    The medical fields are more nearly unionized and therefore don’t have the h1b/scab labor used as a lever to erode their job (career?) security problem to quite the same extent. Tec…

    This reminds me of that old-web website that sold human meat. Human depravity no’s no bounds.

    “half of the patients who are treated with cholesterol-lowering drugs stop taking them within a year” Wow, that’s extremely counterintuitive based on everything I’ve heard from act…

    Seems like they are doing this now just to distract from the Tucker/Epstein controversy.

    You probably also would argue smoking cigarettes doesn’t cause cancer? Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Edit: to connect the dots: How mice studies are used Experiments on mice h…

    I believe Fauci knew enough to know that herd immunity wasn’t a real probability when he was on the news talking it up as the way we “return to normalcy”. Will there ever be a publ…

    You have reached a different conclusion than I, viz that Fauci had no way of knowing his comments about herd immunity were potentially misleading, and that the variants were a comp…

    TP-link are definitely the worst of the worst. My cousin insisted they were fine as long as you kept the firmware updated, but then he lost all his bitcoins to hackers. TP-link, ne…

    “name phở could have come from pot-au-feu” Didn’t know that. The French also make consommé which is a very luxurious, very clear beef broth. I prefer Bun Bo Hu, but it’s not as eas…

    Pm2.5 is a specific particle size, yes, we do agree on that. Importantly, it is also a common measurement used in assessing air quality. In that context it is typically composed of…

    pm2.5 is a metric used in assessing air quality. Amino acid aerosols are not a source of air pollution.
