  • Getting distracted by the ethical dimensions of histoical blame is really a fucking weird move in a discussion that started with “Hitler was right.”

    There's one person in this thread actively advocating for genocide, and it's not either of us.

  • Something about toothpaste makes apples taste really awful.

  • I doubt Hitler had any problems with Zionism if it meant Jews leaving Germany.

    Have I stumbled into an actual anti-semitic shithole here, the kind the ADL is always crying wolf about?

  • Maybe Hitler was right to genocide the jews? What the fuck is wrong with you?

    Most Jews moved all over the world and mostly never to Israel before the holocaust. They weren't that Zionist until the holocaust. Israel, and it's genocidal society, it some kind of CPTSD from what Hitler did. Hitler was absolutely wrong.

  • The true comparison is someone getting into work at 7am to work on a project due for a meeting at 10am and two of those hours are waiting for a mandatory Windows update to install.

    I think they got rid of the mandatory updates, tho, largely because the updates were breaking the OS...

    but anyway, I think the meme might be pointing at the issue of consent.

  • Yup. Motorola should be coming out with a GOS-compatible phone in a year or so. There was a bit of buzz because of local age verification requirements, which GOS dev said fuck you to, but I don't think thatś enough to derail the project since I don't think Motorola ever planned to ship GOS, just make it compatible for users and IT depts to install it---which so far does not violate any laws.

  • Yeah, well, heads up: black people and women consistently get worse medical care (regardless of income) and Nichols was both of those. Women's heart attacks also present differently, but providers are (used to be?) mostly aware of the male presentation.

  • Do wake up in a bathtub filled with ice and stitches over where a kidney used to be?

  • That's the reason protein has always been popular.

    It's even more popular today beause GLPs, the weight loss drug that actually works, cut our caloric intakes so severely we might not get enough protein.

    What you're seeing with all these high-protein foods is a society adjusting to spending their food budget on pharmaceuticals.

  • Honestly, I see UFO stories as just the same imaginative human instinct that brought us saints & demons. They are definitely linked.

  • Tip: Some stores, realiizing you can return a product and re-buy it at the current discounted price, will retroactively price match themselves within the return window.

  • I did mention brain drain in my comment. The US is giving up a huge economic advantage being hostile to immigration. Raising & educating children is hugely expensive and having young educated people come to work a life time (and have more children) is an enormous boon.

  • Thinking of going abroad for dental implants. An oral surgeon said it used to be an issue with poor-quality knock off parts, but that the manufacturing has gotten really good.

    Countries keep cost low by subsidizing doctors' education, by the way, which is even more expensive for them when those doctors cash out to come to the US where doctors graduate with a debt of $250,000 from schools where graduation class size hasn't changed in decades.

    By the by, intensive and indiscrimnate care by specialists--where doctors want to end up instead of low-paid primary care--is definitely more expensive without necessarily leading to better outcomes.

  • Bonus: you save that bottom minge for last that way.

  • Try them before you brush your teeth.

  • Each slice will come with a disposable cryptowrapper that will be used by the toaster to validates the authenticity of the bread within.

    Given the high risk of deaths from house fires caused by toasting unregulated slices of black market bread--maybe inserted by unsuperivsed children--this is the most socially responsible path forward.

  • Re-read my comment?

  • Why does everyone in the world think they can't be racists simply by virtue of not being American?

    I wasn't calling you racist, but do you find that a lot of people do?

    Anyway, this linguistic tendency goes way beyond race; think of how the BBC accent was posh London for the longest time, or how Quebecois are ashamed of their accents, or how Argentines envy continental castellano... it's a race thing only in so much as it's a class thing.
