There are some hops based drinks that I enjoy, hop water is the most popular one. They have a few different kinds, some are very strong with the hoppy flavor and some less. They have different varieties with different flavor profiles. I lik

Saying "raise your son to be patriotic and fight for his country" is acceptable in western societies. There isn't particularly a big difference in morality when it comes to the extremes

The a/c in my apartment in Chicago is broken. It's a custom size so it's taking a while to fix. The heat is bearable, but challenging. I can see how much more efficient they make things. Just falling asleep takes much longer

That would be a much less common occurrence. It might make sense to take it "medicinally" as needed, but most people probably aren't getting cut that often. For the general population the risk of heart attack and stroke are p

Well you wouldn't necessarily expect to see lowered lifespans, as much as increased heart attacks and strokes(both caused by blood clots). Maybe lifespan would be lowered as an average, but that might be hard to separate from other tre

It's so hard to get painkillers nowadays that people with chronic pain can't acquire them. The govt listened to this kind of argument and decided to just make everything regulated rather than making everything legal. Not a big sur

Cleaning the brain is one function that is fulfilled during sleep, but it isn't the only function. Even if you can artificially induce this you would probably need to sleep for other things such as physical recovery(which intensifies d

They prayed to God that they could adapt to nature. Today people have no faith to turn to, and the system they are in is an artifical maze meant to keep them distracted. There's no hope in the modern scenario.

I don't know if this will work for you, but I've found exercise and using the sauna give me a nice temporary boost in EQ. This makes a big difference for me, enough that it's my go to strategy

This seems more in line with what I've traditionally seen emulator makers do. Extreme care to insist the program is for homebrew only, with little to no guidance on obtaining ROMs. This legal grey area has existed for a long time. I ca

The community notes? It works surprisingly well over all, although it does get gamed sometimes. Notably, one criticism is that Elon himself gets a lot of community note suggestions but they don't post.

In general he's good at not being so pushy, but that part bothers me. There's nothing explicitly wrong, but it's not a great look. And it's a little bit unethical depending on how you think about it.
