I am really curious as to why you enjoy propofol: is this in any way producing euphoria? Normally you should just feel really sedated then pass out, with little difference between this experience and being just tired then asleep. is the lar

May I suggest that people who say what you say also do not understand one thing? To get excited about watching one man eking survival on Mars, you have yourself to be quite far away from any concern for your own survival here on earth. To s

Depending on how your tap water is made hot, drinking it may be ok: if you have an electrically heated tube-coil that warms the water just as it is flowing, or if you have an heat-pump system also with a last-second water-heating flow throu

Allright. The big problem with this approach is you've fully gotten rid of the invisible hand of the market, you're in a top-down economy, and inefficiencies are bound to explode..

citation needed. about them ever having done it, as an organised policy. also: beautiful propaganda, the way you formulated it with the famous "have you stopped" trick, making denial ambiguous.

Seriously, python with the requests lib in a jupyter notebook is always a nicer user experience than any REST API GUI, most importantly once it's grown a bit.

I would seriously challenge your "equivalent sophistication" statement. The human resources management of Russia's army is below WW2 Soviet's abysmal standard. The russian population is starting to notice.

It is worst than this for Russia: demographic decline was already well established before the war starred, the hole this is adding to the reproductive capacity of the russian population is going to be very hard to get out of, so the "a

I am sorry you are not very well informed. The reason France had to import was an extreme abundance of caution: one corrosion case on a safety circuit, not even the main circuit, leading to complete stop and overhaul of all plants having th

You're going to have to be more specific as to what you call a failure... Closing the Fessenheim plant even though it was in perfect condition, safe, and very useful, just for base politician reasons... is this maybe what you mean? If

I know that the situation is dire. But mark my words, no matter how many of the direst predictions become true by 2026, someone is sure to find one or several corners of the world where the prediction does not quite match, and they will the

This Arctic-News site is very interesting: the alarmism in there, with statements for example that the earth could become uninhabitable already in 2026, seem to me like perfect future fodder for continued climate-change denialism as soon as

the whataboutism is in your post spelling out an opinion that I do think is best described with this neologism, you stated that the UK author is not in a position to describe an US situation because things ain't rosy on the other side

A lot of the time when I see inflamed rethoric about "Woke" things on the web, I strongly suspect this is the work of a skilled provocateur, making sure anyone who could be radicalized into strongly opposing the presented opinions
