This topic is extremely sensationalized. It’s impossible to discern the truth anymore. All we know is he’s a murderer, many of his supposed victims are (were) alive, and had he a mansion with a weird floorplan, which was more likely to defraud investors than it was to kill people. Pulitzer got famous from this.

Old school Runescape

The real issue is that we have a rapidly aging workforce and there’s not enough young people to replace them. With the average age of parents raising, the gap is getting larger. In the 50s it was 16 workers for every 1 retired. The 70s, 5:1. That number is now almost 2:1. This is bad. Very bad.

Higher bar for jobs. Lower wage for entry level. Later retiring age. Higher need for migrant and seasonal workers.

I’m not sure if people are suggesting that oil itself is a magical solution or if they’re suggesting that having exclusive access to an extremely profitable resource (oil) enables a country with a tiny population to make socialism work.

I have a strange feeling that if oil became worthless Norway would quickly stop doing socialism well

Sweden is fairly unique as it’s economy wasn’t destroyed by WWII, and it’s stance on banking, foreign exports, and foreign ownership has enabled it to make massive profits. But the economy is seriously struggling today. The average home loan takes 100 years to pay off.

Finland economy replaces oil with timber and an extremely educated population. Both of which are not sustaining the model well as the country is in recession. The timber industry isnt producing sustainable profits like it used to. The debt-to-GDP ratio is extremely high. The highly educated population is leaving and people don’t typically immigrate to Finland.

So arguably the model isn’t working anymore, without something like oil to fall back on.

It’s a mucus membrane, what else would it be?

I know what Coachella is… take your own advice dipshit

When and where did they claim they were going to be holding a rally at Coachella Festival Grounds? The average person probably doesn’t even realize Coachella is the name of a music festival, let alone a city in California…

Fuck trump either way lol

A known side effect of Ibuprofen (and most NSAIDs) is sweating, so the faster release tabs that aren’t in your system as long and thus clear out faster, dont have that aide effect… maybe

For using msbuild or vsbuild to build C projects.

Can be installed standalone but it’s typically just easier to install the full VS suite because on a shared runner it’s better to include the entire kitchen.

When cocaine usage first exploded, it was almost entirely in “laborers, youths, black people, and the urban underworld”. Most of the early history of its usage is associated with non-whites and lower class peoples. Making it illegal worked for a long time until the cocaine boom happened and then it became popular with disco and rock, but again, still mostly used by non-whites. It wasn’t until crack became a thing that the racial divide became more clear - rich whites got the clean cocaine, everyone else got addicted to crack.

The switch to being heavily used by the rich white class is a “relatively” recent development.

A large foundation for the belief in critical periods for language are based on Genie, a feral child who was entirely unable to learn a spoken language despite significant efforts. Today, she can use some sign language but cannot speak.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genie_(feral_child)

So the answer is largely believed to be: No. You cannot learn a spoken language if you missed the critical period.

It’s also literally impossible to test/study ethically, so nobody actually knows.

Signal does not. https://signal.org/bigbrother/santa-clara-county/

Tl;dr: Signal gave the court timestamps for three out of nine phone numbers that the court demanded data on. The timestamps were the dates three phone numbers last registered their accounts with Signal. That’s it. That is all the data there was to give.

This is why I use Signal. This is why I donate monthly to Signal.

The no-poo (no shampoo) movement is very real and definitely works for many people (dependant on hair type and oil secretions). Basically, once you stop washing away your natural oils daily, the production normalizes and then a regular rinse with water and occasionally something like diluted soap, lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.

I’ve met them, I was one, I know them. You wouldn’t know unless they told you.

Read closer- they are not removing grandfathered rates for 1 and 6 month packages that do not let membership lapse for more than 14 days.

There’s grandfather rates plus bulk discounts!
