title of post is "US will ban", title of article is "Trump threatens to ban". OP why are you misleading people?

what was the second diagnosis?

RFK is insane about a lot of things but I've been eating roughly like this with a focus on lean protein and fresh produce and I brought myself back from the brink of prediabetes and basically got rid of my sleep apnea. Besides, the last food pyramid was just as worked by industry lobbyists as this one is. That's the problem with tolerating a little bit of corruption: the difference between you and the blatantly corrupt goes from being a difference of kind to merely a difference of degree.

is there somewhere where a majority or a plurality of mortgages come with a prepayment penalty?

The UK.

i'm okay w importing workers if they're treated the same as domestic workers. its the system we have now that incentivizes importing and abusing workers by somehow pretending that employers have no role at all in illegal immigration and only punishing the immigrants that fails miserably at everything immigration policy says it's supposed to do.


How's Swiss immigration policy failing Switzerland?

Of course land and real estate is limited, they can't keep growing at these numbers.

But stating that it's failed till now, is just a statement of "I've never lived in Switzerland and I have no clue what I'm talking about".


Ahh, but the purpose of the system is what it does. Would employers and countries import immigrants if they had to treat them the same as domestic workers?


and thus the solution to illegal immigration and "immigrants taking our jobs" is to treat immigrants fairly. sounds like a win/win, no?


>non-explicit nudity

that's a pretty heavily-worked little phrase. What is "non-explicit" nudity? That sounds to me like starting at the violation and then working backward to ensure that the people they want to be violators turn out to be violators.


Covered in the article (I realise, of course, that it is most improper to read those on this website). Stylised drawing of two humans with the naughty bits obscured based on how the picture was framed. However, that seems to have only been one account in any case and is probably not the thing to focus on.


i'm aware of the picture. i was trying to bring focus to the fact that no one has an intuitive definition of "non-explicit nudity" because these policies are kept intentionally vague so that anyone can be in violation at any time for any reason and the selectiveness with which they're enforced means that they can always be used to accomplish authoritarian goals with a fig leaf of non-authoritarian reasons for banning people.


according to wimhofmethod.com their breathing exercises are meant to increase oxygen levels, not decrease them


Wim hof breathing is both hyper and hypo.

You hold your breath and then breath intensely in an alternating pattern


At the end your blood is very oxygen rich. It is incredible


lets do austerity for the wealthy first. we give them money hand over fist, in fact we've never met a problem we didn't try to solve by giving the rich more money. we currently fund R&D for three private space programs, from which we buy the technologies we paid the development costs for. Lets get down to 0 publicly-funded privately-owned space programs before we start picking which grandmothers we need to starve out


That R&D money to private space companies has lead to the biggest advances in space technology in our lifetimes.


And for very small amounts too (compared to the whole mess). Fantastic return (on that little bit, out of the whole mess). Same for medical research.


Yeah, estimates of returns on public science generally are dramatic.


that's great, but it's not an unqualified Good Thing(tm) when we're putting it up against meeting basic needs for people today. We managed to have amazing gains in technology and a functioning state that can care for its citizens in the 60s. Also, this doesn't imply that 3 publicly-funded privately-owned space programs are better than 1 publicly-funded, publicly-owned space program, only that research is good (which was never the issue at hand).


We had significantly less welfare in the 60s. We also had more poverty per capita in the 60s but living standards were rising as a result of technological improvements. Clearly a private space company (spaceX) has dramatically outperformed our public space company at advancing technology, despite being a scrappy startup with a fraction of the funding 20 years ago.


dollar tree seems to have found a new way to do this which may or may not be legal. Everything is priced at "$1.25 unless otherwise marked" but the markings don't actually tell you the price, only that it's not the $1.25 default price. There are price checkers throughout the store, but unless you're stopping and prescanning all of your stuff there's no actual way to know what you'll be paying until you get to the register. My partner is a regular there for cheap craft supplies and has seen what essentially amounts to dynamic pricing there, with the price varying up and down on the same item week by week.


this. marketing speak appears much more frequently in online text, which is what AI is trained on, than it does in normal everyday human speech that AI isn't able to capture and train on en masse yet.
