Not a huge deal and not a surprise. This aims to stop opportunists profiting from dual-purpose items sent to war zones and arming US adversaries, and to maintain domestic supplies that are under stress. https://www.arkansasonline

I don't really care what YT does. I already know they're going to silence meaningful content if their algorithms determine it to be "sad" or "violent". Interestingly, there is much content lost, demonetized, an

I believe there were or are arbitrary pass generator apps that can slap a logo and various data into a custom pass. Alternative solutions to barcodes are RFID/NFCs and geofenced authorization.

Yellow vests protests and Occupy Wall St. are examples of ineffective movements: lacking identification of root causes of problems, lacking specific demands to redress, lacking leaders, or lacking resolve. XR is also sort-of in this camp. T

Commercial, profit-optimizing meat and dairy ag inexorably lead to GMO corn megafarms, CAFOs, and overuse of antibotics bringing the risks of antibiotic resistance, pandemics, climate change, and pollution of air, water, and soil. What is m

TEL is incredibly bad stuff*, but it's rarely used in commercial flight operations as they predominantly use jet aircraft. Leaded avgas is completely unnecessary as non-TEL fuel formulations have been created and certified. The problem

Most problems stem from users conflating for-profit corporations for public commons. Nonprofit co-ops must provide critical infrastructure. Who exactly is this prerogative "freeloader" you throw around so casually? Is there some s

A cynical perspective is also potentially possible: that it's greenwashing to distract from continued FF extraction. Both realities can coexist. Until they make a commitment, timeline, and are excited about measurable progress ending F

TL;DR: Google doesn't have to do a damn thing. Apple won't enter search or social networking because Erik Neuenschwander would poke holes in its privacy and Tim Cook would ask how it would add value. And there's no point in c

Yes. PDE5's are stereotyped as "enabling dirty old men".

There's no mention of it in the abstract. It's probable men who are sexually active also have higher T-levels and are generally in better health. There aren't many other reasons to prescribe PDE5 inhibitors.

I used to live where it was endemic to western black-legged ticks since the 80's, the tiny ones that carry LD. If ticks are that much of a problem there, I would look into the Lyme PrEP clinical trial. LD is nothing to fuck with due to
