is often insufficient

I've seen it recommended by some authorities, but very timidly. There's no single answer. Vitamin D is basically a panacea, but for some reason most medical professionals don't know. Modern western medicine is on the whole ig

Yes, dosage should be 10k IU / day for starters with 5mg vitamin K2. Fat-soluble so take with a meal. Vitamin D depletes Vitamin A and magnesium, get the former from foods and supplement the latter as magnesium glycinate and/or ch

I read that in studies, including a meta-study showing no difference in mortality rate. I suppose it's not strictly "useless" as it apparently can reduce time spent in ICU in patients who would get better anyway, but in my vi

Americans probably have the worst health, or more precisely immune system fitness, in the world, as evidenced by the epidemic of chronic disease. My opinion is that, along with population density, is the only significant factor. The reason

It's the saliva, this is a pretty evident result in my view, digestion starts with chewing, obviously saliva plays a central role.

Yes, that what was I was thinking, particularly the Dutch example where heroin addiction is treated as a healthcare problem and addicts have long lives. I like that you spelled Coca-Cola "coca coal" :)
