The fund manager casts those votes. They publish how they vote under a "Proxy Voting Guidelines" document. At least I've seen such documents from Fidelity and Vanguard


This never bothered me much since I can skip them immediately. I've been trained at this point to immediately skip a minute or so into every video


Looks even better with view source on a dark background


I have an EVGA 3070 and also had the sag issue. My case came with a part to support the GPU though, but I didn't realize until I solved it another way: I just doubled up those plates that you screw the GPU into so there was no way it could pivot and sag.


I had a similar thought. Plus, if you're reading the text on the internet you might just assume something written weird or poorly is written by somebody whose first language isn't English.


I had a very similar thing happen to me. I bought some AirPod Pros on sale and received normal AirPods and the Amazon order history indicated I ordered them when I know for a fact I had not. I was able to exchange them and all, but it was super frustrating.


All I could find is that we know they eat brown marmorated stink bugs[0].

"Joro spiders also appear to be able to capture and feed on at least one insect that other local spiders are not: adult brown marmorated stink bugs, an invasive pest that can infest houses and damage crops."

How much would it cost to import more Joro spiders? I'll be writing to my local representatives immediately.


Cane toads in Australia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cane_toads_in_Australia

> In June 1935, 102 cane toads were imported to Gordonvale from Hawaii

> Since their release, toads have rapidly multiplied in population and now number over 200 million (...) but also no evidence indicates that they have affected the cane beetles for which they were introduced to prey upon.


…and that’s how we end up with invasive species problems.


If they get out of hand, just bring in another species that preys on the spiders, problem solved :)


That's the beauty of it. When winter rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.


For those that didn't watch the Simpsons, this is very relevant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuiK7jcC1fY


Just like the salmon brought into the Great Lakes to take on the alewives. Which were brought in to take on the zebra muscles[0]. Which came in [bilges from ships?].

I remember visiting the Lake Michigan dunes in Indiana in the 70s, only to encounter what appeared to the small me to be mountains of dead alewife. Ten years later, my grandfather took me salmon fishing there. I'd imagine that by now, the ecosystems of the Great Lakes bear little resemblance to what they contained 200 years ago. Sad in a way, but the whole of Earth seems destined to becoming a single, climate-based ecosystem. Island ecologies may survive for a few centuries, but the main continents are going to become very consistent, with all the world-champion species holding sway.

Do you need any rabbits? Cheers from Australia


Can human be considered an invasive species? Everywhere humans go, ecosystem disruption will soon follow.


I would really appreciate if they ate the Japanese beetle as well. Those things really take a toll on my orchard in May/June


This kind of worries me wrt to my vaping nicotine habit long term


It's just now coming to your attention that nicotine might be unhealthy?


I have used Uber Eats before and they are constantly sending me emails with $30 off coupons for first time orders only. Are they hoping I give them to someone else or something?


>Also, it seems like they mix the inventory from different vendors, so it ends up being a crap shoot whether you get the original, or a knock-off, and the reviews reflect that.

I've noticed this so many times. I've stopped buying any sort of health products like supplements or even electric toothbrush heads from Amazon. It scares me seeing reviews about fake products in stuff like that


Yeah, recently I wanted a second charger for my thinkpad. I ended up just buying it on lenovo.com, because I had 0 faith in actually getting a real product from amazon, especially in that category
