It's not just that, it's also the fact they scored the responses based on user feedback, and users tend to give better feedback for more confident, even if wrong, responses.

I know of matrix, what are some other alternatives?

Also a protocol that got falsely maligned during the crypto days was secure scuttlebutt, and people should be talking about it more.

NSAIDs cause crazy increased risk of intestinal bleeding and and it inhibits the ability for the kidneys to excrete uric acid, they also increase the risk of heart attack and stroke.

My point is that comparatively, acetaminophen is (or at least was) the safest drug for light pain.

I haven't seen any new categories of painkiller that would indicate that's no longer the case, though.

I'm confused where this zeitgeist about Tylenol being bad for you is coming from. I remember working in pharmacy that taking Acetaminophen was the least reactive painkiller with the least number of long-term issues, but I'm hearing a lot more people talking about how bad it is for you.

The studies I've seen have been correlative at best, and, considering that NSAIDs and opioid painkillers are far worse over time, I don't understand the dissonance in advice that seems to be appearing.

Is this more "seed oil" nonsense?

Their predicted 2025 revenue is supposedly 5 billion so this is a decent chunk.

Not enough, but a decent chunk.

And then when those AI also have issues do we use the AI to check the AI for the AI?

I know we want to get really riled up and say that he's committed a war crime but presidents have been extra judicially killing drug dealers since Obama put them on the Disposition matrix (the "kill list").

Trump even goes out of his way to call them "narcoterrorists" because the way the law was written when the "war on terror" started (not that he pays that much attention to the law), anyone that has a mild supporting role in Al Qaeda and it's diaspora have open season on them without Congressional oversight in perpetuity.

I want people to understand that this is wrong but also every president has been doing this since 2010

A preponderance of post-ambulation pontificators, if you will.

I imagine it's a continuation of the isolation that social media causes.

edit: looked into this a little more and found This medium article. saying there wasn't much change in the rate of sex weekly for adults in the 90s, and not until the early 2000s when OECD countries started seeing a reduction.

Not sure what to trust but Family Studies is a conservative think-tank so I don't necessarily trust their data either.

I assume a lot of android foss app developers are going to refuse to register and the projects are going to need to be forked.

Personally I'm getting an old feature phone and an ipad mini that only has wifi. If my choice is between apple iOS and google iOS I'd rather just not use anything to do with Google.

These only work with ARM cpus I think

 

Looking for an alternative to tiles.

I realize lowjacking your stuff is kind of against the idea of privacy in the first place, but the convenience of being able to find lost items is big.

Are there any other locators that can use cellular service or just use BLE?
