They are wrong and are severely mismanaging Lyme. For example, the blood test endorsed by the CDC shows a 53 % sensitivity yet they claim testing is adequate. In reality, it's not much better than flipping a coin. They also claim ther

A lot, probably the majority, of the games in my steam library are still 32-bit. I wonder how many I'll lose if I upgrade to Catalina.

No, it does not and since China banned garbage imports last year we will see soon enough if the theory that China is dumping Western plastic in the ocean is correct. If that's the case, we should see a sharp decline in ocean plastics i

The western world is responsible for 1,25 % of all ocean plastic pollution. Europe is only 0,28 %![0] There is no need to ban single-use plastics in the West. It's just virtue signaling and the so-called 'solutions' lower our

"For many of us, such one-off encounters have become a regular—sometimes even daily—form of “debate,” especially on social media, whose dynamics encourage rhetorical stakes-raising. The idea that two people acting in good faith can loo

Why India? If we're gonna move everything we can as well try to move it closer to home. Europe/USA. But it will take longer than 2025.

This is the story behind Replika. "Three years ago, Kuyda hadn’t intended to make an emotional chatbot for the public. Instead, she’d created one as a “digital memorial” for her closest friend, Roman Mazurenko, who had died abruptly in

You equal criticising religion to white supremacy? That's really troubling.

How is being poor an excuse for throwing your trash in the river? A cart, a horse and you have a garbage truck. Add some plot of land where you can dump the garbage and you have the mvp of a garbage management system. I'm having a har

Because it's worse for the environment to ban plastic. And who likes to be taxed more? A new Danish study claims that low-density polyethylene (LDPE) has the smallest impact on the environment. Meaning plastic bags are more environmen

The West isn't forcing them to dump everything on the street or in their rivers. That's on them. Besides, if you look at pictures or videos of rivers drowning in plastic, it doesn't look like industrial waste at all. https:&

We are. We have recycling programs, we have fines and social pressure against littering, city workers cleaning the streets. Those simple things can reduce almost 90 % of ocean plastic.

There seems to be a movement now in the West to ban plastic bags and put higher taxes on plastics among other things. This is pointless as the West is only responsible for a tiny fraction of the plastic waste in our oceans. The study linked

The weird thing is Tinder and Okcupid both have the same parent company, Match Group. Why do they want two similar apps?

Maybe there is no correlation because Lyme disease is severely underreported. A couple years ago, the CDC stated that official numbers were likely underreported by a factor of 10. From 30,000 yearly cases to 300,000 https://www.
